Mr.Payne, in presenting petitions in favor of the resolutions offered by Mr. Carlisle early in the session as to trade relations with Cuuada, expressed the opinion that the resolutions should have beer, referred to the committee on foreign relations rather than to the select com mittee on trade relations with Canada. , chairman of the latter committee explained that the delay in acting ut*>n the resolution had been due to the absence (through illness) of Messrs. Butler and Voor heesand to the engagements of Messrs. Allison ana Hale in the committee on appropriations. He promised that there would soon be a meet ing of the select committee, although it was not very likely, he said, that action would be taken by the Senate on a matter of such very grave im portance at this short session. He had been informed that it would be debated very vx tensively when it came up in the Senate. The committee would therefore get the matter ripe for action by the Senate as soon as it could. Mr. Carlisle thought it probablv true that it would be impossible to dispose of such a sub ject at the present Congress. But he would be very much gratified land so would a great many of the people of the United States' to have a report mads, one wav or the other.

The bill for the adjudication of claims aris ing from Indian depredations having been taken up as the "unfinished business." Mr. Gray appealed to the Senate for an evening ses sion for a consideration of the bill to transfer the revenue marine from the Treasury Derart- J ment to the Navy Department. He s:,oke of the bill as one of great public concern and asked unanimous consent to have it taken up and considered in the evening session. Mr. l'addock suggested that the request be made at a later hour of the dav. He hoped that it would not be insisted on now. Mr. Chandler?Why not? Mr. Edmunds?I object to it. I'^dock?I object because we cannot tell how long it will take to conclude the con sideration of the pending bill. nfotft 'Am1 ?ust,^at. what*ver time, dav or night, the Senate will give to legislative busi ness will be ^iveu to the IndUn depredation claims bill unt.l it is disposed of. Mr. Edmunds?It is known on both sides of the chamber that an order of business has been agreed upon by gentlemen on this side and it w my duty as representing them in taking care of the order of business to insist that the order shall go on. I therefore am obliged to object to the request of the Senator from Delaware whatever my opinion may be as to the merits of his particular bill. Mr. Gray?I have not desired to interfere with the order of business, but it is quite aPI>a rent that within the eleven or twelve days that are left of the session the seven or eight dis tort subjects in the order of business cannot be completed. I have endeavored to make mv suKge.Uonin such shape as not to interfere with the order of business by asking the Sen ate to consent to an evening session for this special purpose, and therefore (as unani mous consent has been refused) I move that the Senate today take a recess from 6 to 8, and HL 2," .t^.r:,n aK 8eM'on th? revenue marine transfer bill be taken np for consideration. The Presiding Officer (Mr. Ingalls)?The Senate has already adopted an order for ? daily recess from 6 until 8. more on tbe conven lM J* ?exxa** revenue marine transfer bill be taken up for consideration. The presiding officer ruled that the motion could only be entertained by unanimous con sent. _*r: Chandler appealed to Mr. Edmunds to withdraw his objection. The Senate, he said was not able last evening to get a quorum to consider the Indian depredations bill but it might be that a ouorutn would attend this even ing to consider the revenue marine bill. At all events it would do no harm to the effort. The appeal was not successful, and the con sideration of the Indian depredation bill wma proceeded with. MB. INGALLS BEBXOXS THE CIA IB. Mr. Ingalls. who was occupying the Vice President's chair as presiding officer pro tem. made a personal statement. He said: Four years ago, on the 25th of the present month.

Nswlsnd* Before the " ? 11 Committee Today. There was a very noticeable lack of interest today in the proceedings of the Mouse coinage committee now that it ha* been decided to close the hearings on the stive;- question to morrow and only three member* of the com mittee were present. Representative Walker (Mass.) continued hi* examination of Mr. Newhind*, the inquiry being chiefly on cor relative suljects rather than the direct issue involved in the silver question. OOLD ASD SILVER ARE BUT DROaa. In response to one question Mr. Newlands said that, in hi* opinion, both gold and silver, apart from their money use, which l-il been given them by law. custom and tradition were intrinsically the most worthless metal* in the world. That was. be added, perhaps an ex travagant statement. Deprive gold and ailver or their money quality and thev would be worth very little a* compared with iron, copper lead and other uteful metal*. ' PAX1C8 AND THEIR CAtTKBS. The recent panic having been alluded to bv Mr. Newlands Mr. Walker wanted to know if were there anything in this world with which man had to do which wa* not subject occasionally to disturbance. Mr. Kewland* replv was that he .I,'?v' no,w ^ *ny financial ayatcm which could be made perfect and would entirelv avert panics, but their liability to occur could be be lessened, and he thought one great cause of panics was a small volume of money. THE TALE ABOUT POOLE. Mr.Walker *aid that a* it had been charged that there were gold pools and gold bugs, who were seeking to influence legislation, he would aak if Gen. Warner was paid for his servi-os by the silver organization. The witness replied that Gen Warner wa* not paid for bis services. *nd that his interest in the silver question was en tirely impersonal, but he should decline to an ?7e? ooet.tions relating to the organization He hi'.dgivan his testimony in this matter befor* the silver pool iueestigating committee. Mr. Newlands said that he did not indulge in any of this idle talk about pools and moner or ganization and corrupt influence* on either aide He did not believe either side wa* doing mure than attempting, by discussion and agitation, to influence public sentiment. Tba teim ?ol<i bug wa* used, he thought, jnat aa the Wrm ?liver (peculator wa* u*ed on the other si da. ntDiA aa a "bike bole" for iilver. J. 8. Moore, the "Paraee merchant." ? ??!? a statement to the effect that it wa* not the de monetization of diver by the United State* which cauaed the decline in valu* of ailver but a smaller demand for silver in India and a larger aupply of *ilver, due to importation* and an improvement in transportation amont tn? ^dia prorinces. India wa* called a ank hole for nlver because, although great amounts of stiver were aent there, none ever came back. Mr. Bartine closely queationed Mr. Moon With reference to his statements of Indian s.TJr'crHK correct, nevertheless. CAPITOL TOPICS. umm for >? ????
