IN CONGRESS,
Senator Blanchard Wants
the Sugar Bounty
Paid for 1894.
THE NEED OF NEW RULES
The Official Letter* of Admiral Walker
and Information Concerning the Attitude
of Nicaragua Called For—The Dedication
of Chlcamangt and Chattanooga National
Park—military Park at the Battle Field
of Shiloh.
Washington, Dec 4—The senate wae
in session (or only half an hour today
as the leaders of the majority desired
to canons on the general order of bos'-
ness before proceeding with the bnsl
ness itself. There was time enough,
however, for Mr. Lodge of Massachu-
setts, to have passed two resolutions
for information which promise to bring
the Hawaiian and Blnefleld’a incidents
before oodgrees for oomnieat and pro-
bably orltioism.
There was the nsual delnge of bills
and petitions inoident to the opening
days of a session. None of them, how-
ever, being of pnblio importance.
When the senate oouvened today, a
large number of bills, petitions and
memorials were presented, most of
them of a looal ohar&oter.
Blanohard of Lonlsiana, offered a
resolution reciting the olroamstanoes
under whioh the sugar bonnty was ont
off after the sngar orop of 1894 was put
in. It directed the committee on ap-
propriations to Inolude in the urgency
deficiency bill, a earn eafflolent to pay
the bonnty the present year. The bill
went over.
Vest of Mifsjuri, offered bu amend-
ment to the rales with a view to cutting
off praoticed debates. It provides that
after a measure has been debated thir-
ty days it will be in order for any sen-
ator to move to fix the day for a final
vote. This motion to be pat Without
d ©bate or delay and if oarried, the orig
in al question is to be voted on at the
time fixed. Vest said he would address
the senate tomorrow on the need of
this rule.
The senate adjourned at 12:11 and
the Demooratio senators went into
caucus.
The oauous adjourned without oom-
ing to any oonoluston in the matter be
fore it. The entire time was direoted
to a dlsonssion of a proposition to
charge the rales. The sentiment seem
ed to be about equally divided, bat
the opposition was sufficient to con-
vince a majority of the oanous that no
change of rules was to be made.
The senate committee on flnanoe was
in session <n hoar bat did not agree to
any course of aotiou on any of the
more important financial or tariff bills
before the senate. The Republican
members intimated a majority of the
Republicans would stand against any
piecemeal amendment of the tariff at
present.
Lodge of Massachusetts, offered a
resolution which was acoepted without
dissent, oalllng on the secretary of the
navy for the offlolal letters of Admiral
Walker while in oommand of the Unit-
ed States vessels at Hawaii. Lodge
raised another international question
by a resolution calling on the presi
dent for correspondence concerning
Blnefields and information oonoerning
the attitude of Nicaragua. The reso-
lution was adopted without comment.
Quay offered resolutions of respect
to the memory of Mission B. Wight,
late member of congress from Pennsyl-
vania and ae a farther mark of respoot
the senate at 12:39 adjourned.
The Hone*.
Washington, Deo 4—The session of
the house today wae exceedingly dnll
and uninteresting. The attendance
was small and there wae no olaih of
any kind A bill providing for the
dedication of the Ohioamanga and
Obatanooga parks in September, 1895,
and one for the establishment of a
natioual military park on the sight of
the battle of Shiloh were passed. The
remainder of the day was devoted to a
fruitless dlsonssion of the printing
bills.
There were exactly one hundred
members on the floor when the house
met at noon today. The Democratic
leaders decided just before the house
was called to order to plnnge immedl
ataly into routine business.
Onthwaite from the committee on
military affairs called up the bill for
the dedication of the Ohloaimauga and
Ohattanooga national park. The bill
appropriates 1200,000. The date of
the dedication was fixed or Sept. 19
and 20, 1895. The bill wae passed.
Onthwaite then called np the bill
introduced gby Anderson of Iowa, for
the establishment of a national park a",
the battle field of Shiloh It carries
an appropriation of $150,000.
Options for the land on an average of
$12 an aote has been seonred. The bill
provides for a commission of three
from the armleH of the Tennessee,
Ohio and Mississippi. After adoption
of an amendment reducing the appro-
priation of $75,000 the bill passed
Mr. Richardson ooonpled the hoar
explatnlrg the minute details of the
oonferenoe report, whioh was sn' sa
qnentiy attacked by Mr. Dnnn of New
Jersey.
After farther debate the report went
over and the house at 3:55 p. m. ad-
journed until tomorrow.
KtpriHiitMlTN Confer.
Washington, Deo. 4—Representative
Oox of Tennessee, of the banking and
onrrenoy oommittee, and Representa-
tive Bland, chairman of the ooinage,
weights and measures oommittee, held
a oonferenoe today and dlsonssed finan-
cial measures. Oox says his oommittee
will report some measure. Bland
maintains there is nothing to do bat to
pass a free ooinage bill. He voices the
sentiment of free silver men In the
honse, saying they favor uo financial
measure that dees not inolnde free
ootnsge.
In every part of tin honse today
there was general expression that
nothing more than talk would oome ont
t f all the financial propositions at this
session. _
Democratic Senator* in Canon*.
Washington, Deo. 4—The Democrats
of the senate spent three hoars in cau-
cus today and then adjourned without
taking action, to meet again Thursday
next. The entire time was devoted to
a dlsonssion of the situation and to
the wisest way of action for the Demo
oratlo party daring the present session
of congress.
The entire dlsonssion was based on a
series of resolutions presented by
Senator Daniel of Virginia, deolarlng
for a cloture, committing the party to
an abandonment of all efforts to
emend the tariff law and to an effort
to reform the onrrenoy in aooordanoe
with the suggestions in the president’s
message.
The resolution^ opened a wide range
of debate, in whioh many senators
participated.
Senator Voerhees opened the talk
with a suggestion to the effeot that the
wisest course lay in the abandonment
of any effort to pass the free raw ma-
terial bill (so oalie i) because of the
evident determination of the Repnbii
oans to prevent any aotion.
Senator Vest showed an inclination
towards cloture, contending if the
Democrats did not adopt it the Repnb
lioans would when they oame into
pow er.
Senator Morgan presented a plea for
a liberal allowance of time for the set-
tlement of the Nicaragua oanal bill.
While no aotion on any question was
taken by the oanous, the prevailing
sentiment, after the olo-e of the oan
ons, seemed to be that its ultimate de-
cision would be adverse to the entire
series of propositions presented by
Senator Daniel. The sentimeBt favor
able to oioture seemed qaite evenly
divided. There was also a strong ele-
ment favorable to tht passage of the
sngar bill, as reported by the finance
oommittee, striking one all differen-
tials on sugar and leaviag a straight
revenue duty of forty per oent advalo
rem, it was pointed out that if the at-
tempt should be mac's in thisdlreotion,
it would open up (he entire tariff ques-
tion. _
Senator Bill*.
Washington, Deo. 4—Senator Peffer
today introduced a number of bills.
One of these provides for the pnrohase
of silver at the market price with
greenbacks, the silver so pnrohased to
be coined into standard silver dollars
and both the silver and the
greenbacks to be used for the payment
of outstanding bonds. The titles of
the more importont of the other bills
lntrodnoed by Mr. Peffer are:

trol of freight railways; to rednoe the

a just and uniform oharge for oarryiug
freight; to prevent interruption of in-
terstate oommeroe by strikes; and to
seenre reasonable compensation to
railroad employes.”
“To authorize banking on capital
seonred by a pledge on real estate se-
curities; to seonre depositors against
lose; to enlarge the volume of circulat-
ing mouiy; to provide fora flexible
onrrenoy and to establish safe and
profitable depositories for the savings
of the pnblio."
“To relieve persons who have settled
on the pnblio lands and who have lost
their homes by reason of misfortunes
for whioh they are not responsible.”
“To repeal that part of the aot of

tion aot whioh authorized the sale of

Governor Bran’* Inaugural Addr***.
Columbia, S. O., Deo. 4—Gov. Evan’s
in his inaugural address today said:
“We are fast coming to the plight Ire-
land is in. Oar great plantations are
becoming merely hnntlng reserves of
the wealthy and labor year by year is
being ground to poverty and servitude.
The party that was trne to na is the
party we mast look to in the futnre or
suffer defeat from one extreme of the
land to another. Today not a Demo-
oratio state Is left north of the Mason
and Dixon line. The northeast seemed
deaftoonr appeals and the 'ray of
light’ whioh we hoped for in the west
has proved flokle ae an anrora borealis.
South Carolina has lead in every great
moral and politioal reform and It re-
mains for ns to set the paoe for the
nation whioh will ultimately bring re-
lief to thy entire people.”

to a tree, threatening him with death
if he made an oatory, and taking
Candee aronud near the entrance to
