Messrs. Hale and Aldrich.

finally buried in the senate Saturday,
Owing to the hot weather many senators
have left W ashington for the summer,
Senator Washburn realizes he cduld
never get a quorum to vote upon it this
session, so he agreed at Saturday’s ses
sion for it to go over until December,
That practically means its defeat after
the election, as but little interest will be
taken in the measure, and the opposition
will find no difficulty in postponing it
indefinitely.
Monday.—T he attendanse of senators
Monday morning was not indicative of
any great success having attended the
telegraphic summons of the vice presi
dent recalling absentees. Tne vice ores.
ident stated that no less than thirty-one
such telegrams had been tent out, and he
laid before the senate four telegrams re
ceived by nm alleging sickness as the
cause ot absence. These were from
Messrs. Wilson, Ca-ey, Dolph and Paulk
ner. Leaves of absence were granted, be
sides, to Mr. Platt, for the remainder of
the session, and Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana,
for Tuesday. On motion of Mr. Hawley,
the mvitation-of the Grand Army of the
Republic at the encampment in Septem
ber was accepted on the part of the sen
ate, and a committee of five senators pro
Tided for. The house joint resolution,
extending the appropriations included in
the sundry civil bill till Thursday receiv.
ed from the house was laid before the
senate and passed. '
Tuesday.—T he attendance of senators

or during most of last week. The
vice president laid before the senate the
resolution: reported Monday for the ap
pointment* of a- select committee of seven
senators on the employment'oTFinkerton
detectives in labor troubles. A general
discussion ensued. At 2 o’clock the dis
cussion was suspended and Mr. Biitldr

it up at the beginning of the next ses
sion. Mr. Gormah 'asked leave of
.pencp for Mr: Hill for the 'remainder of.
the session, audit was granted. further
Pinkerton resolution was then
discussed and finally adopted without

Wednesday. —There were very few
senators present when Wednesday’s ses

any pressure of business before the body,,
Reave of absence on account of ill health
was granted to Mr.- Kenna. A resoiu

May for the appointment’ Of a joint
committee of the two houses to examine
and report on the commercial and polit¬
ical conditions of Cuba and West India
Islands and their relations to the United
States, was laid before the senate, Its
adoption was opposed by Mr. Sherman as
unwise in every aspect, and as an un¬
friendly act towards the government
of Spain, and he suggested a comparison like
between the proposed inquiry and a
proposition on the part of the British
government to inquire into the condition
of Utah. It went over again without ac¬
tion. i
NOTES.
An extra session of congress is possible
if the filibusters will not let the fair ap¬
propriation go through, and if the fair
people will not let the resolution extend¬
ing the old appropriation from August
4 (as it now stands), to next December
an extra sesson would have to be called
to meet the emergency or a lot of gov¬
ernment machinery would stop. This
situation existed once before and an ex¬
tra session had to settle it.
The pres dent, on Friday, vetoed the
famous McGarrahan claim bill. The veto
message comes in the face of the fact
that the bill passed both houses of con

the South during the past week, The Ohattar
QOoga Tradesman states that its reoorts re¬

points in the Southern States, are to the effect
that much attention is directed to the condi¬

In the northern.portion of the backward cotton area plant¬ the
reports are to the effect that a
ing time, heavy rains which pie voted cultiva¬
tion, and,’in the river valleys the recent exten¬

generally prevailed during the week is doing
