WASHINGTON , D. C. , Aug. 4. The session
of the house today from 11 o'clock until 1
was Important and interesting , although nt
no tlmo nn exciting ono. It was Interesting
a that a resolution was adopted making
.oa&y suspension day. It was important in
that another resolution was adopted extend-
ng the civil appropriation until August 10 ,
and still another sanding the sundry civil
) lll to a conference ) and taking up the ap
propriation to grant $ -,503OJO ! to aid in the
rroat , exposition. The Durburrovv bill was
considered In comtnlttco of the whole , but no
final action wus takon.
Ilolman of Indiana moved to suspend tno
rules and pass n Joint resolution extending
until August 10 the sundry civil nppro-
iriation. AgreaJ to.
llolman then moved that the house recon
sider the vote by which It agreed to Iho son-
ute World's ' fair tipproprlntlon amendments ,
nnd that the bill l5b sent , to conference.
Agreed to bv a vnto of II" to S3 , no ono mate-
nu the point of no quorum.
A long colloquy ensued between PloUlor
and llollly of Pennsylvania as to the terms
of the agreement or compromise on lha
World's fulr npproptlation miitlor. Kollly
oxnlHlnnd that no ono was bound to vote

led by the Durborow bill , wliluh It Is uro-
loaod to have voled on Saturday , in lieu of

Mr. Holman'.s motion to suspend the rules
and nddpt the resolution WAS agreed to by a
vote of 141 to 5 ana tliu sundry civil bill wus
sant to n conference.
MoasM. Holman , Sayros and Bingham ,
were appointed conferees.
Mr. Hellly of Pennsylvania moved to sus
pend the rules and adopt a resolution pro-
elding that immediately after its adoption ,
the bouse proceea to tbo consideration of the
substitute for the Durborow bill , ; such snb-
itituto Is to bo considered an original bill.

Mr. Bniloy of Texas demanded a second
and it was oraorod by u vote of 1011 to 0.
Mr. Bailey protested , agatnsl the rojolu-
tlon as beiug a high-handed nnd unprece
dented proceeding. The resolution violated
the agreement of the democratic caucus.
Nowhere In tbo agreement was there any
resolution requiring the democrats to vote
for a cloture resolution ?
Mr. Cnlbcrson of Texas took issue with
his colleague ana urged the faithful carrying
ou. . of an honorable agreement.

Mr. Hellly's resolution was then ugrood to
by a vote of 187 to 7 , nnd then Mr. Bailey
started on n brief course of filibustering. Ho
received no backing , however , and nftorn few
minutes the parliamentary string cnmo to nn
end , and Hellly was recognized to call up the
Durborow bill amended so 0.1 to provide for
an appropriation of $ J,5UOOUO.
The bill was considered In committee-
the whole ( Mr. Dockery ol Missouri In the
chair ) .
Mr. Atkinson of Pennsylvania offered an
amendment prohibiting the sola of intoxicat
ing liquors on tno fair grounds. This led tea
a discussion involving the question of the
sale of liquors in the house restaurant and
the recent charges made by Mr. Watson , but
nothing cnmo of it.
Mr. Atkinson's amendment was defeated
by a vote of 3-t to 7. Various other amend
ments were proposed , but were voted down ,
and then the committee arose and the house
adjourned.
IN THU Hi\ATK.
It Approves the Ki-iohitlon Intending the
Appropriations.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , Aug. 4. The session
of the sonata today was simply an exhibition
of a waiting crnmo in legislation. Having
completed its full share of tbo task , the scu-
ate had nothing to do but to rest on its oars
and abldo the action of tbo house. Tbo
Joint resolution extending until August 10
the appropriations for the service of the
govern mont in the various bureaus covered
by the sundry civil appropriation bill was re
ceived from the house as soon as the Journal
of yesterday was road , and it was passed by
the sonata after an Interchange of views oa
the part of Messrs. 1'oscoo and Allison.
The resolution reported yesterday from
the committee on contingent expenses , au-
thorb.lni : the comtnlttco on the quadroccn-
tonnlal to visit the World's fair buildings at
Cbtcatro to obtain information ai to the ex
penditures , was laid before tbo senate and
Mr. Cockrcll opposed it , vehemently de
claring that these multitudinous arrange
ments for sonata committees during the re
cess would turn out to be disgraceful. The
resolution was rejected and Mr. Pottigrow ,
chairman of the quadrocontonnial committee -
too , moved a reconsideration. No action was
taken on the motion.
After receiving a message from tbo house
that that body insists on a disagreement to
the World's fair amendments to the sundry
civil bill and requested u further conference ,
the senate adjourned until - o'clock ' tomor
row.
\vu.i , in : A DONATION.
Such U the Clutrnotiir or the Now World's
Fair Illll Not ICcpri-miuttul nt I'lilou.
WASHINGTON . D. C. , Aug. 4. The compromise -
promise World's fair bill , which is now be
fore the house is similar In terms to the bill
reported to the senate and tbo house by the
committees oa the Columbian exposition and
afterwards Incorporated in the sundry civil
appropriation bill , with two important
changes. Ouo of those Is lha reduction of
tbo amount of the appropriation from
15,000.000 to ? J , 00OOOj the other Is the omis
sion of the suction that provide' , for a return
to tbo United States of a share of tbo prolits
of tbo fair , and , as it now stands , the appro
priation will be an absolute donation. Tno
timidity closing paragraph Is retained In the
bill.
Disappointment is expressed at the Nnvv
department at the failure of the uunbou't
Bennington to arrived at Pales in time to
participate In the Columbian celebration
yesterday. The Hannlngton gulled from tit.
Vincent on the Wth ulu. and It was con-
lldcutly expected that she would reach Pulos
in good season. The olllcors of the flagship
Newark were present , but Iho ship could not
cnior the narbor on account of ner draught
und hud to romalm at Cadiz. Therefore , It
appears that thu United tilitlod was not rep
resented by a vessel at the ceroiuoulos.

It characterizes as an attempt to smlich the
son of the president by the use of some in
cidentals In tbo evidence. The facts are ,
it gavs , that a certain party
in to res ted In the park association
assuming that Mr. Harrison would have
some Inlluenra with the unknown secretary
of tbo Interior to bo appointed , proposed to
induce Mr. Harrison to use such supposed
influence for the benefit of the association
and remunerate him with fifty shares of the
stock. But thn stock wn never issued , the
minority holds ; Mr. Harrison was never ro-
quustud , except by Waters , to so use his in-
Jlucnce , und there was no need that ho
should do so. The whole thing was evi
dently a fraud , the minority continues , nnd
ono of Gibson's tricks , and the majority
report Is unsupported by a single particle of
evidence against Mr. Harrison , and its com
ments are wholly uncalled for.

WASHINGTON. D. C. , Aug , 4. r
It has become qulto evident during the
closing hours of congress thnt the domo-
cratloand nlllanca forces did not doslro any
information touching national banks the
taxes paid by them to the government nnd
to the states and local authorities ; the
taxes paid by state banks nnd banking as
sociations nndor the not Imposing n 10
per cent tax on their circulation ; the
amount of conipnratlvo loss under the na
tional and atnto banking systems , nnd
amount of profit of national banks , This
was made qulto plain by the defeat of Rop-
rescntatlvo Ualzoll's resolution calling on
the secretary of tbo treasury for that Information
mation ; and , slraugo to say , such nn alll-
nnco representative as Kem of Nebraska
nnd such a democrat as Bryan of Nebraska
voted to kill the resolution , and Alliance. Mo-
Kolahan voted the other way.
The result was , after the alllanco members
and democrats In tbo house had defeated the
resolution , that Senator Sherman nt onca
offered his resolution on the subject , and the
senate adopted It. The theory hero of the
democrats and alliance men in the house nn
this matter is that so much no phis try and'
lying has been Indulged in and circulated
among the pooplothat It was deemed politic
to keep the people in Ignorance until after
the election.
\Vlmt the rignros Indicate.
Some tiino ago the necrotary of the treas
ury made an exhaustive report touching the
amount of our circulation , by years , from
1SUO to the time , and It was then shoxvn that
the highest amount was about § TOOOut'J. ! > 3
In 1800. aim that it Is about $ l.VJfl,000,000 nt
this tlmo , or moro than double what It was
at the hlghost Hood during nnd succeeding
tno close of the late war. This showing bus
boon a severe Plow to the green bacic-nllianco
crowd , and especially to Senator * Peffer and
Kyle , who have attempted to show to the
contrary.
And now wo are promised some additional
Information that wilt not please the alllanco
people. All sorts of statements concerning
national banks nnd that system have Peon
circulated , nnd It has , tardily , perhaps ,
moved tbo republicans to such action us will
eventually pluco the facts before the
people and thus enable those who hnvo been
deluded to SPO for themselves. T' " i
It is known that the state banks , pnoi"1 , J
their suspension in 1837 , expanded their cir
culation from $1)1.000,000 ) to 8140,000,000 In
seven years , nnd the collapse followed , from
whlcn it took twelve yoara to recover , and
tn at , following on the beols ot this , these
stuto banlcs run down their circulation be
tween 1337 and 1843 to about $53,000,000 , a
contraction of $91,000,000.
It is also a fact that in 1841 at least flfty-
Ave stnto banks failed , bavin ? a capital of
3317,000,000 , and that it was n total loss. It
is also of record that in 1837 thirty-two state
banks failed in Massachusetts alone , with a
loss of over SiDOT,000.
In Ohio in 1855 there were flftv-ono state
banks and the very next year thirty-six of
thorn had failed , some of tnoir notes being
worthless , whllo these of others were worth
only 50 to 75 cents on the dollar.
Iiiilhinn Stiito llnnkg.
State banks In Indiana for twenty years
Palo from 1'J to 14 per cent dividends , but In
1850 llfty-ono of her ninety-four banks bad
suspended , nnd their bills wore selling nt a
discount of from 25 to 75 per cent. In Illi
nois tbo "Stuto Bank" was chartered in
1S-I , but Its notes were soon quoted at 75 per
cent of their face , then at DO , mid finally they
ceased to circulate at alt. And so on to the
end of the chapter.
The Idea that the national bank system Is
n "monopoly" Is tno principal objection to
the national banking system ; that It is a
"monopoly" sustained nt the expense of the
government In the intercut of private indi
viduals , The reverse of this hasty assump
tion Is shown to bo true by the law and the
facts. The real monopoly existed under the
old state hank system , which tbo democrats
