WAsHINGToN. March 1.-After the trans
action of The routine business to-day the
Senate went into executive session, and
when the doors were re0pened the post
office appropriation bill was reported and
placed ON the calendar and a conference
ordered on the naval appropriation bill.
Teller asked unanimous consent TO take:
up the McGarrahan.. BILL and it was dis
cuSsed until the expiration of the morning
hour, when the bill lost the right of way. +.
!. The Hudson River bridge bill was then
taken NJ, but the Dostlfiics appropriation

the one striking out the appropriation of

was ordered on the agricultural appropria-
tion bill. +. - Il; =. =.
The discussion was again interrupted In
order to have the. conference report on the

present the report. An objection was made
by Hiscock, the object being to have the re-
port taken up on motion. which would DIS
place the Hudson River bridge bill. But
/ the report was read, and Allison asked
: unanimous consent for the Senate to pro-
ceed to its consideration. This gave His.
cock another opportunity OF objecting and
he availed himself of 1t. Thus forced,
Allison moved that the report be now con-
sidered, the motion being agreed to- and
this had the effect of depriving the bridge
bill Of its right of way. Allison made an
explanation OF the report. and stated, in
relation to the Sherman bond amendment,
that he would, in order to test the sense of
the Senate upon it, move 20 reeede from it.

amendment. Tie digressed in order to pay
a compliment to Carlisle. saying that he
knew 30 man in the United States better
fitted TO hold the office OF Secretary of the

vote was then taken, and the Senate, with
out division, receded from the Sherman
amendment. The conference report was
agreed to aud further conference was or
dered on several amendments which had

BOISE. Idaho. March 1.-Thera was a SEN
sation in the Senate this afternoon caused
by two Of the honorable gentlemen coming
to blows. They were Brown 3D., Of Bing-
ham, and Ruck (Pop.), of Alturas. The lat
ter has been opposing the passage of the
bill creating the county of Fremont. In
the course of debate ne went up in front of
the Presidents desk and shaking his finger
at that officer in a menaclng manner asked
him whether he (the PresidenO was Great
ure of the Senate or vice versa.
There had been difference of opinion as
to the status of the bill. and the chair had
ruled against Ruick, who then went over to
the desk of johnson, another POpulist, with
whom Brown was talking. In an under
tone Ruck said: - them. we'll put
them on record"
Brown, being one OF those referred to-
took offense at the remark, and forthwith
slapped Ruick in the face. The latter re-
sponded with blow on the head. Friends
rushed in and separated them. scene of
confusion followed, and the sergeant-at-
arms was called in TO restore order.
During the trouble, Neill (D) of Sho-
shone came in from the Presidents room
and asked some question. Ruick called to
him to go into the cloakroom. Neill, white
with anger. replied. "Do you think a thing
like you can drive me Into the cloakroom,"
and advanced toward the Populist Senator
a collision of a serious character was pre-
vented by the Intervention of other Sena-
tors. Attempts to restore order were
futile. and the Senate finally took recess
until evening
At the evening session OF the. Senate
Ruiek renewed his diatory tactics and be-
came very abusive. The sergeant-at-arms
was repeatedly called on to put him in bis
seat, which was always done very gently.
The session was disorderly throughout. but
under application of the previous question
the Fremont County bill was pushed along
to the stage of ordering the amendments
engrossed.
