The House StniEKlcs All Dny and Far Into the Night With a Dis cussion of the Mills Tariff Bill. Scnnte. x , May 8. The scnnto resumed consideration of the railroad land grant for feiture bill , the question bolng on the amend ment offered yesterday by Mr. Palmer to the ono offered by Mr. Spooncr , April 00. Mr. Dolph moved to lay on the table Mr. Palmer's amendment to the Spooncr amend ment , being that nothing in the net should > o construed to confirm any private entry for and heretofore settled upon and now claimed under the color of the homestead or ire omptlon laws ; but in all such cases the ! ommi ionor of the general land office nnd -ho secretary of the Intc'nor shall hoar and lotcrmlno the claims of parties rospeo- ivoly according to tlio provisions effecting ho law. The amendment wa s laid on the table yen * , 3'J ; nays 18. Mr. Palmer offered an amendment that lathing in the bill should bo constructed as excepting from forfeiture that portion of the trant confirmed by the state of Michigan on ho Marquctto & OntonnRon railroad coin- > any lying west of Lansing. Mr. Edmunds moved to recommit the bill to the committee on public lands , with in structions to report It back amended as soon as might bo. Ho wished the committee to re- frame it so as to keep it within definite de cisions of the supreme court to protect every real right of every citizen , and to wind up every unexecuted railroad grant and make an end of it. The motion to recommit was opposed by Messrs. LJlnlr and Dolph nnd was defeated , only nine senators voting for it. The question was then taken on Mr. Pal mer's amendment nnd It was agreed to yeas 34. nays 10. Mr. Hoar offered nn amendment affecting nnds In Michigan , nnd was asked by Mr. Berry whether the effect of it would not bo a confirm the lauds hold by the Portage Ship Canal company. Mr. Hoar replied that it would hav > that affect if it should turn out that the lanf was convoynd to that canal company by nn of- Iccr of the United States. Ho was at loss to conceive bow any man born with the capacity for sense of Justice could refuse to confirm the title under such circumstances. To this Mr. Berry retorted ho was at a loss o conceive how any ono born with a sense of Justice and right would undertake to con firm a tltlo founded in fraud as this title waa shown to bo by the report of the house com mittee on public lauds In the Forty-clglit congress. Mr. Palmer argued against Mr. Hoar's amendment. Mr. Stockbrldgo asserted on his own per sonal knoxvlcdge and In contradiction of the statements by his colleagues that the canal in question was completed and had been in " successful operation for the last fifteen years" . The bill went over without action on Mr. Hoar's amendment and with the understand ing that it will bo taken up to-morrow at the conclusion of the morning business. Among the bills for public buildings re ported and placed on the calendar was ono for Pcoria , 111. , $12,000 additional. A message from the president on the sub- octof impressment into the French army of John Prussia , an American citizen , was laid uoforo the senate and referred to the com mittee on foreign relations. Mr. Stewart ( who offered the resolution calling for the cor respondence ) remarking that the man had been discharged from the French army since the resolution was offorcd. * Mr. Paddouk Introduced a bill to amend the act to encourage the growth of timber on the western prairie. Referred. The senate then adjourned. House. WASHINGTON , May 8. Mr. Bryce of New- York rose to a question of privilege concern ing the language used by Mr. Woodburn of Nevada in reference to ex-Congressman Hewitt , who , it was charged , apologized to the British minister for offering a resolution of inquiry as to the case of O'Donnell , under sentence of death in Great Britain. Mr. Bryce stated ho was a relative by marriage to Mr. Hewitt , and ho denied the correctness of the statement made. lu vindication of the denial ho read a telegram from Mayor Hewitt , and also a statement made by Mm Istcr West in 1884 , denying that Mr. Hewitt had apologized to him. Mr. Woouburn of Nevada said ho had never in hi ? lifo made a charge ho could not substantiate. Ho did not regard the denial of the British minister as a denial of the charge. Hewitt himself was n party defend ant to the charge , and his denial , therefore , lost weight. Mr. Brumin of Pennsylvania said his recollection was , Hewitt had made nn ex planation on the floor , but whether it was made on the floor or not , an explanation ( the mildest term ho could use ) was made by Hewitt Before the committee on foreign affairs. The subject was then dropped and the house wont into committee of the whole on the tariff bill. Mr. Stoukdalo of Mississippi took the floor in continuation of hie speech in favor of the bill. He said the cotton planter had re ceived little consideration in the legislation of the past , and in the name of Justice and humanity he appealed for relief for the col ored people. Mr. Hopkins of Illinois opposed the bill. He said the fact could not bo kept from the people in the coming campaign , that the dem ocratic party stood committed unequivocally and Irrevocably to the doctrine of free trade. That party had come lit power and they were practicing a system of false pretenses upon the American people , unparallolcd in the history of political parties. Did the party send Mr. Carlisle to Now York'bcforo the the election to explain the tarill plank of the Chicago pint form I Did it send Mr , Hemp- hill there to talk to the laborer us ho talked during debute on the floor ) The managers of the democratic party know Now York could never bo rarried in that way. When the columns wore shaken and defeat seemed inevitable they turned to the brainiest and ablest man in the party. They called for Samuel J. Kandall ami ho went to Now York to explain to the voters there that the manufacturing interests of the country would not bo disturbed in event of the success of the democratic party , and that the tariff plank in the Chicago platform meant only u wise and Judicious re-arrange- incut of the Inequalities which nil parties held to exist in the tariff to a greater or loss extent and to require treatment. It had been Randall's boast that his efforts had made It possible for Cleveland to occupy the presidential chair. How had the democratic party repaid his efforts , and how had his pledget been redeemed by that party. If rumor was correct Mr , Kaudull was no longer a visitor at the white house ; his counsel was no long er sought or heeded by his party ; his influ ence had been curtailed by raising up a rival whoso control of federal patronage had been used to humiliate and disgrace the once lion , ored loader of the democratic party. In con clusion ho entered a solemn protest againsl this attempt to overthrow the great business industries of America. Mr. Mansur' of Missouri delivered or exhaustive speech in support of the bill , and ho contended tnat the internal revenue sys tern should bo maintained for the payment ol pensions and the remainder of the war debt Mr. J. 1) , Taylor of Ohio denounced free trade as a fragment of [ the rebellion und a : being as danucrous to the country in 1853 u : secession had been in 1SC1. Free tr ado hai no more right to supplant protection than tin the confederate consititutlon had tx supplant the constltutipn of the UnlUk States. 'Tliu democratic parly was engugpi in uu effort 'to unfurl the British Hag am open American markets to the Brftisl manufacturer , Mr. Htchardson of Tennosteo supporlci the bill and referred to the antagonism o ' the republicans' to , every effort -which th democratic party had . made to fulliU thai plcu'ges of tariff cauciion * . . . Mr. McAdoo of Now Jersey said ho spoke as n democrat. Htfcontcndod the best way n which the surplus could bo reduced \vas > y the abolition1'of ho internal revenue system. Revenue ought to bo limited In amount to the tiocdsioftho government cconl- ideally administered. 0 Mr. Morrow of California argued that no > cttor course coulcUxj uursued with reference to the surplus than to apply it to the purchase of United States bands. Ho was in favor of an economical administration of the affairs of , ho government. No tixtravagnnt expendi tures should bo 'fnaulgcd In , but congress should comply with the1 pro vision of the con- dilution granting It the jwwcr to provide for , ho common defense ana general welfare , The committee then > rose and the house took a recess until 8 p. m. , the evening session to bo for dcbatoupon the tariff bill. At the evening session Mr. Stone of Mis souri laid down thoi propositions that any ar ticle , on which tariff duty was levied , was leccssarlly increased in cost to the extent of , ho duty ; that high tariff by an accumulation of a surplus contracted circulation ; that American manufactures hod nothing to fear trom foreign competition on equal terms ; .hat the tariff has nothing to do with mam- dining a high rate of wages ; that the pro- .cctlvo system tended to concentrate wealth n it few hands , and that the increase of mtlonal wealth during the last thirty years was in no passible sense duo to protection. Mr. Chlpman of Michigan , denied that the Mills bill was a frco trade bill. Ho did riot ) ledge himself in advance to veto for It. ns 10 had some amendments to propose , but : hose amendments ho would offer In por- 'ect good faith because ho believed the bill to bo an honest endeavor to bcnollt the pee ple.Mr. Mr. Martin of Texas contrasted the re spective status of the two sides of the house on the tariff question , declaring that the domocr.Us wore boldly struggling for the In terests of the country , while the republicans , standing on the tariff laws of 1SG1 and 18 % ) , resisted all efforts for tariff revision. In conclusion ho said : "Wo have n campaign )0fore us that is to bo conducted by the dem ocratic party. Wo nro conducting the cam- > algn on a reduction of taxes. They are Ighting the reduction. Wo will have hoisted at the mast head the name of glorious Clove- and , und In fighting the battle of the people vo Will go to Kansas , Iowa nnd Michigan , nnd all other western states , nnd carry them against protection.
