Mr.. Burton of Ohio hung on the flank
of Mr.. Sherman of New York, who
had charge of the bill, and insisted Oh

succeeded in having several appropr1-

debate he furnished statistics on the
subject of Indian education, designed
to show that the more money the gov
eminent spent, the more helpless the
Indians became. The senate amend
ments to the bill to amend the bank

Madison, Jan, %.
An occasion of the utmost dignity
and formality and also a scene of
much beauty and large expression of
enthusiasm was the reelection of Sen
ator John C. Spooner Of Madison yes
terday noon by the joint convention of
senate and assembly in the chamber
of the latter body. Flowers and flags
gave decorative effect to the scene;
there was eclat in every part of the
program down to the smallest detail;
Senator Spooner never looked better
or greater. His speech was modest
in manner and in matter. Scarcely
once did he raise his voice above the
even tone of earnestness and dignity
with which he started and he made no
reference to the trials which have riy-
en- the party in Wisconsin. Two
things he said which may seem to fur
nish the belligerent stalwarts some
special satisfaction. Early in his re
