Th E Appropriation Bnls.

Washington, June 16-The senate to-
day passed the pension and military
academy appropriation bills which dis
posed of all the BILLS of this character
received from the Aouse. Mr.. Allison
directed attention to the fact that but
two weeks of the current fiscal year re.
NAMED, yet Eve OF the most important
appropriation bills were still awaiting
action in the house. The passage of the
legislative bill by tho house to-day
leaves the sundry civil, naval, general
deficiency and fortlication pills
yet to be completed by
that body. Those departments
for which no provision is made can OBJ.
tain no money after June 20, as the stat.
utes make it penal offence to make the
government liable Tor any pecuniary obi.
cations In advance of specific appropri.
atoms. MI. Allison charged this defcien.
cy upon the houss OF representatives.
The legislative bill, as it passed tho
house, will not fetch to that body the
grateful blessings of the new democrat
10 officials, for several Of them find
that economy, however much it may re-
dound to the credit of the great dem
ocrstic party, is a mighty unpleasant
thing. The law fixes the salaries OF
Commissioners Black, Of the pension
office, and Montgomery, Of the
patent office, at $4,000 and $4,5C0,
respectively; but the past year or two
they havebeen getting $4,000 through
the grace of appropriation committees.
To-day the point of order new legisla-
ton was raised and the salaries of both
gentlemen had to come down to the re.
Yised statute limits.

CONSOLIDATION of surveys districts.

Washington, June l6-In ccnsidera-
ton Of the legislative bill to-day the
house reached the section referring TO
surveyor generals for the states and
territories. Gilfllan made a point of
order against the paragraph CONSOLE
dating the districts of Minnesota Hnd
Dakota under one surveyor general,
that it was new legislation. In this the
chair sustained him and the %consoiida-
tion was dissolved. Mr.. Gilfllan said
he did this because the state OF Mime
sofa contained yet eleven or twelve
million acres of nnsurveyed land, and
he thought it ought to retain its OWL
surveyor general. Randall was o little
ratified by the haste with which Gill
%iillan's point of order vas disposed of,
but drew attention to the fact that ii
this dissolution was allowed no approp-
ration for the surveyor general OF
Minnesota had been made. Gilfllan
Immediately proposed an amendment
appropriating $4,000 for the salary OF
the surveyor general, $4,000 for clerk
hire and $1,000 for incidental expenses,
Randall became angry and said the
secretary of the interior only called for
$500 for clerk hire, $4,000 should not
be appropriated. Gulfllan said that he
had taken the appropriation for last
year for his model, but was willing to
take the estimates of the secretary in
place of those in his amendment. He
then proposed that the salary should be
So, 200, clerk hire $4,000, and incidental
expenses $1,000. Randall said: "You
have got the salary too high. 1t should
only be $780," Gilillan replied that
the law fixed the salary at $4,000, al
though it had bsen cut to $500 the
past few years. Randall pressed the
matter, however, and to a v his amend.
ment, which had been nee voted on
Gil6llan gave way and the salary was
fixed at $I.s00. Payson, of Illinois, then
offered an amendment consolidating
Nebraska apd Dakota into a district with
one surveyor general with o salary Of
$1,S00 per year. AS no Nebraska Nom
Der made q point of order against the
amendment, it was adopted and went
through,

Mr.. Wise, of Virginia, regretted that
the gentleman from Alabama,
Mr.. Wheeler had furnished
the gentleman from lowe. Mr.. Hepburn,
with an opportunity to fight oyer again
the issue of 1851. BE only wished to
remark to the gentleman from Iowa,
who had caught many occasions to make
filings at the south, that brave and
honorable men never struck q PROSTATE
foe. He did not know what part the
gentlemen took in the uuion army,
except as he found it given in the con-
greasional directory, but one thing was
certain, the gentleman bore on his body
no proofs that he hid ever led o desper-
ate charge and he did not think, from
the gentlsman's conduct here, 1T was
likely he ever would.
Mr.. Henderson, of Iowa: My col
league may bear no scars, but no soldier
who vent from Iowa was more ct the
front than he.
Mr.. Vice: l take his history, as
written by himself, and. certainly his
biographer was partial.
Mr. Wise then proceeded to speak to
the bill and earnestly impressed upon
the majority the propriety and neces-
sity for a rehabilitation of the navy.

The senste rejected the nomination OF
James G. Shields, of Michigan, to be
chief justice of Arizona, His predeces-
sor was Sumner Howard, formerly dis
trict attorney in Utah, who achieved
considerable reputation by the prosecu-
ton OF John D. Les, chief of the Dan
ties, for his connection with the Noun.
tain Meadow massacre. The removal of
Howard, it is alleged, was brought about
by Mormon influence, and the rejection
of Shields ID intended to be q rebuke to
the president for permitting Howard to
be punished for his activity against
Normonism. Furthermore, all the bar
of Arizona ia united in charging Shields
with utter Incompetence for the office.
There was no objection to the rejection
of Shields. .

Charged with a TerribIe Crime


Chicago, June 1.-THE coroner's jury
which has been Investigating the Canal
street tenement house fire of June 9TH,
in which eight persons were s~uffocated
and q little child SO injured that it has
since died, finished its labors this after
noon and held Charles Reilly to the
grand jury. 1t will be remembered
that an effort was made to fasten
the crime on Thos. Durkin, husband
Of one and father of another of the
victims. A letter addressed to Mr..
Raleigh, an occupant OF the first floor,
signed Thos. Durkln, proved a complete
alibi, and IN expert testified that Chas.
Reilly wrote the letter. The verdict was
that the victims came to their death by
suffocation; that the fire was the result
of a conspiracy; that while the jury
found 1t impossible to tell how many
were in the conspiracy, they recommend
that Chas. Reilly be held to await the
action OF the grand jury.
