The report de clares the contestant , Garrison , entitled o n sent. Mayo , the sitting member , vas hoard in his own behalf.

The house .hen wont into committee .of the whole on the bonded whisky bill. The militnry ncadomy appropriation jill was passed. Objection was made to the roforoncoof .ho aonnto bill for the eradication of tlio 'opt nnd inr.uth disonso to the sonnto com- uitteo , withjenvo to report nt any tiino ; so the bill will have to tnko the usual course. The houao wont into eommittoo of the whole ( Mr. Dorahoinior in the chair ) on .ho bonded whisky extension bill. Mr. Willis ( rop. , Ky. ) explained , its 'oaturcfl , declaring that n failure to pass the bill meant bankruptcy and ruin , not inly to many of the most important nod nlluential firms in Kentucky and the went , but to manufacturer ! ! and innocent uildors of whisky nnd many loading west ern banks. The diatillora were the only victims of special legislation in the land. Alcohol was the only taxable article un der the law thnt waa compelled to pay tax before it reached the consumer. In the last thirty daya there hat boon n shrinkage of 5 cunts per gallon in the price of whisky. There had DCOII n shrinkage in the price of grain nut fltocka in the last few yoara amounting t < billions. There had boon n shrinkage ol ? ( > 0.000,000 in the value of wnrohousoi ] whisky. Knijland waa supplying horaoll with grain from India , and would bo independent of thu United States within three years \Vhnt would b como of the hundrodti of millions of bushels of grain raised hero which wna now consumed in England. If this bill failed if th so distilleries closed and demand n shul down , the time would como again when the farmers will burn corn for fuel. Mr. Blount ( dom. , Ga. ) enid the house was asked to extend the time for the payment of the tax oil 70,000,000 gallons lens of whisky , amounting to $ ( ! GCUO- J50. The existing depression waa the tesult , of over-production. ] | o sympa thized with the distillora , but opposed Lho bill ns n principle of public policy. It was n proposition to lend the distillora the num named. Ho did not bpliovo this measure would remedy the evil ; on the contrary , it would only aggravate it. The time was not far distent when ho country vould bo in a condition o repeal the internal revenue tnxca nnd upposo it should bo done in 1887. By hat time the tnxca on bonded whisky vould , if the bill wns passed , nmount to Si00.000COO ! nnd congress would bo nskod to grant n rebate of these tnxca. Mr. Rocs , ( dom. , Gi. . , ) regarded the till as the worst species of bad leglsln- ion ho had over known presented to congress. The owners of whisky were 10 more entitled to relief than nny ether clnss of speculators , Mr. COT , ( dom. , N. Y. ) delivered nn olnbornto speech on the general subject of the tariff nnd revenue laws. Ho sup ported the Morrison bill , nnd admitted : here was some division in the party on the question , but trusted they would bo reconciled. Mr. llroadhead , ( dom. , Mo. ) favored the bill. Ho wns not in favor of further contracting the currency by taking the revenue from whisky. Pending action , the committee rose. To-morrow is private bill day , nnd the consideration of this bill cannot ho con tinued except by n two-third vote. Ad journed , OVKH IN IOWA.
