In the House, the Federal-eleetions repeal
bill was taken up.
Mr.. Lacy (Iowa. r. characterized the meas
ure as an unseemly bill brought in at an un-
seemly time. He proceeded to eriticise the
election methods pursued in certain districts Of
Seath Carolina.
So far as the Republican party was concerned,
the administration of these laws was to be in
the hands of the Democrats for i've years. He
referred to the election frauds in New York
City, and said that Chicago was rapidly emu
lating the city of New York.
Mr. Gillett spoke against the bill. and referred
to the beneficial effects which had resulted
from the election laws in the city of New York,
aud he paid his respects to Tsmmany Hall.

WEDNESDAY. SEPT. 81.

In the Senate, Mr.. Dubois spoke on his reso-
luton introduced at the beginning of yester-
days session, and was replied to by Mr.. Mitch
ell (Ore.. K. }, in strong argument against 1t.
Mr.. Chandler N. H., r. argued Its postpone
ment. If it were shown when the time came
that the votes of the other missing Senators
should be absolutely necessary TO decide the
passage of the repeal bill, it would be well
enough then to vote for such resolution.
Senator Chandler insinuated that improper
motives actuated Senators Voorhees, and Cor
man in voting against the seating of Lee Man
tie, of Montana. Senator Woicott entered the
debate with the declaration that those States
will yet have time to be represented upon
the floor of the Senate before vote is taken
on this question"
Senator Wolcott said that the majority is
planning to have all-night sessions, and init
mated that Senators German and Aldrich were
conspiring to this end. which he characterized
as brutal. To this Senator German replied:
al have been member OF this body for IL
years, hut this is the first instance in all that
time when | have ever known Senator or
his agents to listen at the door of a committee
room in order to tell the Senate the nature of
private conferences between Senators. It is
needless for me to say more on that subject"
A discussion followed. participated in by
several Senators. The Dubois resolution went
to the calendar.
Mr.. Pasco Fla, d. spoke on the repeal bill.
The Senate at $40 adjourned.
In the House, Representative Morse Mass,
r. took the floor. Several days ago he made
some remarks about Pension Commissioner
Locbren, and stated that he would include in
his remarks in the Record some newspaper
clippings. These clippings had been withheld
from the Record by Speaker Crisp, because Dir.
Morse had not formally obtained unanimous
consent of the House for their insertion.
To-day he made the request, but Mr.. Fithian
I'll, D. objected, whereupon Mr.. Morse de-
ciined to permit business to proceed in the
absence of quorum.
Finally, however a resolution was passed
through quoram being present.

In the Senate, the silver purchase repeal bill
was taken up at l1:25. Mr.. Harris, a member
of the Finance Committee, made an argument
against the bill. The passage of the pending
bill meant that the American people should
have no more legal-tender silver dollars, and
that hereafter silver shall be used only frac-

CHAT OF THE CORRIDORS,

Notwithstanding the pressing needs of the
moment or rather the critical situation, there
is wholesale desertion of the Capitol by a
large number Of Congressman, both Democrats
and Republicans. Last week at one time both
leaders Of Congress were absent, probably
taking advantage Of the fact that nothing was
being done that could possibly demand their
presence. The end is not yet, by any means !;
and though the people may grow impatient,
that is all they can do.

Abstract OF the More Important
Proceedings Of Both Houses.
TUESDAY, SEPT. 26.

, In the Senate, a resolution was offered by
Mr.. Dubois Idaho, T. J, and went over until
tomorrow, for the postpOnement OF ali legSla-
ton in the Senate relating to the Federal cleo
tons laws, the tariff, and finance. The reason
Mr.. Dubois gave was that the partially unrep-
resented States of Washington, Montana. and
Wyoming might have the votes, influence and
protection guaranteed TO every State by the
Constitution.
The repeal bill was taken up. Mr.. Perkins
made a speech against il, in which he declared
himself sincere believer in the use and coin
age of both gold and silver.
Mr.. Stewart continued his attack upon the
President He intimated that the President
had used his patronage to influence Nom bers
Of Senate and House; but Mr.. Stewart when
challenged by Mr.. Palmer to bring specific
charges name the parties referred to, refused
to do so.
Mr.. Voorhees, stated that the friends of the
President had not answered Mr. Stewards ale
gatious because they did not think Mr.. Cleye-
land needed any defense whatever.
The Senate, after brief Executive session,
adjourned at p. m.
In the House, the attendance was unusually
small, notwithstanding that to- day was ex-
pected to inaugurate debate in which partisan
bitterness would equal, If not exceed, any de-
bate since that of 1876.
The Federal elections repeal bill was taken
mp. Mr.. Tucker va, D. addressed the House.
He argued that the statutes which it was pro-
posed to repeal were unconstitutional, and that
Congress had no right to confer the power it
had done upon supervisors of election.
Mr.. Brosius pa, r. spoke against the pro-
posed repeal. He declared that the CoDstitu-
tion was not the creature Of the States. but was
created by the people; that the power and au-
thority conferred upon the Government were
operative in all States over all the people; that
the Nation was clothed with ample power to
enforce the Constitution.
The House at 4:40 adjourned.

Mr. Morgan Gala, d. addressed the Senate
in opposition to the BILL
We are told" said he, "that Congress can
not exercise its functions for the regulation Of
money wisely or justly until it has obtained
the consent Of some foreign powers. If that
proposition is true then we might just as well
declare that we not a Government, and
that we have not the power under the Consti-
tuition of the United States of taking care Of
the important and serious interests of the
people.

session, adjourned until TO- morrow at IL a. %.
