SENATE.
WAsHIsaroN. March 2. Among tn
petitions presented in the Senate to-da.
was one by Hoar, from the workmel
empIoyed in the government workshop
since the eight hour law OF 1868 wa
passed. praying that compensation TO
overtime be given them, or the refer
ence of their claims to some tribuna
that may adjudicate the question AM
determine whether they ought to hav
such compensation. Hoar said he ia
yored the request of the petitioners
He believed the object Of the eight-hou
law WINS TO test the soundness Of al
economic law affirmed by the working
men of this country.
Van Wyck, from the COMMITTEES OF
Pensions, reported with amendment th'
House bill to increase the pensions o
widows and dependent relatives of de
ceased soldiers and sailors. The amend
ment provides for the increase of pen
sions Of minor children fr,m 81 month
the amount fixed by the House. to S4 {
month. Van Wyck said he would ask
an early consideration OF the bill. hnd
would ask the Senate to increase mi
nor children's pension to So month, in.
stead of 81, MS recommended by the
committee. He would ask, also, thai
insane or helpless children should re-
ceiye the pension given to minor children
beyond Is years of age, so long as disa'
bility or insanity continue.
Logan hoped it would soon be taken
up and that it would be passed. He
thought. however, that it would be bet
ter that the points suggested by Van
Wyck. some Of which Logan fancied,
should be Incorporated into the Senate
instead of encumbering the House bill
Logan also expressed the hope that the
Arrears of Pensions bill introduced by
the Senator from Kansas Qngalls) wozld
shortly be reported and passed.
Van Wyck thought the amendment
proposed were directly in the line of the
bill Just reported, and should be incor-
porated into that bill. He also said
that Congress ought to have passed at
the last session the bill granting PEN
sions to Mexican soldiers.
The bill reported by Van Wyck was
placed on the calendar.
At o'clock the Senate took up the
Education bill and Call addressed the
Senate in opposition to Allison's amend
ment. He characterized it as q refiec-
ton on the States, and the abandonment
Of one Of the principles Of our govern.

Mr.. Salisbury opposed the bill wheth.
er with or without the Allison amend
ment.

to be distributed we should throw aboat
it all the safeguards possible. This bill.

be applied to non-sectarian schools. He
then read from speech delivered by
Mr.. Zach Montgomery before Roman
Catholic Sunday School Teachers Of
California, in 1873. Mr.. Ingalls, would
do Mr.. Montgomery the justice to say
that he had declared that the pamphlet

would read certain extracts which Mr..
Montgomery had not included
