Ojr , Fob.iS.-1-AmonB ! the hills re
ported from committees and placed on the
calendar wcro ttio following !
Providing for the Investment of certain
funds in the treasury , with amendment ?
Btrlklng out the provision to allow national
hanks to Issue circulation to the amount of
their bonds deposited.
Among the hills Introduced und referred to
committees wcro the following :
By Sherman Authorizing the IRSUO of cir
culating notes to national banlts to the pur
Value of bonds deposited therefor.
Mr. Paddock addressed the senate on the
subject of IneOlclcnt postal service In the
western states. He denounced the manage
ment of the postofllco department for the lost
three years us a failure probably a moro
conspicuous failure tlian any of the other
shortcomings nf the present administration.
The senate Joint resolution In relation to
the claim of John II. Head against the United
States for alleged use of projectiles for rilled
ordnance wus taken from the calendar and
passed.
The Bcnato bill for the purchase of a site
and the erection of a KOVcrumcnt'btilUliiiK
( the cost not to exceed f 1,200,000) ) was taken
from the calendar and passed.
A bill passed to authoriro the Omaha ,
Hayes Uity ft Southwestern railway com
pany and the Chicago , Kansas & Western
railroad to build their roads across thu
Tort Hayes military reservation.
The senate then resumed consideration of
i the bill granting pensions to ex-soldiers and
Bailers who are incapacitated from the pcr-
formancu of manual labor , und providing for
pensions to dc | > cndrnt relatives of deceased
uoldiers , the question being on the adoption
of Call's ' amendment , making the bill apply
itlso to those who served in the war with
Mexico , or for thirty days in any of the In
dian wars. Thu amendment wus agreed to.
Mr. Cullom said it seemed to him the
farther the country got away from the late
war the less was being done for ex-soldiers.
He thought thu senate had butter hesitate be
fore paHslng provisions for Indian and other
wars , and should provide exclusively for ex-
soldlers of the war of the rebellion.
Mr. Mundc/son appealed to the senate to
puss the bill us it had been formulated by
the pension committee of the G. A. It. Ho
hoped the senate would retrace its steps , and
not agree to the amendment adopted In com
mittee of the whole.
Mr. Davis , who has charge of the bill , co
incided with Mumlcrson.
Mr. Plumb intimated there was something
of a "juggle" concealed In the bill and us-
Kcrtcd his opinion that the G. A. It. did not
want this bill.
Mr. Mandcrson contradicted the statement ,
but Mr. Plumb reiterated his belief. Ho
called on democratic members to express
their views on the bill.
Mr. Faulkner said lie had given the bill his
HUpport in committee , but if the amendments
were retained now ho would vote against it.
If the bill passed with Plumb's amendment
Rtriking out the word "totally" before the
word "Incapacitated , " the annual pension
list would exceed ? 150XXUOO. ( ) If the bill
was defeated the responsibility would not
rest on the democratic side of the chamber.
It would rest on those senators who put the
amendments into the bill with the certain
knowledge of its being vetoed : who had done
it with their eyes open , and with thoinudor-
Htanding that not only consistency but a
conscious sentiment of duty oven though an
election was coming on this year would
require the same to be done now as lust ses
sion with a like bill.
Mr. Plumb asked Mr. Faulkner If ho
believed the president would veto the bill.
The presiding ofllcer ( Iigulls ) ) here inter
fered and said it hail always been held to bo
u breach of order to refer in debute to the
action of the executive.
Mr. I'lumo said he understood from the
remarks of Mr. Faulkner that there had
been an effort to get a bill which the presi
dent would sign , otherwise it would never
liavo got n vote on the other side of thu
chamber , and to that complexion had it como
ut last. .Tno republican side of thu chamber
liud been told that it was to take the respons
ibility of legislation that might not meet the
views of the president. If that was not a com
plete subordination of legislative to execu
tive authority hu did not KCO how it could bo
made any more so. If thu senate was will
ing to put Itself in that attitudu ho had no
objection , but ho proposed to discuss the
question on its merits , not considering what
the president might think about it. The pres
ident was in regard to the bill in Its present
stage , a private citl/eu. No more , no less.
Considerable discussion of this point en
sued between Blackburn , Plumb and Faulk
ner. The latter llnally disclaimed all per
sonal knowledge of the views of the execu
tive.
tive.Mr.
Mr. Plumb had not supposed the senator
from West Virginia had talked to the presi
dent about It , but It was plain to bo seen an
effort was being made to get a bill which the
.president would sign and that was to hu the
limit of what the senate was to do. Ex-sol-
dlers who would bo relieved by thu bill were
appealing to congress to leglslutu in view of
thu facts und not in relation to the campaign
of next autumn.
Mr. Teller protested against the senate of
the United States being threatened with an
executive veto. It seemed to him a great degra
dation for u senator to stand up and say ho
proposed to bo governed in his vote by what
thu executive thought.
Mr. Heck referred to Mandcrson's re
marks on the grand army petition , as to
what their lodges and posts beneficiaries
under the bill had determined the senate
should do , and how far that was legitimate.
Manderson suggested that perhaps the- time
tiad been reached when thp grand army
dould apologize , not only for exercising the
tight of petition , but for helping to maintain
n legislative body to which It could not
appeal for redress of Its wrongs.
Mr. Heck denied having suggested that the
G. A. It. should not exercise the right of
petition , und said nobody had suggested that
thu president had not the right to veto ob
noxious measures. The senator from Nebraska
braska had told the Semite that the action nf
the committee on pensions in reporting the
bill hud grown out of the action of the G. A.
It. , which was itself to bo the bonelioiury.
Mandorson's ho said degrading
niiecch , , wus moro
grading to the sciiutu than any allusion to the
president's action on the bill could bo.
Mr. Mandcrhon claimed thu right not only
in his capacity us senator , but us a private
citizen , to criticize the acts of the president.
Ho had not discussed thu probable action of
thu president except to suggest a ilesiro to
have u btllYusscd that would probably become -
como u law. .
Mr. Black tut a deprecated the violation of
thu rules In continuing to talk on the pro-
.sumed action of thivoxceutlvu ou the pcndlug
ineusuro. Ho did not know what authority
they hud for their statements , but ho did
Icnow there was butono political organization
in the country to-day which was in perfect
inarching order with all things reudv. It was
the Grand Army of thu Hepublle. The sena
tor from Nebraska , who so ably championed
the bill , hud told the henatu ar.il country the
bill wus u deinnnd mudu by the G..A. li. , and
Juul protested against any material amend
ment because that organization had formu
lated not a petition to the American congress
but n demand on the American congress fet
legislation in which Itself was to be
thu bcncllclary. If the senator from
Nebraska was tobe accepted as
nuthorlty the bill was a demand sent to con
gress by the great , well orgunUcd und per-
Icctly systemutlzoii political agency that pro
posed to remove the trouble which environed
both houses , do away with rovuiiuu bills uiul
tnrllTrovisions , and abolitions of Internal
taxation und , to dispose of the treasury sur
j'lus by such bills us this , and that was to IK
the only practical solution to bo offered the
republican party for the financial dtfllcultiea
in which the country was Involved.
After further discussion the bill went
over without action and tjio senate adjourned ,

Mr. Anderson , of Iowa , offered as a ques
tion of privilege a resolution reciting that on
January 18 thu house ordered the printing of

whole on public buildings measures. The
bill approbating $ T > 00,000 for a site for a
public building at Omaha , Neb. , was agreed
to with an amendment reducing the appro
priation to WOO.OOO. When the bill for the
erection of an appraiser's building In the city
of Now York wus called up , Mr. Kerr of
Iowa spoke in opposition to spending the sur
plus In the erection of public buildings until
some line of policy in regard to taxation was
determined upon.
After n speech by Mr. Cox of New York
the bill wus agreed to unanimously. The
site and building will cost * t.r > 0 ( > ,000.
In speaking to another measure Mr. Ken
nedy of Ohio arraigned the democratic party
in the house for failure to redeem pledges it
had made to the people. Every democrat
committee sat like nightmares on bills pre
sented to the house. Every pension bill had
been burled. *
Ho would take part of the surplus and give It
to soldiers. Ho believed building measures
iroper , because it scattered the money where
, t did good. The people wcro sitting in
.udgmcnt to-day , and that the judgment
when recorded in November would condemn
the democratic party.
The bill was also agreed to appropriating

The committee having risen , the house rat-
fled its action.

A. Brilllantt Performance at lioytl's
> Last XI ulit.
An unusually intelligent audience comfort
ably filled Hoyd's ' opera bouse last evening
to witness Januusliok's marvelous imperson
ation of "Mary Stuart. " Since the eminent
star's first Introduction to American audi-
cncos she has boon the recognized exponent
of the heavier emotional roles , and each suc
cessive season that she has appeared in this
cou ntry the individuality and strength of her
Impersonations nave received increased at
tention , and the tragic grandeur of the char
acters Blio portrays stands out as modern
masterpieces of her art.
What Cushman was to the stage of her
time , Janauslick is to-day , and hi > r portrayal
of the last sad days of Scotland's unhappy
queen is conspicuous as one of her greatest
roles. Her accent is no less pronounced than
it has boon In the past years that she
has been identified with the American
stage , but in her work and the
exquisite detail ofher acting all
opportunity to criticize her enunciation is
obscured in admiration of the woman who
can so closely hold the mirror up to nature.
Her character grow with familiarity , and
as long as Janausuhek plays so long will in
telligent audiences listen and admire.
Her work Is consistent and * ho has sur
rounded herself with a company of unusual
strength. The assignment of parts has been
judicious nud the entire cast works harmoni
ously and together to bring out the entire
force of the scenes of her pieces.
The Elizabeth of Miss Leigh is especially
strong , and in her scenes with Mary Stewart
her acting is a competent foil to the star's
own work. The Lord Leicester of G , D.
Chaplain was not marked by any particular
htrciiKth , but was oven and altogether ac
ceptable. The disposition of the rest of tlio
characters was good in every respect , the
dressing was good and the stage was well
set.
If wo would have powerful minds , wo
must think ; if powerful muscles , wo

must take Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.
