(Special to the Daily Press.)
RICHMOND, Jan. 24.?The House
committee on the Chesapealce and its
Tributaries today decided to makes fa?
vorable report on the bill offered by Mr.
Li 'at i, providing for the creation of a
State ilsheries commission, to whom all
matters relating to the oyster and fish
interests of the State shall be referred.
The commission is to consist of five
members, of whom two are from Tide?
water and the other three from the oth?
er sections of the State. Notwithstand?
ing the favorable report of the com?
mittee, this bill promises to precipitate
an interesting discussion when It comes
upon its passage. The members of the
Legislature, or many of them, are op?
posed to delegating so much authority
as this bill confers upon a cimmls
sion to he named by the governor, a.s
the bill provides.
Am ng the important bills Introduced
':: the House today was one offered by
Mr. .7. VV. Williams, of Giles county.
? ?r. v! ling that treasurers of cities and
ountles >hall be Ineligible for re-elec?
tion until it shall appear that they have
paid ;.;> all arrearages in full. This bill
will meet with determined opposition
from treasurers and their friends, for
the treasurer who ha.-* no 'arrearage is
not only rare, but la the exception rath?
er than the rule.
Mr. N. 5t. Newberne, of Norfolk coun?
ty. Is the author of a bill offered today,
to make the cities of Norfolk, Ports?
mouth and Norfolk county one quaran?
tine district, and to create a quarantine
commission which shall be vested with
full quarantine powers. A lively ilght
1? being made by the physicians of Nor?
folk .and Portsmouth for the post of
quarantine officer.
Among the Senate bills passed by the
House today and which now- go to Gov?
ernor Tyler for hU approval are:

ruary 20. 1SH2, to provide for the settle?
ment of the public debt of Virginia not

In the Senate today the bill
m'aking employers liable for injuri-vs
sustained by employees was reuov'tej
from the House, resol -?r-nrVt and second
time, and Lleu&ehant Governor Echot-s
referred ,ttvr' bill to the committee on

TrjJposed this, and moved that the biil
go to the committee on courts of Jus?
tice, and on a yea and nay vote It was
ordered reiferred to the latter commit?
tee. Senators Wickham, Boykin and
Mason made a fight when the roll call
was made to show that the presiding
officer Wad determined where the bill
should go. The vote showed that the
Senate thought the bill should go to
the committee on roads?19 to 12.
Senator Leteher introduced a resolu?
tion to allow a popular vote to be taken
on the question of imposing a special
tax for the benefit of veteran soldiers
and sailors of the State.
Mr. J. P. CSUdwell introduced a bill
in the House providing for the appoint?
ment of physicians to Jails who thall
receive 75 cents for each patient attend?
ed, and further providing that a fee
of $2Fi shall be paid for analysis of
stomachs or bodies'and tests for poison,
in cases where such crime is suspected
and where the examination or analysis
is ordered by the court. At present
many suspected cases of poisoning go
uninvestigated for lack of provision for
payment of fees for analysis and tests.
Hon. J. N. Stubbs, the member from
Gloucester county, and l'ate grand com?
mander .if the Grand Camp of Confed?
erate Veterans of Virginia, spoke to?
day in advocacy of House bill No. 139,
providing for n geodetic survey of the
natural oyster beds in York River in
the county of King and Queen. The bill
was advocated also by its patron, Mr.
C. C. Bland, and by Mr. Diggs, of King
William, and antagonized by Messrs.
Pilcher, of Faueiuier. and Craig, of
Rockbridge. The bill, whldh elicited a
liv.-ly debate, is one designed to open
to tongers certain leased oysted beds.
Messrs. Withrow, W'atkins Winbourne
and others participated in the debate,
which frequently elegenerated into a
dialogue, in which Mr. Stubbs took a
prominent |>art. None of the leaders
of th.- 'House, nor of the foremost
champions of the oyster.toevk part in the
discussion.
Mr. Diggs offered a resolution design?
ed to meet objections to the original
loll. This was lost by a recorded vote
of 22 to 49. The pending question, the
engrossment of the bill, was ordered.

CIVIL SERVICE COM'MISSION.
Bombshell Sprung by Examiner Bailey
at Ye.-terday's 'Meetings.
(By Telegrapn.i
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.?A 1>om'bsh-1)
was sprung at today's sesston of the
Senate civil service investigating com?
mission, when E. D. Bailey, assistant
chief examiner of the civil service com?
mission and a leading witness, inti?
mated that the commission had .sought
to interfere with his testimony.
"The first thing that revealed the
fact that I might be suspected of know?
ing more about the examinations than I
actually know," Mr. IBaiiey said, "was
wh, n Mr. Proctor called me to his office
Q little after the first testimony I gave.
He said he had no desire to influence
my testimony in any way, but that the
chairman of the committee .had not
.summoned any one friendly to the com?
mission, and asked me to tell him what
I was to ,?ay so he could be prepared
to answer."
The witness insisted that he did not
believe Mr. Proctor intended to intim?
idate him. A little later Mr. Bailey said
he was searching the records for data
as to Albert iBaker, who has figured in
the Investigation, when Chief Examiner
Serven asked him by what authority
h ? was divulging the records of .the
commission, and advised him to ask the
i ommission for a statement. He con?
tinued, however, to make pencil memo
randa. This he had submitted to Mr.
Proctor, w ho had expressed no dissent
but again It Was suggested to him he
bad better obtain the information offi?
cially. Then he submitted it to the In
veatigating committee, Mr. Proctor
meantime saying he made no eugges
tion. Lour Chief Examiner Berven told
hirn he (Serven) bad conferred with the
eommrnission; thai the latter was not
pleased with what 'Mr. Bailey had said,
and that Mr. Serven regarded Mr. Bai?
ley's testimony as a criticism of admin?
istration rather than suggestion of the
law. Mr. Serven had stamped Mr. Bal.
ley's testimony as "fire in the rear,"
and the commission had Instructed
Chief Examiner Serven that Mr. Bailey,
his chief clerk, was not hereafter to
sign any recommendations to the com?
mission as had been his custom. That
had curtailed the witness' duties and
powers.
Mr. Proctor took the staond and made
a lengthy statement. He prefaced it
with a vigorous arraignment of Mr.
Bailey, whom, though conceding his
conscientiousness, he stamped as ut?
terly lacking in administrative capac?
ity, held him responsible for whatever
trouble had existed In the official cor?
respondence <ai*d criticized him for step?
ping out of his bailiwick as a clerk and
assuming to represent the commission.
He characterized iMr. fBailey's views as
valueless, and was continuing on this
line when the committee checked him
to keep his testimony within his proper
bounds.
Mr. Proctor then went on to take up
in detail criticisms of the administra?
tion of the commission, and submitted
statements from heads of divisions to
sustain his position.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.?The House
spent a couple of hours today transact?
ing husiness relating to the District of
Colum'bia and the remainder of the day
on the Indian appropriation biU. Dur?
ing the consideration of the lattvr bill a
lively political debate was precipitated
by an allusion made by Mr. Simpson.
(Populist), of Kansas, relative to an al?
leged interview with the President on
the sulbject of immigration. Mr. Gros
venor took occasion to express the opin?
ion that the President had never used
some of the language imputed to him,
and the debate drifted Into a general
discussion of our industrial conditions
In the course which the strike In New
England, the high prices for wheat in
Kansas and the defaulting Republican
officials In Nebraska, suece-ssive'.y play?
ed their parts. Messrs. Dlngley, Greene,
(PopuMst), of Nebraska; Mercer (Re?
publican), of Kansas participated.
Mr. Boutelle. (Republican), of Maine,
chairman of the committee on naval af?
faire, reported hack the two resolutions
calling on the secretary of the n'avy for
information as to the -urtalbility of sites
for an armor plate factory In the South,
with the recommendation that they He
on the table. The report called atten?
tion to thg fftct that invitations had
been issued for sea'.ed proposals for the
land, 'buildings and machinery for a
government armor plate factory, which
would be openeVl January 29, 189S, and
that the secretary, when these were
opened, would send a special report to
Congress containing all information. In
view of the fact that the secretary was
proceeding to carry cut the law, Mr.
Boubelle said: he thought it unnecessary
to call on the secretary for information
whl-h he would furnish.
The first resolution was laid' upon the
table without division, rout Mr. Under?
wood ODemocrat), ot-'Alabama, insisted
u'pon a division on'his resolution caKing
upon the secretary for the Information
obtained by. the armor plate board as to
the advantages of Southern places as
JoKXiVions for an armor plate plant, but
by a vote of 107 'to 105 the resolution was
tallied.
The House, before ad'journing, com?
pleted seven Ptiges of the Indian appro?

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.?Proposed
annexation of Hawaii was somewhat
extensively reviewed by Sir. Motgan, of
A.a'bama, today, while speaking to a
question of personal x>rivilege. The S n
ator from Alabama had been represent?
ed as saying in executive session sub
stan'tially that ex-Presid:nt Cleveland
was in favor of Hawaiian annexation.
This statement called' out a denial from
Mr. Cleveiand' and in support of his
original statement Mr. Morgan addivss
ed the Senate at great Ifeugth.
Mr. Walt'hall, of'Mississippi, presented
a Joint resolution adopted by the legis
iature elf his state, urging the United
Stutes government to intervene in the
Cuban wer on behalf of the insurgents,
"peacealbly. if it can, forcilbly if it must."
The resolution was r^ad and referred
to the camimdttee on foreign relations.
The Teller resolution was then laid
before the 'Senate and1 in accordance
with notice previously given, Mr. Tur
pie, of Indiana, addressed' the Senate in
support of the resoluti-m. "I shall vote
for the resolution willingly," he began.
"I think its introduction timely and op?
portune especially when we are con?
fronted by a measure which contem?
plates an increase of the public debt by
three hundred or four hundred million
dollars. It is. indeel', proper that we
should repeat the declaration that all
government eibligations are payalble in
coin?not in gold."
"If wie abandon silver," said' he, "and
agree to' pay all of our obligations in
gold we she/u.d simply clinch the ho'.o ?nf
the detbt syndicate upon the country."
Mr. Turpie spoke for an hour and a
half.concluding with the statement that
be and other silver adtvocabcsi weri
willing to rest 'their case with the peo?
ple.
Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, under a
questie,n of personal privilege, rose at
the conclusion oe' Mr. Turpie's ad i'ress
to make a statement.
Mr. 'Morgan referred to a despatch
from Princeton, N. J.. published yester?
day quoting ex-tPresiden't Clev ianel a."
denying a statement said to have 'been
made by Mr. Morgan in an executive
session of th- Senate to the effect that
Mr. Cleveland was once in favor of thu
annexation of Hawaii. Mr. Morgan
said that, he could not d'iseuss his cm
'statemealts made in executive session.
"i.N'o srta terra, nt for publication was
made by me," saiu' Mr. Morgan, "hence
Mr.Cleveland, in accepting such a state?
ment without first ascertaining .rotn me
what the facts were, shows his willing?
ness; to accept exparte statements in
Hawaiian mutters."
Mr. iMorgon su'id that it was weil
kn.i'wn to some of Mr. Cleveland's
friends during his fkst administration
that he 'u.is in favor oi? ten only thv
annexation of Hawaii, tiut also of Oulba.
'Ucannot," declared Mr. Morgan,
"accept Mr. Clevyiand's statement that
he was always opposed to Hawaiian an?
nexation, d can name at k?st onc con?
fidential friend' ejf (Mr. Cleveland who
will support me in the bel.e; that that
statement is not true."
At great length LMr. Morgan read the
correspondence between Minister Wil?
lis and1 the Hawaiian government and
with ex-Queen Laluokalani.
M>r. Morgan, then said that Mr. Cleve?
land, after the correspondence had been
sulbmitted 'to him, seeing that he had
a mein (Mr. Doie) to deal with who was
incapable of dishonesty or intrigue, re?
tired' from the tield and shouldered the
whole Hawaiian matter upon Congress.
The Senator declared his belli* that Mr.
Cleveiand in endeavoring to reiivs'tute
Liiluokalani upon the Hawaiian -t'hrone
had in view, iike Secretary of State
Marcy once had, the annexation of the
islands to the United States and the
pensioning of the Queen.
Mr. Morgan said that he had no de?
sire to argue the mutter, feeWng weU
assured that the correspondence he had
re-ad not only established the fact that
Mr. CleW'.ar.d -was covertly considering
the question of annexation, but that his
tiction in regard to Hawaii was a last?
ing disgrace upon this country. Mr.
Morgan retaineii his belief that Mr.
Cleveland1 was in favor e>f annexation,
but that tMr. Dole's hone.sty foioed the
President to a'bandon bis policy of over?
throwing the provisional Hawaiian gov?
ernment.
"The correspondence I have read," de?
clared Mr. .Morgan, "lays the founda?
tion for the broad predicate 'that Mr.
Cleveiand was capable of declaring one
pdiicy and in'tendiing to carry into ef?
fect another."
The pension appropriation bill was
then called up and debated' for three
hours. At r.-.?O P. M. the Senate ad?
journed, leaving the measures uncom?
pleted.
