SESSION OF TIE SENATE.
The Bill for Better Couplers and
Brakes Under Debate


Brakes Under Debate.
WASHINGTON. Feb. TN the Senate to-
day number Of unobjected House bills on
the calendar were passed, among them six
teen private pension bills; also the Senate
bill for the relief of tie assignees or legal
representatives Of John Roach, deceased, to
pay the balance due Oh the United States
ship Dolphin.
Mr.. Turpie offered the following resolu-
ton, which was laid on the table and or
dered printed:
Believing that the doctrine of asylum,
practiced and approved by very large major
ity of the members Of the family
Of nations, is highly expedient ana
that jurisdiction in what are known as
political Offenses ought not 10 be extra-territo-
rial, it is concluded as the sense Of the Senate
that no treaty should be approved which pro
poses to Gust courts or magistrates OF the
United States Of the right to determine IN each
case under allegations and proof therein
whether the offense charged be political or not
political under the laws Of nations.
The Senate resumed consideration Of the
substitute reported from the committee on
interstate commerce 10 promote the safety
Of employees and travellers upon railroads
by compelling common carriers engaged in
interstate commerce TO equip their cars with
automatic couplers and continuous air
brakes, and their locomotives with driving
wheel brakes.
Mr.. Chandler managed to give political
twist to the debate. He brought up the res
olution in the national democratic platform
which denounced the Republican party
and the republican Senate for
not having provided legislation for
the protection Of the railroad employees and
insisted that the position Of SO many demo-
cratic senator's against the bill was incon-
sistent with their party fealty. He twitted
them with the fact that only eleven Of them
had voted yesterday TO take up the bill for
the repeal OF the Sherman act, knowing the
declaration of the national democratic con-
vention on the subject of silver, acknowl-
edged the entreaties of the President-elect
to have she Sherman act repealed before
March 4, and he predicted that the course Of
the democratic senators at the next con-
gress on the subject of the tariff would be
equally at variance with their party plat
form.
The senators who took part in the debate
were Messrs. Chandler, Cullom, Wolcott,
Harris, Villas, Hunton, Palmer, Call, Hoar,
and Hiscock.
Mr.. Hunton sent to the clerks desk and
had read telegram just received by him
from H. 8. Haines, president OF the Ameri-
can Railway Association, stating that it
would cost SIS, ZOO, 900 to equip all the
freight cars with the required safety appli-
ances, and that reasonable elasticity as to
time should be given.
Without action on the bill the Senate sd-
Journed.

nE WANTS WAR.
The Gear Gives Diamonds to Germany

The Car Gives Diamonds to Germany
and Moves HIS Army.
rLoxpoN, Jan. 2l.-Dlspatches from
Warsaw show that while the car sends
his son to Berlin with q diamond dia-
dem for the emperor S siste and makes
professions as 10 his love of peace, he
is pursuing steadily mis- preparations
for war. Three divisions of infantry
are now breaking up their quarters IN
the Coucasus and within q few weeks
will be III Russian Poland. Neither in
the VOlga district nor In Russian Po-
land has the cholera disappeared, and
hence the importation of troops from
Saratoif and Asia Minor is likely to
lead 10 fresh and violent outbreak of
the epidemic as soon as the new diyls-
ions arrive. Just why the men in St.
Petersburg who know this sbon hurry
on the Caucasian infantry to the Ger
man frontier is a mystery, unless the
easy and apparently unavoidable ex-
PLANTATION be accepted that the czar ex-
poets trouble before the end of 1893.
The project of u worlds fair In Con-
stantlnuple within the next four or tive
years is taking form. Selim Melhame,
formerly general director of the ma
tional debt, has the matter IN hand and
announces this week that 1000, 900
francs have already been guaranteed
to the undertaking. The principal
difficulty encountered by the men sup
porting Selim Nickname is the determi-
nation to make the fair national instead
of international, and the consequent
division of opinion among the manu-
facturers and tradeemen OF the empire
will have, it is feared, disastrous ef-
feet upon both plans.

Republican Senators Will Let it Live
Over the Session.


WAsHINGToN, Jan. 2l--The post
poned republican senatorial caucus
which was called to meet tonight at
the residence of Senator Sherman, WAS
somewhat Disappointing to the sena-
tors who had been instrumental IN
having it called, because it failed to Sc
cure the attendance of q quorum.
Consequently the gathering took rather
the nature of an informal conference
than of a representative caucus. Ii
there had been any serious iiEtention
depressing the silver repeal question to
an issue, that intention speedily dlsap-
peared under the discouraging clrcum-
stances. After brief expression OF
individual views on the subject it be-
came evident that no agreement could
be reached that could by any possibll-
ity secure the adhesion of all, or near
ly all Of the republican senators. So
the subject was dropped by mutual
consent. and II was made apparent that
the question of silver repeal will not be
made party issue during the remand
or of this congress.
In view OF the small attendance the
senators present c0ntented themselves
with endeavoring 10 arrange an order
of business to be taken up in the sem
ate when the anti-option bill shall have
been disposed of. Under the circum-
stances it was agreed that nothing
should be placed in tins order that
promised to give rise to any contro-
versy within the party lines. Under
this agreement II was decided that,
aside from appropriation bilIs. one Of
the fret matters tn be brought to the
front should be the bill opening the
Cherokee strip 10 settlement and reim-
bursing the Indians for the lands taken,
involving an expenditure of about

TO KEEP OUT ILLS
Congress Wraagiess Over the
Quarantino Measure.
Mr.. COCHRAN INDIGNANT
The House Paints the Dangers ofChol-
era and Leaves the Country Un-
protected Until Monday.

WAsHixoTos, Jan. 2l.--The feature
Of the session of the house today WAS
the consideration Of the national quar-
antine bill. II was ushered ia by IN
eloquent speech from Congressman
Raynor of Maryland. who depicted
that danger was imminent TO tho peo-
pie from unrestricted immigration
and who urged the necessity OF
agreeing to some national law which
would protect the United States from
an invasion OF its most deadly enemy,
cholera.
On motion of Mr.. Stump (democrat1
of Maryland, an amendment was
adopted to the section, authorizing the
president TO detail any medical officer
TO serve in the Office Of the counsel 1t
any foreign port for the purpose of
furnishing information and giving bills
of health. The amendment restricts
the authorization of tue president 70
the period during which contagion or
infectious diseases are prevalent at
such ports.
Mr.. Cochran opposed the amendment
with vigor. No decent man, he said,
would submit to this imprisonment.
The men Fho would become valuable
citizens of the republic would resent
the restraint put upon them, and the
only persons who would immigrate
would be those whp were compelled TO
do so. The amendment, instead of
improving the immigration to this
country, would degrade it. Mr.. Lodge
(repubhcsn) of Massachusetts, also op-
posed the amend&ent. because 1t
woald lessen the strength of the meas.
ure. The amepament was rejected.
The Amendment
The section providing that The marine
hospital service. shall cooperate with,
Ind aid state ADD municipal boards of
health in the execution of their rules
and the rules by the secretary OF the
treasury to prevent the. introduction Of
contagious or infectious diseases, WAS
the next bone of contention.
Mr.. Cochran offered an amendment
providing that nothing. in the act shall
be construed to authorize any federal
officer to relax. modify or suspend any
rule, precaution or regulation adopted
by state or municipal'authority for the
exclusion of disease, or to permit the
entrance or discharge Of any vessel
where quarantine regulations have
been established Sby1R2ch authorities
until the vessel rEale f&4p complied
with the regulation. <s<-f>
Mr.. Boutelle argued that the adop-
ton of the amendment would render
the whole bill absolutely nlgatory. On
division Oh the Amendment the vote
OI,meliop Ql110js sdasypss.sAIn, Aeasa
at 5:Is took recess until IL clock
Monday. The effect of this action will
be to bring the bill up Monday.
