the appropriation committee to inaert a
clause in the sundry civil appropriation

from the jurisdiction of the war depart

position wae made by Broderiek, B>pub
licau, of Kaneu<, who sEirertod that the
question had been before tho military
committee and contended that the house
had already entered a report on the pro
posed change, for whiih ho saw no
reason. The plan was expired by
Curtis, Republican, of New York, who
contended that soldiers sent to prison
for minor olfonßee woro ■.Objected to evil
associations. The resolution alter some
debato was adopted, IPG to 1115.

proposes a section to enable tho eocro
tury of the treasury to fund treasury

for treasury nu'.eo.
SIBLKY lOOnS THIS TKEiiIDENT.
Members flocked around Sibley, Diimo
crat uf Penu'dyivunia, when ho began a
characteristic addross against the bill.
He waa applauded when he Raid: "II
ever rebuke wus needed to one who haa
attempted to trample down the pre
rogatives cf a people it is needed for
him who haa at'empted to usurp this
entire government himself. The time
has come when there ohonld be some
thins mire than brains, belly nnd bra I
to this government." Ho referred tv
George tho 111. ami'said it bad bo n
given out that anyone whovoto l again- 1
the bill would incur the diapleasur.i ol
the kings. Four days after the repeal > f
tbe Sherman act, members had told Ir'm
they had been promised revenue colic.t
orships if they would vote for the repeal,
"The gentleman makes a very broad
assertion," eaid Coombs, Democrat i f
New York, ond he aaked Sibloy to men
tion names.
"I went three days ago to a mcmbor
and asked him to allow me the privi'ega
of calling him up here," replied Sibley,
"tie eaid : "Mr. Sibley, you will place
no in a bad uosition with my constitu
ents. But," continued Siblay,
"within 10 feat of ma sits n man who
heard liim make the statement that be
had been offered fedora! offices for hie
vote."
"But do you consider it fair," asked
Coombs, with a porceptible tremor iv
hie voicb, "to make so gravo a charge
against tiie udm'uistratiou and not give
names and piacea iv order to permit of v
defense ?"
"Already padlocks have been on mv
lips too long and I intend to throw them
off," rein nod Sibley.
"VVhtn were padlocks put on
your lioe?" interjected Outhwr-.ite,
Democrat of Ohio. There wan itreal
confusion and excitement following the
queßtion.
"I have not thrown them off boforo,"
continued Sibley, "hacaueo I hoped to
see tbe administration redeem its prom
ice, und 1 did uot wish to utter a rebuiie
when there waß hope of houci:« perform
ance."
Outhwaite had pushed forward, and
again uttered the question: "Who put
padlocks on your lips 1"
Sibloy hesituted a moment, and with
increased earnestness eaid : "Lot me tell
you, gentlemen, I am not talking tod,ay
with men who believe iv going to hell iv
a handcart instead of to heaven sup
ported by truth. Let me tell you aUo
that I am uot addressing men who be
lieve more in a bobtail flush than a con
trite heart." Shouts of applause aud
laughter greetod this statement. Sibley
then proceeded to relate tho •Xpetienos
Of Dionysius, when lie was again inter
rupted by Outhwaite, who asked- "Was
it Dionyjius who put padlocks on your
lips?"
Sibley made no reply, and proceeded
to addresß himself to tho details of the
pending bill.
NEARLY A. PANIC.
Mr. Sibley was frequently interrupted
by questions, and when he demurred
from answering because he hud not been
given notice, and sail that Lis time
would uot be extended, although "uot ■
man spoke in favor of the gold trust of
the world who was not giver, unlimited
time," Mr. Pence, Populist of Colorado,
asked that he be permitted to duiah, but
Mr. Outhwaite objected.
"We saw your distinguished executive
after the election of 1892," Mr. Sibley
continued, "hie himself away lor recrea
tion. Where on earth did he go? To
the classic shores of 'Hog Island,' The
Bible says that when they are ret at
liberty each man will go to l is own
place. Where did he go? To Buzzards
bay. And ever since the old ship of
state has been bumping her nose into
Hog island ai.d foundering iv the water
of buzzards hay witu prosperity hut a
cable length aWay.
"There was a panic being precinitated
by the vultures of tho banks," Mr.
Sibloy shouted, "beside which the last
panic waa a gentle zaphyr to a shrieking
cyclone." He had figures which he lud
prepared last June and which, at tne
solicitation of friends', he had refrained
from using, allowing that banks aud
trusts could uot pay 89 cents on tl.e
dollar. The administration haa bo car
ried out the declaration that the purity
of all kinds of money would bo main
tained, that all other kinds bat gold had
tniorns mere promissory notes lor pay
ment of tho gold.
Spooking ot bis Democratic principles,
Mr. Sibley said ihut if he got into
what he supposed was a mahogany
wagon and found it wan veneered bass
wood being driven over a rocky road by
an inexperience 1 driver, he would jumu
cue and would not earn macfa where lie
landed. He drew a picturesque sketch
of Democrats sitting aroui d oanquet
hulls tonight worshiping nt the sbrine
of Andiew Jackson aud talking theories
|v different from his as tho tbroae of
hades from tho fruit of tho tree of life.
And if Andrew Jackson'! spirit were to
appear it would, he concluded, kick
over tho table and bahish those upjstlea
in disgntt.
Cnx, Democrat of Tenr.orsee, followed
with a careful argument in uupport of
the bill. Stone, li-ipublicsn of Penn
sylvania, did not.tt.ink the pending bill
would reliovo the treasury situation*'
nor did he. in fact, bilievs the retire
ment ol nil green backs aad treasury
notes would chock tho demand.

Mr. Johnson, Democrat of Ohio, fol
lowed with a can-th: epeoch in opposi
lon to tho raeamire. ixa eaid ha thought
be owed an apology to tbs public for
r-penking against a hill which wr.;; ao

bill was de-jignsd to take the govern*
men! out ot the banking business, and
inserted no bill could be devised for
sound currency issues which would not
plnca them uudor the government
sunervi'ion and, in effect, malts them
altefnativ/al* redeemable by the ncvirn
ment. It was the office oi the
government to f'rrnish money.
This bill proposed to confer on
bunko w.ihout limit n r ght that
could only be oonferred on a mooOpol y.
It uave them a monopoly or it waa a
failure. He attempted to demonstrate
that the bill would confer the name

This was true Laccueo the greenbacks

a scheme by which adiuhonost man, en

"Could not tho Canadian hanks psr

Springer, returning to tho n°eault.

WasihnutuN, J»u. B.—Further debate
on Lodge'e resolution asking (or inform*
ation why the American ships wore
withdrawn from Hawaiian waters took
place in the senate today. I'almer,
Democrat ol Illinois, delivered a speech
againßt the resolution, regarding it as an
invasion by the senate of the powers of
the president. He defended the acts of
the present administration in Hawaiian
affairs. Gray, Damocrat of Delaware,
ulao opposed its adoption,
Brice, Democrat of Ohio, presented
the conference report on the military
acadeiuy appropriation bill, and it was
agreed to.
Tuo Lodge resolution calling for in
formation why United States ships of
war had been withdrawn from Hawaiian
waters was then considered, and Palm
er, Democrat, of Illinois, addressed the
oanaee. Whence did the senate, he
asked l derive tbe right to call on the
president for hia reasons for executive
acta? No audi power existed, and wue
it uot impertinent for the senato to
mako Ihe demand He maintained
that it was absurd to say that the senate
may demand the reasons of the presi
dent wittiont at the same time. having
the right in Borne way or another to com
pel an uiißwer. Palmer reforrod to the
species of anglophobia wnioh perme
ated the discussion of co many public
qi'eitiona.and ea d that it wae aaoiiee of
aoootme Bhame and humiliation to hud
that the American senate would discuss
no question without bringing in it the
dangers with which we ere constantly
menaced by the overwhelming power
of Groat Britain. He devoted soino
time to a discussion of the exciting con
dition in the Hawaiian islands, and the
cvmtß which led r.p to nnd followed tho
ostahli ill meat of the provisional govern
mailt. He tlso paid tribute to the work
of Commissioner Blount, who bad been
sent to the islands to inquire into the
fact* regarding the events there.
Palmar argued that the president had
at present a moßt vigorous policy df
uon-iilerferonca in the atfaira oi the
inbinds. This policy, eaid he, is right.
Ha should depiore any responsible
connection on tho part of tho United
States with the government ol the
Islands,
Mr. Gray argued ngainet the adoption
ol the resolution. Thin inquiry asked
tho president for reasons to give the
motive thut actuated hiai in performing
a strictly esecutive duty. •
Mr. Aldrich, Republican, of Rhode
Island, referred to his remarks made
some days ago respecting the visit to
the city of the Royaliet commission
Irom tiie Hawaiian islands, and eaid ha
had yesterday received couiirmation of
the coincidence of datee in this matter
from unexpected quarters. Ho there
into sent 10 tho cork's desk aud asked
that the president's statement on the
matter published should be read. The
cierk had finished only a portion of it
when the hour of 2 o'clock arrived and
the resolution again took its place on
tha calendar.
Tne regular order waa then laid aside
and the senate listened to euloaiea on
the lifo of the late Senator Colquitt.
Remarks ware made by Senators Haw

FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.
Veal or Mlstonrt Dnplor.i. non-Aotlon In

Washington, Jau. B.—Senator Vest ia
not optimistic as to tho chances of
financial legislation by this congress.
The senator was on hia way to the
meeting of the finance committee, today,
when oakod about the Btory published
in some ol the morning papers that a
compromise had been agreed upon in
the eunato.
"It is all rot," lie said. "I suppose
yon mean the stuff about a financial
measure to be offered in the senate by
cert..in DemootatiO senators. There is
nothing in it. Furthermore in my
opinion, there is no possibility of pass
ing any financial bill in ihe senate. We
have no rules and five senators can pre
vent action on auy bill during this ses
sion. The only hope for prompt and
efficient action was In the Democratic
party, and we failed at the outset of the
the Beasiou. Instead of ohanging the
senate rules bo as to provide for stop
ping debate and then resolutely takinir
up the financial question and the tariff
bills from the house, the Democratic
caucus from the senate deliberately re
fused to do anything of the kind.
"As matters now are In the aenate,
nothing will be done except by unani
mous consent. If the ayes aud nays
could be called on taking off the differ
ential duties of one-tenth and one
eighth on cuzar, the majority would be
for the removal.
TRAVELING MEN WIN.

Washington, Jan. B.—Tho aenate com
mittee of interstate commerce today

amending the interstate commerce act
eous to permit the issuance of joint in

special privileges as to the amount of
free baggago that may be carried on
mileage tickets of 1000 miles or more.
This la a bill in which the commercial
travelers are especially interested, and
lor which they h ,v» worked hard. It
has pasaed the house.
THE BANKRUPTCY BILL.
Hi-nator George JJUeappolnUtl at Delay
In the Sf-imte.
Washington, Jan. B.—There is goinc
to be soina impatience in the aenate an
the part of tho champione of other bills
over the prolonged debate on tho Nica
raguan canal bill. The advocatea of the
bankruptcy bill are growing eapeoially
aolicitous.
It ia rumored today that Senator
George, who has the bankruptcy bill iv
hie keeping, would soon attempt to have
it taken up, even if in doing eu he would
bave to at>k that the Nicaraguau bill be
unplaced.
Mi. George urouounoed this r jor ai
without foundation,, hut admitted that
he hud been disappointed that the de
bate on tlis canal bill had continued for
such a length of time. Ha said it. had
been nuderstood when the order of con
sideration of t tie measure was agreed on
that the debate on the canal bill would
not continue to exceed cix .-.ay.
Senator Morgan said at the close of
<theoes«ion thai-tie did not think there
would be a areit many moro "poeches
on the canal bill, and he believed two
more days would brinjr tbe debate to a
dots if It could continue without inter
ruption.
Senator George expects to encounter
considerable opposition to thr bank
ruptcy hill. It ia understood that ad
vocates ol tbo Terry bill oppose the
pending bill. Tho fight will he in a
general n«' between the ailvocatea of
voluntary bankruptcy aud those of in
voluntary bankruptcy.
SPAIN AND AMERICA.
The TurliT Troniilm Are Settled Slxo p'
In Mluur nutans.
Washington, Jh>i. B.—As indicated in
the exclusive Associated Press cable
grams from Madrid tbe negotiations be
tween the etsle department and the
government of Spain looking to the
restoration of tho tariff on American
products entering Cuba and Porto Rico
has almost reached a antiefnetory con
clusion.
It ia true that pome minor details re
main to be adjasied, but little difficulty
is exuected in aeenrinz thoir settlement.
It appears that in conceding to the
United States the benefits ol tbe mini
mum tariff Spain nr. altio seemed a
anbaiantiul advantage. Her West In
dian colonies ordinarily supply tbe
United States with about 75 per cent of
tho sugar imported into the country.
Thus the sugar is liable to a duty of oue
tenth cont per pound over and above
the 40 per cent duty imposed on Cuban
sugar and in onnsequeaoe the Cuban
planters practically receive a portion
equal to the discriminating duty paid
by Elnropean eugars, and it is believed
will thus be ablo to control the market
of the greatest sugar oouaumtug country
on tbe globe.
