NATIONAL LEGISLATORS.
Business Done at Yesterdays Session OF
Congress-.

Business Done at Yesterdays Session OF
Congress.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 1.-THE res
olutions reported by the common cleo
tions committee assert that Mr.. Dubois
is entitled to the seat he now holds for
the full term commencing March 4, 1891,
and that Mr.. Claggett is not entitled to it,
The majority report is signed by Messrs.
Teller, Hoar, Mitchell, Chandler and Hig-
gins, (Republicans) and by Messrs. Pugh
and Turpie (Democrats).
The minority report is signed by two
Democrats, Senator'S Messrs. Vance and
GRAY, and closes with resolutions declar-
ng that Dubois is not entitled to the
eat, and that Claggett is.
Mr.. Mitchell spoke in support of the
majority resolution. Mr.. Vance, not de-
aring to go on last evening with the
rlaggett side OF the case, an executive
)ession was held after which the Senate
adjourned.
The first unfinished business in the house
was motion made by Mr.. Kilgore OF Tex
as to table the motion TO reconsider the
vote by which the House indefinitely
postponed the Senate Joint resolu-
tion authorizing the secretury OF the ma
Wy To transporx contributions for the re-
lief OF the suffering poor of Russia. The
question being raised as to whether or
not the avove joint resolution was on the
unfinished business calendar the speaker
pro tenn desided that il was on the calen-
dar, but remarked that as the motion to
table the motion TO reconsider was priv
ileged one, it could be called up by any
member and any difficulty could be thus
avoided. Mr.. Blount of Georgia thereup-
on called up the motion and was recog-
nized by the chair. Then Mr.. Tracy of
New York came foyward in the role OF a
filibuster, with motion that the House
take recess for one hour, pending which
MIR. Owens of Ohio moved an adjourn
ment, lost 50 to "a. On Mr.. Tracyis mo-
tion no quorum voted on a standing vote
and Mr.. Tracy, having raised this point.
teilers were in order. Mr.. Tracy's reason
for fllibustering lay far deeper than the
resolution which it was proposed to con-
slider.
1t is his desire to keep on the calendar
az many measures as possible to act as
obstacles to the silver bill should il be
placed upon the unfinished business cal
endar. He further desires that some of
the tariff bills should secure the right of
way before the silver bill obstructs the
road.
On motion to table the motion to re-

PROTECTION FOR MINERS.
President Sends Congress a Message ON the
Matter.

Matter.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE following
is the text Of message transmitted to
Congress by the President: "There was
passed by the last Congress an act for the
protection OF the lives OF the miners in
the territories, which was approved by
me on the Sd day Of March, 1891. That no
appropriation was made TO enable me TO
carry the act into effect resulted, / sup
from the fact that it was passed so late in
the session.
Tis law recognizes the necessity OF a re-
eponsible public inspection and supervis-
ION OF the business OF mining i'm the in
terest OF the miners, and is In line with
the legislation OF most OF the states.
The work OF the miner has its unavoid-
able incidents OF discomfort and danger
and these should not be increased bv
the neglect OF the owners TO provideeverv
practicable safety appliance. Econimics
which involve a sacrifice OF human fife
are intoierable.
| transmit herewith memorials from
several hundred miners working I'm the
coal mines in the Indian Territory asking
Tor the appointment OF an inspector un-
der the act referred TO. The recent fright
ful disaster at krabs, in that Territory.
IN which 81 miners met "A horrible death,
gives urgency TO this appeal and recsm-
mend that special application be al
once made Tor the salaries and necessary
the law.
