Car Reed In Washington.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.-Speaker
Reed reached Washington this morning
and appeared at the capitol about IL
O. CLOCK. He went at once to his room
where he remained, seeing no one. 1t
was expected he wonld take his seat in
the chair at the opening of the session,
but he did not, and Speaker Pro tenn.
Burrows called the house to order.
On his way to the capitol the speaker
was warmly greeted by both Republic
cans and Democrats, and received con-
gratulations on all hands. Later in the
day he held sort of impromptu recep-
ton in his rooms at the capitol, many
members calling on him. His reason for
not Immediately taxing the chair was be-
cause he thought it proper that Mr.. Bur-
rows should himself announce the fact
that he (Burrows) had signed number
OF bills which had passed the house.

The Raum Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.-In the Raum
investigation to-day Chairman Morrill,
proceeded TO pass upon the question
raised as to the relevancy of the testi-
mony offered yesterday by Cooper rslat-
ing to the character of the refrigerator
company s stock, and ruled il out.
Flick, majority member, said that
he took the same view regarding the
testimony as irrelevant at this time, aud
without relation to the investig alton.
Lewis, minority member, entered his
protest against the narrow Limitation =,
holding that the character of the stock
was one of the counts of the indictment,
but by party vote the chairman g ruling
was sustained.
To Commissioner Raum, Chief Clerk
Bryant Isaid that while there had been
a larger output of claims under the
new order than before, there had been
greater haste in the preparation of cases
and much rivalry between clerks. He
did not say that the work was improperly
done, but had called attention to the
fact that some examiners were disposing
of claims in less time than they could be
properly considered.
The commissioner wished to know
whether the witness had tried to put
stop to tiff II was not part OF his re-
sponsibility as assistant chief to do so.
The witness replied that he had not
thought of putting q stop to it. Thirty
five thousand cases put on the completed
files by the office had been selected with
out partially.
At this point Mr.. Cooper thought it was
proper that the committee should pass
upon his resolution. Referred to it to
extend the scope of investigation.
No decision was made, and the COM
mittee adjourned.

Special TO the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Sept. I0.-Speaker
Reed returned to Washington to-day and
this morning he walked down Pennsyl-
vania avenue to the capitol. Along the
the entire route he was saluted by ad-
mirers who took off their hats to him.
The presiding officers desk of the house
was covered with flowers and flags in
honor of his victory, and his Republican
friends intended giving him q rousing re-
ception in the house, but he did not make
his appearance in the hall to-day, being
too busy answering letters and tele-
grams.

How the Tariff Bill VIII be Disposed of.

How the Tariff Bill VIII be Disposed of.
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 10.-The tariff
bill having been passed by the senate, a
good deal of speculation is being in
duiged in here as to what course will be
adopted in the house, as to whether it
will be referred to committee of con-
ference or whether it will be taken up by
the house for consideration of senate
amendments seriatim. Heretofore, ii
has been supposed that, as matter of
course, the bill would be referred to a
committee of conference for settlement
of the differences between the two
houses, but it is said Speaker Reed
is inclined to the opinion that the better
way to consider this measure would be to
take it up and act upon
THE SENATE AMENDMENTS,
item by item, and dispose of the bill in
that way. The argument in favor of the
latter method is that time would be
saved in the aggregate by SO doing, be-
cause if the disagreeing votes of the two
hous were referred to a committee of
conference it Is estimated that at least
five or six days would be consumed in
arriving at an agreement and a report
by the conferees, and then sew
eral days more would be con-
sumed in both houses in disposing
of the conference report. If the bill
were taken up now for consideration of
the senate amendments 1t is calculated
that it would be disposed of within
ABOUT FOUR DAYS.
Those who insist that the latter plan
will be adopted, assume the house will
adopt all of the senate amendments, and
that therefore it will not be necessary to
send the bill back to the senate for action
at all. This at first blush seems quite
improbable, and yet there are many
here who believe that such a result
can be attained. The differences that
exist between the two houses are not of
an irrsconcilable character, and the Re-
publicans in the house, it is claimed,
would not seriously antagonHe any of
the senate amendments. The amend
ments of-the senate are 464 in number.
Many of them, however, are OF
MERE VERBAL CHARACTER.
The material amendments upon which
any considerable contest might be made
are comparatively few in number, and it
is said that none of them are of char
eeter to excite serious hostility in the

house. But it is probable the course taken
will be to refer the bill to- morrow, when it
ls read in the house to the ways and
means committee, and that committee
will soon afterward report it back to the
house with recommendation that the
house concur in certain amendments
and recede from Its disagreement to
others, and the remaining subjects of
disagreement shall be referred to con-
ference committees as requested by the
senate

SENATOR GEORGE ON SUFFRAGE
A Speech that May Decide the Action
OF the Convention.

A Speech that May Decide the Action
OF the Convention.
JACKSON, MISS, Sept. 16-The event of
the day in the constitutional convention was
the speech of Senator George. Predictions
are free tonight that his speech so in
huenced the convention as to cause the suf-
frage report to be adopted by a majority of
thirty. In the course of his remarks the
senator denounced as untrue the reports
that the elections In Mississippi since 1875
had been carried by force and fraud. He
admitted that there were cases Of that de-
scription here and there brought about by
peculiar circumstances, but these were only
exceptions TO the general rule of fair and
peaceable elections.
RIGHTS OF THE NEGRO.
He further declared that he conceded to
the negro the same right to life and liberty
and property that the white man enjoys,
but he denied that the negro lad right to
destroy the civilization of Mississippi, and
that right he was unwilling to accord him.
The speaker then reviewed the committee
report on suffrage section by section, and
closed by appealing to the convention to
save Mississippi, to rise above local or per
sonal prejudices. and consider the question
presented in a spirit of patriotism.
THE DoRTCH LAW DENOUNCED.
The next speaker, Mr.. Ford, a delegate
from the state at large, opposed the Dortch
law and all property qualifications.
Gen. w. T. Martin of Adams county
made a fierce attack upon the committee re-
port, denouncing it as a makeshift and only
of temporary benefit. He favored both an
educational and property qualification as
the only efficient remedy for the suffrage
evil complained of, and characterized all
milder measures as the outcome of moral
cowardice
