SENATE

SENATE.
Mr.. Quay made personal explanation as
to remark attributed 10 him 10 certain
newspapers reports OF The caucus last night.
He had been represented as saying that he
did not wish to have southern members OF
the House OF Representative yelping at bile
heels. urged on by the Speaker. He had
made no such remark and had made no re-
fl action on the distinguished presiding officer
of the other branch Of Congress.
Mr.. Hoar expressed the hope that it would
not be understood thar, because MIR. Quay
felt cslled upon to contradict such state
ment, other people were also called upon 10
contradict mendacious statements Rs to them
on similar subject. Senator'S know that
the statements as to himself were menda-
cious.
Mr.. Frye moved 10 proceed to the consld-
GRAFTON of the river and harbor bill.
Mr.. Eimuuds demanded the yeas and
nsys.
The vote was taken and the motion was
agreed to-yeas sc. nays 0-the latter as TO-
lows Blair, Cameron, Edmunds, Hale, His
cock, Hoar, Ingalls, and Sanders. So the
Senate proceeded to the consideration ofthe
river and harbor appropriation bill.
Mr.. Hampton having asked Mr. Frye to
allow him to have bill taken up for action,
Mr.. Frye excused himself for declining tc
do go. ard said that he had asked the finance
committee to let him have two days for the
consideration OF the river and harbor bill
to-day and o-morrow-snd that he should
ask the Senate to remain in session tenor
row until the bill YVES finished. He did not
feel at liberty, therefore, to yield any time
for any other business.

unsuccessful effort TO secure the passage OF

iector 10 this Instance.
The House then proceeded to the consld-
GRAFTON Of the conference report on the IL
dian appropriation bill, which Was presented
by MIR. Perkins, OF Kansas.
Mr.. Cannon, of Illinois, certified the re
port as b3iog the most extraordinary one
which had ever been submitted during his
experience In the House. When the bill
vas frat submitted to the House he had
conceived. il to be his duty to raiae points OF
order against items sggregating in apprc-
pra.ion 1880 900 These items had been
stricken out. The Senate had agreed To
amendments eggregsting 1900. 900. The
House had non-ooncurred in these amend
menls. Then this strange thing happened ::
the conference report carried the fuli
amount of the bill as it passed the House.
with the tnll amount of the Senate ammend-
menis and S12 600 more. The bill created
number of new offices and increased
number of salaries.
