all the injurious statement* In the

therefor, ns thuto can exist no solidarity

he be the présidait thereof.
Your next step will be to ascertain
whether a libel In* been published by
him or by the conpany, or by both, ns

State Wéfe laid upon the toble, it, be
game more than a personal matter, and
the claimant »had no right to withdraw
them. He took issue with the Senator
from Indiana? Mr. ; Motion, as to the
MeEoery gorsrawetit being a fraud
J
wns a fraud and the record would show
it. He argued that the Senate was stop
ped bv tho report of the committee
from recognizing tb*j K«; I logg govern
ment.
Mr. Howe d«uiied that the Senate was
est«jpped by the report of tho commit
tee. Ho would not consider himself
estopped by t he report of any commlt
t«ie.
Mr. Whyte said it occurred to him
that the credential» of any person, after
being once placed in custody of the Sen
ate, couhl not be withdrawn. They
came to the S«tnate front a »overeign
Stute, an<i it wo» the right of a State to
lay before the Senate of the United
State» a certificate that »he had exer
cise«! her sovereign power by electing a
Senator of the United States. Without
reference to the question whether Me*
Enery or Kellogg was elected Governor
of Louisiana, he argued that McMillan
h«d no right, to come here and ask to
withdraw his papers. He move«l that
motion to grant the request to with
draw be ref«'rrc«J to Committee on Privi
leges and Elections. Rejected without
division.
Mr. Bayard inquired in whoso custody
these credentials were fo be delivered,
in case the Senate acceded to the r«;
quest. They came from the State of
Louisiana, and could not be delivered
to Mr. McMillan. He read from the
record to show that McMillan's creden
tials were also presented by Mr. West
and referr«!«! to the Committee on Privi
leges and Elections.
Mr. Howe ho ill he «||«J not desire to
raise issue with any Senator on the other
side as to the custody or value <>f these
precious papers. Undoubtedly they
came before the Senat«; In su«;h a shape
as to place them on the Journal an«!
make them (»art. of the record. He
argu«'d that ft had always lsxm the
practice of the Senate to allow papers
in regard to claims to be withdrawn.
No lnjuatlc«; would bo done by allowing
the claim to be withdrawn, a tel he whs
I n favor of it.
Mr. Bayard said he believed In his
soul that Mr. McEntffy was tho legal
Governor of Louisiana and had been
kept from his place by usurpation and
Federal power. (Slight applause in the
gallery hut promptly checked.]
The question being oir the motion of
