Mr.. Call rose to address the Senate on
the subject of resolutions heretofore Of
fered by him (and reported back ad-
versely from the committee on foreign
relation) authorizing the President
to open negotiations with the Spanish
government for the purpose of inducing
that government to consent to the es-
tablishment of free and independent
republic in Cuba, and the other in rela-

resolution, instructing the committee on
privileges and elections to inquire

that the resolution should be adopted.

for it, and no excuse for it. He had
asked leave of the Senate on the second
of June last to print extracts from the
record in Wind casion of his career in the
Senate, in response to a pamphlet at
tacking him; and that was all he had
done to-day.
The discussion was further partici-
pa.ed in by Messrs. Hoar, German and
Call The latter retorted on Mr.. Ingalls,
by pointing out chow small the man,
how bitter the malevolence, how mean
the character that could find in snch
circumstances the willingness to accuse
another Senator of falsifyiDg the re-
cord"
He went on to say, II should demand
of him that he show the courage of q
man and not the cowardice of q SLAM
derer."
Mr.. Oullom called for the regular or

without action and the Senate proceeded
