that a minimum cost is required for a

WASHINGTON, March 4.-[Special.l 1.-The
House and Senate passed the long and
tedious hours of last night in considera-
tion of conference reports on appropria-
ton bills; which, as fast, as presented,
we're disagreed to and sent to another
conference. At the dawn of day to-day
legislators presented weary and DIS.
HEvELED appearance.
The conference reports of the deficiency,
agricultural and legislative appropriation
bills had been presented and agreed to
before six o'clock this a. m, and the
copyright bill had been agreed upon and
sent to the President.
The French spoliation claims and def
cheney bill was agreed to by the House,
but the Senate receded from the Central
Pacific claim against the grant of three
million dollars, and also Stewards amend
ment to pay war claims Of California,
Nevada and Oregon.
The President signed the copyright bill
this morning. The President, Attorney
General Miller, Postmaster General Wan
emaker and Secretary Proctor and Rusk
came early to the Capitol and went to
| ate. He signed the bills as rapidly as
passed.
In the House at eleven o'clock McKin-
presented a resolution of thanks to
| Speaker Reed for his courtesy, ability and
| impartiality. 1t was adopted; yeas 1872,
| nays 116, strict party vote. Cheers by
| Republicans.)
Reed here entered and was greeted with
wild applause by the Republicans.
BY this time the galleries and corridors
were literally packed and many ladies
tainted and we're carried out.
The hubbub and confusion was so great
that members on the floor could scarcely
| hear their own voices.
| The door keepers of the house floor he
came lax and admitted ladies, with the
| wives and children of representatives.
| At ten minutes to II committee consist
ing of Mckinley, Payson and Mills, in
| formed the house that the President had
no further business to communicate.
| A Senate messenger also appeared with
| a similar message and at II :55 Reed made
a short address, reviewing the work of the
5lst Congress, and thanked the mem
bers for their treatment of him.
At precisely twelve o'clock Reed brought
his gavel down and declared the House
adjourned sine die. The House then broke
into wild cheers and the members threw
papers into the air. Ladies' and children
waved their handkerchiefs and altogether
it was thrilling scene.
| When the cheers subsidized the members
broke into song, which no sooner ceaseC
than it was taken up by the press gallery
fully one hundred and fifty correspon
dents blended their voices in the Doxol
ogy, amid cheers from members anC
ladies.
The Senate adjourned at the same hou
precisely, amid animated scenes, but will
trifle more dignity than on the Hous
| side.
