Washington, Feb. 26,-The progress
made by the senate today In oounec-
“ n -it.n tile sundry civil uppropria-
“ bin was not very apprectaible, as
uv0 0 t the amendments reported
troB the committee on appropriations
were disposed of.

L* t o be disputed. The llrst was on
the protection of public lends from
miber depredations. The house had
Lioprlated 590.000 for that purpose,
appropriations committee hud
,commended a reduction to *60.000,
, jj r Berry (Democrat) of Arkansas
hid proposed an amendmmt to make

, u pled°nearly twv) hours. It was Anally

.(•publican) of Massachusetts wanted
nuke an exception against the sugar
ne producers of Louisiana on the
and that their senators, by voting
r the tariff act of 1894, rejected and
pudiated the sugar bounty. All Wiese
ie issues were either ruled out as
t 111 order or were voted down, and
cn the question wus taken squarely

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
Ajha^.had'to Innings In the house to-
SSH* the reBU *t that an arbltra-
tlon blH, recommended by the leaders
or the railway labor ongantzattons In the
eomitry. by Carroll D. Wrlgbt. the com-
nun loner of labor; and drawn In part by
Attorney General Olney, was sent to the
senate for its action. The bill was re
ported from the committee on labor by
air. Erdman (Democrat) of Pennsylva
nia, who explained its provisions In a
Drief statement to the house and an
swered questions that were put to him
by various members with regard to its
practical operation. Tho bill provides for
the appointment of a board of arbitration
of three persons to decide all controver
sies between common carriers engaged
in enter-state commerce and their em
ployes, which cannot be adjusted by mu
tual arrangement, and mukes the award
•of the board enforceable in the United
States courts, acting as courts of equity.
It wss stated by Mr. Erdman that In or
der to make the award effective, the va
rious labor organizations Interested had
agreed to become Incorporated concerns,
and as such subject to liability for dam
ages for failure to carry out the terms
of the award. The bill was advocated
by Mr. Hepburn (Republican) of Iowa
and various«members of the committee
on labor, and was opposed by Mr. Hen
drix (Democrat) of Now York and Mr.
van voornis (Republican) of New York.
The opposition, however, was Ineffective,
and after being slightly amended in com-
rafttee of the whole, the bill was reported
to the house with favorable recommen
dation and passed without a division.
A bill was also passed authorizing the
bureau of labor to Issue bi-monthly bul
letins In editions of 10,000 each and up.
on the subjects Investigated by the bu
reau.
A senate Joint resolution was agreed
to admitting free of duty articles Im
ported for exhibition at the exposition to
be held in Baltimore In 1897. In celebra
tion of the centennial of the Incorpora
tion of the city.
Mr. Oatchlngs reported from the com
mittee on rules an order setting apart to
day's session until 8 o'clock to consider
measures called up by the committee on
labor; that the session Wednesday, which
shall begin at 11 o'clock until 5 o'clock,
be given to the committee on public
buildings and grounds, appropriation bills,
all matters of privilege and motions to
suspend the rules, and pass bills, being
secured against the operation of the or
der.
The resolution was agreed to.
At 3:30, In pursuance of the order pre
viously agreed upon, the public business
was suspended and for tho remainder of
the day's session the house listened to
eulogies upon the life and services of the
late Representative Phillip Sydney Post
of Illinois.
Addresses were made by Messrs, iicn-
****** «nd Larie of Illinois, Grout of
Vermont, Bynum and Grosrjgor ^
Ohli*. Clarke and Wheeler of Alabama,
Brodeilck of Kansas. Dolllver of Iow *>
8toekdale of Mississippi. Boutell# of

galore, with no mud to speak of, and
the prospect of a continuance for the

throngs of the year 1893 will go down
on record as among the great audlen* ••«
that Have welted patiently to greet the
king. Yesterday’s ntten lane was not
a marker to that at today. Our < run-

"You»g men and Tf'IMi oiu ipso

termined to have a royal go.sl time.
When the king appeared he wus
greeted by the vast crowds with that
applause that was to b • axis Aed from
so loyal a community as the citizens
of the carnival city and their thou
sand* of .visitors. The procession . ,f
his majesty was a continual ovu'.lon
from start to finish. Tb subject

London, Feb. 26.—In the house of
commons today Robert L. Everett, lib
eral member from Woodbridge division
of Suftolk, Introduced «lie following
motif n: “That the house regards with
increasing apprehension the constant
fluctuation and growing divergence of
vuiucs of gold and allver and heartily
concurs In tbe rfecent expressions of
opinion of the pxvemments of France
and Germany in regard to' the serious
evils orirtng therefrom."
Ste-itking to ttie motion, Mr. Ev
erett appealed to Sir William Haroourt
to give heed to the real position of the
quv.M.on, put aside thorium and open
his eyes to the enormous revolution of
t he values which has not been brought
about by natural causes, but by legls-
■atlon. He expressed the hope that the
government would co-operate with the
other powers In an effort to bring back
n happier state of things wthleh existed
when the two metals stood upon a com
mon ratio.
England, Mr. Everett safld, tvno rich,
but that was no reason why she should
unjustly Increase the burden of other
state*. Surely, he saftl, she was not
lntard^od In the bankruncy of other
nation* which were owing her money;
but that was exactly what was going
on, an rohxr iwmijM ecnilntl* linlre*
something was done to chock It.
lion. Henry Chaplin, conservative, In
av-vtndlng the motion said that the
government had slimed a blow at sti
ver; had closed the mints of India, de
priving sliver of Its last great market
nnd nfterwands had Imposed a duty
upon the (diver Imports of India. The
constant fluctuations of the metal, he
tb-clared. were directly traceable to
tho monetary laws of England
charged elr William Haroourt with
having misjudged the views of France
an l Germany on the question und pre-
di let! that although the opposition
to Hi-metallism was now bitter that
Ky-i.,rn would at no distant date be
vloaorknia because It had upon Its (tide
experience. Justice and oclentlflc truth.
Sir wni t.-n Hare urt eaJd he had
never denied Che existence of uvlm in
coaki'quence of the growing divergence
of (Tie values of gold und silver. When
other countries had desired a manetary
conference, the government had not re-
fuevd to Join. The last conference at
Bru.iels hud shown that a majority
of the European countries d.x-iarcd In
jf a moil ,metallic currency. He
think that Germany had

the cunvncy system of nations.
Win n the conference met, a repre
sentative of the United State* proposed
a E neral resolution th-it In the opinion
of the conference It was destrable that
a method sh-.uld be found which would
In TUN the use of silver. This resolu-
tion was supported by the British dele
gates. It had been nlleged that the
failure of tho conference was due to
a premature dackonrtlnn on the part
of sir Cttarletl Rivers Wilson, a Brit
ish delegate, mgakiit bl-metalllsm This
soatement tires absolutely unfounded.
It war It German delegate who made
the first dot i.tratlon of the kind, say-
11 - that Osrraany -was satisfied with
h r present m notary s st-m, nnd did
not Intend to alter It. ("Hew, Hear!”)
He also said that Germany recognized
the filet that riie continuation of oscll-
latlons of silver value* wera regret
table from an economic point of view,
and It was therefore desirable that
tha question ■*—a ha oonsldered. Th*
representatlrsa of Fnuice and the
other powers were not so din- tly op-
I .s. rl to silver but were itlbher dis
posed to crltlclxs than to co-operate,
SO the Unite i Siai-s deisgaten' fvsoru-
tun bad to bo abandoned. After thl*
Mr. Alfred Rothschild, a British dele
gate, had mad- a practical proposi
ti -i for the enlargement of tile use of
silver, und this was defeated by the
a don of Russia and th* Latin union.
It was necero iry .therefore, tbit as far
as the object* of the United BUtea
were not concerned no blftgne could
be attached to the Srltlah del -mtea
for h negative results reached.
