O’Neill, of Pennsylvania, presented a pe
tition signed by 1000 Knights of Labor of
the twenty-second congressional district of
Pennsylvania urging the passage of the
bills now pending before congress calcu
lated to protect, the interests of labor. 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.

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

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

From the Atlanta Capitol we notice an

It is a mistake, already too far indulged

“This indicates,” the committee says,
“unmistakably that the president relies
upon the commissioner for his facts.” The
report continues: “Why the president
should imitate this gain of the shuttle

the government with vetoes bused upon a

United States had been made. The dis
cussion was enUrely devoted tc the pro
viso, the necessity ran’ it being two claims
to laud reclaimed from the rider, 011 the
part of the KidweiJ claimants, and the
other 011 the part of the Chex.peake and
Ohio canal company. Til is Amendment
also was agreed 10.
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.

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.”

regarding the business methods ol Hiehard

the holder of lar^c* trusts. As the result of
an investigation heyun at that time, Mr.

tainly, in the whole system of railroads of
this country, it will be vain to look for
gentlemen, who privately and officially
have established for themselves a higher
reputation—established it, despite the jeers
and innuendos of senseless criticism. 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. This is true and we all
know it.

fought it and struggled with it, ami kept it

sort of houses and live like gentlemen and
“lighting chickens,” if they want to, for
they have fought its battles and maintain

its estate and declaring it insolvent and
buying it in themselves as they could have
done. No, we deny it; there is no preju

country, but they have, as they deserve,
the highest esteem and considrration of
everybody whose opinion is worth a baubee

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. For
j the first time since the beginning of tlie
i strike, every Lake Shore engine in Chicago
' was called into requisition. 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. The town of Lake police
