SECRETARY Hazard Complains.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Secretary
Bayard complains that the Republican
Senate, from the very outset Of the Ad-
ministration, has placed obstacles in his
way whenever he has attempted to in
stitute vigorous or dignifled policy.
He thinks the Republicans in the upper
branch of Congress are unpatriotic, and
that they have of late been begging the
question on every hand. The Secretary
declares that the very fact that the
foreign government knew our Senate
was at loggerheads with the Admins
tration. and nothing could be done ex-
cept with the aid of the Senate, has lad
q marked influence against us.
