FIFTY-SECOND CONGRESS
MoRGAN's SILVER RESOLUTION UNDER
SENATORIAL FIRE.
Senator Sherman Said it was Subject for
Political Convention and not for the
senate-The Negroes Want Repre-
sentation at the Worlds Fair,
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, d. O., May25 I'm the
Senate resolution was offered by Mr..
Morgan ON the 31st of March directing
the committee on finance to make ex-
animation and report in relation to
currency and coinage and to the effect
of the act of July 1890 on prices OF
silver bullion was taken up. Senator
Morgan called for the yeas and nays
on the adoption of the resolution.
Senator Morrell moved that the re
solution be referred to the committee
on finance. Senator Morgan modified
bis resolution by ga new para.
graph instructing the finance COM
mittee to report a supplementary act
providing for coinage Of gold and
Silver bullion on equal terms as to
each metal and authorizing depositors
of gold or silver bullion to
receive coin certificates for it at its
mint value.
Senator Sherman said it seemed to
him that the approaching political
convention had more to do with the
resolution than the Senate had. This
was not the proper time to debate the
subject, especially when the executive
authoritive were engaged in move
ment for an international conference
to establish parity of gold and silver
on certain basis.
Senator Morgan spoke in favor OF
the resolution. He referred to Sher-
man as having headed the march for
the utter destruction of silver
and said he was now Willingly or
unwillingly) a candidate for the presi-
dency and therefore desired to make
friends of what he (Sherman) consid
cred to be the mammon of iniquity by
saying he was in favor, if possible, Of
equal coinage of gold and silver, while
it was his hand that struck silver to
death.
After brief discussion between the
two senators the matter went ovel
without action and the Senate ad
journed.

HOUSE,.
WASHINGTON, May 25.-There was
a surprise in the House today when
Mr.. Henderson of Iowa arraigned
President Harrison and the governors
of the states for failure to give repre-
sentation to the colored people in con-
nection with the Worlds Fair.
He was then followed by MIR. John
son. of Indiana, in a speech
eulogistic of Harrison, denunc!-
atory of the south and strongly
in favor of a force bill. There
was great excitement and confusion
during the delivery of Mr.. Johnson's
speech, and the chairman at times
was unable to preserve order. The
Democrats crowded in the aisles, rails
ing their voices and gesticulatlng
wildly, and the house became per-
feet bedlam.
After some routine business the
house went into committee OF the
whole on the civil appropriation bill.
The first subject was the appropria-
ton for the government exhibit OF the
Worlds fair.
After various minor amendments
were adopted Mr.. Johnson offered an
amendment that no part OF the amount
appropriated be available unless the
doors of the exposition be closed Sun
days.
Mr.. Hooker of Mississippi, offered an
amendment to the amendment that In
no event shall the government exhibit
be opened on Sundays. MIR. Hooker'i
amendment was agreed to.
Mr.. Atkinson of Pennsylvania, offer
ed an amendment that no part of the
appropriation be available until the
board of managers shall give satisfac
tory assurance that no intoxicating
liquors will be sold on the ground
Agreed to. Pending further actor
the committee arose and the Hous'
adjourned.

took place Wednesday evening at the
Park Congregational church. The bride
was Miss Mary Inez Tompkins, popu-
lar member of the above mentioned
church, and the groom was Thomas
Jones. Miss Pearl Thompkins, sister OF

O'Clock the bridal party entered, and
marched to the platform, while Misses
Hope, Beardsley and Dora james fur
nished music appropriate to the occa-
sion. Rev. Thomas d. Hendry, the

FELL OFF THE BRIDGE.
The Fatal Step Taken by John Capp Al
San Pedro,

The Fatal Step Taken by John Capp at
San Pedro.
About 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon,
at San Pedro, the body Of John Capp
was found in a ravine, under the Sixth
street bridge, by A. S. Gibbons.
The deceased was fiddler in Charlie
Clements dance hall. About O'Clock
in the morning he started for home.
Clements, who saw him last, says he
was not under the influence of liquor,
Cspp was very near-sighted, and, in
crossing the bridge, which is about fifty
feet high, he probably walked between
the side-braces and fell into the ravine
He fell SO that, as he lay on the ground
he was hidden by the bushes to those
passing.
Today his wife expressed uneasiness
at his not having come home and A. s.
Gibbons, the piano player in the dance
house. went to look for him, find.
ing him as above stated. Corone,
Weldon said yesterday that several
months ago, he had attended Capp, who
had fallen off of bridge in the dark.
The inquest was held last night. The
deceased was AZ years of age, married
and had little child, of whom he was
very fond.

McKEE RANKIN, the melodramatic
actor, who used to star in the play of
the Danites, is made to appear in very
shabby light by the Evening Post, in
connection with Mabel Bert, the leading
lady OF his company in former years.
She is smart, bright, intelligent
woman, with quite enough Of the 6ra-
matte fire to enable her to play in 30
ciety dramas, though hardly up to the
tragedy standard. 1t seems, from what
the Post says, that Rankin is not con-
tent with having ruined the poor
woman's reputation by having her made
the correspondent in divorce suit, but
has actually endeavored to procure her
discharge from engagements obtained
by her, just because she asserts her in
dependence of him and desires to lead a
correct life for the sake OF her children,
who are growing up and cannot be much
longer kept in ignorance of her lost po-
sition. It is hard lines for repentant

THERE are Republicans who believe
in "possum" policy, but evidently old
Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, is not
one of them. In reply to come news
paper in his own state, which denied
that the force bill was living issue in
this campaign, the old man has written
letter from Paris that is ''muy bron-
co., The old man says that the Lodge
bill embodies the very essence of Re-
publican principles, boiled down from a
hsgshead to thimbleful. His letter
is the very enchilada of radical politics,
and leads the reader to believe that the
ancient spirit Of sectional hatred is even
stronger in the old chaps breast than
in the days previous befo, de wah.''

THE Arizona newspapers claim a wool
croop of one million dollars for this year,
the most Of which money goes into the
pockets of poor men. Arizona will be q
pastoral country long after the lands in
this state have become too valuable for
pasturage; and men will have to breed
from ten to twenty head Of sheep an
nually on each farm, in order to supply
the family with mutton, just as they do
in the New England states. Arizona
has dry climate, and her sheep are
very free from the scab, as compared
with those of Oregon and Washington,

it names as final arbiters of the ques-

A ROTTEN SYSTEM.

The way in which tolls and wharfage
have been and are still being collected
on the waterfront OF San Francisco by
the legalized teredos, known as the state
harbor commissioners, is simply sys-
tenn of legalized extortion and to the
average student of the English language,
extortion is merely polite synonym
for robbery. The way that things have
been going on for years, is to have each
ship pay 80 cents per ton to the state, and
then collect the same amount from
every dray that passes the gateway of
the dock, whether the load on the dray
weighs twenty or 1000 pounds.
1t seems as if there ought to be brains
enough in that commission OF old subsi-
died salts who preside over those docks,
to devise some scheme that is at once
equitable, both for the dock lessees, who
hire from the state, and for the shipper
who has to 60 to such dock for the
delivery Of his goods. 1t would not be q
bad scheme, for instance, to have rate
of SO much per each 100 pounds carted
away or, at least, a rate that would
recognize no fractions of less than fifty
pounds in weight. This thing Of asking
men to pay by measurement is all well
enough on shipboard, because the goods
that are very light in weight often oc-
cupy great deal Of room in the hold of
a vessel; and that loom is necessarily
limited while the vessel is at sea.
But once on shore, the goods should
only be taxed for dockage by actual
weight. We make these suggestions
now, because we are looking forward to
a day when the port Of Los Angeles will
be put under state control, as the port
Of San Francisco has been for the psst
thirty years. With q law applyinguni.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-08-26

formly to all docks and wharves within
the limits Of the state, that are under
the jurisdiction of state board OF com
missioners, every shipper would get
square deal, and there would be no real
cause for complaint. The present sys-
tenn of tolls on the San Francisco docks

'49, when every sort OF extortion was
dignified by the name Of business.
