Washihgtok. Deo. 14. Sesate Th
Senate resumed oonsideration of Mr. An
thony's resolution to ereate a committee oa
retrenchment, with Trumbull's amendment
air. Wilson warned hia Rennhlioaa
friends that they were placing their party
ia a false nosition before the nniinin
Already there were millions ihronehont

were republican th:eves as well as Demo

was to him the far more hateful of the
two, beoanae he brought disgraoo upon the
Repnbhoan party. But, notwithstanding
11s defeots, the present administration was
tar purer and more emoient than its prede
cessors.
Mr. Blair called the Senate ' attention to
the ease ia Arkansas, where the District
Attorney and Marshal were both removed
from offioe for proouring aa indictment
against a man fur violating a law of the
Lnited Slates.
W ilson did not know of the case, bat
be did aot desire to boast of the purity of
uo naminiatration. He desired, however,
to be just, therefore, he eaid, it was
seeking progress in a right direotion,
though a good deal more of it waa neoes
sary.
Mr. Nye opposed Mr. Trumbull's resolu
tion, and said certain Republicans who
thought tiie President was becoming too pop
ular, aevisea tne scQeme 01 civil servioo re
form, and under that crv they were now at
tempt log to revive the old oommittee with
a" the extraordinary powers for eendinr
for
persona ana papers.
Mx. Schurz replied to Mr. Nye, and ia the
course of his remarks said the legitimate
sphere of the comedian is generally within
tne stage, but if the Senator was satisfied
with tue role he plays, no one else has rea
son to complain. Thoae who delisod their
oeuse always resort to certain lines of defen
ces to attempt lo throw suspicion oa others'
motives.
Mr. Soharz also replied to the remarks of
Mr. Conkiing, made yesterday, in reference
to the New, York custom house, and declared
that the earns abases exposed by the com
mittee of investigation existed to tbis day
and reiterated bis former remarks in which
he had declared that when the most respect
able merchants of New York bad protested
against it, when the Secretary had repeated
ly proaoaaoed agaiast it, when the oommit
tee on retrenchment bad denounced it, aud
when it was still sustaiaed aad kept alive
mere must be some mysterious power sus
taining that system stronger than a decent
ragava ior pnblie optaioa and stronger than
ine oeoretary ot the Ireasury himself.
Ur. bhurz eonoluded bis remarks bv as
sorting bis only purpose in the course he
was pursuing was to secure reform and in
this be was in dead earnest.
JUr. Upton followed ia suDDort of Mr.
Trumbull's proposition, referrinar to the
statement of Morton yesterday that the ob
jeot ot friends of that proposition was to
show that great corruption exists under the
present administration, and lay that waa
exactly what he wished the people to under
stand, tie denied the statement that it was
an attt 1 opon the Republican party. O
the eontrary, be desired to redeem the party
from the ourse that bad oome npon
through mistakes of the administration and
oormption ' of its omoials. ue believed
there was corruption deep, damoinv and
lestering all through this administration
