AN ABLE EFFORT.
Arth. Browns Maiden speech IN
the senate.

the senate
Washington, June Senator Brown
today addressed the senate on the bono
bill He argued that the future issuing
of bonds by the secretary of the treasury
was unconstitutional and illegal, and
that the act of 1875 authorizing the sec
rotary of the treasury to issue bonds
was temporary in its nature, intended to
expire by Limitation at the time when
redemption should take place, viz, Jan
uary, 1879, and was limited by the
amount of legal tender notes then in
circulation, and by the purpose ex-
pressed in the act to provide for re-
demption. He declared that now the
secretary was issuing bonds to supply
the deficit in revenue and to accumulate
a surplus without limit; that such issue
of bonds was contrary to the provision
of the constitution giving congress mot
the executive) the power to borrow
money on the credit of the United
States and that assuming to borrow
money and issue bonds was usurpation
on the part of the executive. He said
the accumulated surplus encouraged
the passing of appropriations without
providing revenue to pay for them. 1t
prevented tariff lie gislation and legisla-
ton desired by congress in behalf of
silver, and that if the treasury was
empty congress could and would supply
the necessary revenue. He said that
the representatives of the people might
better be trusted to borrow money on
bonds than the executive. He discussed
the failure to take up for consideration
the substitute for the Dingley bill and |
said that the finance committee struck
out the Dingley bill and inserted a free
coinage substitute, and that the motion
10 consider it was a vote against free
silver by those that voted against con-
;idering the bill (the free coinage dem
ocrats and others). His speech Incl
ientally, argued for the free coinage of
liver and was a sharp arraignment and
criticism of the policy OF the single
,old standard advocates.
Mr. Brown spoke for nearly two hours
nd had not finished at the time of adj
ournm ent, but will continue his speech
omorrow. He received marked atten-
ion from senators on both sides of the
hamber.
Senator Sherman was an attentive :
nditor on the republican side, and Sen
tor Hill on the other side. +
The debate was enlivened by ques- !
ons and discussions from Senators
lien, Allison and HILL Mr.. Brown &C
uitted himself well, and although this i
as his maiden speech, he was able to n
old his own in the tits with such ex- y
srienced Legislators. \
Senator Brown received many warm :
,ng ratulations at the close of his speech
hich was considered by all to have ,
zen a very able one. =

MOrSan's Resolution.

Washington, June 3.-The senate COM
mittee on foreign relations did not take
action in its meeting today on Senator
Morgan's Cuban joint resolution. There
was no quorum until few minutes be-
fore the close of the meeting, when it
would have been impossible to have Sc
cured vote if there had been nothing
else in the way. 1t appeared from the
Informal discussion which took place
that some of the members of the COM
mittee which expressed sympathy with
the objects of the resolution, were
doubtful whether it would not cause the
Cubans and Americans in Cuba more
harm to report the resolution and have
the senate adjourn without action taken.
Senator Morgan, however, impressed
the Importance of the action and de-
clined to accept he opinion that the SEN
ate would not vote on the resolution if
it should have an opportunity to do so
before adjourning.

FOR AND AGAINST FILLED CHEESE.

Washington. May s.-The Senate Finance Com
mlttee to-day gave hearing to the interests az
fected by the filled cheese bill. which recently
passed the House. Jere VI. Wilson appeared in
behalf Of the manufacturers OF and dealers In the
article. He argued that filled cheese In Itself
a wholesome, pure article OF food that its manu-
facture and sale constituted a legitimate industry.
and that the exercise OF the taxing power OF the
Government invoked In the bill unjust DIS
elimination against IT. for the benefit OF rival
industry, and not for the public veal or benefit in
any sense
The bill was defended by Representative Tawney.
OF Minnesota, author OF the measure originally In
troduced in the House. He spoke OF the necessity
of the proposed legislation. which was found In
the statistics of and the reports OF con-
sus in Great Britain and Europe. Since the in

from the United States had fallen OF TO an alarm
ing degree and the manufacture OF the genuine
article had largely decreased; The producer OK
