Washington, Jan. 29.—1 n the house Mr. Barrows asked that unanimous con sent be given members who had amend ments which they desired to offer to the tariff bill and which they had no oppor tunity to offer, and to print them in The Record. Mr. McMillin objected, saying that if amendments cou}d not Le offered in the house, they should not cumber The Record. Messrs. Burrows and Reed appealed to Mr. McMillin to withdraw his objec tion, but he persisted. Mr. Reed said it was unjust and em barrassing to members to be deprived of this privilege; for, in no other way could their constituents know that their tail- ' tire to get amendments in was not their ’ fault. Mr. Barrows said the privilege had been extended to members in the Fifty first congress Chairman McCreary presented the re port of the foreign affairs committee on •the Hawaiian resolution.

A resolution was offered to Mr. Stew art declaring it to be the sense of the senate that the secretary of the treasury' has no legal authority to issue and soil bonds as proposed.

These drafts were issued several mouths ago. when the firms had good credit, but were re illy in embarrassed circumstances. Aoout the time the drafts came due the firms failed.

I'M van fornia International Midwinter exposi tion opened at noon Saturday, and San Francisco celebrated thegreatestholiday in her existence. Her streets were gayly decorated. Flags and banners were fly ing from thousands of staffs. The ships in the harbor wei;e adorned with the standards of many nations. Public am private business was at a standstill nud every road leading to the Golden Gati and the fair grounds was crowded w,th visitors. Many had crossed the conti nent to be here, and thousands nrr.ved from all parts of Caliiornia and the Pa cific coast at large. The official programme, which in cluded a great street parade followed by dedicatory exercises at the fair grounds, was carried out in detail. At daybreak a heavy fog hung over the city. At 7 o’clock it was hardly possible to ds tinguish objects across the street. The fog gradually lifted, however, and at 9 o’clock the sun broke through mists and the day soon became perfect. Tiie bright, warm sunshine greeted ths thou sands of people on the streets and at the fair grounds, and when the exposition was lortnally opened at noon a cloudless sky and springlike weather added to the success of the occasion. Governor Markham had declared the day a legal holiday throughout the state and it was observed as such. Shortly after 10.a. ni. the parade, un der command of General Dickinson, started for the fair grounds. In the procession were four regiments of the National Guard, regular army troops from the Presidio, Governor Markham and staff, the fair official*, civic socie ties, and many of the concessional fea tures. , . Golden Gate avenue, the main arive to the park, was thronged with specta tors. who listened to the stirring music of numerous bands and cheered as the long line of mon marched by. It was soon after 12 o’clock when the procession reached the fair grounds and assembled on the recreation grounds, where a huge grandstand had been ere> 1 ted near Festival hail. • Governor Markham in hi? speech wel o coined the people to the fair, aud ex tended to tho strangers from other sec- □ tions of the countrj’ the freedom of the 0 entire state. Th? governor said, al- # though California avas the first state m ’ the Union to appropriate money for an f exhibit at the World’s Fair in Chicago, L and att’ioug'ii 1 v.’;w won- p derful and complete, yet many Uauior ■. niaas who visited the Columbian exposi- L tion were I'qrcibly impressed with the I. fact that it is utterly impossible to trans i. plant California to Chicago. An 1 while . the building and contents and the vari p ons exhibits in many deportments ex cited lidmiration and congratulation, . Californians knew that California was a not thoroughly represented. . Direqtor-i.Teneral De Young spoke of . the obstacles encountered at the incep j tion of the enterprise, and explained 3 how they had been overcome. He said: The world has turned her eyes towards . us, and our growing state has been the subject of discussion at millions of fire sides. If we go no further than we have today, it has been a paying investment. Possessing, as we do one of the most won -1 derful states in the Union, a state with , unlimited resources, a state wit h 35,000,(W0 | areea ofuirable lands, of which but one teutji are cultivated, this one tenth’ has I i placed us as the leading hort icultcr.il state 1 ! in the Union, and which will, with in creased development, produce the greatest ’ empire state or country on the face of the globe. With 80,000,009 acres yet undevel ' oped, what we want is population and cap ital-population to develop our unim proved land and capital to assist it. What will bring these? Not one movement or effort, but many. There can be bitt one result to this exposition, and that is an in crease in our population, ami an increase ;in our capital for the people. And capi ; tansts have only to learn where to invest j to take advantage of the opportunity. . By this exposition we will have a chance ' to show thousands of people who have never been within onr borders before, by ' ocular demonstration, the resources and ! capabilities of our state. It was at the close of Director General De Young’s speech that Mrs. De Young ' rose to set the machinery of the fair iu motion by pressing au electric button. She was greeted with a cheer when she stepped forward. As she stood with hand poised there was a moment of dead silence. Then her hand fell, and in an , instant silence turned into pandemo nium. Steam whistles blew, bands played the “Star Spangled Banner,” salutes were fired,by cannons, aud above all was heard the deep roar from a thousand hu man throats. _ There was to have been another ora tion and more music, but the crowd did not wait for them. It melted away like magic, and joined the other thousands in the inspection of the marvellous eights to be seen in the various build ings. There was not an accident or hitch in the proceedings during the en tire day. A large force of city police as sisted the Midwinter guard. FRENCHMETsI SURPRISED. Comments of the Press on the Bismarck Affair not Understood. Paris, Jan. 29.—Paris is surprised at the treatment of the Bismarck apotheosis by the French press. The treatment is explained by the fact that three weeks ngo Russian agents apprised the French minister of the impending event and of the causes compelling it. Comments were therefore regulated by secrect in structions sent from the ministry. There was a ludicrous similarity of utterance in all the organs of public opinion. But, while they were couched in almost contemptuous terms, the real opinion of the journalists was that Em peror William was forced to intrench himself in the popular good will risking the chances of the policy tb • he holds mast at heart, and which is a! >ost > certain to end in war.

J Mr. Clercland Allovrs Hie Anxious to Wait a Lohg Time# Washington, Jan. 27.—The fact ha® been noted that the president is sending very few nominations to the senate these days, and that confirmations by the sea ate are being mad# slowly. There has been a most marked falling off in both respects since the rejection by the senate of the nomination of Judge Hornblower for justice of the supreme court of th# United States, and of J. Scott Harrison for the surveyor of the port of Kansas City. So far, during the week, the president has sent to the senate only one nomina tion, that of Mr. Peckham, to be asso ciate justice, and while the senate has held two or three brief executive ses sions only a very few confirmations have been announced. It is also a well known fact that there is scarcely an inqiortant committee of the senate which has not one or more nominations hung up there, because of tho objections of senators and Others. A large number ’of nominations from New York, one from Missourio, South Carolina, Illinois and many other states, which were made before the Christmas holidays, remain still in the committee. Appraiser Bunn, of New York; Col lector Simmons, of North Carolina, and the Topeka postmiuier are included in the list of appointments of long stand ing which have not received attention. It is the general belief about the senate that the nominations will come in morn rapidly after the Peckham nomination is disposed of.
