WASHINGTON, March BIN the senate the
Blair educational ball was taken up and
MIR. Teller addressed the senate in its sup
port. He said that he had intended to con-
tent himself with silent vote in favor Of
the bill, but the remarkable character Of the
discussion in the last few days had induced
him to express his opinion on the bill and on
some questions connected with the debate.
Proud OF the south's Energy.
Referring to the recons.ruction measures,
he declared that he was ore who had advo-
Gated the extension OF suffrage to the colored
people and he had no apologies TO make for
Il. He denied that it was mistake and a
blunder. He admitted the difficulty Of two
races, inharmonious and non-homogeneous,
| living together in equality, but the problem
could be solved. He believed that education
might help to solve it, therefore he had voted
steadily for the pending bill. Ignorance
and crime were co-relative terms. The north
was proud Of the energy the south had dis
played in retrieving her fortunes, and where
as in this instance, the south could not cop'
with the problem the north was willing L
lend her helping hand II any one woul'
present a satisfactory solution Of the rae
problem in the south he said he would gladl,
accept it, though it burdened the govern

Representative Tracy spoke Of the inn
portance OF improving the upper Hudson
above Albany, so that eleven feet of water
might be had up TO New Albany and nine
feet to Troy. The full estimate for this
project is Sl50,000, and he earnestly advo-
Gated its allowance for the next year. Mr..
Tracy also advocated the inclusion in the
bill of his project for the appointments Of
commission to estimate the cost Of deepen
ing the Hudson from New York city 70 the
state dam at Troy aud 10 New Baltimore.
The effect Of this would be to benefit the
entire western country by reducing freights
on vessels that could be loaded directly
from the Erie canal.
Against Bridging the Hudson.
Representative Quinn favored the great
New York channel project He hoped that
the amount asked for, Sl50,000, would be
granted. Members OF the committee as

be allowed. Mr.. Quinn spoke against pro-

One hour before his arrest Mrs Ellen Wheel

In The unnae.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-In the house
Mr. Perkins stated that an erroneous inn
preston had gone out that according TO the
provisions of the Oklahoma bill passed ON
Thursday the Cherokee outlet had been
declared open to settlement under the
homestead laws. The statement should have
been that the public land strip, not the
Cherokee outlet, had been open to settle
ment. The Cherokee outlet, he said, was
embraced within the limits Of the new terri
tory, but was not open TO settlement under
the homestead law.
The bin authorizing the president to re.
tire Gen. John C. Fremont with the rank
Of major general was taken up. After a
number Of highly complimentary speeches
the bill was laid aside with favorable
recommendation. This bill, together with
the Emery bill appropriating $4,000 AZ
| finally amended in committee Of the whole
were subsequently reported TO the house
but no final action was taken.
