obstruction would disgust parliament mid
discredit the Gladstone-l'ainell paity in the

try by such tactics would icsiiit In an ovei-
whelming unionist majoiity. Whether thai
majoilty would bo a conservative or unionist
or liberal , depends upon the degree of
atiength that those parties show in icslstlnu'

tend largely upon the spirit shown by tlie

for instance be piepaicd to sunender the

of the case , and that they have at no time
read our speeches or studied our points of

reated with cxtiaoulinary long biiffi ing ,
vhllc attacking England and English statcs-
iieu with the llcrcst and most outrageous in-

of organized conspliacy and rebellion ascx-

lave been tolerated so long by any other civ-
ll/ed government , and certainly not by the
United States.

of such a division as effecting the empire as a

In concluding the Interview Mr. Goscfoon

Mr , Goschcn did not wish to discuss at pres
ent the unionist policy toward either the
( iladstonlan or lory party , as ho thought it
would be some days before the political situa

foresee thocomso of events.

The ie-oluton ! , Mr. Hewitt said , ptovlded
; hat whenever the surplus exceeded $100,000-

sult would bo that if theio was 5101,000.000 ,
suiplus the call muslbo made , and thus the

the gentleman from Illinois did not intend
that , lie had bolter modify the language of
the icsolutlon so as to piovidu that when the
surplus i cached " 110,000,000 there should bo a
call. The genlleniaii Irom Illinois based his
advocacy of the iPsolution on the saving of

amount which Mould have to be paid
out , tlie saving in interest would amount to

Mr. Weaver of Jowasahl the only trouble

Some gentleman on the other side in eontl-
deuce with the administration ought to ex
plain why the secretary did not exorcise ilio
discietlon given him by the law. Ho ( .McKIll-
ley ) believed It to be a wise discietion to per
mit the oulccr havlngeliarno of HIP adminis
tration of the flseal atlairs of the government
to call bonds or withhold the call of bonds
when the. condition of the public ticasury
permitted or demanded ono or the other.
Thcrefoie , unless Hie amendments oflprcd

cast a nezativc vote upon the icsolutlon , Of
course , the icpublicans could not prevent
the demociatlc p.uty trom voting to-day
want of confidence In Its own administra
tion. They could not prevent II fiom voting
a vote of condemnation upon tlio president

tion meant. Think of It ! The ippublican
secrpl.uy of the treasury presided over the
liscal allalrs ot the government fiom 1ST ! ) to

contiolled the hou-e for lour years. The IP-
publican secretary of tlm treasniv exercised

never thought of taking that discretion avvay
from him.
Mr. Morrison The gentleman Is mis
taken.
Mr. Mclvinley Did you ever pass a resolu

Mr. McKlnley But > ou never passed it.
You had control ot the house. \ on had con

you have now. Whatever you may liavo
done In convention , or attempted to do on

you never did adopt a i ( 'solution lakinii that

Mr. Morrison I was prevented by the co
operation of the democrats with that side of

Mr. McKlnley That is , the two wings of
tlie democratic paity weie n'ot in harmony
at that time [ ranjjhterl , and ono wing , with

Mr. Keod of Maine saw In the lesofutlon a
meie political game.
Mr. Hendcison of Iowa favoied the icsolu-
lion because it enforced tliPiepublicaii pippo-
sitlon that tlie democratic party had deter
mined that pension bills shqjild not bo uassed.
He waln Invor of paying out tlie surplnson
the public debt.
Mr. Morrison closed the debate In support
of the joint le-olutioii. IJe denied that the
resolution was a condemnation ot tlie admin
istration. It lelt Iho question of rescivcn In
the statutes that which it was to-day. If it
was law now that S100,000,00u was to be le-
servcd , it would bo law alter tlie passage of
the resolution. The gentleman Horn New
Yoik predicted that HIP counlry was going lethe
the bad if fe7,000OCO should bo paid
out of the ticasury. In issi the surplus w.is
reduced to &l,0)0Ka ( ) ( ) and no harm had come
to the countiy. .Nobody had lost faith in tlio
government or in the treasury to keep its
pledge * . Was the gentleman taluing lor the
democratic party to tell him that -70,000OM
more was ivquiicd in the treasuiy because
this was a democratic administration ? If ( he
people had confidence in the Covernmcnt in
iS'iJ , vvlion tlicio was a republican admlnlstia-
tion , and the surplus had gone down to S100-
OOO.OJO , in God's name should thov not.have
faith in it to-day when it had at its head tills
good man , Cleveland , about whom so many
Ulco things wcio .said , and whom nobody
thought iV'C ol tlian he ? [ Laughter and
applause. ' )
The genetal debate then closed and the live
minute debito began and ran on without in
terest foi half an hour. The amendment
offered by Mr. Mouibon this moinlng was
adopted without division. Tlio amendment
otfuied by Mr. MoKlnloy yesterday was in
