tory fishes in Indian river, Florida. was offered by MT. Q lay, republican, Of Penn sylvania, and agreed 10.
 The naval appropriation bill and general deficiency Dll were reported from the ap- propriations committee, both with amend- menis, and placed on the calendar.
 Mir. Gallinger presented a memorial from the Daughters of the Revolution to have pcs ed in conspicuous place in every postoffice in the United States a copy of the declaration of independence as an educs- tlonai means. He gave the proposition his unqualified approval, and had it referred to me postoffice committee.
 A resolution was offered by Mir. Hawley, republican, of Connecticut, and agreed to, requesting the president to call the atten- ton of the government of Nicaragua to the proper adjustment and settlement of claims of private citizens of the UnRed States against that republic.
 Inc legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill was taken up, and by 5:40 p. m., when there was a short exscu- tive session, followed by a recess till 8 D. m., ninety-two pages of the bill-over two thirds of the whoie-had been completed, |, with no more delay than was required for the two reading clerks to race through 1t, emitting most of the reading matter be- tween the opening and closing of each par agraph.
 When the night session opened at 8p. m. there were not many senators present,
 
 tors. The reading of the legislative, ex ecutive and judicial appropriation bill was continued and in forly-fve minutes the bill was completed, so far as the committee amendment was concerned.
 At 9:l0 D. m. Mir. Chandler interrupted the considerations of the legislative bill and called up the resolution heretofore offered by him, declaring that there was no lawful election in tbe legislature of Kansas of a United states senator when Sen-
 Al elected. He began by stating that if the seals nf Senator Martin of Kansas and Sen ator Roach of North Dakota were to be vacated the legislatures of those two states now in session would elect republicans, and the democrats iu the senate (even if they retained the votes of Senators Kyle of South Dakota and Allen of Nebraska, pop ulists) would lose control of tue senate and there would be majority of two against them. It had always been his judg- ment that those two seats should be vacated and his resolution would certainly be putable facts. There had been only three democrats, he said, in the Kan sas legislature, but the republicans and populists had been hoodwinke into elect ing MT. Martin, who, as soon as he came to Washington, made the closest connec- ton with the democratic leaders. After his admission to the senate he had re- nounced all pretensions of populism affilia- tions and had possessed himself of all the national patronage given to Kansas, and had become one of the most uncompromis- ing and relentless democrats in the senate.
 From Kansas MT. Chandler passed to North Dakota, claiming that MT. Roach had been elected by interference and manipulation of the basest sort.
 Mir. Chandler charged Mir. German with having thwarted investigation into MT. Roach's case, and read voluminous ex- tracts from the Congressional Record to prove 1t.
 "And now,n he said in his bitterest tones, "the cashier of the Citizens Ma tional bank of Washington represents the state of North Dakota in the appropriate garb of a democratic senator.''
 When MT. Chandler took his seat Mir. Hill arose and said In serious tones, CT will now speak on the appropriation bill'' scorching attack upon Mir. Chandler, W hom he accused of having taken advantage of the courtesies and privilege afforded to him to assail some of his brother senators. MT. Hill did not believe that the senator had helped an houest cause by the spectacle he had made of himself tonight.
 "But,' said MT. Hill, with great earnestness and passion, ''l could forgive him what he said about the senator from New York (Mr. Murphy and for what he Martin), but cannot forgive him for the cruel, mean, contemptible, malicious att tack which he made on the senator from North Dakota (Mr. Roach). lApplause.l
 s'The senator said thdt he had no pleas ure in attacking MT. Roach, but. l do not believe that a single senator who heard him say it believed a single word of it. A hyepa that was seeking to tear woman limb from limb might just as we'll turn round and say that 1t took no pleasure in the attacks. and would believe the hyena just as quickly as I would the senator from Hamn9hlre- II,anUhfar-
 Have you forgotten what took place in 1876? Have you forgotten what party it was that cheated Samuel J. Tilden out of the presidency, to which he was elected by conduct of our frienc Mr. Chandler, when he went to Florida to steal that state rom the democracy and give it to the republican partyf tSome applause from the gallery.1 He is the last man in tue world to make charges against the democratic party. 1 hate a hypocrite beyond all other men. do not like the man who stands up and says, Il am hollier than thou.' The sena- tor from New Hampshire need not deceive himself. His party has not come here to stay, as the democratic party is the party of the people, the party of tue con- stitution, the party which believes in equal rights and equsl privileges, in hon. est elections and in fair play. That party, though now temporarily in the minority, will certainly rise again and probably Hampshire imagines." Applause from the galleries.]
 MT. Martin, democrat, of Kansas, rose to reply to MT. Chandler, but was advised by Mr. Cockrell to pay no attention to Mr, Chandler's spaper pellets." He declined, however, to act on that advice and pro- ceeded to speak in: the bitterest tones and harshest words of Mir. Chandler. If the statements which he had heard of that senator were true or half true. "instead of the magnificent common. wealth of New Hampshire in the senate of the United States he should be in the pen-
