SENATORS FUSS.
Plumb Attempts to Fry Frye When
the Presiding Officer Says
THAT PLUMB IS OFF HIS PLUMB
And Must Desist-Sixteen Bridge Bills
Passed and the Calendar Proceeded With
-Sanderson Argues on the Rail-
road Grant Bill.

WASHINGTON, Sept 16-The Senate
the first thing yesterday took up and
passed sixteen bills on the calendar,
after slightly bitter exchange of cour-
tesies between Senator Frye and Mr..
Plumb, the latter saying that while the
Senator from Maine was "off fishing"
he (Mr Plumb) was at work, and that
now the Senator had come back with
his face all Drowned from his contact
with nature and was insisting that moth
ing should be done at all except accord
ing to his own notion" and Mr.. Frye
resenting Mr.. Plumb's remarks and say
ing that in ten months he had been abb
sent exactly fourteen days and had not
missed a roll call since June 2.
THE Senator has been absent just
fourteen times as much as have been, !"
was Mr.. Plumb's next remark.
ST have not been absent" said Mr..
Frye, 'from as many roll calls as the
Senator from Kansas"
Mr.. Plumb rejoined: 81 am not going
to get into squabble with the Senator
from Maine"
Mr.. Frye retorted: 'SThen why did
the Senator from Kansas make the re-
mark he did?"
Mr.. Plumb answered: because 1t
was literally true"
The Presiding Officer (Mr. Ingalls)
interposed with the remark that such
colloquies were liable to degenerate into
personal alterations.
All the bridge bills having been dis
posed Of the Senate proceeded to the
consideration Of bills on the calendar
| to which there was no objection, and
the following, among others, were
passed: The Senate bill to amend the
| act of June 10, 1873 to create an auditor
of railroad accounts and requiring all
subsidized railroad companies to trans
| NIT to the Commissioner of Railroads
| duplicates of all bills for services
in the transportation of passengers
or freight the carrying of mails, ex-
press, or for any service whatever rem
dered for or on behalf of the United
| States, the Commissioner to forward
these bills to the proper accounting Of
| ficers with such recommendations rs he
might see fit to make, and such officers
to report their action thereon to the
Commissioner of Railroads; the Senate
bill for the relief of certain officers and
enlisted men of the First Kansas col
ored volunteers.
Mr.. Sanderson resumed his argument
on the Railroad Grant bill. He said
that when he concluded last Friday he
maintained that the railroad companies
within their respective grants were not
the owners of the mineral land on the
odd numbered sections and that those
lands were in no peril unless the peril
should arise out of the provisions of the
first section of the act of March 8, 1887.
After remarks by Messrs. Plumb and
Morgan it was agreed that the vote on
the conference report should be taken
at two o'clock and then the Senate ad.

MONEY TIGHT.
Dun's Idea Of It's Effect on
Trade.
THE SCARE LARGELY UNNECESSARY.
The Treasury Ready to Help the Distressed
business Outside the Financial Feature
Active With Good Prospects
Failures Decrease.

New YORK, Sept 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co. s weekly review of trade says:
The past week has justified those who
gave warning that the monetary ease
caused by Treasury disbursements could
be but temporary. The market here
has been tight with extreme rates paid
in some cases. At Boston and Phila-
delphia monetary pressure also affects
business; at Chicago the market Is
somewhat frmer and the demand act
i've; at St Louis it is stiff at to per
cent; at Kansas City more firm; at
Omaha trife close, but fairly supplied;
at Milwaukee very active and to some
extent disturbed by a large lumber
failure in the interior; at Detroit the
demand is strong at z per cent; at Cleve-
land the tightness is rightly ascribed to
the volume of business; at Pittsburgh
the demand is fair, at 6 to z per cent;
and only at New Orleans, of all the
cities reporting, is the market easier.
The immediate fright at New York was
about supposed enormous demands for
payment of duties, il the new tariff
should go into effect October 1. The
than SO, 900, 900 would pay full duties on
all goods in warehouses on which the
rate had been increased, but no one
supposes that the entire quantity would
be taken out and meanwhile the Treas
ury is now offering to pay out $40, 900, 600
for ~ per cents and S23. 900, 900 more in
prepayment of interest on the 4 per
cents
If there were no speculative tendency
interfering with free movements Of
crops, commercial bills would soon
draw money from abroad, but an un-
favorable crop report causes higher
prices for staples, and prior to that the
exports had been very light, prices here
being too high for foreign markets.
Breadstuffs had not been strong until
Thursday, the latest information as to
yield being generally more favorable.
But the Government report as to condi-
ton September l enabled speculators to
produce ''bear panic, and the net ad-
vance for the week has been cents in
wheat on sales of 20, 900, 900 bushels;
5 cents in corn on sales of 10, 900, 900
bushels, and cents in oats. Lard and
hogs were also stronger, and the report
that cotton was in condition a shade
lower than last year caused a rise OF a
sixteenth, with sales of 596. 900 bales
for the week. Other products have not
changed much in price, though oil is
~ cents lower.
The reports from other cities indicate
no slackening of activity on account Of
monetary difficulties at any point west or
south of Philadelphia The reports as to
collections are almost uniformly satis-

Chief Mayes Makes an Appeal to Commis-
sioner Morgan.
TAHLEQUAH, L T., Sept 16.-The let
ter of Treasurer Ross, of the Cherokee
Nation, to Chief Mayes, notifying him
in an official way that the cattlemen
had not met the semi-annual payment,
brought about a correspondence be-
tween Chief Mayes and E NJ. Hewins,
of the Cherokee Strip Livestock Asso-
citation.
Hewins' reply to the chiefs demands
for the payment past due was: 'If the
Cherokee nation can show US any pro-
lection, giving US the use of the country
according to contract we are only too
willing to comply with our contract,
etc
Chief Mayes has made no reply to this
letter, but has made an appeal to the
Hon. 7. j. Morgan, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, in which he says, after
giving a list of Cherokee institutions
needing support: "We have regular
annuity of about $50, 900. This annuity
has failed Tor many years to meet the
expenses OF our educational system
and the demands for the main
tenence of our public institutions. But
this deficiency has been met by our in
ternal revenues and the sales Of lands,
among which is the revenue derived
from our grazing lands west of the Ar
kansas river. For five years preceding
the last two years our Nation realized
S100, 600 per annum for this grazing
privilege and for the last two years the
Cherokees have realized the sum of
$500, 900 per annum for this privilege.
1.-The order of President Harrison Or
dering men from our grazing lands from
which we have been deriving revenue
for many years, seems from the CORE
spondence herewith submitted to have
the effect to deprive our people of the
| 5000, 900 revenue. Now I doubt if you
can conceive the real burden that will
be put upon the Cherokees in depriving
them of this revenue to run their
| public institutions and govern
ment that had just begun to
appearance after going through the
trials of destructive war. The greater
part of our present crops are already
destroyed by the drought now prevailing
in this section, and our people are al
ready suffering from the effects of it
Now, in this season of suffering, will
your Government take from our people
this much needed revenue? Is this
charity?
81 see that the President has recon-
mended that the people of Oklahoma be
provided for in this, their hour of dis
tress. How strange! And we, their
neighbors, must be deprived of that
which is justly ours-and by his order
We can only make these pitiful appeals
to you; our mouths are shut off from
your courts of justice. The Cherokees
are losing faith in your Government
and the teachings of the missionaries
will certainly lose its force with the In
dians if, by the order of one man, the
| Cherokees are to be treated in this man
ner. The Cherokees are not asking for
charity, they only ask for that which is
| theirs"
