Re ferred. The house then went into a committee of the whole (Hammond in the chain on the general deficiency bill. The remainder of the afternoon was consumed in a very uninteresting consider ation of the hill, most of the time being devoted to debate upon items relative to the house employes. The strongest oppo sition was manifested to the proposition granting an extra month’s pay to all employes of the house, but it was filially [ agreed to. After completing 68 of the ll'J I pages of the bill the committee rose and the house, at 5 o’clock, adjourned until Monday. Semite. Washington, July 3.—Hale, from the committee on appropriations reported back tlie naval appropriation bill with amendments, and stated that he hoped to have it taken up Tuesday next. George, from the judiciary committee, reported a hill to change the eastern and northern judicial districts of Texas. Calen dar. The senate resumed consideration of the river and harbor appropriation bill, nnd the reading the bill was proceeded with. Tlie reading of the bill being concluded, Beck introduced a bill to authorize the construction of bridges across the Tennes see and Cumberland rivers by the Ohio Valley railroad company. Referred. The senate then proceeded to vote on amendments to the river and harbor bill. The tirst amendment that provoked a dis cussion was that appropriating one million dollars for improving New York harbor so as to secure a thirty-foot channel at Sandy Hook entrance of the harbor upon such a plan as the secretary of war may approve. Tiie amendment was finally agreed to. The next amendment on which there was discussion was one appropriating f500,- 000 for the improvement of the Potomac river in the vicinity of Washington, with a proviso that no part of the sum should be expended upon or with reference to any place in respect to which tlie title of the United States was in doubt or in any which any clause adverse to tin- pursued by the two houses of congress, and, however uninformed bo nay be upon the| subject,Jund howev :y:..intentionally, by reason of a v_ ._ of knowledge, he may have misrepresented to the country the methods of legisla tion which have been pursued in like cases ever since congresses and par liaments have existed, and which have since parliaments became free, been safe from kingly and presidential interference, all the same, the people are misled by the unwarranted statement of the president as to the manner in which legislation upon pension claims and the like is, and of neces sity must be conducted.

An amendment reducing the appropria tion for improving tin Cumberland sound, in Georgia and Florida, from 8150,000 to jlOOJ'Ou was opposed by Call and was ascribed by liiguiis to itlie proverb that liie absent are always in the wrong. the application of it being that if Senator Jones, of Florida who is a member of the committee on commerce, had not been “temporarily' absent this item would .rot have been “temporartlv” reduced. A.Per a long dis cussion the amendment was agreed to. The amendment increasing the appro priation for Savannah, Gu., from £125,000 to £175,000 having bee.n reached, Brown moved to increase the amount to £200,000, ana advocated a motion wfcirh was'discuss ed at considerable leugLb. Ill tlie course of Ilia- discussion Ba ck declared that the trouble was that the government lnad too much money. The country would suffer more by ramson of the amount of money in the treasury, which was increasing every va-.AT by ’ taxation, khan it would if the government haai bare ly money enough to pay off tiie ordinary business. Duly £144,000,000 of Hie debt could be paid off before Septem ber, 1891, and fur that there w ere 224,000,- 000 lying idle in Hie treasury. Therefore he did not care whether this Dill appropri ated ten. fifteen or twenty millions, so long us the money was properly spent, and any thing was better than keeping it locked up in the treasury. If taxation could not be reduced and it dial not .stent that it could be 1, and if any profitable harbor work was to lie done -as at New York, Savan nah, G alveston or Wilmington, anal he was ill favor of ill, let the money be spent in tiiis way and get into the hands of the peo ple. He favored the amendment, and was not troubled about tlia; size of the bill, not a bit. Brown’s amendment was agreed to. The senate then at 1:25 went into secret session and afterwards adjourned till Tues day. Kla-laillaa Alfldlist il YaPi. Washington, .July 3.- The senate com mittee on pensions in its report recom mending the massage over tlie president’s veto of the bill granting a pension to Mary j. Nottage, says: .-jo great ha* become the number of such vetoes interposed by the present executive all within a few weeks past, and so extraordinary the cen sure. sometimes rudely expressed, and in nearly every instance severely implied, of the action of the two houses of congress and of their oommitti'os upon which lies devolved tlie wearisome and generally unappreciated labor of investigating these claims, aa’cAlimpanied in many eases by such ridicule of evident disgust with the claims themselves, that your commit tee feel that they are justified in making a brief review of the circumstances in volved. In doing this a strong effort W'ilJ lie maaie to restrain a not unnatural feel ing of indignation, which if permitted to assume the proportions which the provo cation justifies, would wholly destroy these respectful forms of expression which must lie obtained in official inter course between the different officers and departments of the government. This Becomes more neces sary in proportion as it is rendered more difficult by reason of the unjust and unex ampled style in which some of tlie mes sages of the president are expressed. It shall lie tin’ effort of the committee t<i get on in this difficult matter witimut violating the courtesies of official intercourse by im itating an example which so far as we are aware is without precedent, and which so far as we are concerned shall remain so.' The committee proceeds to show that 2-j per cent, oi tlie senate Dills and only 8* per cent, of the house hills sub- mitt..! to the president have been vetoed, and say it i not insensible to the special condemnation which this disparaging oontr.i'd inflicts. “Much criticism,” tliu report continues, “lias been indulged that tlie jurisdiction of the legislative j power of this government is larger than ! that of tiie commissioner of pensions, and j that sooner of later, although it may cost I the country a prolonged and steady effort, this truth will become apparent. But it should he remembered that in a very large .number of these Dills passed by congress important original written evidence is tiled with the committees or presented ' verbally, as in hearings li - lore other committees upon ah public questions which come before legis- I [alive bodies. Often the applicant is pres- j cut with his statement and his palpable disabilities. This evidence is not available ' to the executive, at least without asking, land never has been in possession of the ! pension office. Consequently in nearly every case the congressional statement, stands upon stronger proofthan the find ing of facts which the president sets up in disapproval of a bill.” Tin* Po-t.d t’Ii*rk Tnwhk Washington, July 3.—The attention of V mil iv.

It is a historic fact that no stockholder in this enterprise originally contemplated one cent of dividend, except in the gradual de velopment of a plan, the roan could be extended and made part of a paying sys tem; it was regarded as a Xroads store house which would be of great conven ience to local interests, and might, in the indefinite future, develop into a wholesale establishment.

The Luke Shore Strike. Chicago, July 3.—The same force of Pinkerton’s men were at the Root street i yards at Lake Shore this morning, but long i before they came out for duty from the city, switch engines were at work.

The round houses were deserted with the ex- 1 ception of two passenger engines, , and the yards presented a scene i of activity which denotes more business than has yet been attempted since the trouble began.
