A FALSE RECORD.
1 The Evening Star says : Does The
Congressional Record , record ? If not
what la the uaa of printing it under
the pretence of it being an official
transcript of the proceedings of con-
greaa ? There la not a word in to-day's
laane of that publication to show that
\hero occurred in the house last night ,
a scene which no one can fail to pro
nounce disgraceful in the extreme.
Such waa the unpleasant truth , yet to
read official proceeding aa printed In
The Record , one wonld aup-
poae all the members had be
haved with the utmost dignity
and decorum. Its reporta of the senate -
ate proceedings are no better. A few
days ag6 two members of that body
exchanged opinions the reverse of
complimentary , but their remarks ,
although uttered in a loud , threaten
ing tone , failed , apparently , to reach
the ears of the official reporters , as
their report failed to ahuw the slight
est Bljm of what occurred. If it were
not for the dally papers the country
wonld get but an imperfect , indeed a
false idea of what actually occura In
congress.

SENATE PROCEEDINGS
WASHINGTON , D. 0. March 2. Sen
ator VnnWyck presented the creden
tials of Charles F. Mandoraon , elected
senator from Nebraska , and the presi
dent presented the ctcdpnh'aln of hla
anccsiaor from Illinois , W. W. Cullcm.
lljad and filed.
The river and harbor bill was re
ferred to the committee on commerce.
The act to exclude public lands In
Alabama from operation of laws relat
ing to mineral landa was taken up.
Senator Morgan explained the bill.
Senators Allison , 'Elalo and Pock
were appointed conEores on the sundry
civil bill.
Senator Ligan submitted rt conference -
once report on the army appropriation
bill. Agreed to.
( The Item limiting compensation to
bo paid subsidized railroads for army
transportation was stricken from the
bill. )
speaking "of pending business
Senator Van Wyck critlolaed the large
oomponoatlon allowed the special at
torney engaged In the star route cases
and the department justice in allow
ing auoh a large amount. Ho had
hoped the stories told at the street
corners aa to the extravagance of the
department were not true. Taking
up the vouchers of George Bliss , he
ridiculed the charges made therein ,
quoting such articles as "fifty cents
for sleeping car porter , " and "five
cents for stamps. " Tha vouchers
ahowod ho was allowed $160 a day and
expenses , Morrick , another lawyer ,
received even largerper | diem , bnt
as he lived in Washington the
vouchers did not show ho
charged for board. It was perfectly
plain now why these suits continued
aa long aa they did. It was an Induce
ment to these men to continue the
suit six months and a temptation to
ang the jury , if it was true they did.
He did not say they did. That the
courts for administration of justice in
the District of Columbia should be
occupied for six months in a common
case waa an outrage which ought hot
to be tolerated. No greater disgrace
had been connected with jurisprudence
In any country than that which haa
bfeoa exhibited In the treatment of
oaacB In the District"of Columbia.
Ho desired that the people should
bo protected from such outrages.
It had always been charged In the
past that the republican party punished
its own thieves. Orily lately he had
discovered why Howgate had the
prison doora opened to him. It
seemed Howgate was a democrat , and
M the republican party was only un
der obligation to punish republican
thtovea , of course Howgato got off.
Without any doubt these performances
were equally infamous aa the star
route robborios. There waa equally
a conspiracy here to rob the govern
ment in a suit which ought to be
treated as an ordinary suit. Good
lawyers were gathered together by the
department of justice , allowed to place
their hands in the treasury to any
depth they choose and to any extent
and for any time they choose. There
wau nothing to limit them in price or
turn their countenance. He knew of
another case where a member of con
gress was employed by the district
attorney , M. J. Townsondy aa special
attorney , when the department of
justice knew that he shou.d be attend
ing to hla duties at Wasllngton , and
for these special services' he received
$0,000. Where waa the protection of
the people when tbo he/il / of the de
partment of justice nob' only tolerated
by inauguration such iroceedlnga
Senator Cameron ( loon } Do you
mean to say ho gob a dollar of it ?
Van Wyok Oh ! n/ / ,
Senator Oameronf-Thon you be
careful how you talk ) Be more care
] ful how yon talk ; you must atop now ,
atop hero. /
Senator Van Wy I am glad mr
friend cornea to thl rescue I tried
to do It , bnt the foils were against it.
"You are" begin Cameron , throat-
onlngly , but stopffid.
"I have not safl the attorney gene
ral took any of tha money , " contin
ued Van Wyck. /
"You talk toomuch ; don't talk any
more in that war , " replied Cameron.
Senator Van/Week / I don't pretend
tend that the attorney general took
any of this moioy , bnt when ho put 11
hla algn-mannaf of "Browator" to the
voucher ; when ho allowed $10 a day
for hotel expenses ; when ho at
one time allowed twenty-five cents for
a telegram and at another time 5 cento ;
when he allowed 21 cents for a mes
senger ; whori'ho ' allows Bliss not only
traveling oxjiunsen but n sleeping car
and 50 centl for a porter , 1 aay ho
does a thlna which any man In hla
sense knowa not to be right I don't
pretend ho obtained any of thh money
himself , bnt this mode of extracting
money from the treasury la no better
than the star route method. None
whatever.
Senator Logan said this proceedings
of the senator from Nebraska was ao
remarkable , so unprecedented , ho [
would ask the senator whether here
papers which ho WM referring to were
original papers from the attorney gen
eral's office.
Senator Van Wyck laid they wore
copies which had boon called by the
resolutions , *
"Did the papers cnmo into the pos1
session of the senator ? " naked Login.
"Into the posseaslon of the senate , "
replied Van Wyck ,
Senator Logan Dooa the senator
intend to refer them to a committee ?
Senator Van WyckI intend to do
BO.
Senator Logan But the 'senator
takes the opportunity of maklnga gen
eral attack on the attorney general's
department without reference to anv
report or anything whatever , except
to gat this haraoguo before the coun
try.
Continuing , Senator Logan said the
course of the senator from Nobraski.
rrns so disgraceful and so wide a dc-
purtnco from tholusunl muthod of pro
ceeding that , without desiring to ou
ter the merits of the case , ho felt jus
tified in saying that if auoh a speech
was made by any man out of doom
whllo a trial of these men charged
with robbing the government waa go-
lug on , the country would understand
the speaker waa an attorney for the
defendants.
Senator Van Wyck said ho had hit
IIC his duty to ascertain whether the
charges made against the department
of justice wore true , and when tbo
treasury department had sent vouch
ers bearing the attorney-general's own
sign manual ( Browater ) , showing that
$150 a day waa paid one of theeo at
torneys , there was no need to wait
for ( a report from any committee. IIo
felt it to bo his duty to nuke this
"harrangao" and get the facto before
the pooplo. The senator from Illinois
tlh
hud said that if a man "out doors"
made such a speech ho would bo re
garded as an attorney for the defend
ants. "Is It possible , " said Van
Wych , ' 'that that ia the way
the gentleman , or the attorney-
general wonld sock to make these
charges. It what I have read is true ,
and : It is true , snrHy it demandb other
answer : than that. I do not vrant to
BOO the treasury plundered , aa plun
dered It Is , by conspiratorr , star
routers or in any other way. In no
country where justice IB decently ad
ministered would it bo possible to
have an ordinary criminal prosecuted
aa this star ronto trial has been , not
once but twlco. The treasury haa
boon robbed. What hao boon saved
through the efforts of a former post
master general IB now being spent by
common lawyers getting $150 per day.
Cln want this extravogance stopped. I
mo\o these piporo be prlutel and re
ferred to the judiciary committee *
ftBI The motion was agreed to and the
senate then took a recess until 8:15. :
BIa' When the senate reassembled Sen
ator ' Allison presented a conference
report on the legislative , executive
and : judicial appropriation bill. Agreed
to.
to.Tho
The conference report on the naval
appropriation bill waa agreed to.
Senator Merrill presented and ex
plained the conference report on the
i iternal revenue and tariff bill. Ho
said the entire reduction resulting
from the pMisgo of the bill is esti
mated at $75,000,000.
'Senator Beck mada a fiery speech
In opposition to the adoption of the
report. Ho said , ia part : This report
appasrs to be simply increasing the
* Ty-arilil committee
duty upon * * - -
attempted to touch of rates in the bill
passed in the senate. I know frum
the beginning that we wonld got a
worse bill than either house or senate
deuired. I knew the bill wonld go by
he ok or ctook ( and it has gone by
both ) to a conference committee , who
wonld pick ont just what they pleased ,
in defiance of the will of both houses ,
and wake a tariff to suit thomnolvoa ,
and force it on the American pooplo.
Mr. Halo reported the deficiency
bill. Ordered printed.
Senator Bock continued : The sena
tor from Ohio went into this so-called
conference committee and restored
every provision upon which the senate
voted him down. The senator's was
the bralna of that committee in regard
to capacity , audacity and intellect.
He waa the driving wheel of the con
ference. It required an andaclty whlnh
few men had , to come back and
insert into the conference re
port every defeated amendment. The
change in the sugar schedule gave the
sugar refiner an absolute monopoly
and waa the worst outrage In the bill ,
If the snnate adopted the report there
wonld be such a lobby brought to
boar on the houao by the woolen , iron
and sugar men as Wonld force it
through there.
Senator Bayard characterized the
report as the niont lame and impotent
coccluaion of a winter spent in framing
a tariff law.
The conference report waa adopted ,
ayea 32 , noea 31 , Adjourned.

the Southern PacjGoand other railsoad
companies to unlto and consolidate so
aa to form a continuous line of rail
road from "tho tidal waters of the
Pacific ocean to the Gulf of Mexico. "
Mr. Buttorworth explained the bill
simply authorized the consolidation of
nine roada to form a continuous line
from the Pacific to the Gulf , In order
to meet every pbjectlon to the bill It
had been amended In many parti
culars No authority was given the
consolidated road to operate branches ,
or apurs , and a provision had
boon Inserted prohibiting consolidation
of any parallel or competing lino.
There was alao a provision Inserted
that nothing in the act should bo construed -
strued to relieve any of the companies
from consequences of any failure to
perform any act required by any law ,
or by any provision in their charters ;
nor should anything therein bo con
strued to revive or confirm any land
grants to any railroad company > ,
I whether mada by the United States
or by any state. The bill also pro
1 tected 1 states and their citizens in con
1 troversies which arose with any of the
consolidated companies , nor did the
not deprive the courts of any state of
jurisdiction over controversies be
tween the companies and the citizens
of such stato. nor extend the jurisdic
tion of the United States courts over
these controversies. After dliouislon ,
and without action , the matter wont

The Work Proposed by the Lutheran
Churcn.
The oflicors of the Lutheran church
in this city will shortly begin the work
of assist lug in raising a fund for the
erection of a statue to the great re
former , in the National Capital. The
work will be by subscription and other-
wlio , the money to bu forwarded to
Augustus Kountzo and othera as it \
may be raised.
Dr. P. 8. Leisonricg has received a
letter from Rev , J. G. Butler , pat tor
of the Memorial Church at Washing
ton City , stating that the churches in
the east are proceeding actively in the
matter , parlor societies being the
favorite way of doing the work. It ia
probable that this state will bo organ
ized soon and do its full share toward
.ho praiseworthy object. The circular
sent out says :
The friends of the great reformer
are appealed to that a statue of Mar
tin Luther may bo placed among the
marbloa and bronzes of the national
capital. While Enropo has many
atatuoa of the reformer , this will bo
the first In the United States , and a
fitting memorial of the 400th birth-
year of Luther , ho having boon born
November 10 , 1483.
It Is proposed to place the statue in
the largo triangular space in front of
the Memorial Lutheran church , which
is the property of the church. No
more , conspicuous place than this can '
bo fonnd , and the church itself is a 't
memorial of the freedom for which wo
are largely indebted to the world's
yroat emancipator.
The undersigned , after considerable
correspondence and conference , rec
ommend the duplicating of the cen
tral figure of the world renowned
. Worms group. In It Luther appears
in colossal broLz > , about 11& feet in
height , and ntandlng upon a "pedestal
of about cijua libtght. Ho ia clad in
the minUU'rihl roboa of hia tilno , boar-
log upon his arm a copy of Gcd's
Word , upon which his closed right
hand resto , whilst with upturned ,
earneat face ho appeals to God for the
triumph of the Gospel.
Thia commanding figure will coat in
Enro { . o $4,500 , to which must be
added about $2,600 for transportation ,
granltu pedestal and Incidentals.
To the different schools of Luther's
followers in the United States the
erection of thia atatno In the nation's
capital will prove a bond of union ,
whilst not only a great multitude of
the great reforraor'a countrgmon ,
among our most Industrious and thrifty
chizona , but the whole protestunt
communion , and all lovers of freedom
must heartily commend the project.
In unchaining the bible , .Luther lib
erated thought and gave freedom to
the world. The erection in our na
tional capitol of thia colossal bronzs of
the heroic defender of the faith Is
timely.
