PARTY FIGHTS IN CONGRESS
SENATE AND HOUSE BOTH ARENAS
OF SPIRITED FEELING.
No Significance Attached to the
EbullitiOn in the Latter Over Dis
franchisement Down South.

For the first time this session a party
fight broke out in Congress today. On the
Senate side there was q display of party
spirit over the army bill and on the House
side there was a partisan squabble with
some Of the old-fashioned spirit in 1t,
though no serious consequences were really
involved.
The situation which developed on the
House side was unexpected, leaders on
both sides having been taken by surprise
by Mr. Olmsted's resolution, for which he
claimed the highest privilege. providing for
an investigation of the facts with reference
to the abridgment OF the rights OF citizens
by certain of the southern states.
The majority membership OF the House
was not prepared for this question. and the
Speaker having held that the resolution
was privileged, an adjournment was forced
by the democrats.
There is said to be no real significance in
the incident, as 1t is not the policy of the
republicans to take the restriction of fran
chise by southern states into consideration
in the reapportionment under the new CEN
sus.
Some Of the republicans in the House are
not satisfied that the injustice which they
feel is done in those states should be over
looked, and the move OF Mr.. Olmsted was
intended to force the issue.
Probable Settlement.
committee will probably dispose of the
matter by citing the exhaustive treatment
of the subject by Garfield at the time of
the reapportionment under the ninth CEN
sus. t .ou
Mr.. Hopkins, chairman Of the census
committee. calls attention to this report by
Mr.. Garfield, in which It is held to be i'm
Oh acticable to strictly follow the fourteenth
amendment, since IT would not permit even
insane persons and persons not long enough
legal residents in a state to be deprived Of
the privilege Of voting; and that necessarily
every state in the Union violates this
amendment. -
Should it be determined that the course
Of the southern states in the abridgment Of
suffrage is too extreme, to be permitted to
continue without restraint, the action de-
cided on will probably not be taken by q
provision In the bill passed at this session,
but by means Of an amendatory act at the
next Congress. when there will be more
time and a larger republican majority.

The ferry steamer Tamalpais was turn
ed over to the owners-the North Pacific
Road-by the Union Iron Works some
three months ago but defective sheet
in the boilers caused her to be laid up
for repairs. Although she had been ac-
cepted by the Railroad company, the
strikers would not allow her boilers to
be repaired by any members of their
union. She was consequently laid up
until the RIsdon Iron Works volunteered
to repair her and she Is now at the Ris-
don Iron Works ship-yards receiving
repairs.
None of the other foundries in San
Francisco have made any effort to secure
men, but the Risdon Iron Works is help
ing them out on all of their urgent work.

of the Mississippi river was practically
rainless over night, according to the gov

responsible for to-day's advance, although
the country east of the river showed good
