Mr. Farley moved to take the pros
idcnt'a veto message Iroin the table.
Mr. Hoar objected.
Mr. Bayard insisted the mnssage
was unfinished business. )
After discussion of the point of
order to take the veto message from
the tible , Mr. Harris moved to post
pone all unfinished business until to
morrow.
Mr. Bayard siid thorojras great excitement -
citoment in California and ho wanted
; Q know what the senator ? from Oali-
'ornia thought as to imtnoJiato
action.
Mr. Farley said a riot might break
out to-day in San Francisco and urged
'mmcdiato action.
Mr. Sherman remarked there was
10 danger of an outbreak or violence" ,
tie thought the usual business oughl
o bo proceeded with and the Chinese
) ill referred to the committee on for
eign relations. . , ;
Mr. Farley did not think any good
could result from referring or post
poning the matter. ItHvas a question
whether the bill could Vo passed over
the veto or not. j-
Mr. Sherman thought other legis
lation might'tako place which would
not conflict with the president's ' views.
Mr. Farley strenuously objected to
any postponement. His colleague had
introduced a bill before ho knew
whether the present measure would
become .a law or not. The introduc
tion of the bill was J3r/v jatur'o.
Mr. D.iwos opposou present'cdnBicl-
oration of the message.
Mr. In alls urq'od that if the ques
tion could not bo disposed of by the
now bill , it ought to bo considered and
disposed of now.
After further debate unfinished busi
ness was laid aside and the veto mes
sage was taken up.
Mr. Sherman moved to refer it to
the committee on foreign relations.
In the debate as to reference , the
chair hold that reference would not
carry out the spirit of the constitution ,
inasmuch as bills referred were sel
dom reported.
Mr. Morgan appealed from the de
cision of the chair.
Debate ensued , and Mr. Morgan
withdrew his appeal , stating that the
senate evidently desired to vote on
the question.
Mr. Sherman urged the objections
to the measure were sufficient to cause
thorn to pause and have the question
fully discussed in the committee.
Mr Sherman spoke half an hour
in favor of reference , urging that the
bill opposed the spirit of the treaty ,
and that the Chinese government had
a perfect right to regard it as a viola
tion. AVhilo wo should regard the in
terests of California's citizens , wo
should not pass a law that is a disgrace
to the statute books nnd antagonistic
to the letter and spit it qf the consti
tution
Mr. Garland contended that the
committee could give no further lighten
on the matter. The only question
was whether the bill should or should
not pass over the voto.
Mr. Morgan said it appeared that
the Chinese minister had boon al
lowed to make suggestions in regard
to the pending legislation , and the
president accepted thorn in vetoing
this measure. It was strange that
that the ideas of the Chinese ambas
sador should have more influence
with the executive than the majori
ties of both houses of congress. IIo
'
supposed'it wah simply an effort to
smother the bill.
Mr. Bayard contended that reference
enco was wholly and utterly useless.
If the bill was to die lot its friends
say so , but do not undertake by refer
ence to change its features. All that
could bo done now was to vote
whether to make it a law ever the
voto. Ho objected to the language
used in the message , saying there was
no justification for it , cither in fact or
committee traditions of communica
tion and dignified and respectful con
sideration of ono branch of the gov
ernment by the other. The language
was an impugnment of these who
passed the mcaauro after careful de
liberation. Ho denounced the Bur-
lingamo treaty as a humbug. The same
spirit as led to it wanted to present
a measure to fail. There was no word
word in the vote message of sympa
thy with citizens of the Pacific coast ,
but that was a Chinese message from
beginning to end. IIo earnestly hoped
the bill would pass over the voto.
A motion to refer the bill was lost
bv IB to U2 , as follows :
„ Allinuativo Messrs. Aldrich , AH
Platr , Sawyer , Sherman and Wiudom.

A resolution passed to allow the use
of army tents at the soldiers' reunion
at Hock Island , 111
The house went into committee of
the whole on the army appropriation
bill ,
Mr. Blackburn argued in favor of
the transfer of war claims from the
quartermaster's rolls department to
; ho court of claims , saying it wai the
) ractico of that department to black-
nail 5 per cent from claimants for n
report , pioducing a receipt signed by
J. L. McF.irland , late chief clerk of
.ho examination division for money so
ccoived , Mr. Black Urn said ho ii- |
.ended to move for iin investigation.
The houao spoilt the entire dny on
lie army bill. Under a rulinc ; of the
chair the paragraph transferring war
claims in the quartermaster's depart
ment to the court of - claims , w.is
stricken out , but a1 paragraph was a < ld-
ed prohibiting the use of funds appro-
> riated by the bill for oxcmination.bf
luch claims. Provisions will , it" ia
indcratood , bo niado "for'this in the
'sundry civil" bill.
The bill as passed by thoK lipuse
provides that officers may retire after
hirty-fivo years of service , and snail
retire after forty years of service , or
at the ago of 02.
A communication was received from
; ho president transmitting the report
of the secretary of state in regard to
the resolution of March 27 as to the
American citizens in British prisons.
The report cites British parliament
ary action in the premises in March ,
LS81 , and gives Blaino's ( then sccro-
ary ) instructions to Lowell , in which
10 said : "If American citizens , while
within British jurisdiction , offended
against British laws , this government
vill not seek to shield them from the
egal consequcnco of their act , but
must insist upon the application to
; hbir cases of those common piinci-
tics of criminal jurisprudence which
n the United States secures to every
o every eno who offends against
ho laws , whether an Amori-
an citizen' or a foreign
ubject , that the accused person shall
mmodiatoly upon arrest for a specific
crime or oflonso upon which ho is hold ,
> o offered an opportunity for speedy
rial bcjoro an impartial court- and
ury. Those are essential to every
iriminal prosecution , and necessity
like to the protection of innocence
and to ascertain guilt. "
The report further says that Michael
Boynton was found not to have boon
n American citizen and doubt is ex-
jresaed as to Henry Mahonoy's nntu-
alization. Lowell has boon ropoat-
dly instructed to urge the speedy
rial of all persons , and expresses the
joliof that the results will bo satisfac-
ory in all cases.

Frank Carruth being the auccssful
candidate for mayor. The demo

: hat the "untorrifiof1" had been
iromisod the mayor and an a ropubli-

lumber of other democrats , withdrew

lie order of the day , they must follow
uit , and by abrowd manipulations by
ho chairman Carruth was indorsed.
Jeinc ; thus equipped , yo good citi-
! on "could pay his money and take

lounced la t nichfc ; , that Mr. Wcch-

at Mr. Dutton , candidate for council

Arriving at this point a few daya
ngo from Colorado , I drop nfow notes
jy * ho way.
J5oth York and New York nro jubi-
ant ever the results of the election.
[ have waited until the votes were
Bountod to-nigS * . Itoth towns have
gone temperance by strong majorities.
The record of York on the temper
ance question is well known. It has
joon from the first almost as a unit.
New York , on the other side of the
railroad truck , was organi/.od and run
ndopondont , and on purpeso proba
bly , to show the people of York and
the rest of the world that saloons wore
of prime importance , and that no
community could thrive without them.
For a few ycara they gave the subject
n faithful test. They had the decided
advantage of position. They might
liavo soi/ed the favorable moment and
secured tho' seminary and won the
day. JJut they began with a saloon
first , and the very ground scorned
poisoned by their influence. No monet
ot wealth came in , and , though they
had the depot and four fine elevators ,
and by far the finest location , they
saw the old town go nhoad of almost
any young city in _ the state , while
they stood still.
To-day they have swept the whole
thing clean and have elected a tem
perance board by a fine majority ,
while old York has made the moat
swooping record yet , electing her now
temperance mayor , Stevens , by ever
175 majority , .Both towns fool jubilant -
lant and will soon have a monster rat
ification moot'ng. The whole tem
perance question has .been ably hun
died by the leading citizens , and it it
recognized that at least CO per cent ,
has bcon added to their wealth by
their fidelity to this cause. It hna
been sqimroly tested that temperance
is by far the snfost : and further , that
there is money in it.
I find , after a few months' absence ,
that this city is also on the boom. The
line opera house is Hearing completion
.and puonlo are oouring in to secure
the advantages of the seminary. It
seems good to got baok to this land of
plenty after a residence for months in
thu great Sihnrn. A fine rain has
succeeded a terrible dust bll.n\rdand
the prospects for crops are fino.
Meantime , corn is on the rise , Atchison -
son for the present being hondquar-
tors and market for it. It is shipped
tliPtios south and to the mountains.
Tie | people of central Nebraska may
rojolcti it the prospect of the specdv
completion o. ' UioC. . H. A Q. branch
to Denver. Colorad" . with her rap
idly increasing populntfoil nnd inl
memo mineral resources , must depend
on those rich prnincs for her numJ'iea. '
Aside h-om her fine whcal , ColoratuJ
is a failure in grazing and agriculture.
Ono are ofYoik county land isworth
a thousand acres near Puoblo. But
Colorado has coal and iron , and im
mense mineral resources , and Nebras
ka is equally ricli in her treasures of
the rioilt Both are dependent onoach
other , nnd the new railroad will unite
them.

ho organized thirteen churches and
erected three houses of worship. Ho
performed long journeys on foot , often
walking thirty and forty milwi in n
day , and has walked twenty miles on
the Sabbath and preached three ser
mons. Hia funeral was preached on
the od , and though his noighborsknow
nothing of hia powers when in his
prime , yet , out of love to the man as
they know him in his ripe old ago ,
they loft their fields and followed in a
long procession to the grave.

ban had been anticipated , owing to
ho lotnowhat heated state of fcoling
irovailing. A pouring rain carao
lown all day long , making navigation
about the polls exceedingly unpleas
ant , and interfering somewhat with
ho ordinary good nature of the work ,
t was owing to this attempt of Juni
or Pluvius to iutimidato the voters
hat the total vote was so light as it
vas , but 1U ! ( votes being polled
where ! 2COO were expected. It was
B hard fought a contest as has bcon
eon hero for many years. Wonger

y , and camp within six votes of Jcar-
ying the First , but Doolittlo'a largo
lojority in the Second Ward saved
lim and secured his election by a ma-
ority of 165. Montgomery pressed
] ebb for police judge pretty hard , the
alter being elected by only 74 ma-
ority. Grimes and Cooper , the rcgu-
ar republican nominees for the city
ouncil in the First and Third wards
espectivoly , were defeated by the

orilyin the First being ( T , andBaum's

ult need not bo deplored. A general
isposition had boon evinced by the

ots on the school question ,
) iit the weather was so unfavorable
