clared that no Secretary of State had

tries. Mr.. Bayard's success, he said, In
securing an honorable adjustment OF q
long standing controversy, which his Re
publican precedecessors had been unable 70
secure, had, in part at least, inspired these
assaults. When Mr.. Salisbury finished his
speech, the fisheries treaty went over with

be any Increase in the number OF plate
printing machines in the bureau, led TO
considerable discussion.
/ Haxvlau in nnf,pSlnD the commit
| tees amendment said he did not believe
the best work in plate printing could be
done by machinery. No work OF art could
be done by machine.
Mr.. Allison said the committee had had
plate printers before it, who said bank
notes could be properly printed by ma,
chinery. So they opposed the commit
tees amendment. Whine on the other
hand, Mr.. Graves, the superintendent oi
the bureau, wanted to use more machines
The committee he said, finally concluded

rejected.
