WASHINGTON, April 3.-Blair intro
duced bill to regulate the compcnsa-
ton of the laborers employed by the gov
ernment and fixing the lowest wages at
81 per day. Referred.
The vice president announced that he
expected to be absent several days next
week.
Ingalls, was chosen president pro tenn
pore and took the oath of office and as
sumed its duties. The Montana con-
tested election case was then taken up as
unfinished business.
Gray resumed his arguments in support
of the democratic claimants.
The burden of his argument was against
the throwing out of the la votes cast i'm
the precint in Silver Bow county. The
vote for the resolution of the majority
would be, he said, to violate the most
sacred traditions Of American history and
American liberty. He protested against
lister on the State of Montana thus early
in her career.
The matter then went over until Mon
day.
Bills were passed appropriating $780,
600 for n public building AT Leadville,
Colorado; to reorganize and establish n
customs district on Puget sound.
Stewart as n question OF personal priv
ilege said he had been credited by news
papers with having introduced yesterday
a bill TO regulate the manufacture and
sale OF lager beer. He had introduced no
such bill and knew nothing about il.
Note: The bill was introduced by Sena-
tor wolcott.l
The house bill to amend the census law
by providing for the enumeration Of the

men constantly stealing into the United
States. He himself would have been
| willing to 90 farther and stronger in the
way OF Chinese exclusion than the bill
went. The amendments of the commit
tee were all in the direction Of making
| the bill less severe and he feared the
| committee had gone too far i'm that tli-
rection.
Eustis thought il strange that the CEN
| siis committee should report the bill
which had nothing to do with the census,
but a good deal to with municipal police
and international obligations. The bill

sea level, and yet being sheltered
from the cold East winds and open
to the chinook winds of the Paci-
hc Coast, caused by the Japan
Ocean current. Vegetation luxu-

have that grand combination, the
bracing air of the Rockies and the
comforts of an eastern locality.

Special to the Standard.

Special to the Standard.
WASHINGTON, April 3.-If there was
anything like a response to the impulse
to be just on the republican side in the
senate IN the Montana senatorial case,
Senator Gray ought to have aroused il by
his review to-day Of the argument for the
democratic contestant. As Mr.. Spooner,
one of the republican members of the
elections committee said, in congratulate
ing Mr.. Gray Mt the close OF his superb
address, said: at was the best speech
that has been heard in the session."
1t was not only n good speech on its
merits, but It was great oratorical effort
made with dignity and grace. Senator
Gray maintained with great clearness
and force the legality of the election in
the much talked of precinct No. "a Of Sill
yer Bow county. 1t followed that the
members of the legislature from that
county were legally elected, IL the courts
had held that all the other officers chosen
by the same votes had been elected.
The weakness and the evasions of
the majority report made by Mr.. Hoar
were clearly indicated by MIR.
Gray, and Senator George of Mississippi
by Interruptions gave him a chance to
more distinctly point out the evasions of
tIe IIltJorltys me- Inalutalileu aiso tustt
the election of Clark and Maginnis was
clearly made out without going behind
the returns. 1t was a remarkable thing
in his estimation that no one had ever yet
appeared to question the legality of the
election at Precinct No. "a. His perora-
ton was impressive and strong. He ad-
jured the republicans not to do the wrong
they had planned against Montana and
become partners in the sharp practices
of ambitious partisans. IL would
not only be to disregard the decisions of
the courts, ut would be-" said he, "to
draw the bar sinister across the shield of
this fair young state"
Colonel Merrill, of Helena, the repre-.
sentative of the mineral land association,
is here to look after the interests of his
clients in the supreme court and in con
gress. He heard the arguments to-day in
the senatorial case.

men are after the ways and means com
