THE SENATE.

From the Senate was received an act
providing for the filing OF nomination
papers of candidates for congress to be
elected ON the first " ednesday In April.
1893.
There was n discussion as TO the mean
ing of the act as proposed, and Mr..
Mccarthy moved To lay il on the table.
T. III. Wilson hoped that the matter
would not be laid OH the table as the
verbal errors could be easily and quickly
remedied. The error appeared I'm the use
OF the word executive COMMITTEES" by
which the papers were to be filed. Mr..
Mccarthy thought all political parties
might not have any comuit.ee which is
strictly called executive"
Mr. Wilson amended the act so as 20
provide for the filing OF papers by the
state central committees. He explained
that the attorney general had given his
opinion that the congressional election
n a new election and new nominations
must he made and papers nled. The bill

not see the urgency OF the bill.
Mr.. Owen said that the commission 70
revise the statutes had been i'm existence
