BLAIR's PENSION RECORD.
A Widows Farm Attached to En-
force the Payment of a Fee,

WASHINGTON, July 2}.-In the Senate
to-day Senator Blair made q long per-
sonal explanation in regard to the news
paper charges that come Senator had
charged widow 5000 for getting pen
sion claim through the department.
Mr.. Blair said he had no reason to sup
pose these newspaper reports referred to
him any more than to any other Senator
until he had been told by Senator Cam
den that they did refer to him Mr.
Blair), and were to the effect that
while a member of the House he
had made such charge for
obtaining a pension for widow. Mr..
Blair explained the transaction by saying
that be had before coming TO Congress
obtained the award of the pension in
question, and that the transaction was
concluded by his law partner and the
money collected by the partner alter Mr..
Blair came to Congress. That charge
of 800 (not $200) had been made, but that
the woman refused to pay and has never
paid anything. Mr.. Blair moved that the
matter and all the papers presented by
Mr.. Blair be referred to the Committee on
Privileges and Elections.
WHAT MAKES IT INTERESTING.
Mr.. Kenna remarked that as far as he
knew no one had supposed or intimated
that there was any criminality In the
Senator's action. To be equally frank,
however, he would state that it struck
nim and those who had taken any interest
in the matter that the case presented a
question of much interest IN view of the
wholesale and indiscriminate attacks of
the Senator from New Hampshire upon
the President in connection with his pen
sion vet0es. 1t was perhaps somewhat
Al, do. k,s, haA lDgt h.A
only son in the army and whose husband
was demented should have an attachment
laid upon her little farm for such services
rendered to her. That was regarded as a
matter of some interest. Mr.. Blair s
motion to refer was agreed to.

lie Building Propositions.
WASHINGTON, July 23.-ln the House
to-day, MIR. Morrison, from the Committee
on Rules. reported the resolution ordering
session for tomorrow night for con-
sideration of public building bills.
Messrs. McMilIin and Warner Cot Ohio)
opposed the resolution, thinking 1T OF
doubtful proprIety for the House to order
u session for the passage OF public build
ing bills wheE land grant forfeiture bills
could not obtain consideration.
Mr.. Morrison suggested that when a
member wanted to get away from any par
ticular measure he ran behind the Forfeit
ure bills. The Committee on Public
Lands at the beginning Of the session had
desired to have the rules liked in a cer-
tain manner in order that it might have
the right of wav. This was done, but, not
satisfied, the committee had in season
and out Of sescon demanded another
cnange in the rules. This change had
been made and the committee had been
out OF season ever since. Laugter.
Mr.. Henley, OF California, moved TO re-
commit the resolution with instructions
TO the Committee on Rules 10 report it

tion OF forfeiture bills. This motion was
agreed to by q vote OF 1873 TO SO.

Similarity in the Signatures Gives

WASHINGTON, July 23.-Mr. Vest, in
presenting to the Senate to-day batch of
petitions got up by the Knigts of Labor,
remarked that the signatures all appeared
to be in the same handwriting, and that
he presumed (from the explanation of
MIR. VanWyck a few days ago. that these
were copies.
Mr.. HOar remarked that the rules of
the Senate prevented the presentation Of
any petitions except originals.
The chair sustained the point made by
Mr.. Hoar, but said he did not feel at lib.
erty to reprOach the Senate for presentin &
such petitions, although in doing 30 they
were violating the rules.
Mr.. Vest said he did not propose TO vio-
late any rule OF the Senate, but he did not
wish TO be put in the attitude of opposing
the right OF petition. He now presented
these petitions with statement that IN
his opinion without any personal knOwl-
edge) they were copies. The petitions
were presented.

The California Senators are informed
that the California Legislature does not
propose to elect successor TO Senator
Hearst at the extra session called to con-
slider the irrigation question. Mr.. Ed
munds and other constitutional lawyers
in the Senate hold that if the Legislature
does not elect at the session
next succeeding the appointment
by the Governor TO fill "a vacancy, that the
seat becomes vacant and must remain 80
until the Legislature meets again and
fills it, the Governor having exhausted
his power appointment. The sitting
Senator may, however, they hold, be
allowed 10 retain the seat by courtesy
until the Legislature elects his successor.
