WASHINGTON, Feb. l3, 1888.
Last Thursday was a field day
IN the Senate. 1t had been an
that Senntor Kgnna, Of
West Virglnia, woald reply to
the recent tariff speech of Senator
Sherman. The galleries were
crowded with hundreds who were
eager 10 hear the discussion Of the
most vital issue OF the time.
Senator Kcnnl's defense Of tho
Presidents famous message was
mastery and convincing, and the
Democratic position on the tariff
was sci forth IN fine style, while
the alleged argn meuts Of Senator
Sherman were completely demol-
ished.
Replying to The Ohio S nator's
clam thlt a Treasury surplus was
preferable to deficit, Mr.. Kenna
cited the fact that four success
sive Secretaries Of the Treasury
two Republican and two Dem
ocratic-ad two Presidents.
Arthur ana Clcyeland-had agreed
- condemning surplus revenue
and il demanding a reduction Of
taxation. THIS argument was
unanswerabic.

Some newspapers throughout
the country have been conf0und-
ing Senator Hoar's inauguration

measure. Tie joint resolution
which passed the Senate was
simply this: The term of Office
Of the President and Of The
fiftIrth Congress shall continue
until The last Tuesday Of April, IL
the year 1889, at noon. The
Senators whose term wOuld
otherwise expire on the fourth day
OF March, in tbs year 1880, or
thereafter, shall continue in Office
until mon of the last Tuesday in
April succeeding such expiration;
and the last Tuesday OF April, at
noon, shall thereafter be substitute

Loungers and passers-by in the vi

startled yesterday afternoon about
A 80 o'clock by a pistol-shot at the
rear of the premises, followed by an
other report few seconds afterwards.
Officer Donahue, who was patrolling
his beat near by, was soon on the
scene and ere many minutes was
joined by number of other officials
and reporters, anxious to ascertain
the disturbance. No one knew, how
ever. who had fred the shots and it
was impossible to exactly locate the
spot from whence the sound had
proceeded as it was from the small
courtyard at the back Of the saloon,
and no one happened to be there at
the time. A search was made in the
surrounding buildings, but no success
full results occurred, in spite of the
efforts OF Detective Harris and a num-
Der OF policemen and eonstables. 1t

This Cfty.
To-day st. Patrick's Day will be
cele brated in grand style with pro-
cession, literary exercises and ban

which will denote their sympathy
with the celebration. Every person
who in any way owes allegiance to
the Patron Saint Of Ireland, will join
in the movement to do honor to his
memory, and this afternoon it is ex-
pected that one of the largest process
sions ever witnessed in this city will
march through the streets. The
route adopted for the process
sion, which will leave Downey

along Main to Olivera, to Alameda
to the Sisters School, to Also, along
Also to Los Angeles, to Commercial,

The literary exercises will be held in
Armory Hall, which will be araped

In the evening banquet will be
held at Opera House Hall, and at this
there will be flow of wit which even
the excellence of the viands cannot
stop. This will commence at hall

BLAND BALKS BIG BILLS.
HE THINKS THE TREASURY Is MIS-
TAKEN FOR A GRAB BAG.

Objections Made to the Erection of a
Building Anywhere Where One can
be Rented for Less than $4,000 per
Year-The Blair Bill also Given a Left
Handed Blow.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-In the House to-
day the floor was accorded, in committees
of the whole to the Committee ON Public
Buildings and Grounds. The first bill called
up was one appropriating $4,000 addi-
tional for the public building at Chatta-
nooga, Tenn.
Mr. Bland renewed his opposition to what
he considered n loose method of dealing
with public buildings matters, and finally
offered an amendment providing that no
public building shall hereafter be con
structed unless some one of the executive
department shall first certify to Congress
that no suitable accommodation for the SER
vice of the government can be obtained in
the city or town specified, at a less rental
than $1,000 a year. The amendment was
ruled out of order, and the bill was agreed
to.
BRANCHING OFF ON THE TARIFF.
Upon the next bin, appropriating $3.50, 900
for the purchase of a site for public build
ing at Buffalo, N. Y, Mr.. Bland took occa-
sion to renew his attacks upon the tariff
and to advocate the reduction of the sur
plus by the payment of the bonded debt.
He appealed to the House to cease to waste
money on these public buildings and to
come down to the Democratic doctrine of
economy and reduction of taxation.
DENOUNCED THE BLAIR BILL.
i :
reference which was received with applause
on the Democratic side, and as a Democrat
denounced every attempt to take the peo-
pies money from the Treasury by the Blair
educational bill, public building measures
and other squandering propositions.
Mr. Dibble suggested that the gentleman
from Missouri (Alr. Bland, by his course of
action in regard to public building meas
ures, was violating the spirit of the resolu-
ton making those measures a special order.
SHAME AND SCANDAL.
Mr. Bland replied that he would not per-
NIT handful of men to sweep these bills
through III shame and scandal, but he would
avail himself of his constitutional right to
require quorum to vote on every PROPOSE
ton.
Mr. Cowles, of North Carolina, wishing
to ask Mr.. Dbble question, an announce
ment by the Chair that the gentleman
from North Carolina desires to ask the gen
tleman from South Carolina a question, T."
gave rise to much laughter and changes
were rung on the character and spirit of
the question to be propounded.'
The next bill was the Senate bill appro-
priating 81, 600 for a building at Omaha,
Nebraska, with a proposed substitute ap-
preparation of S500,000 for the purchase of
a site, but making no appropriation for a
building.
Mr.. Bland, by offering numerous amend
ments, prevented a vo te being taken on the
bills; and the committee having risen, the
House, without action ON the bills reported,
at $40 o'clock adjourned.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Senate COM
mittee on rules acted favorably to-day on
Senator Blackburn's resolution to make it
not in order for the Senate Committee on
Appropriations 10 report back any appro-
priation bill except the urgent deficiency
bin within five days after its receipt from
the House of Representatives The original
resolution said 10 days, but the committee
amended it.
This is a notification to the House
of Representatives that the Senate will not
hereafter consent to adjournment sine die
until it can see its way clear to the oppor-
tunity of at least five days within which to
consider appropriation bills. In the last
session three important bills reached the
Senate for the first time within two days of
final adjournment.
A CHECK ON ELOQUENCE.
The committee also agreed to so amend
the rules that no debate on remarks shall
be in order on the presentation of petitions
or memorials.
The Platt resolution for open executive
sessions was talked over for an
hour without definite result. 1t
was developed that majority of
tho committee. namely Senators Aldrich,
Sherman and Blackburn are at least in fa-
vor Of some modification of the rules, both
with respect to treaties and nominations.
Another meeting will be called soon to con-
slider the matter further.
