Appropriation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The senate
shared the general sentiment of bellig-
erency prevalent, and, from the outset
of the session, the measures proposed
breathed spirit of patriotism and of
preparation for any emergency that
might arise concerning Venezuela.
The first bill introduced was that of
Mr. Chandler of New Hampshire, pro-
viding for an appropriation of 500, ,000,-
600 for heavy increase in the national
arGaament. This was quickly followed
by proposition authorizing the secre-
tary Of war to purchase late device of
heavy battery and for report ON the
feasibility of equipping for service the
old ship Constitution. Mr.. Hill of New
York added to the suggestions of de-
fense by asking immediate considera-
tion of a bill making ex-Confederates
eligible to service in the army and navy.
No Decisive Action Taken.
Aside from these steps inaugurating
legislation the day passed without de-
cisive action ON the Venezuela ques.
tion. The first investigation of the ses-
sion was started by the passage of Mr.
Calls long pending resolution for an in
quiry into alleged corporate influences
operating in the election of United
States senators and representatives. AS
further expression on the subject of
British encroachments the senate
agreed to a resolution introduced by
Mr.. Davis, calling on the president for
information as to British or Canadian
occupation, military or civil, of any part
of the United States territory of Alaska
Throughout the day the senate galleries
were crowded beyond their capacity,
showing the keen public interest in an
ticipated developments on the British.

CAPTAIN BASSETT DEAD.

Was an Employe of the United States
Senate For Sixty-four Years.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Captain Isaac
Bassett, the venerable assistant door
keeper of the senate, died during the
afternoon.
Captain Isaac Bassett, "the father of
the senate" spent his entire career as 8
senate employe. He enjoyed the dis
tinction of being the second page ap-
pointed in the senate and the last Off.
Ger of that body elected by ballot, all
subsequent offices being filled by ap-
pointment. He was appointed a page
at the age of II and during the subse-
quent ia years of service he became
messenger and finally assistant door
keeper, or assistant sergeant-at-arms,
the latter two offices being identical.

Irish National Alliance Places 1OO, 200
Men at the Pre- .idents Disposal.

Irish National Alliance Places 100000
Men at the Pre.idsnt's Disposal.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1S.-The following
manifesto has been issued by the execu-
tive council Of the Irish National Alli-
hnce of America and a copy of it has
been sent to President Cleveland:
1t has been publicly charged that the
policy of the Irish National Alliance is
an Irish policy Of hatred to England,
and is therefore contrary to the inter
ests of America. This calls in question
the loyalty to the republic of our peo-
pie. We declare it incontrovertible
that no more bitter, more perfdious or
more unrelenting enemy than Great
Britain to the United States has ever
existed. England has ever been the
vengeful Foe of American Liberty
and Republican institutions. Imbued
with this conviction and seeing that
Great Britain has avowed her intention
to trample upon the Monroe doctrine
by her attempt to rob Venezuela of her
territory, and has dared to violate the
integrity of our territory in Alaska, we
hereby offer, as proof OF our loyalty
and devotion to the country of which
we are citizens, to place at the disposal
of the president of the United States
without delay 100000 soldiers, as brave
as have ever shouldered rife, and
every man of whom is believer i'll the
principles and teaching of the Irish
National Alliance

THE HOUSE TAKES ACTION.
Authorizes the President to Appoint a
Com mission.

Com mission.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The days
session of the house did not last an
hour, but it sufficed for the passage of a
bill authorizing the president to appoint
commission to investigate the Vene-
zuelan boundary and appropriating
100000 for the expenses of the COM
mission. The bill, which carries into
effect the recommendations of the pres
ident's message, was prepared by Mr..
Hit (Rep., Ills. }, and met the approval
of Speaker Reed. Although several
Republican leaders expressed themselves
in conversation as favoring the reference
of the message to the committee on for
eign affairs for a report, Mr.. Boutelle
of Maine was the only one who voiced
the view ON the floor. Speeches for
the bill were made by Mr.. Hit and Mr..
Crisp and attempted by other members
who could not secure recognition.
There was no vote against it and con-
siderable applause was given to the
patriotic references in the speeches.
The house decided to have its holiday
recess extend from Friday, Dec. 20, to
Friday, Jan. 3, a vacation of two weeks.
There will be but one more session be-
fore the holidays, that on Friday next,
when Speaker Reed will announce
house committees.

FOREIGNERS FEEL EASIER.
Nearly All the Extra Guard Ships I'm

CoNsrANTINoPLE,. Dec. lS.-United
States Minister Terrell received advices
from Caesarea and Adana during the
day announcing the safety of American
missionaries at those places. All the
extra guardships except the German
one are now in the Bosphorous and the
foreign population of this city and
vicinity breaths somewhat easier. The
streets are still thoroughly patrolled
by the military police, and the troops
here have have been reinforced. This,
however, does not dispel the fear
that the end is not yet. The exchange
of notes between the ambassadors and
the porte continues and there is said to
be much of an important nature in the
situation which remains to be told.
Much of this comforting, however, is
known to be in connection with the
sufferings and privstions of the home

the steps taken or to be taken for their

The Missouri National Guard Ready to
Respond.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. JS.-A meeting of
the officers and members of the First
infantry, Missouri national guard, was
held during the evening, and as a
result Colonel Edwin Bolder, command
ing, sent the following telegram to
Washington: .-..
ITO His Excellency, the President of
the United States: The First regiment
infantry, national guard of Missouri, is
a firm believer in the Monroe doctrine;
America, North, South, East and West,
for Americans. And its officers and
men request their colonel to inform
you, sir, that at the first call to arms
the First Missouri will respond 1000

we are, nevertheless, driven to the con.
clusion that the concessions this coun-
try is so imperiously summoned to
make are such rs no self-respecting
nation, least of all one ruling an empire
that has its roots in every quarter of
the globe, could possibly submit to. The
United States themselves would never
for moment dream of yielding to this
kind OF dictation. We are of the same
blood and shall not be less careful of
our national honor.
Says Americans VIII Not Indorss 1t.
The Daily Graphic says: The epitaph
Of the Monroe doctrine has been writ
ten in the Venezuelan correspondence
President Cleveland's message is a doc
ument which self-respecting Americans
will not read with either pride or pleas
ure. 1t only serves to illustrate another
of the inherent absurdities of the mod
ern Interpretation of the Monroe doc
trine.
The Standard, the Conservative or
gan, says: The position President
Cleveland assumes is preposterous. No
American citizen would for moment
dream Of admitting its soundness in
any analogous case in which the honor
md interests of America were con-
cerned. There can be but one answer.

WASHINGTON, Dec. While the
time of the house was mainly absorbed
in debate On the Republican plan to
create three committees of nine men,
bers each to deal with the election con-
tests, its interest was centered upon the
presidents message. The debate on
the election committee plan was fruit
full of partisan discussion OF election
methods in the house and the Repubh-
can policy of dealing with contests in
the Fifty-first congress. The plan was
adopted by a party vote. The presi-
dents message laid on the table until
late in the evening, when it was read
and received with much enthusiasm by
members of both parties.

This matter was brought up in connec-

cal state of affairs, adjourn for the holi-

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-The presi-

ton occupied the main attention of the
senate during it's brief session. Secre-
tary Coy read the document amid inn
pressive silence and the senators fol-
lowed every word with intense interest.
The concluding sentence of the message
was no sooner read than demonstra-
ton occurred almost unparalleled in
the history of the upper branch of con-
gress, senators on both sides of the
chamber joining in their expressions of
approval by long continued handicap
ping, The message and accompanying
documents were at once referred to the
committee on foreign relations, and be-
yond the reading of the document no
debate or reference to it occurred dur
ing the session.
