tion on this course of procedure.
1t was sharply opposed, however,by
Messrs. Johnson, of Indiana, Mitchell,
of New York, and Newlapds, of Ne
vada. 1t was evident the committee
could not agree. A compromise was
made by which a bill covering the
presidents recommendations and the
bill of Secretary Gage and that of the
Indianapolis monetary commission
shall be taken UP at the first meeting
after the holidays. 1t was agreed,
also, that after hearing Secretary

introduced, was one by Mr.. Faulkner,

house today resolution for a holiday
recess from Saturday, December 1S, to
January 5, was offered by Mr.. Ding
ley, from the committee on ways and
means, and adopted.
The house then went into commit
tee of the whole, and resumed consid-
Grafton of the legislative, executive
and judicial appropriation bill.
Mr.. Livingston (dem. of Ga.,) sub
m,tted some general remarks in op-
position to the civil service law, which
he denounced as humbug and fraud.
The president today sent to the sem
ate a large list of nominations made
during the recess. It included seven
foreign ministers, eight consuls gen.
er&l a large number of consuls, as well
as many army and navy promotions.
The first matter which came before
the national board of trade at it's ses-
sion today was a resolution favoring
the establishment of postal savings
banks, which was introduced by the
Chicago board Of trade. 1t is stated
In the resolution that the people
should be encouraged to deposit their
savings in a department Of the ma
tional government. The passage OF
the resolution was advocated by MIR.
Lyon of Chicago, who said that the
secret of saving lies in beginning.
There must be an investment for such
savings, which would cultivate the
business habit, and in turn the person
would become capable of handling
money.
