man of Ohio introduced to tha He nets
to-day the following: “Unsolved,
That by Injurioua legislation by tbo
Fifty-third Congrasa, tha revenue*
of tha government were reduced below
Its necessary expenditure and the
funds created for lawful redemption
of United Mates notes have been in
vailed to anpply auch deficiency of
reserve; that auch a misapplication of
the resumption fund la of doubtful
legality arid greatly Injurious to the
public credit and should be prevented
by restoring said fund to the sum of
not less than tlbd.obo.ooo in gold com
or bullion, to bn paid out only in the
redemption of United Htal.es notes and
Treasury notes, and such notes, when
redeemed, to be re-issued only In ex
change for gold coin or bullion.”
When the Honate met Mr. Herb Ins,
Republican, of California asbed unan
imous consent for the consideration of
0 resolution directing the committee
on finance to report an amendment to
the House tariff bill laying an addi
tional duly on raw sugar eijual to tho
other increases of the bill.
Mr. I ferry of Arkansas objected,
it was agreed to adjourn over till
Friday.
Mr Morrill of Vermont explained
that the finance committee dr-dred to
consider the bond and tariff bills on
Thursday.
Mr < handler's resolution, offered
yesterday, a-king tin- committee on
naval affairs to investigate the prices

plate au<l a* to whether any official of
the government was interacted in
patent processes, was called up. At
the suggestion of Mr, Oorrnan tbe
words directing an Inquiry Into tbe
fact* as to whether the price* paid by
tiie United States were “a* low aa
paid by the foreign government#”
were stricken out.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr. Seerman then Introduced bis
resolution, which was listened to with
keen interest, in view of tbe Senator's
utterances against the retirement of
greenback*, lie gave notice that on
Friday he would aubmit some remarks
upon it. l—J
Mr. Mitchel of Oregon then took the
floor and spoke in favor of hi* resolu
tion instructing the ilnance committee
to restore the McKinley duties on
wool in any revenue bill reported to
the Senate.
Senator Mitchell declared that no
industry hail received such a stagger
ing and deadly legislative blow as that
Inflicted upon the wool industry by
the Wilson tariff act. It had drained
from the United States within the last
year $nr,,000,000 In gold to pay for for
eign wool, arid had occasioned a I os#
to the wool grower* of this country of
more than *1,000,000, Unleaa thla leg
islation was changed the sheep indus
try of the I'aciiic coast would be an
nihilated.
Mr. Mitchell said the tariff hill
passed by the House would probably
increase the revenue *40,000,000 a year.
Amended, as it should lie, by afford
ing wool, lumber, barley, hops, and
other agricultural product* adequate
protection it will give an additional
revenue of *10,000,000, and place a
padlock upon the so-called “endless
chain” by which gold is drawn from
the treasury, will stop all necessity
for further issue of bonds and rascue
from I in pending ruin the wool and
other agricultural interests of this
country.
Wlilie Mr. Miicneu w#» conioouing
that the Secretary of the Treasury
could have stopped the gold drains by
using his dmerution to redeem notes in
coin, Mr. liill of New York asked him
if it was not true that greenbacks had
beeu redeemed in gold by every secre
tary since IS7'J.
Mr. Mitchell replied that it might
be true, but in Ins opinion It was very
poor policy.
'•Treasury uoles have only been re
deemed in gold since 1HUI,” interrupt
ed Mr. Cockrell of Missouri.
"Is that a fact?" asked Mr. Mitchell.
"It Is," replied Mr. Cockrell, em
phatically. "in l"<»3 iu respoiisu to a
telegram*sent by mo to Secretary foo
ter he replied tiial the first treasury
note hud been redeemed by him iu
gold in lull I."
"I t hi talking about greenbacka,"
suid Mr. liill.
"Have not all the Secretaries of the
Treasury redeemed these notes in gold

“lirceiihit us were never presented,"
said Mr. Cockrell
"Tin-re was no demand for gold and
that cun he shown on the record. The
Senator from• duo (Mr. Sherman)since

debate followed the adopt Ion of the
resolution organizing the (Senate com
mltteea on the Itepubllcan cauoua ba
sis, a* already reported, the purpose
of wblcb wee mainly political. The
Democrats, urular tba leadership of
henetor Gorman, ably seconded by
feenetor Harris, attempted to show
that tbe reorganization was affected
by an alliance between tba itepubllc
ana and Populists, contending that tba
silence of tbe latter, by making posel*
sibla the reorganization, Indicated ac
Suieaccnce. He also insisted that tbe
epubhean assumption of control sad
dled them with tba responsibility for
legislation.
The Populist*, led by Senator Allan
of Nebraska and (Senator Duller of
North Carolina, denied that they ware
In any fashion responsible for the re
sult. The lief ubllcans, under the
leadershlo of Hcna'or Mitchell, chair
man of tbe Deimbllcau steering com
mittee, and assisted by Senators lloar,
Hale, Allison and ( handler, combatted
tbe arguments of tbe Democrats by
asserting most emphatically that the
Populists bad seen refused to make
any auggestlons as to thair committee
assignments, and had, as a matter of
fact, been left by tbe reorganization
In tbe positions to which they bad
been assigned under the Democratic
control of tbe Senate. The Kepubll
eans strongly protested also against
being held responsible for legislation.
