Chairman Randall of the appropriations
committee, was defeated by the public lands

feiiing 5000 acres of the Onton igon mich

In detailing the circumstances of the grant.
Mr. Payson declared that trGm the org.nzi-
tlon OF the Ontouogsn L Brule River Com
pany no step had ever been taken by II, which
had indicated thar that organiz alton had been
purely speculative ami effected for the pur-
pose OF getting land from the general govern

like camel and backed like a whale; a sec.
ton OF mile in length showed but one
railroad lie, while a 250 foot cut was shown
as being filled with logs and brush.
The bill was passed without division
The House then went into committee of
OF the whole, Mr.. Hammond of Georgia iu
IN the chair, on the sundry civil appropriation
bill.
Mr.. Herbert OF Alabama said that while
the sundry bill appropriated less than the bill
OF last year, the decrease was attributable to
the tact that the committee on appropriations
had surrendered jurisdiction over the items
for navy yards and the new naval observa-
tory, Maintaining that those items could be
provided for In the regular naval appropria-
ton bill, which wouli then, instead of show
ing decrease, exceed in amount the appro-
priations of the bill of last year.
Mr.. Randall of Pennsylvania argued that
the naval committee had pro. .er jurisdiction
over the subject of navy yards, but pointed
out that. even were they ever provided for in
the pending measure, the bill would still
carry less money than that of last year.
Pending further discussion, the committee
rose, and the House at 3 o'clock adjourned,

Speaking of the nomination of Charles B.

Senator Frye is quoted as saving to a local

There is some opposition 70 him among the
ship owners and builders of Maine. know,
for have received letters from some of them
to that & effect" "Political opposition p

senator, "all the ship owners uf Maine are

great importance. lie will have the decision

want Morton, or are content with him, have
no obi ec.ion. Ii is not that want this or
that in connection with the 1ffice, except that
do want a commissioner who is in favor of
the revival of American commerce. and who
will labor to bring it about. The appointment
was surprise to me, though | suppose it
grows out of the Presidents refusal to ap-
point Morton postmaster at Augusta. The
President told me last session that he intend

intimate what he should give him"
Senator FRYE added that in this matter he
would erdeavor 10 comply with the wishes
of his constituents; that, in response to let
lers he had written, committee of the SEN
ate would have to have some grounds other
than those of political nature in order to
recommed rejection Of nomination.
