encd to clear the galleries. The mingled
confusion, debate and excitement on the
floor Of the senate and in the galleries last
cd until after midnight.
Rapid progress was made on the legis-
latlve, executive and judicial appropria-
tion bill at the night session of the senate.
Mr.. Dubois of Iowa sought to strike out
the appropriation for the Utah commission
and to provide that the suppression Of
bigamy and polygamy hereafter be prose
cuted under the laws of Utah. Mr.. Du-
bois urged that the polygamous condition
of Utah was a thing of the past and that
the local authorities might well be intrust-
cd with the affairs Of tho state.
Mr.. Faulkner of West Virginia, of the
committee on territories, in response toan
inquiry from Mr. Mandorson, said IL was
expected that Utah would become a state
by November next under the enabling act
heretofore polled. The Dubois amendment
was finally ruled out on point of order.
The appropriation bill was temporarily
| laid aside to permit Mr. Chandler of New
Hampshire to make speech on recent
election methods OF the Democratic party.
Mr. Chandler took up the election OF a
number of Democratic senators. Concern
ing the election of Mr.. Murphy Of New
| York, Mr. Chandler did not question its
/ legislative regularity, but declared that il
| Vas brought about by a gerrymander and
| farious forms Of eloctioneering larceny, in
which he indicated that the then governor
and present senior senator from Now York
was concerned. As to the election Of Mr.
Martin of Kansas, Mr.. Chandler said the
senator, although Democrat, had made a
"close connection with the Populst MEM
bers Of the Kansas legislature, and on be-
/ oil
| ocratic patronage which the state of Kan
sas received from the national administra-
ton
Mr. Chandler Attacks Roach.
The populists of Kansas were thus de-
coiyod "Thcy cheated TO get him in, -
said Mr. Chandler, "and the results have
been what might have been expected.
As To the scat now occupied by Mr..
Roach of North Dakota, Mr. Chandler dc
clarcd il would be filled by Republican
if there had not been the hasest manipula-
tion in the North Dakota legislature, In
which the speaker OF the house and hi,
confodoratcs had participated. The speaker
had subsequently como to Washington, an
outcast from his home asking an oilio,
from President Cleveland. and not getting
it had gone no one knew where, dishonor
cd and despisod
Mr. Chandler bitterly denounced the
TRAITORS" of that transaction. He ther
took up the Investigation which the sen
ate began as To the private record of Mr.
Roach. and read from The Congressional
Record To show how action ON the invos
tigtion had been avoided And so,
said Mr. Chandler the former cashier %
the Citizens National bank of Washington
continues 10 occupy seat as Democrau
senatOr. "
Mr.. Roach sat at his desk throughou
the severe arraignment. Mr. MOrg.u
sought TO intcrpose a question as to tn
regularity Of Mr.. Chnndler's speech as
matter Of order The vice president he'll
, IL To be In order. Mr.. Cockrell ondeavore
to break the force of the speech by rcnark
ing There is no reason why such
harmless speech should not proceed.
Resuming, Mr.. Chandler referred TO MI
Morgan's point of order, and said h
4 would assure the Alabama senator he di
: not intend 20 touch upon Alabama elol
ton frauds. as il would take too muc
y time "Tou have already touched upo
them through your mouthpiece, n
sponded Mr. Morgan, land ! have troate
your attack with contempt and disdain.
q Nir. Chandler then reviewed In detail I'll

u the election OF Mr.. Martin, and declare
I, that IL made as vicious record as W.
ever presented i'm electioneering fraui
"He is still here " said Mr.. Chandle
