sion or bigamy and polygamy shall
hereafter be prosecuted under the laws
OF Utah. Mr.. Dubois urged that the
polygamouS condition of Utah was
thing of the past, and that the local
authorities might we'll be trusted to
administer the affairs of the state
Mr.. Faulkner, of the committee on
territories, in response to an inquiry
from Mr.. Henderson, said it was ex-
pected that Utah would become a state
by November next, under the enabling
act heretofore passed.
ROAST FOR ROACH.
The appropriation was temporarily
laid aside to permit Mr.. Chandler to
make a speech on Recent Election
Methods of the Democratic Party"
He took up the election of a number
OF Democratic senators. Concerning
the election of Mr.. Murphy Oem., N.
" Mr.. Chandler did not question it's
legislative regularity, but declared it
was brought about by a gerrymander
and various forms of electioneering
larceny, in which he indicated that the
then governor of New York was con-
cerned. AS to the election of Mr.. Mar
tin (Dem., Kan.) Mr.. Chandler said
the senator, although a Democrat, had
made a 'close connection with the
Populist members of the Kansas Iegis-
lature, and on becoming a senator had
secured all the Democratic patronage
which the state of Kansas received
from the national administration The
Populists of Kansas were thus de-
ceived. '"They cheated to get him in"
said Mr.. Chandler, 'and the results
have been what might have been ex-
pected." AS to the seat now occupied
by Mr.. Roach Oem., n. ID Mr..
Chandler declared it would be filled by
Republican if there had not been
the basest manipulation, in which the
speaker of the house and his confed-
crates had participated. This speaker
had subsequently come to Washington,
a wanderer from his home, asking an
office from President Cleveland, and
not getting it, had gone no one knew
where, dishonored and despised.
Mr.-Ghandlar bittarlx den ouneed the
traitors of that transaction. He then
took UP the investigation which the
senate began as to the private record
of Mr.. Roach. and read from the Con-
gressional Record to show how action
and SO. said Mr.. Chandler, "the former
cashier of the Citizens National Bank
of Washington continues to occupy a
seat as Democratic senator
. MIR. Roach sat at his desk through
out the severe arraignment. Mr.. Nor
gan sought to interpose a question as
to the regularity of Mr.. Chandler's
speech as a matter of order The vice
hn11 20 h.
Mr.. Cockrell endeavored to break the
force of the speech by remarking:
There is no reason why such a harm
less speech should not proceed"
Resuming, Mr.. Chandler referred to
Mr.. Morgan's point of order and said
he would assure the Alabama senator
he did not intend to touch upon Ala
bama election frauds, as it would take
too much time.
you have already touched upon
them through your mouthpiece," re-
sponded Mr.. Morgan, land 1 have
treated your attack with contempt and
disdain."
ATTACKS MARTIN.
Mr.. Chandler then reviewed in de-
tail the proceedings of the Kansas
legislature in the election of Mr.. Mar
tin. and declared that it made as
vicious record. as was ever presented
in electioneering fraud. HE is still
here said Mr.. Chandler, "and will
remain until next Monday, when the
Democratic congress comes to an ig-
nominious end
AS to Mr.. Kyle and Mr.. Allen they
had acted with the Democrats of the
senate as Mr.. Pfeffer had at times act
ed with the Republicans, but Mr..
Chandler did not criticise these asser-
tions. But he said they made it pos
sible with the unlawful and fraud
ulent'' vote of Mr.. Martin and the vote
of Mr.. Roach, who should never have
remained in the senate one day after
the facts of his life We're known, for
the Democratic majority to be MAIN
tanned. Mr.. Chandler closed with
reference to Mr.. Gorman's recent fig
ure of speech that "a bow of promise
for Democracy was in the sky, which,
said the New Hampshire senator, was
merely a flash from the lower region.
HILL RAKES CHANDLER.
Mr.. Hill was at once on his feet when
Mr. Chandler finished. He said the
senate had witnessed an extraordinary
spectacle. The senator from New
Hampshire had been proceeding
through the courtesy of the senate. He
had evidently something on his stoml
ach and it was necessary to get rid of
the offensive bile" He had sought at
this closing hour of the session to stir
up some partisan bitterness.
But the spectacle that this senator
has presented tonight, indulging in
coarse statements against brother
senator, does him no good, and will do
his party no good,'' said Mr.. Hill We
hemently. He had heretofore ad-
mired the abilities of the New Hamp-
shire senator, but he must condemn
his course tonight. Hill was about to
take in detail Mr.. Chandler's state
ment when Mr.. Cockrell interposed
81 hope the senator from New York
will not take the speech of the senator
from New Hampshire as anything but
a joke" There was laughter from the
senators and spectators. Then Mr..
Chandler interposed II hope the sena-
tor will proceed. 1 have been trying
for two years to draw him out on New
York election methods
"And you have drawn me out" an
swered Mr.. Hill, "and before I am
through you may conclude it might
have been well not to draw me OUT
Mr.. Hill took up the reference Mr..
Chandler had made to Mr. Murphy
and reviewed in detail the political
changes of New York state up to the
election of Mr. Murphy.
Concerning reference of Mr. Chand-
Ter, Mr.. Hill declared that the Demo-
cratic national committee had taken
no part whatever of those senatorial
elections. Even Republicans newspa-
