WASHINGTON , D. C. , Jim. .20. There were
tiot mnny senators In the chamber Uxlny dur
ing the debate on the anti-option bill ; but
Ihoso who wcro present witnessed the ro-
marknblo elreumstnnco of the states rights
democrat , Mills of Tcxns , having his argu
ment against the constitutionality of the
bill suBtalno I by the stalwart republican.
Jllscock of how York. Mills declared his
belief that the sentiment in favor of local
Bclf-govcrnmcnt prevailed from New Unt-
land to the I'aclllo ocean , and Hlscock as
sorted that there had been rarely presented
to conjm-ss n measure in which less regard
liad been paid than wan paid In the ( wilding
measure , cither through periods of legisla
tion or constitutional restrictions.

An effort to pass a hill creating a commls-
plon on the alcoholic liquor traffic , gave Mr.
Vest , di'iiiocrat , from Missouri , an opportun
ity of ventilating his views on sui-h speci
mens of crank legislation , and on these
"philanthropists who wanted to use thu
powers of congress to advance some special
liobby to which thoyarodovotlng thelrothcr-
% vlso useless lives. "
This morning Mr. Chandler Introduced n
resolution dlrot'tlng the committee on llnanco
'to investigate and report nuxt December
Whether thtfio Is a whisky trust organized to
control the inanufaeturo and sale of distilled
liquors ; whether the rebate svstein is used ;
whether adulterations or drugs arc used ,
etc.
etc.From
From 1 to 2 p. m. the senate considered
Mils on the calendar , when the anti-option
1)111 came up. and Mr. Mills made an nrgu-
incut against it.
After further discussion the morning hour
pxplred without action on the alcoholic
Iraflli ; bill.
Mr. Gorman introduced n Joint resolution
nuthorlztng the secretaries of war and navy
to lend enslmis and Hags , otc. ( except battle -
, tlo flags ) , for decoration of the World's fair
buildings , nnd It was passed. Ho also offered
fl resolution for the appointment of a com-
.Tnttteo of llirco senators to malto the ncces-
VJary arrangements for the Inauguration of
the president-elect on the -Ithof March next ,
line ! it was agreed to.
Mr Faulkner gave notice that on Fobrti-

The credentials of Henry Cabot Lodge as
ponator from the state of Massachusetts , be-
pinning March 4 next , wcro presented and
placed on Illc.
The bill heretofore offered by Mr. Bate ,
democrat , from Tennessee , to repeal all
ptatutcs relating to supervisors of election
ntul special deputies , was taken from the
table and referred to the Judiciary commit
tee.Mr
Mr Chandler offered a resolution , which
vas referred to the finance committee , In-
'ptructing tlmt committee to inqulro into the
existence nnd purpose of n whisky trust.
Senate bill , for the establishment and en
forcement of rules nnd regulations for the
navigation of canals was reported and passed.
These senate bills , among others , were
passed : To nuthori/o the Missouri Itivor
J'owcr company of Montana to construct a
ilsm across the Missouri river ; to provide
Jr the reservation of certain timber lands
jnpon the Slletz Indian reservation for the
JJCMOIlt of the Indians.
The anti-option bill was then taken up ,
1 ftiid Mr. Mills , democrat , from Texas , made
n speech against the bill as being aimed
ngalnst the existence of state governments.
IIo thought that the republican statesmen
were mistaken in regard to the states rights
sentiment of the people of the United States.
The people of the United States loved their
local self-ROvcrnment. They clung to It
with nn Instinct which told them their liber
ties depended upon its preservation. Ho
( Mills ) would not hesltato to stand before
miy audience in the union , from the rockbound -
bound coast of Maine across to the Pacific
ocean , and down to the south , and vindicate
the right of every state in the union to a
government of its own people in Us own way ;
nnd ho would do it with' the approval of his
audiences. The general government had no
right to suppress immorality in the states.
If it had , then it had a right to establish im
morality in the states. It had no right to
punish murderers in the states. If it had ,
then it had n right to go into a state and turn
them loose.

By nn India rubber system of construction
cf the constitution , congress had a right to
regulate commerce in states ns pro ] > osed in
the pending measure. It could go farther ,
jiud regulate the production of the specified
nrtlclcs. Passing on from the constitu
tional argument , Mr. Mills declared that ho
would not Hiipjiort ; the bill because It was
not n regulation of commerce , nnd because
it could not affect the price of cotton , wheat
or corn , or any other agricultural product.
"FutW"1 sales , ho declared , were a part of
tbo business system of the country. There
was not a ncnutor who could go to his state
nnd face his constituents after voting to
mnko all "future" sales of agricultural prod
ucts Illegal. No senator who had done so
could stand up before the storm of indigna
tion which ho would have provoked.
The mllUary commandant of u post could
iiot bo expected to go out every morning and
buy the corn wanted for 1,0 < )0 ) horses. Con
tracts for the supply of corn had to bo made ,
oven before tbo corn was planted or the land
plowed. Kvcry ono would admit that a sys
tem of "future" sales was absolutely neces-
BHry and essential to the facility of commer
cial transactions. The system was simply a
utilization and capitalisation of credit.
Mr Hiseoek opposed the bill. The great
volume of wheat , corn nnd cotton would not
bo diminished or increased by such legisla
tion , and yet the proosltion ) was to take | K > S-
Hcsston of the markets of Now York , Mlnne-
upolls , Chicago nnd Now Orleans nnd to
control the manner In which contracts were
tnado. Ho believed that ull legislation like
that promised was vicious , and ho bolloved
that If the bill was erystalUed into law it
would become the basis of the most gigantic
trust that over existed in the United States.
When Mr Illscock finished his speech
Mr. Blackburn , who had not been ono of his
listeners , came into thu chamber nnd , notic
ing how few senators wcro present , called
nttvntlon to the fact. A call of the senate
followed , and us n quorum of senators did
Hot respond the senate adjourned.

this deficiency had been relieved by an in
creased estimate in the receipts from In-
tcinal revenue. Ho did not at this time
make reference to the liabilities that would
ba entailed for the ensuing fiscal year , In
asmuch as the committee on ways and
means had the matter under consideration ,

N , D. C. , Jan. 20. There was no
formal conference nt the white house today
concerning the vacancy on the bench of the
United States supreme court , but it can bo
stated , on what is said to bo good authority ,
that President Harrison has made up his
mind to nominate a successor to the late
Justice Lamnr.
Among the callers at the white house this
morning were several senators , with whom
ho discussed the question , and to ono of
these President Harrison stated positively
that ho had fully made up his mind to make
the appointment. In order to make the fight
which the democratic senators are expected
to wage over the confirmation of the nominee
ns pointless as possible , the president
will name a man to whom the appointment
will bo in the nature of n well deserved pro
motion , thus carrying out the civil service i
idea. The president will take up the list of [
southern Judges and endeavor to find among
them the man to fit his ideal.
It is the expectation Hint the nomination L
will bo sent in at the end of a week , and the
republicans ot the senate are determined i
that it shall bo confirmed , oven if they have J
to resort to cloture and cast "senatorial I
courtesy" to the winds fo accomplish it.
A prominent republican senator , who gen
erally speaks for his party , said that the re
publicans would refuse to pass any appro
priation bill until the nomination was dis
posed of , and that the democrats would I
hardly care to take the responsibility of t
forcing an extra session of congress in order
to give Mr. Cleveland the privilege of nam
ing a Hid go. That is the situation as expressed -
pressed by republicans tonight.
Justice Lamar presided over the Fifth
judicial circuit , composed of the states of
Georgia , Florida , Alabama , Mississippi ,
Louisiana and Texas , and the peneral cus
tom has been to select a man for the vacancy
who resides in the circuit. The United
States Judge in this circuit is Don A. Pardco ,
and his name has been mentioned among
others as likely to succeed Justice Lamar.
TENSION 11KFOUMS.

ouDaoiI ut Washington.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , Jan. 20. The Star has
this gossip regarding the proposed reduction
in the pension list : "Uecent developments
have aroused a great deal of interest in the
pension question , and there Is a growing con
viction that its agitation Is going to bo the
most prominent feature of the now adminis
tration. Mr. Cleveland has already made a
record on his pension vetoes , which appear
not to have hurt him much in the
last campaign. It is understood that
ho now hopes to effect a complete reform
In the methods of granting pensions
o
course of his administration of pensioners
who are carried I Improperly nnd to cut down
excessive pensions. In this connection n
great deal of discussion was provoked at the
capltol today by the speech of ex-Secretary
Fairchlld atKIchmond last evening , in which
lie told the southern democrats that they
need not staiul back and bo afraid to deal
with the pension question ns it should bo ,
dealt with. There is no doubt felt among ,
democrats that Mr. Cleveland intends to ,
handle the question without gloves , with !
the puriioso to reduce the. annual payment L i
for pensions as low as possible. I
"The talk of transferring the pension ofI I i
llco to the War department is said to grow , ;
out of tbo expectation that Colonel Lament
will bo at the head of that department , and
ho will make the revision of the pension list
and reform the conspicuous work of his ad
ministration of that olllco. Confronted with
an expenditure for pensions rapidly ap l
preaching S.'OO.IWO.OOO a year , nnd at the
same time threatened with a deficiency I"
the treasury nt a time when the party Is
pledged to u considerable reduction of the
customs duties , the democrats feel that
something must bo denote reduce the draft
upon the treasury , and they regard the pen
sion expenditure as otTcring the best possible
opportunity for rotreuccment.
' The proiiositlon to transfer the pension
bureau to tlio War department' to create ina
commission to examine the roll and legisla
tion on thu pension bill , designed to exclude )
from tlio privilege of pensions certain
classes now enabled to draw them , are ull { a
part of the general ] > oliey which is about to
be inaugurated. "
