Congressional.

WASHINGTON, April 16.-At 2:35
o'clock this afternoon the PETER reso-
luton for the investigation of bond
sales was laid before the Senate, and
a struggle for precedence occurred,
Cullom, Allison and Hale urging the
appropriation bills. 1t was finally
decided to consider the bond resolu-
ton. Hill Of New York took the
floor to oppose the resolution. He
said this WAS Populist resolution
and no ono had u better right to con
troll it than PETER. 1t was Popuistic
and hostile to the issue Of all bonds.
Hill declared an investigation was
proposed without any charge or
grounds or imputing wrong doing.
PETER wanted the bond investigation
because he thought there was popular
curiosity about the bond issues.
Senators, who wanted bond investi-
cations should have made SPECIFICATIONS
The course was extraordinary and
was taken because no one wanted to
be responsible when 1t was found
nothing wrong had been done. 1t
was preferred to take the gossip of the
street and newspaper insinuations
rather than actual well known facts.
