THE SENATE.
A Resolution Requiring an In
vestigation of the Method of AL
IOttinC Indian Lands


vestigatiOn of the Method of AL
Iotting Indian Lands.
WASHINGTON, March Sin the SEN
ate to-day, Mr.. Reagan reported adj
versely from the poStoffice and post
roads committee the Edmunds and Gull
Iom telegraph bills and reported favor
ably an original bill to regulate inter-
state commerce carried on by telegraph.
1t is to subject telegraph companies to
the supervision of the interstate COM
merce commission. Mr.. Cullom insisted
this bill should be referred to the inter
state commission. A sharp conflict be-
tween the two committees followed and
the matter finally went over without ac-
ton. Mr.. Chandler offered a resolution
(Which was agreed toy instructing the
select committee On Indian traders to
inquire into the method of allotting lands
in severalty to Indians on Indian reser-
vations in the northern portions of Wis
cOnsin and Minnesota; and as to the
sale of timber on these lands. The un-
finished business, the pension bill, was
laid aside, and the urgent deficiency
bill was taken up for consideration.
Without taking vote, the senate pro-
ceeded to executive business and soon
adjourned.

Worthily. The Immediate difficulty to

between the United States and Great
Britain which has been the questl0
vexata ever since it was concluded, ana
to-day is suffered to interfere with and
seriously embarrass the understand
ing of both countries in the Important
commerce relations and interests Wnlch

it is wholly inadequate, as has been UNI

past two years. am prepared, there.
fore, to meet the authorized agents of
earliest possible day and enter into ne
gotiations for settlement of all differ
ences. Awaiting your reply, am very
truly yours, Il. +. BAYARD.
TUPPER'S ANSWER.
Ottawa, June, 1SS7-My Dear Mr..
Bayard: had great pleasure in re-
ceiving your letter of May 81, evincing
as it does the importance which you at
tach to an amicable adjustment of the
fisheries question and the maintenance
of the cordial commercial relations be-
tween the United States and Canada
under which such vast and mutually
beneficial results have grown up. en-
tirely concur in your statement that we
both seek to attain just and perma-
nent settlement, and that there is but
one way to procure it, and that is by
straightforward treatment on liberal
and statesmanlike plan of the entire
commercial relations of the two cOun-
tries. note particularly your sugges-
lions that as the interests Of Canada
are so Immediately concerned, her
majesty's government should be in
vited to depute Canadian statesman to
negotiate with you mOduS vivendl to
meet present emergencies and also a
permanent plan to avoid all disputes,
and feel no doubt that a negotiation
thus undertaken would greatly increase
the prospects of a satisfactory solution.
/ say this not because [ feel that there
has been any disposition on the part OF
the British government to postpone
Canadian interests to its own, or to re-
tard by needless delay a settlement de-
sired by and advantageous to the people
of Canada and of the United States, but
because l have no doubt that direct per-
sonal communications will save valua-
BILE time and render each side better
able to comprehend the needs and the
position of the other. Yours faithfully,
CHARLES UPPER.

Election Case.

Strike-The Alabama Contested
Election Case.
WASHINGTON. March 5.-Orders
were entered in the house to-day as
signing the 22nd and 24th of March for
the consideration of measures reported
by the committee Oh judiciary on the
Goth and 2Sth of March for the consid-
Grafton of business called up by the
committee on commerce. Mr.. White,
of Indiana, introduced the following
preamble and resolution, which was
referred to the committee on commerce ::
Whereas, There has been inaugu-
rated a great strike on the Chicago, Bur-
lington d Quincy. which, if not speed
lily checked will end in widespread des-
titution and suffering, not only to those
actually engaged in it, but to others
who are not directly connected there
with, yet, nevertheless. are greatly af-
fected by the prolongation and continu-
ance of said strike,
Resolved, That special committee
of five members be appointed by the
| speaker to proceed at once to Chicago
| in relation to said strike, and that they
| be empowered and requested to act as
adjustors between the Chicago, Bur-
| lington & Quincy Railroad company
| and Chief Arthur, and bring about a
settlement of the pending trouble and
differences which will be amicable and
agreeable to both parties, so that the
| strike will terminate.
The house then proceeded to the con-
sideration of the McDuffie-D Davidson,
Alabama, contested election case. Mr..
Maish, of Pennsylvania, opened the
case for the conteStee, and denying the
statement made in the minority report
that the case involved legal question
proceeded to discuss the legal bearings
of the contest, as well as the facts
elected in the testimony, which he con-
tended was utterly insufficient to prove
the allegations of fraud made by the
| contestant. The committee had given
far and thorough consideration to the
| case and the majority had come to the
conclusiorrthat the contestee, David
| son, had clear majority over McDuffie
| of $3.50 votes. Mr.. Lodge. of Massa-
| chusetts, said that the case illustrated
| the advance of civilization in the Fourth
| Alabama district. Instead of reSorting
| to the boOtjack and Saber policy the
| Democrats had reSOrted to fraud upon
! the ballot box in order to overcome the
| Republican majority. There was evil
dence of general fraud throughout the
district, while the poll lists of the
Selma precinct showed that the
''sheeted dead" were made to vote-of
course they voted the Democratic ticket.
He reviewed in detail the testimony
taken in regard to the votes given at the
various precincts to substantiate the
charge of fraud, which he declared was
found to exist wherever it was probed
for. For the good name of congress,
and in the name Of honest elections, he
believed that the house should reject

the sitting member and seat the con-
teStant.
Mr.. Cultivate, of Ohio, congratulated
the Republicans as to the progress they
had made in their doctrine as to what
should be done with the negro vote.
Heretofore they had been satisfied to
assume and declare that the negro vote
belonged to the Republican party and
should be cast for Republican candi
dates. But here they advanced a step
farther and asserted that the negro vote
must be cast for the Republican candi
date, but not for colored Republican.
He referred to the fact the minority re-
port complained that while Turner (the
cOlOred Independent Republican candi-
date) did not receive 100 votes, the re-
turns gave him 2,519 votes. He then
proceeded to speak in support of the
majority report. Mr.. Rowell, of Illinois,
briefly advocated the minority report
and went over till tomorrow, and
the house adjourned.
