Fiftieth Congress.-First Session.

l. WASHINGTON, May 10.
 SENATE.-Mr. Edmunds offered a resolu- ton to amend the rules to make it the duty of the presiding officer of the Senate whenever any general legislation appears in | general appropriation bill coming from the l House to direct the same to be struck out subject to an appeal from the Senate. Re ferred to the committee on rules.
 The resolution offered by MT. Vest last Monday providing for select committee to examine the questions touching meat and meat products of the United States was taken gp. MT. Cullom suggested the insertion of | the words Ion the part of the Trunk Line I association or the Central Traffic associationp | so as to make it read, 'sWhether there has existed or now exists any combination ! of any kind either on the part of the Trunk Line association or the Central l Traffic association" MT. Vest accepted the modification After long discussion, on motion of MT. Plumb, the resolution was amended so as to Include "other agencies of transportation and with Mr. Culloms amendment the reso- lution was agreed to. The Senate passed th1rty-eiRht bills, including the House bill relating to crimes against the Postofice de- partment as to postal orders, sscond-class mail matter, obscene or offensive postal cards and envelopes, etc., with amendments, and the Senate bill fixing pensions for the loss of one eye, or the sight thereof, at $16 month and proportionately for the loss of both eyes and then proceeded to executive business, and at 4:45 adjourned.
 HoUsE.-The day was consumed in discus- sion of the tariff bill. An exciting incident occurred when MT. Dalzell charged Mr. Scott with various misstatements in his speech and there was quite spat between the two gen. tlemen. MT. Dslze1 reflected on his col leagues treatment of the workingmen in his employ, the point finally turning on whether MT. Scott had ever employed Pinkerton men to protect his property as Carnegie had. MT. Scott hotly denied this and said he would re- sign his seat if it could be proved.
 Mir. Brumm-Does not the gentleman con- tribute towards paying the Coal and Iron po- lice in the coal regionsa
 Mr. Scott-No, sir. You made that charge.
 "And," interrupted MT. Brumm, q am going to prove itl"
 ''I will make you prove it" crid MT. Scott, vehemently. 'tI am going to call you before the bar of the House to make you prove it.n "And I will prove it," shouted Mr. Brumm.
 Tit is false, sir, as hell itselfl" retorted Mr. Scott. The committee then rose and the House at 5:30 took recess until 8 o'clock At the evening session the tariff debate was further continued.
