Bro desirous , no doubt , of being rec
ognised under Mr. Kyner's military
code. The speeches were short nnd
to the point' . The argument was
chiefly centered Upon the amendment
to include cities of the sec jud class in
the bill. In the course of the debate
it was set forth that this bill was more
especially frame 1 to paralyze about
ono hundred saloon keupers out of
the one hundred and fifty-seven , who
now flourish in Omaha.
Mr. Broatck confirmi-il this state

Sir. McShano , of D3uijla , nffered an
amendment to thn amendment mnkipg

it was los. . .
Mr. Oace. of C. < iy , araended.further ,
tn include villages , making it "cities
of the first and second cla's , and vil
lages. " Ho aiwin this bill an oppor
tunity to immortalize his name. Oo
looked to the future , aud didn't eee
why he hadn't the same right to fame
a ? any other man. He realized the
fact that many members were seeking
tn tnnke a reco.d on this question.
They also had an eye peeled to the
future. But this was right.
He was in favor of ranking
the license $500,000 , if he
thought tuch a bill conld be passsed.
Ho was for prohibition first , last and
all the time , and lie winted to help |
make it possible for the coming gen
erations to say , "Ho was a member of
the legislature of 1881 , which put a ,
stop to whisky-guzzling. " He wanted '
an apltauh carved and placed over him I
after 'ne had been laid a.vay to re < t. |
He didn't want the world to forcet I
that ho 'had "made a reoordf He '
told the reporters to do all >
they could to immortalize his' '
name. His speech was interrupted by
repeated rpplauso.
Mr. Kyuer , of Douglas , moved that
the chair appoint a committee of
three'to write an epitaph for the * gen
tleman from Clay. , , |
Mr. Case "I want live men oa the
committee ; so don't put Kyuer on ! " i
Mr. Case's amendment tn include
villages was unanimously adopted.
When the committee arose it rec
ommended that the bill be pa'sed as
amended. The passage of this bill is
considered very doubtful. Quite a
number who favor restrictiou or pro
hibition are oppra-'d to it because it is
limited to incorporated towns.
The Bonit * passed Senator Taylor's
bill yes'erday , which repeals an act of
1870 , for the "repayment of moneys
paid as taxes on lands , the title of
which rests in thu state , by parsons
holding such lands under contract ( .f
sale or by lease. "

Mr. Doane rose to protest against
the reception of this raport. He de
nounced the action of the chairman
of the railroad committee as an un
warranted and high handed assump
tion of authority. It was his duty to
submit the pending bill * and resolu
tions to the whole committee. He had
no right to make a report in the name
of the committee unless all members
had an opportunity to yote nn it This
was the most important subject before
the legislature and It was an Insult to
thla body to attempt te dispose of it
in such a summary manner.
The senate unanimously ordered the
report recommlted , and this scheme
of the railroad managers to strangle
legislation failed at the threshold ig-

who expected a break following the

after which the convention adjourned
until to-morrow.
Leading Ponnsjlvanln politicians
are of the opinion that the clango of

deadlock will continue- , and the only
change will bo that Beayor will not bo
able perhaps to secure all the votes
Oliver had. Gen Beaver was chair

WASHINGTON , February 11 1 a. m.
It has been repeatedly stated since
the presidential election that Vico-
Prcsident elect Arthur is not a native
of the United States. There has been i
a number of circumfitanti > l publics- '
tions pretending to show that he w.is
born in Canada. If he was , he can- |
notj of course , take the office to which .
he was elected. The attention df the '
senate committee on privileges and j
elections has been called to the doubts
ns to Mr. Arthur's natiyity that haye
arisen. The committee has been furnished - '
nished additional evidence on the sub
ject outside of the publications made. ,
Several members of the committee
belibve that Gen. Arthur ia not an
American by birth. It ia the inten
tion of the committee to investigate
the subject thoroughly. This will be
done in order that steps can be taken
tu prevent General Arthur assuming )
the office of vlce-preildent in caie it j
shall be found he is not a native. ,

lowing interrogatory reply : "If Sen
