FIFTIETH RESI-.
WASHINGTON. October 10, 1883.

The attendance of senators to-day is
larger than might have been anticipated,
there being some thirty of them present
when the journal WAS read.
On motion of Mr. Hoar the first Tues
day 10 December next was fixed for the
consideration Of the Pacific railroad
funding bill
Three vetoed pension bills were laid
before the Senate. One was vetoed on
the ground that the beneficiary having
been a soldiers widow had remarked
and had a husband now living another
because the action of the Pension Bureau
upon her application gives the beneh-
ciary much larger sum than this spe-
cial act, and a third because soldier
upon whose service the claim originated
died from causes not connected with the
army service.
MIR. Teller obtained the floor and the
tariff bill went over till tomorrow. Ad-
journed.

CLEMUNCEAU, who on the second ballot
Tuesday led all the candidates for president
Of the French chamber of deputies, Is "A won.
dcrful man. For years he was sort of an
object Of derision in French politics. He Is n
little man, not at all impressive In appearance,
very dark. and having face covered with
ragged, short rt.cropped beard. His sole attract
i've feature is a broad intellectual forehead.
\ brainy man he undoubtedly is, but not an
orator IN the sense that we Of America under

very industrious worker ana harl student.
thoroughly democratic In all his ideas. almost
communstic In fact and a hatcr Of the Catho-
lie church. He and General Boulnngcr have
about the same views on public qucs.
tiins and both belong To the more radical
element. France is constantly tending
toward II more radical democracy and a wider
separation from all the laws AMI traditions of
Catholicism. Bouanger and Clemenceau are
AT the head of this movement. Recent events
have shown clearly enough that they are both
coming men. Clemcnceau was educated tor
physician, but he never praCticed his pro.
feSsiOn. when young man. about nineteen
years old he came to America and lived a
year or two in New York, where he yet has
personal friends who became greatly attached
to him at that time. one who was particularly
fond of him was Marshall, the wcll'known en-
graver, who made the great steel engraved
portrait of Lincoln. After Clemcnceau rC.
turned 10 Paris Marshall went over there and
remained several years, the friendship being
renewed, While Clemenceau was in New
York he lived very quietly, having but II
very limited allowance from his father. lIe
was in the habit of taking his meals at a Gel.
man restaurant then on BrOdway near where
the Metropolitan Hotel now Is. This was II
| great resort for the BohemianS of New YORK,
and was famous place in its time. Clcm.n.
ccau studied English and finally went over to
connecticut and taught a school. lie fell in
love with one of his pupils and married her.
, she went TO Paris with him, but, like a great

cally lives apart from his wife IN this coun.
