Senate Proceedings.

Washington Feb. 20.-Soon after the
Senate convened today, Mr.. Pettigrew,

agreed to, directing the committee on

printer had not delivered 70 the Sem

scendants OF the New York Indians who

award of the secretary Of the Interior
in favor OF the Cherokee Indians, re-
ferred 10 the court OF claims,
Consideration of the pOstotlice APP
preparation bill was resumed at the
conclusion of the routine business. The
pending question was the amendment
of Mr.. Butler On c., TO reduce the
pay OF railroads for carrying the mails
an aggregate Of about per cent. The
North Carolina senator continued his
speech begun on Monday.
Mr.. Butler said he would rather see
the ship subsidy bill become Il law than
to have the pending bill pass containing
the present provision for railway man
pay as under the pending appropriation
bill a bigger hole would be made In
the treasury than would be made by
the subsidy bill.
Mr.. Butler pointed out that accord
ing TO the report Of Prof. Adams, the
expert Of the postal commission, which
he was having read, IS per cent OF the
amount paid To the railroads for car
rying the mails actually was paid for
carrying mail pouches. He had often
wondered. he said why the leather and
the locks In the mails were so heavy.
1T seems. he said, that the rail-
roads have used their influence to
have them made heavy because they
are getting the same pay for carrying
them as they are getting for carrying
mail matter"
He thought there would be Just as
much sense in charging the weight OF
the car against the government
