In the senate.

WASHINGTON CRY. Sept. 30.-In the SEN
ate Perkins of California gave notice of an
amendment he intended TO offer TO the re-
peal bill, carrying out the suggestions
made by him in a recent speech.
The resolution offered yesterday by
Chandler of New Hampshire, calling Tor
information as TO the commission investi-
eating the New York custom house. came
up, and Chandler spoke in favor of its
adoption. He said the object was, after
ascer,aining facts, TO invoke If necessary
the action Of congress to prevent the ap-
pointment OF officers or nominal officers
of the United States without warrant
Of the constitution or law, and contrary
to the spirit of both. Chandler had read
Appraiser Cooper's letter rendering his
resignation because of the treatment
he had received at the hands of the com
mission. Chandler, after reading reports
from the New York papers touching the
proceedings Of the commission to the
effect that IL was created in order to make
place for some anti-snapper Democrats in
New York state. called the attention of
Senator Hill especially TO the matter. in
order that he might tell the senate il he
wanted TO whether any of the vacancies
made by the commission had been filled
by anti-snapper Democrats Chandler
said he was now supporting the president
IN his effort TO secure repeal OF the silver
law. but this would not deter him from
criiicising the president. who he thought
was given too much to disregsrding the
provisions of expressed law and to make a
law unto himself. and when he reached
determination to attempt 10 carry
IL out whether he saw the law
for Il or not. Chandler cited Cleve-
lands appointment in his former
term, without the advice or consent of the
senate, of W. l.. Putnam and j h. Angel
as commissioners TO negoiis.e fisheries
treaty with Great Britain, in violation of
the constitution. Chandler referred 20 the
message to the senate communicated TO
Gov. Northen. of Georgia, and said he vas
struck with the justice Of the criticism he
had seen in a recent London newsparer.
that there was q singular resemba ance be-
txeen the letters OF President Cleveland
and the emperor OF Germany. Coming TO
the Hawaiian episode. Chandler read from
letter Of the president 20 the provisions!
