The “Foroe Bill” Failed in the Senate.
Congressional ■•rot'eetUnars.
Special to the L'au.y Timkk by S. A A. blue )
HOUSE.
In tho House last night, on motion
of Mr. Lawrence, of Ohio, the Senate
amendments to tho bill to pay tho
award of tho Southern Claims Com
mission, were concurred in.
Mr. Garfield, from the Conference
Committee on the Sundry Civil Ap
propriation bill, submitted a report.
Mr. Randall, who had refused to
sign the report, said he lmd not done
so, and it was due to the House, and
perhaps to the country, that he should
glvo his reasons for declining to do so:
First, he considered the bill in
amount ($27,000,000) as utterly un
justifiable, in tho present condition
of tho Treasury and business of the
country. He not only protested
j against the amount, but all through
the bill there were items that, to say
the least, were very objectionable.
There was another reason, the com
mittee had utterly failed to support
the directions of the House in rela
tion to the New Iberia Mining Com
pany. The report was then adopted.
Mr. Parker, of Missouri, submitted
the report of the Committee on Con
ference on the Deficiency Appropria
tion bill, which was adopted, and the
bill passed.
A number of pension and other pri- i
vale bills of a minor nature wore
passed, either under a suspension of
the rules or by unanimous consent.
The Senate bill to establish the
boundary line between Arkansas and
Indian Territory was taken up and
passed.
At 11.40, a. m., Mr. Packer, of Indi
ana, moved to admit ladies upon the
lloor, to which unanimous consent
was given, and tho outer circle was
soon enlivened by the gay colors of
tho ladies.
Mr. Dawes offered a resolution that
a committee of three be appointed to
join a similar committee of the
Senate, and wait upon the President
and inform him if he has no commu
nication to make, the two Houses are
ready to adjourn. Adopted.
The Chair named Messrs. Dawes,
Maynard and Cox as such committee.
The remainder of the time was con
sumed in announcing the enrollment
bills and the presentation of execu
tive documents.
Mr. Dawes, from the committee to
wait on the President, announced
that duty performed, and that the
President replied he had no further
communication to make.
The Speaker then addressed the
House as follows:
Gentlemen -1 close with this hour a
six years’ service as Speaker of the
House of Representatives; u period
surpassed In length by but two of my
predecessors, and equalled by only
two others. The rapid mutations of
personal and political fortune in this
country have limited tho great, ma
jority of those who have occupied
this chair to shorter terms of office.
It would be the gravest insensibility
to the honors and responsibilities of
life not to be deeply touched by so
signal a mark of public esteem as
that which I have thrice received at
the hands of my political associates.
I desire in this last moment to renew
to them, one and all, my thanks and
my gratitude to those from whom I
differ in my party relations. To
the minority of this House I tender
my acknowledgments for tho gener
ous courtesy witii which they have
treated me. By one of those sudden
and decisive changes which distin
guish popular institutions und which
conspicuously mark a free people,
that minority is transformed in the
ensuing Congress to the governing
power of the House, However it
might possibly have been under
other circumstances, that event nec
essarily renders these words my fare
well to tho chair. The Speakership
of the American House of Represen
tatives is a post of honor, of dignity,
of power, of responsibility. Its du
ties are at onco complex and continu
ous. They are both onerous and del
icate. They are performed in the
broad light of day, under the eye of
the whole people, subject at all times
to the, closest observation and always
attended with the sharpest criticism.
I think no other official is held to
such instant and such rigid accounta
bility. Parliamentary rulings in
their very nature are peremptory—
almost absolute in authority and in
stantaneous in effect. They cannot
always be enforced in such a way as
to win applause or secure popularity.
But I am sure that no man, of any
party, who is worthy to fill this chair,
will ever see a dividing line between
duty and policy.
Thanking - you once more, and
thanking you most cordially for the
honorable testimonial you have
placed on record to my credit, I per
form my onlyrromaining duty in de
claring that the Forty-Third Con
gress has reached its constitutional
limit, and that the House of Repre
sentatives stands adjourned without
day.
With his last words the hammer
fell, and Speaker Blaine left the chair
and took a seat at the Clerk’s desk.
Then followed a scene probably
never before witnessed in the hall
of the House of Representa
tives. All over the floor
and in the spaces of the rear of the
seats, which were densely packed, as
well as the galleries, there was the
wildest enthusiasm, with the waving
of handkerchiefs by the ladies, and
COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1875.
the clapping of hands by everybody
—the two sides seeming to vie with
each other us to which should bo the
heartiest in Its applause of Mr.
Blaine. Tho usual hand-shaking
among tho members then commenc
ed, and the time was much longer
than usual, before the members and
others began to rottro from the hall,
and thus ended the second session of
Forty-Third Congress.

ling and Thurman.
Mr. Conkling announced that they ■
had performed that duty, and I hat
tho President had no further business j
for communication.
The hour of noon having arrived, i
the Vice President declared the Sen
ate adjourned without, date.
At a late hour last night Senator
Patterson succeeded in securing an
amendment to the River and Harbor
bill, appropriating $50,000 for the im
provement of the Charleston, 8. (!.,
harbor. When tho bill went to tho
Conference Committee, tho House
side refused to accept the amend
ment, but Senator Patterson was
on hand and had sufficient influence
with the Senate side to hold them to
the amendment, until the House of
fered to compromise by an appropri
ation of $40,000, which was accepted,
and said amendment is contained in
the bill as signed by tho President.
The bill contains tho following addi
tional appropriations for the South;
For the improvement of tho harbor
at Mobile $20,000; harbor at Cedar
Keys, Fla., $15,000; Chattahoochee

Tlic Form Hill Fallctl in the Wenatr.
Washington, March 4,1875. Up to
the final hour of adjournment to-day,
the Republican Senators made no ef
fort to move for third reading of the
Force bill, or to move it as an amend
ment to any other measure, conse
quently it is a dead letter. The Pres
ident was the last to abandon all
hope of its passage. He was at the
Senate Chamber soon after Senate
met yesterday, and sending, for lead
ing Republican Senators, renewed
his appeal for the consideration of
the bill. He admitted that if taken
up the Democratic Senators had it in
their power to defeat it by parlia
mentary manoeuvering, but the dis
cussion of it, he insisted, would have
a moral effect among the Republi
cans, North and South, that would
tend to support the Executive in the
policy which he might be compelled
to pursue towards the South.
