What is that, said Harris.
"a nomination"
Sberman's breath seemed to have

Blackburn begged the pardon of the
chair.

on the floor of the Senate. The matter
vent over in Logan's absence.
The Iowa land grant forfeiture bill
was taken up.
The amendment offered by Mcmillan,
Yesterday, was rejected after some de-
bate
The Chair laid before the Senate a
letter from the Sergeant-at-Arms,
transmitting a list of such of the pri-
vate secretaries of Senators as had not
been reported to the Senate in accord
ance with the recent resolutions. The
hitter was read.
Riddleberger called for the reading OF
the list also, and it was read. He then
called up the Eads matter and said he
found in the Record a letter from Eads
addressed to the Senator from Illinois,
logan. He would like 10 know how
the Senator got the letter into the
ncOrd.
Logan said he had nothing to do with
.sIting IL into the Pec0rd
Riddleberger said he could load down
the Record with letters criticising SEN
aors. especially during the Presidential
campaign, but he had not done it.
Eads could not charge him (Riddle-
erger) with falsehood and put it in
he Confessional Record, but a Senator
could take Eads' letter and make it part
Of his own remarks, and as the letter
appeared in connection with Logan's
remarks. he (Riddlehergerl felt to
answer il as such.
Logan was astounded that Riddle
berger should say that he Uogan)
charged him with anything. He had
merely presented the letter OF a re-
spectacle citizen of the United States.
Rlddleberger said he would always
resent lmputations such as were CON
tanned IN that letter. He was not so
great soldier as the Senator from ILL
oS' but he would yet discover and un-
over the conspiracy to make the
United States government endorse for
2aS ship Canal Company. We all
NOV, be said, that ex-Secretary
hmdom was at the head of that com
pay.
Logan, at the suggestion of several
senator's, modified his resolution so as
10 provide for the reference of Eads'
-etier to the committee on commerce.
Addleoerger said he would decline
~, appear before any committee.
nIsI he had to say would be said to
.le senate, and in open session. He did
lOl believe in this Senate becoming
more English than TIE House of Lords. |
