VII. OMAHA , NEB. , THURSDAY MORNINGMARCff ! 14 , 1878. NO. 232. TELEGRAPHIC , VERY LATEST. SENATE PROCEEDINGS. Washington , March 13 Mr. Mer rimon introduced a bill to'provide for and regulate counting of votes for president and vice president , and decisions or questions arising there on. .Referred to a special commit tee. Mr. Merrimon expressed the hope tbat a report would Boon be made , as four mouth ? of the session had passed and action should ba had upon the matter soon. Mr. Kellogg Introduced a bili to aid tbe New Orleans and Pacific railroad company. Referred. Also to establish a mint at New Orleans , authorizing coinage of gold and silver thereat , and making au appropriation therefor. Keferred. Mr. Matthews called up the mo tion to refer the communication of the Secretary of the Interior In re gard to timber depfcdutions to the committee on public lands and have it printed in tne recotd. Mr. Matthews - thews eald he asked to have the document printed in the Record as a matter of justice as the depart ment from which it emlnatea had been attacked yesterday in the oen- ate. ate.Mr. Mr. Blaine said he thought tbe secretary of tbe interior should be beard , but at thesama time tbe sen ator from Ohio must be aware of the fact that he was asking an extraor- dtuary privilege to have this docu ment BO printed. He reserved to himself the right to reply to it be. cause the document was in reply to what he said in the senate upon a recent occasion. Mr. Sargent opposed printing of the document in the Record as a bad precedent , and not because the contents of it was so very creditable to its authors tbat he feared them. He argued the document was made up from statements of spies who followed men into their places of business and reported their conver sations. He referred to the action of Congress in abolishing spies in the custom service , and suia con gress then put the stamp of con demnation npon using Fouche's method of spies. After some further debate .Mr. Matthews read the reply of the sec retary of the interior as part of his remarks. The communication hav ing been read , Mr. Blaiue spoke at length on the actiou of the secreta ry of the interior. He said the sec retary did not happen to be a native of this country. Ho could not help that , and he ( Blame ) did not mention - tion it as u reproach to him. He was born in the kingdom of ' Prussia' , which was 15,000 square miles less in extent than Montana , aud the secretary , perhaps , with the instinct of his boyhood , applied the land laws of Prussia to Montana , and not the land laws which have oeen used in settling the United Stales. The Secretary of the Interior forgot the magnitude of our country , although he was charged with administra tion of that department , which he should study carefully , and that the one dollar per acre stumpage exact ed by him from the people of Mon tana was excessive. The woodland within sight of the spire of Trinity Church , JNew York City , would not bring that stumpnge which tbe secretary of tbe inte rior demanded of the people ot Montana. It was a thing conceded by the government that the hardy pioneer who went forward to settle the country should have the water , air and wood free. Referring to the abolition ot the informer's system in the customs service , abolished ished a few years ago , he epoke of the course of itie secretary of the trrasury , then a member of the senate , and said he waxed wroth because a rich importer -was interfered with by detectives , but now the lonely settler in Montana conld be visited by spies and pimps. Pending discussion the subject was laid aside , and the West Point i appropriation bill was taken up. Mr. Thurmau called up the Pacif ic railroad sinking fund bill , that it might be unfinished business to morrow , and the Senate at 4:30 : p. m. adjourned. Fui tbcr fnrilenlara Ironi Ui Storm Cheyenne , March 13. All rail roads to ths ! place are nov. openex ; cepting the Colorado Central , vhtch has still about eight miles of hard packed snow to clear. The Denver Pacific train reached here at nocii to day. Trams from the west on the Union Pacific came through this morning. Coaches on the Black Hills stage Hue depart daily , but will doubtless be much delayed going through. The loss of life from the storm will be considerable. On Thursday last a party of five men Joe Con- now , H. J. McCann , Charles Wilson and Messrs. Card and Kuntz loft Laramie City for a hunt. They were oaugbt in the storm. The bodies of the last three named were found yesterday. Con- aoy's body and the bodies of two horses were found this afternoon. McCann is still missing. Jfcvr Hnmpstilre Election. Boston , March 13.

One of he results of the silver law is tbat he Secretary of the Treasury has sked Congress for seventy five housand dollars to build new vaults or the reception of silver. Mr. lewitt , of New York , who opposed he silver bill , says the appropria- Ions committee , of which be is a aember , will report the bill favora- ly. iMembera of the Senate finance ommittee eay that the postpone ment of action on the bill to repeal he resumption act is duo to two auses : first , to know the effects of he silver law , and second , to ascer- ain the amount of silver the Sec- etary will issue monthly. The Secretary of the Interior IB ikely ? to soon make a decision that rill be of vast Importance to West- rn land grant road * . This new epartureis based upon the decision f the United Wtates Supreme Court i the Osage land case. The court eld that the road was not entitled > land indemnity in the lace of lands disposed of by the Fnited States prior to the grant , 'bis ' decision changes the previous y ractice in the land office , and u reatly reduces the grants to many B Dads. The land office Is now read- ol isting the grants to conform to * , jls decision. Four western roads ave been readjusted. The Wiscon- it n Central has already received itBi 1,800 acres more than it is entitled Bifr > , and its grant is reduced from frbi 50,000 acres to 687,000. The Hast- bik : igs and Dakota road.in Minnesota , is reduced from 1,251,141 acre * to isdi 15,538. The readjustment will di roceed until all reductions are tl tade. 01 M'GABRAHAN. leThe leG Nearly every public man now G ere has during the day denied in witive terms all improper connec- on with the McGarraham claim , id the latter still persists that the retended stock list submitted by 10 counsel of the New Idria Com- my is bogus , and some of the roofs he submits seem to prove his isertion BO far as several of the imeg are concerned. His letters , Dwever , have killed his case bend - > nd redemption , and the general i ) pe now is that the investigation ill enable him to expose the New tria Company and their part in bbylng operations here. The Senate finance committee ill meet to-day to consider the re- COw imption repeal bill. Several weeks w ; o a majority of the committee fodi ipeared to be in tavor of repeal , diH it the gradual decline of gold has H tanged the opinion of many , and Se e indications are that it will be in- ot flnltely postponed. Should it by otur ly chance be passed by the Senate , ur e President will certainly veto it , urwl id It cannot be enacted over his wlbo ito.

THE OLD GAO. The.

' ! * The committee on ways and means yesterday decided to substi tute the Surflhard postal savings bond for the Wallace popular bond bill , which passed the senate a few days Bffo. In the post office depart ment the postal savings scheme Is looked upon Very unfavorably , as they doubt the practicabil ity of its execution with the present average postmaster. They state that the utmost limits of HH opera tion Wduld be in tbe cities where the money order system is in vogue and , therefore , would meet the re quirements and Interests of but a very small portion of the popula tion1. tion1.The fisheries question , when tbe subject of an appropriation to meer award cornea fairly before Corifess. will lead to a controversy protracted and determined in Congress , as well as in administration circles. The award is regarded as excessive , and while there is no disposition on tbe part of the government to avoid an honorable settlement , there is likely to be a very thorough ventilation ot the circumstances aud irregularities attending the organization and de- liberatlonsof theGommieslon , which may make its decision not as cred itable as might be desired. Thoi'lrst ; Dollar. Philade'phii Special to ChicagoTribano. There had been DO announcement of the time for beginning the coin age of the new silver dollars at the mint , so it was by accident that your correspondent , dropping In at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon , was the only press representative there to see the first of the new coinage wade. The dies were finished soon after noon and tbe first pair was placed in the largest coining ma chine , used for the doable eagles. A little time was spent and a half-dozen planchets spoiled before the diea Were exactly adjusted. Then Albert Downing , foreman of tha coining room , put a polished planchet under the press , and , giv ing the wheel a single revolution , the first dollar was stamped. It was removed by hand , and , critical examination developing flaws , tbe pressure-was readjusted aud another put in. Ten more wera then coined , but the eleventh was founu defective , and thip , as well as the first , was at once defaced aud returned to the melting room. The first twelve having been struck on polished planchets , were removed by hand to prevent indentation , ana each inclosed in an envelope numbered to how the order of its coinage. The first goes to the President and the second to Secretary Sher man. The first was struck at 3:17 : , aud at 3:35 steam was turned an and the dollars began merrily clanking iuto the box at the rate of sighty a minute. To-morrow tveo more pairs of dies will be finished , ind another machine put to work 30 that on Thursday , when ten more tvill be done , four machines will be t work , turning out $150,000 of the aew jshiners a day. The dies for the San Francisco and Carson mints will be ready then , and will be for- ivarded then. The first delivery will DB made on Thursday. The Secre- ary has as yet made no orders for ho issue of the new coinage , but it s believed tbat it will be leaned only 'or gold coin , because it will com- nand the same price readily. Or- lera are already in for millions from torekeepers , who want them for idvertteing purposes. Whatever liver Cuda its way into the treas- iry will be oromptly paid out for he purchasing of bullion for coin og purpoees. Governor of Wyoming. Washington special to the Chicago Times. [ AYES STIRS UP THE 'ANIMALS WASHINGTON , March 13. P ' PBl President Hayes cast another fire Bl Blti rand into tbe senate to-day , in the tiw tiB omination of John W. Hoyt , of w B Vieconain , to be governor of Wyo. i ? ling. This was unexpected to the iibi Viscrnsin senators , as they had bi ever urged Hoyt's name In con- DC ection with the governorship of PI ) Vyoming territory. They had en- HI HIG orsed him eouio time ago , and all G ocated hia appointed to a gover- orahip of one of the territories , [ ad they been given preference in 10 matter they would have urged ay thing but Wyoming , for the rea- tr ju thut Gov.'lhayer'dterm has not fn et expired , and bis removal will tbPC udoubtedly raise opposition to PC loyt's continuation that would not th therwiso bo the case. Nil Goy. Thayer , present occupant of ho gubernatorial chair of Wyom- ig , is a Nebrast a man. He served M x years as United States senator J om that state and is strongly D cked by the biggest element N in bis state. No of oown own reason ofV assigned " for his removal , but , ta- ofM en" in connection with the ( nets M eveloped in the recent debate on ofIi 10 bill to amend an act of the Wy Ii Ming legislature which practically erTl igislatcd Judge Peck out of office , Tle ov.Thayer's removal does not seem ! e surprising. It will be remembered ator Davis when cc 3 , dilating upon 10 uuparulloled monstrosity of thut inC cislative act in virtually defying C < le f resident of the United States y voting bis appointee out of office , tid that he was surprised at the w. . ivernor of Wyoming for signing Jom le act referred to , and if he ( Davis ) m as President of the United States , would settle that governor in five f * iluutes. President Hayes seems th have acted upon this suggestion , pe id has made It an excuse for oust- COpr ig one of Grant's appointees. Tbe pr ctreme Western Senators , and di pecially Senators Paddock , Teller , th id Saunders swear eternal ven ce sanco on Haye ° . lie Paddock says th t when the time bj imcs he will make the welkin ring do ith his objections to Hoyt , and be- 13f re he gets through he croposes to 13m f sh up a few passing thoughts as to m ; bat he thinks or Senator Davis , mi e says that no man , not excepting sh > nator Davis , would have acted CO herwlse than did Gov. Thayer in tic ; nlng that bill ; that it was the tig ' lanimous act of tbe legislature , 'reU hich was largely democratic in U ith houses , and to have vetoed lit would" have been foolhardy , tin ore especially from the fact tbat ai iblio clamor was loud on all sides r Judge Peck's removal. This YIELDING TO PUBLIC CLAMOP I ainst bis conviction , or against clt at respect which a governor of a lorme irritory , who is a federal appoin- me pel 3 , ought to have for the President clt .d Senate , is Just what Senator tie ivis objected to. Senator Pad- wo ck says that Hoyt will be rejected oci tbout doubt. He is preparing for tb < vigorous fight at any rate. On e other band , Senator Cameron Iln ys he is a first-rate man and ought wt t to be rejected. . wo l At a sitting ot the Hungarian delegation , Count Andrassy stated that the government had been throughout disposed to recognize the independence but not the neu trality of Roumania. Herr TV"ahr- man protested that the Hungarian delegation was not ruled by a war like feeling but ns calmly nnd stead ily declared its readiness to enter upon war if unavoidably necessary. Several membera expressed concur rence in this view. King Humbert's address to the Italian parliament , it is paid , will affirm more distinctly than ever the unity of Italy , with Rome as the capital. The yountrman is expect ed to be as firm as his father was in thfa respect , and it remains to be seen whether the new Pope will be as firm as the old ono on tbe other sfde. It has been intimated that Leo Kill will endeavor to reconcile the differences between the Church and State , butbis removing tbe Papal - pal residence fourteen milea outside of Rome and the attitude of ili& new King do not look promising for future amity between His Majesty and His Holiness. A cable dispatch from Vienna announces tha death of the Arch duke Francis * , father of the Emper or of Austria. Francis ' Joseph , Prince Imperial and Ar uduke of Austria , 1'riiice Roya bF"Hungary and Bohemia , was bom December 7 , 1802. He was the son of the Emperor Francm I. and of his second end wife , Maria Therese Caroline Josephe , daughter of the late King Ferdinand I. of Naples. He mar ried on the 4th of S ptembpr , 1824 , the Archduchess Sophia .Fredrica Dorothea Wilbelmina. daughter of Maximilian , King of Bavaria , tic renounced his right to the succes sion to tha ArMrian throne , by the act of December 2,1848 , in favor of I bis eldest son , Francis Jcseph , tbe k present Emperor. Besides the em-1 , peror he had three other sons. Count Sclopis , anItalian states man and Jurist , died ntTuriii on tbe 10th of the present month. He was best known in America as a member if the Geneva arbitration board , having been appointed to that pod tion by the King of Italy in accordance with the treaty of Washington. It was great honor done him by fate eov- jrelgn , for the tribunal was a deli- ; ate and important experiment , in lie success of which it might De .aid the whole civilized world had in interest , and tbat success was lependent on the talent and learn- ng , no less than on the liplomatic tact , of the men who night compose the body. Count Sclopis was chosen president , and ho successful and harmonious con- luct of the deliberations of tbe tri- uinal were in n great degree due to be rare combination of qualities hat so admirably fitted him for that tost. His vote determined several ( eci"ions of the tribunal In favor of he United States. Lord Lyons , who will represent England at the conference , and who las been suggested as a successor to jord Derby , has the following in- eresting history : His lordabip has aherited the title gained by his ither , the faimus Admiral Sir Ed- innd Lyons , of the Crimean war , ifc rho was afterwards raised to the c < aerate as Baron Lyons , of Christ- 3M hurch.
