General Alper and Others.
Boston. Aug. 13-There was q campfire
in Mechanics Hall tonight, attended by
all the notable people here General Alger
spoke and was followed by General Sher-
man. In response to loud calls for Gen.
eral Butler he came forward and spoke
at considerable length. General Butler
began with a statement that. unlike those
who had spoken only gratitude to the SOL
der and citizen entertainers, he was an
ungrateful one. He had no desire that
the citizens should be generous
to the soldiers, although they had
been liberal in the past, but he
wanted the country to pay its honest debt
it having paid its soldiers in deprecated
currency, which they had accepted. al
though rejected by bond-hoders. lie urged
the men to fight together for the payment
action by the Grand Army would force any
legislation of the kind they wished, because
all politicians, North and South, would do
anything to gain their votes.
Major Mckinley of Ohio, the next
speaker. differed from General Butler, who
had just said that in a money point of view
the soldiers made a bad bargain when
deprecated currency. He said no more
honorable obligation was ever entered into
and preserve the Union to man.
kind, the best and freest Govern
ment OH the face of Gods earth.
Whereat General Butler exclaimed, land
most unjust" amid considerable excite
ment. Major Mckinley then continued.
Major William Warner and General Sick
les were the last speakers.

provisions of the existing laws providing
for temporary expenditures Of the Govern
ment to the 29th of August, was taken up
and passed.
pending question being on Vests amend
ment, offered Monday, reducing the duty on
tin plates from 2 2-l0 cents TO l cent per
pound
Gray continued his argument in support
of the amendment.
Carlisle took part in the discussion and
cited statements made by Untimeyer tina
the quantity of tin plate annually imported
into the United States was 1886. 692 tons,
costing S23, 0O0, 0G0. and the production of
that material in this country would give
employment to 100000 workmen. Carlisle
said he had made calculation of the wages
which those workmen would receive under
those conditions. II one-haif of the $685.
600, 900 was spent in wages, the other half
going for material and expenses, each
workman would receive the magnificent
SUM OF S38 80 per year; and if the whole
amount was paid in wages each workman
would receive SIG &c per year, and that, he
said, was the sort Of statement ON which
this legislation was asked.
German next addressed the Senate In op-
position to the proposed increase Of duty on
tin plates. In conclusion, he said: AZ
know that nothing, we can say will stay the
majority. You addressing the Republicans
have entered on the passage of an act which
throughout its every page and additions in
flict burdens on the people. We cannot
stop you, but at all events, we have done
one thing which was right and proper and
necessary. That is we have had free and
open discussion Of this matter"
The debate continued at length, being
participated in by Gray, Aldrich, Hiscock
and Dawes, the latter expressing the con-
viction that the American laborer would
rather pay one-half a cent more for tin can
bearing the stamp of the American eagle
than ne-half cent less for one bearing the
stamp of the British lion.
The Tariff Bill was laid aside informally
and the conference report on the Indian
Appropriation Bill was presented and
agreed to.
Plumb. from the Committee on Appro-
priations, reported joint resolution for
the relief of restitution in Oklahoma, and

morrow. The House bill making an APP
preparation for an addition to the clerical
force in the Pension Office was.taken up and
the various amendments reported by the
Committee on Appropriations were agreed
to, and the bill passed.

sion officers were elected, the principal po-
sitions going to the East, in pursuance, as

tive years-Detroit in 1891, Topeka in 1892
and Chicago in 1898. Roll was called and
the representatives from each State had
an opportunity to name their choice for

preference for Colonel Veasey; New
York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island. Tennes-
see, Texas, and Vermont supported
Colonel Veasey; Utah, Virginia and Alaska
wanted Colonel Smedberg. and Illinois was
the last State to respond for Colonel Yea
sey. As the roll-call ended Colonel Smed-
berg aud General HOyey Withdrew their
names. This action was greeted with great
applause, and by a unanimous vote Col
unel Veasey was declared elected as Com
mander-in- Chief. Colonel Veasey accepted
the honor in brief speech.
Next in order was the selection of can

unanimously elected Junior Vice-C Com
