"A question Of privilege" and sent to
the clerks desk a resolution for the rec
ognition OF the bellgerency Of the Gu
bans.
The gentleman should state his ques-
tion." Dingley interpased
This Lewis began To do. saying that
the senate had recently passed such a
resolution and that the house should
take II up. Dingley made the point
that this was not a privileged question.
but Speaker Reed said nothing, and
Lewis proceeded with a parliamentary
argument. He contended that any
question dealing with the foreign rela-
tions OF the government was one of the
highest privilege. In support of this
position. Lewis quoted Fox In the Brit
ish parliament; Henry Clay In lses on
the question OF recognition OF the Span
ish republics, and a resolution relating
To Hawaii which Dingley had attempt
ed to call up in the second session OF the
Fifty-third congress and against which
McCreery OF Kentucky had attempted
TO make point of order. IL had then
been reported. he said. that the present
speaker held that a question Of foreign
relations was always privileged ques-
tion.
The speaker permitted the resolution
TO he read. II follows:
Whereas. The United States senate
assembled has duly. by a proper form
OF resolution. declared for a state OF
neutrality, according To the island OF
Cuba all rights as "a belligerent against
Spain; and.
Whereas. II Is asserted that such
right Of recognition exists only with the
executive OF the United States, there
fore. he IL
Resolved, by the house OF represent
atves. that as "a foreign policy OF the
United States, IL Is the right and au-
thority OF the senate and the house In
adopting foreign policy of the United
States to recognize. as congress, the
belligerency of and declare the attitude
OF neutrality of the United States to the
island Of Cuba or any other govern
ment or country when in the sense OF
the house such course Is demanded by
existing conditions"
The resolution having been read. Reed
promptly declared II out Of order.
such "A resolution can he introduced
In the regular course and can he re-
ferred to a committee he said.
Does the speaker hold the resolution
should be referred to some committee
that Is yet To be appointed Lewis In
qulred.
Certainly" replied Reed.
From this ruling Lewis appealed, and
Dingley's motion to table the appeal
was carried-91 to 81.
ON roll call the speaker was sus-
tained by vote of 81 to 81. Present
and not voting. IL. He announced no
quorum" Immediately Dingley moved
to adjourn, and while several demo-
crats were shouting for recognition the
motion was carried by IL party vote,
and AT 1855 y. m. the house adjourned
to Monday.

San Francisco. May 27.-A letter was
received to-day from W. 7. Bryant, the
old soldier who recently swore to a
sensational affidavit 10 the effect that
he saw Rev. j. q. Gibson, pastor Of
Emanuel church. carrying the body ot
woman up TO the beltrv on the date
Of the Blanche Lamont murder. which
effectually disDOses OF that document.
and proves the unreliabillty OF tho
writer. Although this letter was mailed
at Monte Vista. Col. four days after
Bryant made his affidavit. he states he
never saw either Gibson or Durrant to
his knowledge. but that two women.
Hester Hicks and Henrietta Bigsby.
had offered him 5000 to swear that he
was in the church at the time when
the murder was committed and that
Gibson committed the crime. Nothing
is known Of either woman. and In the
light OF recent events Chief Lees has no
hesitancy in pronounclng Bryant a pro-
digious liar.

PACIFIC ROADS.
a New Bill Introduced to Settle the
Indebtedness.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 49, - Senator
Gear of the Pacific railroads committee
today introduced a new bill for the set
tlement of the Pacific railroad indebted
ness. 1t proposes that the secretary of
the treasury, the secretary of in interior
and the Encouragement shall conSti
tute a commission with all power to
make settlement of the indebtedness
to the government of all bond-aided
Pacific roads, upon such terms and i'll
such manner as may be agreed upon by
them or a majority of them, and pro-
vides that any settlement shall be APP
proved by the president, and unless ap-
proved by him shall not be binding.
The commission is empowered to ad-
minister oaths, summon witnesses, etc,
and it is required to report action taken
Within sixty days after the assembling
of the next regular session of congress.
The Pacific roads are required to ac-
cept the following as a part of any set
tlement agreed upon:
That each of the companies accept
ing the provisions of the act shall keep
its railroad and telegraph line in repair
and use and shall at al ltimes transmit
dispatches over said telegraph line and
transport mail, troops and munitions of
war, supplies and public stores upon
said railroad for the government when
ever required to dO so by any depart
ment thereof, and the government shall
at all times have the preference in the
use of the same for the purposes afore-
said at reasonable rates of compensation,
not to exceed the amounts paid by pri-
vate parties for the same kind of service,
and that said companies and their sue
cesSorS shall cooperate in making track
connections with all railroads of other
companies to points of junction with
their roads, and at any point where two
or more roads shall connect with their
road they shall afford to all such equal
terms, rates and facilities for the inter-
change of traffic, both passenger and
freight land any contract or arronge-
ment by sale, lease, consolidation through
car service or otherwise intended by or
resulting in any preference or advantage
whatsoever to any such connecting rail-
road to any prejudice or disadvantage
whatsoever is hereby declared to be un-
lawful

ated to carry out the provisions of the
bill.

power was the most complete represen-
tative of a cousrtry's sovereignty, and
that as recognition was sovereign act
st properly belonged to the law-making
branch. The views of Secretary Seward
unfolding this principle were cited. The
only exclusive sovereign power of the
president was in granting pardons. The
recognition of foreign governments here
tofore given by the president had be-
come effective, Mr.. Bacon said, through
the silent acQuiescence of the law-mak
ing power
Mr.. Bacon declared that the logical
result of this claim of exclusive power
in the president was to make him greater
in arbitrary power than any monarch
on earth 1t would permit him. in case
of a trifing uprising in Manitoba, to
recognize handful of people as consti-
,tuting an actual government; while, on
the other hand, he could withhold recog-
milton from Cuba, although Cuban inde-
pendence had become an accomplished
fact. But the senator maintained that
no such power was given by the consti-
tuition to the president In the most
public manner, Mr.. Bacon said, the Sec
retary of state had denied the power of
Congress and had announced to the
world that if congress adopted the Gu
ban resolution it would be vetoed by the
president. 1t was practically an an
nouncemeHt to congress that it's resolu-
tion, If acted upon, would be thrown
back in its face. Never before was such
defiance of congress presented, and if
it was to stand without protest there
would be at least one conspicuous pre-
cedent for the assertion of exclusive
executive power
At the conclusion of Mr.. Bacon's speech
the senate at $40 pm. adjourned.
