The Senate Talks Politics, Gets in Bad Hum
or, and Adjourns Till Monday.
WASHINGTON. Oct AIR. Chandler offered
a resolution. which was laid over till tomorrow,
directing the Attorney general to inform the
Senate whether or not, during the present year.
there has come TO the knowledge Of the Depart.
msnt Of Justice any violation Of the eleventh
and fourteenth sections of the civil-service law
of 1883, and, IL SO. whether any prosecutions
have been instituted to punish such violations.
The Senate at half past IL resumed coDsidera-
ton Of Mr.. HAleis resolution on General Benets
circular as to discharges from arsonals and
armories, aud Mr.. Teller opened the discussion
upon it. He thought it o very grave misfortune
that vast sums of money were collected, or were
necessary, for the purpose OF carrying
on political campaigns. If the issue of
the presidential election depended on money,
the Republican party might IS well surrender
now a. at any time. With nearly 500, DOC, 900 Of
the public money now 10 banks. insssad of being
in circulation, or instead of having been used in
payment Of the debt, il was easy for the Demo
cratic national committee to cali upon those poo
pie who we're plrndering the government in that
way for their contributions, and they would
hardly say nav when the retention Of this
money-for which they paid no interest-de-
pended on the good will of o Democratic Score
tary Of the Treasury. who, it was said. had him

and OF whom il was said, whether truthfully or
not, that his nearest relatives had contributed
twice as much
Mr.. Salisbury thought such q debate on such a
resolution diereputable to the Senate. IL be had
the power he would repeal the civil-service stat
ute aud revoke every order made under 10. He
characterized the attacks upon the President as
an attempt TO clip bis wings in the vain hope of
preventing his flying over the field next Novem-
Der, and be declared that Mr.. Cleveland would
live in the history of his country long after his
trsducers were forgotten.
Mr.. Stewart said that he had como to the con-
c,usion that the civil service law was a bad one.
and that it ought TO be repealed. 1t was a law
to promote duplicity aud lying; a law the very
execution of which would breed a race of rascals.
The resolution was then agreed to without d.
version.
The Senate bill relating to the classification
Of postofices and amendatorv of the act Of
March 3, 1883, TO adjust the salaries of post
masters, amended 60 as to take effect July i,
1888. was passed.
Mr.. Chambers resolution for an inquiry into
the recent Louisiana election was then taken no,
and Mr.. Blair spoke upon il, and, in connection
with il. argued in favor OF his educational bill.
The resolution went over till Monday, and the
majority and minority reports on the tariff bill,
as we'll as Mr.. Beck's views, were presented and
ordered printed.
A further conference was ordered on the do.

After an executive session, the Senate ad.
journed till Monday.

BENET'S

The Senate Adopts the Resolution Ordering
an Inquiry as to It's Issuance.
6ecisi TO the Indianapolis journal
WASHINGTON. Oct AFTER a couple moro
hours Of sharp debate in the Senate, this after
noon, the resolution introduced by Mr.. Hale.
calling upon the Secretary Of War for informa-
ton relative to the issuance Of the Infamous
''Benet circular ORDER" was adopted. The
amendments proposed yesterday by Mr.. Hale,
asking the Secretary Of War for information
concerning the issuance Of other orders of SINH
lar character. was adopted. Senator Hoar sug-
eested an amendment. which WAS also adopted,
and which 10 important if it will DO
frankly answered. It requests the Sec
rotary Of Wa to state, in answering
tho resolution. "Wbst measures have been
taken by the War Department to learn the po-
litical opinion of the women and children in its
employ" Secretary Eudicott will probably de-
lay his answer to this resolution, with . view to
evAdine an investigation before the election. Il
is conceded that Congress will adjourn within
ten days or two weeks, and if the report is held
back that long it may defeat the purpose Of Mr..
Hale in securing authority from the Senate to
institute an investigation Of the recent
order. It is probable, however, that in event
there is any delay in answering this
resolution, Mr.. Hale will ask authority to
proc.ed with the investigation, and that
1t will be bad during the recess Of Congress and
before the November election.
Senator Teller, of Colorado, opened the de-
bate to-day by sharply and effectively arraisn-
ing the hypocriticai professions of President
Cleveland and his assistants in the matter Of
civil service reform. He held the whole lot up
to ridicule and scorn, and showed that they
were not only not civil-service reformers. but
they had themselves violated the letter and the
spirit of the civil-service law, and that the
whole federal service was now being ransacked
and pillaeed for political purposes. He said
that il was the most disgraceful proceeding in
the history of the country,
Mr.. Salisbury, of Delaware, whe Is one of the
old Democrats Senator'S, declared that the
object of the resolution was TO provoke q TRADE
against the administration and the people of tho
South: that il was disreputsble proceeding. and
that il was simply intended TO catch votes in the
impending campaign. Mr.. salisbury said there
had been removals of Republicans from the fed
eral service. but that there ought TO have been
many more. He repeatedly Endorsed the circu-
lar, and had no words of censure for the whole
sale dismissal OF women aud children, the
widows and orphans of ex-Union soldiers and
sailora.

Hon. John M. Butler at Wabash.

Special to the Indianapons Journal
WABASH. Oct. 4-Hon. John NJ. Butler,
of indianapolis, made a magnificent Republican
speech here tonight, and was greeted by a splen-
did audience. The speakers exposition Of the
tariff and protective question was the best ever
heard here. The Mills bill was discussed, and
all its sectional features show up. The speaker
declared that the Democracy lie trying to run the
pension bureau as a political machine, and that
the platform of the party has not one word for
the soldier, but much about what has been paid
for pensions. That party declares for a free
ballot and q fair count. and in Ohio, Illinois and
Indiana are dearly beloved Democratic bosses
wearing stripes without the stars and doing
service for their States on stone piles. The
Indiana convicts are assured that the Demo-
cratic party is at their back and will do all it
can for them. The Democratic party promised
TO revive respect for Law, and there never was a
time when there was such q general disregard
for Law as now. The Democracy in Indiana
will lose votes this year because it failed TO turn
