General Swaim had made every effort to set
tle the differences between Itatcman and

payment and was informed that it -was not
good. Suit was then brought against Bale
man & Co. Tho examination of this witness

Forty-Eighth ConRross.
SENATE.
Washington, D. C, December 10. Mr.
Ingalls presided over the senate to-day. Tho
bill making temporary provision for tho na
val service, was reported by Hill; of the
naval committee, lie gavo "notice that he
would endeavor to call it up to-morrow.
Lapham presented a remonmnco against
a ratification of the Nicarauguan treaty.
Sherman raised a point Unit tho "treaty
was executive huaiiitos and had not been or
dered published. The remonstrance should
therefore be presented in executive session.
Lapham thereupon withdrew it.
Cockrell from the committee on military
affairs reported adversely on tho petition of
members of tho George Strong post G. A.
It., of Fairfield, Iowa. The petition asked
that the surplus in the treasury be used to
make up to soldiers and sailors of the late
war the amount lost to them by reason of
depreciation of money in which" they were
paid from 18C2 to I860, which los amounted
to nearly one-half their monthly pay. The
petition adds: "The United States govern
ment is in honor bound to grant this prav
er." A resolution was agreed to calling on tho
secretary of state to communicate to the
senate all accessible information regarding
the extent and character of foreign trade
with Mexico, the Central and South Ameri
can states, Cuba, Porto Rico and San Do
mingo to include, if possible, in such
statement the value and character of manu
factured and other articles comprising im
ports and exports.
I 111; MIIUIUSIIUU UIOWICSS, nullify II1U IVilHUUl
bill, was temporarily laid aside, o permit
Mr. Beck to continue hi.- remarks of j ester
day on the silver question. He repeated
silver had never had fair treatment from any
of our aduiini-tration? nor anv member of
it. When we is3iio our bonds he said they
were payable in coin of standard value
United States gold and silver coin, and
the senator from Ohio, (Sherman), when
secretary of the treasury, was required by
law to devote coin received from customs
to the payment of interest on the public
debt. AVh'en the law requires tho secaetary
to pay out something it was not for him to
say that tho customers wanted something
else. Tho officers of the United States were
seeking to strike down silver whilo wo were
producing forty per cent of the world s sup
ply in that metal. Mr. Beck wanted some
administration that would say to tho silver
countries that we would stand by them. We
could wait sixty days, thank God, until the
enemies of the silver bill disappeared from
the other end of the capitol before letting
the world know that wo proposed in good
faith to maintain tho currency of our coun
try and pay our bonds according to our ob
ligations. Mr. Beck characterized ns simnlv
imprudent the statement of tho comptroller
of tho currency that the silver coinage law
was unworthy this great nation. No officer
of the government riad a right to mako such
a statement to tho legislature of tho nation.
Mr. Sherman denied that any officer of
the United States had ever made any at
tempt to strike down silver or to discrimi
nate against it. From 1802, when the law
referred to was passed there was no sil
ver dollars in circulation that could be im
plied to the payment of customs dues, con- i
seouentlv no discrimination had been made I
...-..:-. ."I.- -.... it.. . r : i.... I
nutusb .111; suiium. ixu sjrunu ui cum uub
there had been in existence no coin except
cold and that was received and paid out.
There was no law to reduiro discrimination
against gold or compel the payment of silver
and the Cnited Siates government had paid
to its creditors the kind of monov the pre
ferred, not as matter of right on the part of
the creditor, but as a matter of convenience
and according to the custom of Links and
monied institutions generally. Mr. Sherman
defended the comptroller of the currency
who, nc snio, nuu cxpressea nu views like n
man. Much demasroiruUm had been
thrown Rround the silver question but the
real question was whether the L'nited States
could arrest the march of time and turn the
dial backward in an attempt to make gold j
and silver of equal value. It could not be
done. The question fur the United States '
to consider was whether we should go on
piling up thee silver dollars in our treasury
as idle money, or suspend it for a time, i
while considering, in connection with other j
nations, a mutual relationship of gold and J
gold and silver. Within a few months he I
would admit a new administration would
come into power and ho commented this
question- If newspajwr acconnts were true ;

Mr. Cullom called up the inter-stato com

The houso was called to order by Mr.

Tne bill was passed amending section 3940
revised statutes, relating to forwarding mail
matter. It authorizes postmasters to for
ward mail matter of the second, third and
fourth class on which postage has once
been paid in full; this rate is now in force as
regards mail matter of the first class.
A resolution was passed providing for a
holiday recess from tho I'Oth of December
until the oth of January, and the hotiso then
resumed consideration ot tho intcr-statc
commerce bill.
Mr. Clardy favored the strictest inhibition
of tho pooling system, but characterized the
proposition as unjust to prohibit railroads
Irotn charging more for shorter than longer
distance, lio did not endorse the orna
mental portion of the committee bill tho
provision fdr the appointment of a com
mission. A vote was then taken on the
substitute for the Reagan bill, for the first
seven sections of tho committee bill contain
ing remedial provision, and it was agreed to.
Yeas, 143; nays, 97. The remaining sec
tions of the committee bill for the appoint
ment of a commission were struck out 118
to 00. The bill known as Reagan's substi
tute was then read by sections under the
five-minute rule.
Mr. O'Neill of Pennsylvania, offered an
amendment oxtending tho provisions of the
bill to tho water way of tho country; amend
ment rejected 9 to 159.
Mr. Hopkins offered an amendment ex
tending the provisions of the bill to persons
or companies engaged in the transportation
of property bv pipe lino or lines. Acreed
to.
Mr. O'Hara offered an amendment pro-
viuing any person nayiug purcuuseu a uckci
to be conveyed from one state to another or
paid the required fare, shall receive the same
treatment and afforded equal facilities and
accommodations as furnished another per
son holding a ticket of the same class with
out discrimination. Mr. O'Hara held that all
citizens of the U. S. were entitled to equal
protection. This was not a question of caste
or color, it was a question dealing fairly with
all persons.
MrvReagan did not doubt the power of
congress in the premises, but the question of
transportation of persons had not been con
sidered in tho committee and ho thought it
too important i matter to be legislated up
on without examination. The amendment
was adopted. Yeas, 135 ; nays, 91.
'1 he announcement 01 mo result was re
ceived with applause on tho Republican
side.
Mr. Blount moved the consideration of
tho amendment, this having been made was

World's Fair.
New Ohixans, Dec. 10. To-day the in
auguration ceremonies at the World's expo
sition opened bright and cheerful and thous
ands of peoplo made preparation early this
morning to witness the long expected evont.
Every public and private building along the
principal street was decorated with more or
les elaborateness.
Along tho street car routes visitors from
northern climates were astonished to find
hundreds of orange trees bending beneath
their rije fruit and to see the bloom of roses
and rich verdure of kitchen and flower gar
den. Many steamers bore to tho exposition
grounds full compliments of passengers.
Along the banks of the father of waters'
the exposition ground displayed to the bc3t
advantage the ships of many nations.
At 11 o'clock Gov. McEnery, of Louii
anna, Major-general Glynn, commander of
the state militia, the member of their staff
in uniform, members of the state legisla
ture, foreign consuls, and several invited
congressmen assembled at the St. Charles
hotel for the purpose of proceeding to
the exposition grounds.
A procession was formed consisting of a
battalion of the Washington artillery under
Col. Richardson, the Centennial Guard", a
fine body of men, and in the garb of a cen
tury ago, all of the full stature of sir feet,
headed by Captain Brown, the Crescent

of Brooklyn. ex-Governors Marton and
Vorhees of Louisiana, and others in car
riage, and a long column on foot in regular
order of procession, nnd headed by the
celebrated Mexican band. The cortege
moved through the crowded streets toward
the river. At the head of Canal street the
procession, in which were the official mem

musicians, ranging from, almost colorlcM

while their ur.ique but attractive musical
performance called out repeated applau.

then gave their Grand Exposition Marcli.
Director General Burke, when the .'applause
which greeted him and the repeated cheers
of the people had subsided, said: "Mr.
President, standing as I do under the flags af
all nations, looking into the faces of people
from every clime, surrounded by the evi
dences of industry gathered from every
quarter ct the eartn, witnm sight ot mat
magnificent gathering of resources of
my own country, with the duty devolved
upon me oi surrenuennz into the bands oi
the management an account of the steward
ship of those in whom the trust has been
reposed of preparing for this great nation
al and international festival. I have no
words of apology or regrets to express. I
have only the profound gratification, the
profound satisfaction, that all countries of
the world, those representing tho industries
of the world and those representing the gov
ernment oCmy own country and the states
and territories of the union have all united
with each other in contributing to the success
of the festival, and have worked for tho
cause with such a degre3 of unanimity, with
such spontanietv as was never before seen
in any great undertakings, whether in war
or in peace. There have been generally
many difficulties and heart burning, but I
must t that in this sreat work, from every
part of the world and from every part of
this conntry we have had only kindness, syra
pathy and Ood wilL If all who were
invited are not here to-day it is not the fault
of the management, whose doors have been
ooen for thirtv davs nast. I will savin
behalf of tho thousands of exhibitors who
are not yet in position, that the delay is duo
to causes beyond their control, but 1 say to
tho public, who are entitled to this explana
tion, that there is not to-day in all the build
ings under our control, one hundred feet of
space unallotcd orunappropriated, which will
net be occupied in the next ten or fifteen
days. 2sbw, Mr. President, we have dis
charged our trust, and I, in tho name of our
workers and my associate?, tender and place
in your hands "the buildings and grounds
which have been prepared for this cxposi
position. Loud and long continued ap-
plause.l
Attcr tho Jtexican hand had rendered some
selections, concluding with their national air,
the audience stauding in tho meantime,
President Richardson, of the Exposition as
sociation, was introduced, and gavo an in
teresting account of tho inception and or
ganization of tho exposition.
Col. Gus. A. Beaux then read President
Arthur's address which had just been re
ceived by telegraph. When he concluded
tho sentence declaring the World's Exposi
tion now open, tho president closed the
electric circuit and the machinery was put
in motion, at the samo moment a" largo por
trait of the president waj placed in position
in the centre of the platform and was greeted
with great applause. Mayor Guillatto then
delivered a brief address of wel
come in behalf ot tho city and
Governor McEnery then delivered an ad
dress in which he reviewed thn history of
tho organization of the exposition and set
forth tho great advantage that would accrue
to the state and to the people of the whole
country irom tins grand enterprise.
After this speech a poem in honor of the
exposition bv Mrs. Towscnd was read bv
Page M. Baker.
Almost every country in Europo and on
this continent was represented on the plat
form. Among others on the platform were
tho officers ot thu French war vessel Bovet
to, Post General Hatton, General Eaton,
commander of education ; Chief Ju.tice
.Manning. Louisiana, and several assistant
justices and judges senators and representa
tives nnd city officials.
To-night tho city is brilliantly illumin
ated. Tho most nolablo un. tho Tmies
Democrat, which has created a triumphal
arch over the street, and the Picayune,
which has superb multi colored row's of
lights and lanterns covering the entire
front. The sky is brilliant with fireworks
and the air resounds with the explosions of
gun powder. Tho general impression is
general impression is that the day has been
a complete success and a credit to the
management. Possibly 2o,000 persons
found their way to the exposition grounds.
The only ciuso of regret Is the delay by
which some of the exhibitors prevented
the first day from presenting their display.
complete arrays 01 exhibits were presented
by the states of Oregon, California and Ne
braska, and the territory of Dakota. The
exhibit of Nebraska attracted universal at
tention, being magnificent.
Some western railroads make fine displays
and scores of manufacturers from the ca'teni
and middle states have given proof of their
ingenuity and their interest in tho success of
the exposition by sending largo supplies
from their factories and workshops. Tho
south shows up with wonderful complctcne's
in her agricultural and manulacturing re
sources and is evidently taking tho greatest
pride in the success of the exposition. It
seems probable that inside of a fortnight tho
scope of exhibits will bo greatly enlarged
and even the present mammoth buildings
can hardly accommodate all the displays.
To-day brought in thousands of sight seers,
and also numerous car loads of goods from
near ind distant state. Report received by
the management indicate that steady streams
of visitors nnd new hrtieles for the exposi
tion may be expected from day to day.
Bad Barker.
Wamiington, V. C, December 10 A
number of witnese were examined to-day
by the sub-comniittee investigating the al
leged irregularities in the first comptroller's
office, relative; to the reputation of J. J.
Barker for truth and veracity. E. W. Ayers,
correspondent of the Kansas City Time,
said Burker's reputation was bad, and he
would not believe him under oath. He
said bo volunteered testimony ngainst Sen
ator Ingalls in tho investigation of that
gentleman's election to the senate several
years ago which proved a lie from begin
ning to end. Avers continued; "A great
many come here and want to know where
that liar, Itarker, is. The papers hr ve d- j
nounccu him as the
liar of the age."

"What do you think of me, Mr. Aycri?"
asked Barker.
"1 think you are the grandest liar of the
age."'
Ex-Governor Crawford of Kansas, said
that for ten year pat he had not spoken to
the gentleman. In Mtithwest Kana, rcla- ;

favorable terms he considered hi reputation
for truth, veracity, honesty and integrity to
be bad andhe would not believe him under

"I -aid in that letter thatvou were a good

The Libel Suit Dismissed.
lNDUNAroLU, IncL, Dec. Id. James G.
Blaine this morning dismissed the libel suit
against the Sentinel in the United States
court. The principal ground was that he
could not get justice in Indiana. The case
was set for trial on the 23d inst-
J
j
The following is Mr. Blaine's letter to his
' attorneys instructing them to ditroiw the
case:
WxsirrxGTON, D. C, Dec. 10.
Messrs. Harrison, Miller Elba, counsellors at
law.
Gents: When I requested you, in Au
gust last to bring suit against tho publishers
ui ieu xxiuiaiiamiiLs ccuunei lor xioei, x aia
so in the belief that the wrong done me br
that paper being entirely of a personal and
Democratic character, could be fairly tried
without undue influence from "political con
siderations. I confess I was profoundly i
amazed to find the matter at once taken up
and the libel reproduced. That I can
expect any otbor result than that which in
formally attends a political libel suit grow
ing out "of an exciting campaign in this coun
try, if I wore unfair enough to desire a
jury composed of my own partisans, I could
not'havo iL A nronerlv constituted iurv
in Indiana would he composed of members
of both political parties in about equal pro
portions. When I visited Indiana in Octo
ber, I was repeatedly advised that six Dem
ocrats could not be "found in tho state that,
in a political suit, would give a verdict
against their leading party organ. This did
not necessarilv convey an imputation upon
them personally with all possible exaggera
tion in every Democratic paper
in Indiana, except" from thtee members of
the Democratic partr of that state I never
heard a word of dissent or disapproval j
spoken. V hue the great mass or tho JJem
ocratic speakers repeated the libel from
every stump in Indiana with vituperative
rancor, with gibe and ribald jest. It was
thus made, so far as any matter of the kind
can be made, an issuo in an exciting politi
cal campaign, and tho Democrats in the
state were thoroughly poisoned in their
minds in regard to tho question to be de
cided at law. Under such conditions it is
simply impossible that I can have personal
integrity as a citizen, but simply
that blending of party prejudice
uculd utterly prevent an impartial
consideration of the evidence submitted. I
am perfectly able to fight the Sentinel news
paper in ah Indiana court, but I would
stand no chaneo whatever against the con
solidated venom of ttw Democratic party of
the state. With the. surroundings and
with this prospect it is. idle for mo to go
through tho trouble and annoyance of a trial.
The questions propounded by the bill of dis
covery have already been substantially and
fully answered by me, and I am willing to
Ie.-ivo my WTitteh statement and answers
under oath to the judgment of the public
I do not choose to have the cao indirectly
concluded, by a technicality or suffered to
die in silence. I mean to mako this frank
nnd open statement of the reason which in
duced me to believe that tho prosecution of
the case would bo utterly fruitless
Very Respectfully,
