HKXATE.
Washington January 23. Mr. Vest pre
sented the credentials of W. A. Clark and
Martin Muginnis as senators eluot from the
state of Montana. They were read and re-
ferred on Mr. Vest's motion to the com
mittee on privileges and elections. On his
motion also the four gentlemen claiming
to be senators elected were admitted dur
ing the contest to the lloor.
A number of bills were reported trom the
committee aim placed on tlie calendar.
alter which a bill appropriating $.r)UU(;C)
tor work at tlie moutir ot trio Uoluiniiia
river was passed.
As2 o'clock approac hed the scats in th
galleries rapidly tilled up and when Mr
ingalls rose to address the senate in oppO'
sition to Senator liutler's bill to encouruge
the emigration ot tlie colored people trom
the I'ni'.ed Slates the chamber was
crowded to the utmost.
Among the bills reported from commit
tees anil placed on tlie calendar was the
following:
To amend tlie act ol July lw to au
thorize the building of a railrcad bridge at
Fort K 1 1 i i 1 1 1 Ark.
Authorizing the construction of railroad
bridge ucross the Itrazos river in Texas bv
the Kra.os Terminal Railroad company.
At 2 o'clock the senate took up the bill
introduced by Mr. Jlutlur to provide for
the emigration of persons of color from the
Southern states and Mr. Ingalls addressed
tlie senate lie sum:
"Mr. 1'resiuent The raco to which we
belong is the most arrogant and avaricious
the most exclusive and indomitable in his
tory. It is a conquering and unconqucr
able race through which ulone man has
taken possession of the physical and moral
world. To our race humanity is indebted
for religion for literature for civilization.
It bus a genius for conquest for politics

its contributions to the stale
All other races have been its enemies and
its victims. This is not the time or the
season to consider piofoundly the inter-
esting question of the unity of races. It is
sutllcieut to Buy that either by instinct or
design the Caucasian at every step ot its
progress from barbarism to enlightenment
has retused to mingle its blood or to assim
ilute with the two other great human fam
ilies I lie Mongolian ana Alncan and
and bus persistently rejected
adulteration. Under the shield
of the ' American government
every fuilh had found its shelter every
creed a sanctuary and every wronga redress.
It had resisted the rancor of party spirit
the violence of faction the perils of foreign
immigration the collisions of civil war the
Jealous menace of foreign ami hostile
nations."
He quoted from Mr. John liright's sneecli
(during the civil war) in which Mr. JJright
said: "1 see anotner unit brighter vison
bei'ore my gaze. It may be a vision but 1
cherish it. 1 sco one vast confederation
stretching Irom the frozen North to the
flowing South and from the wild billows
of the Atlantic to the calm watersof the Pa-
cific main; I seeone people one language
one law and one faith all over that wide
continent the home of freedom and refuge
lor tlie onpressea oi every race and everv
climate."
Mr. Ingalls proceeded : "On the thresh
old of our second century wo aro con-
Ironted witu too most tonniduhlo and por-
tentous problem eer submitted to a free
peoulo for solution complex unprece
dented involving social moral and polit
ical considerations party supremacy and
in tue estimation ot many uiougii not in
my own the existence of our system of
government. Its solution will' demand
all the resources and statesmanship of the
present und future to prevent a crisis that
may become a catastrophe. It should be
approached with candor with solemnity
with patriotic purpose with fearless scruti-
ny without reserve. Let me state it us the
language of one of the most brilliant most
impassioned and most powerful of all the
oralors of the (South now unfortunately

southern firmament."
Mr. Inu'iills thereupon sent to the clerk's
desk and had read an extract from Mr.
Wrudv'h oration before the liostou chamber
of commerce and then went on to sav

This solution of the problem is Impossible.

After praising the colored people for their
fidelity to the Souih during the war he
said:

not have defended and shielded them from

throughout the war has made them faith-
ful to their deliverers. Their allegiance
to the party of Lincoln and Grant is per-
sistent ana unswerving. Their instincts
were more infallible than reason. They
hare voted with their friends."
Mr. Ingalls went on to speak of the de-
termination of the South to eliminate the
negro as a factor from its political and so-
cial history and quoted on that point from
Democratic newspapers and Democratic
politicians. Continuing Mr. Ingalls said:
The prospects for this condition of things
have been many but all rests upon the
inferiority of the African race upon the
fear of negro supremacy. I confess with
humility that to this nullification of the
constitution this breach of pledged
faith this violation of the natural
rights ot man the people of the north
have apparently consented practically
I sav it with shame and remorse the ne
groes have been abandoned to their fate
There are undoubtedly some thoughtful
men in the South who apprehend coming
events and would willingly relinquish the
right to represent a nation if States could
be permitted to impose race conditions
noon suffrage. Hut this is impossible. It
would shock the sense of mankind. The
gods cannot recall their gifts. Education
iiualihcatious anil other qualifications
would only postpone the crisis. It may be
postponed for a generation or it may be
precipitated at the next presidential elec
tion but I warn those who are perpetuat
ing these wrongs upon the nation the
country will not consent to have their
institutions their industries their
wealth and their civilization changed
modified or destroyed by a government
resting upon the deliberate and habitual
suppression of ttie colored vote or any
other vote by force or by fraud. Sooner or
later there will be an armed collision be
tween the races. The South is standing
upon a volcano the South is sitting on a
salety valve. They are beset with innu
meruble John Itrowns and Nat Turners
Already mutterings of discontent by hostile
organizations are heard. The use of the
torch and dagger is advised. I deplore
it but as God is my judge I say that no
other people on the face of the earth have
ever submitted to the wrongs and injustice
which have been for twenty-live
years put upon the colored
men of the South without revo
lution and blood. fApplause from negroes

race has been beyond all praise
They have been patient. They have
been loyal. They have been

bv the architects of the construction was
upheld by the military authority of the
uniieu states ana when tins wus with
drawn the inconirruous edifice toppled
headlong and vanished like the baseless
fabric of a vision."
Mr. Ingalls went on to warn the South of
the natural consequences ot its course to-
ward the colored people. Despotism he
said made nihilists. Injustice is the great
manufactory of dynamite. An adulterer
pollutes himself. A murderer inflicts a
deeper wound on himself than that which
slays his victim. The South in
imposing chains on the African race lays
heavier chains on ltseu man tnose wnu
which it binds a helpless race and those
who are denying to American citizens the
privilege ot ireerfom suouiu rememoer iiiui
there is nothinir so unprofitable as in
justice and thut God is an unyielding
creditor f our solutions ot tue problem ne
said had been suggested: Emigration
extermination absorption and disenfran-
chisement. Hut there was still a fifth solu
tion which has never been tried and that
solution was justice. "I appeal to the
South" he exclaimed "to try the experi-
ment of justice. Stack your guns open
vour ballot boxes register your voters
black and white and if after the experi-
ment has been faithfully tried
it appears that the African
race is incapable of civilization. If it ap
pears that the complexion burnt upon him
by an Indian sun is incompatible with
freedom I will pledge myself to consult
with you about some measure of solving
the race problem but (until then nothing
con be done.
At the conclusion of Mr. Ingalls address
the senate adjourned until Monday.
HOUHK.
After some unimportant business the
house went into a committee of the
whole for consideration of the Oklahoma
town site bill.
Mr. McKinlev. of Ohio from the com
mittee on ways und means reported back
the customs administrative bill and it was
referred to the committee of the whole.
Mr. McKinlev then moved that the house
go into committee stating that as soon as
tlie committee was in session ne wouiu
move that it rise and the house adjourn.
Hut this did not prove satistactory to tne
Democrats and Mr. Crisp of Georgia
moved an adjournment. .
The speaker decided the motion lost 83
to 88 and the yeas and nays were called
lor. The motion to adjourn was lost yeas
!)4 nays 11)0.
The motion then recurred on Mr. McKin-
ley's motion to go into committee; but as
it was evident that the Democrats would
demand tlie yeas and nays Mr. McKinley
moveii to aojourii which motion wus
agreed to.
The reason underlying; sir. unsp s mo-
tion to adjourn wasthat he feared the com-
mittee on elections might reiiort upon the
contested elecMon case of Smith vs. Jack
son. from the Fourth West irginia dis
trict. He does not desire (und in this he
has the full support of the Democratic side
of the house) that any of the contested
cases shall be called up while the house is
devoid of any rules for its government and
is dependent only on general parliamentary
law us construed by the spcuiier.
ltorsK.
The report of the committee on elections
in the Smith-Jucksoii case was submitted
to the house and recommitted. After
some routine business the house went into
a committee of the whole on the customs
udmiiiistrutive bill.
Wasiiinoton January 24. On motion of
Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio the house insisted
in its amendment to the senate bill for re-
moval of obstructions from the Missouri
river and a conference was ordered. Mr.
WaUer of Missouri from the committee
on commerce reported and the house
passed the senate bill authorizing the con-
struction of a bridge across the Missouri
river within one mile North and one mile
South and Fast of the mouth of the Kansas
river. The house then went into commit-
tee of the whole for further consideration
of the customs administrative bill.
VIRGINIANS TALKING OF DUEL.
Bad Blood Engendered by the Suit Regarding
Mary Washington's Grave.
Fredericksbtro Va. January 23. A
duel may result from the suit for damages
growing out of the alleged sale of Washing-
ton's grave. Mr. Fitzhugh counsel for the
plaintiff's is alleged to have said that if
Capt. De Atley a witness for the defendant
testified as he had announced he would
that Shepard the defendant had said he
would not accept 100oo for the Mary
Washington plot he (Fitzhugh) would call
him a liar rtien and there and prove it.
Capt. De Atley said today that he could
not attack Fitzhugh in a court room.
Hut." he added "l will publish a card in
the Free Lance next Tuesday branding
Fitzhugh as a shirking coward who tinder
the protection and during the session of a
couit d;ires to insult better men than him-
self. I am partial to neither party to this
suit and have no interest in it. but I will
not allow any jackanape lawyer to ques-
tion the truthfulness of evidence given by
myself under oath." If the card ia pub-
lished there is very little doubt that the
captain will receive a challenge.

DRESSED BEEF COMMITTEE.
Washington January 24. The meat in
vestigating committee of which Senator
Vest is chairman resumed its session this
morning. The committee lias concluded
its inquiry into everything except tlie rail
road branch of the investigation and the
meeting this morning was for the purpose
of questioning the officers of several large
railroad corporations as to the rates gov
erning tne transportation ol cattle and
dressed beef. After this branch of the in
quiry is finished Senator Vest will begin
the preparation of the report of tlie com-
mittee. Tlie first witness Samuel Stone
of the Lackawanna company in answer to
questions of Senator Vest said the Lacka-
wanna road had refused to transport cars
lieloninmr to other people and had some
litigation growing out of this refusal with
Nelson Morris of Chicago.
Mr. Morns bad subsequently withdrawn
the suit. No oll'erof compromise was made
him. Morris claimed that because of his
peculiar construction of his cars lie should
liave certain advantages over other ship
pers wlucn the Lackawanna could not
yield. The Lackawtnna used the cars of
private concerns sometimes paying of a
cent a mile for the use of a car.
This rate was uniform to all
persons. Witness Was questioned with
regard to money matters of details and
as lie replied that these did not come be-
fore him but before the freight depart-
ment. Tlrtn Mr. W. A. Sloan freight
agent was called to the stand. The Lock-
awanna he said was the principal cattle
carrier from Chicago to New York. The
company's supply of cars was not adequate.
The company had a special contract with
the Lackawanna .Livestock express an en-
tirely distinct corporation from the rail-
road company by which 250 cars were
rented for five years two years ago for c
per nine eucn way.
in response to Mr. vest s questions wit
ness admitted that an understanding had
been reached bv the Trunk lines bv the
terms of which the companies agreed to
pay mileage on private cars. Under no cir-
cumstances were outside cars to be used.
This action was taken because the rail
roads had had a large supply of cars which
were sidetracked while they were paying
mileage on tnem.
Mr. vest said why was it necessary to
form a combination for this purpose?
Could not the companies each act?
witness mere was an understanding
to act together because if one company
used the cars competition would compel
the others to do the same.
Senator Vest If the cattle are offered to
the companies und thev liavo no curs to
carry them would you refuse to tuke out
sidecars;
Witness Yes sir. under agreement.
To Senator Plumb Mr. Sloan stated that
there was no dely in shipment because of
agreement. Various companies had
sulicient car facilities.
INUAI.I.8 AND THE NEGROF.S.
Washington January 24. Senator In-
galls today received visitors from a delega-
tion of Louisiana Republicans who pre-
sented to him a resolution adopted at a
meeting held this morning thanking In-
galls for the able speech delivered by him
in the senate yesterday. Senator Ingalls
responded briefly. He said he could not
have been as patient as negroes of Louis-
iana had been. He urged them to con-
tinue to be patient and said that with pa-
tience he felt sure they would win.
Washington- January 24. S. J. Ritchie
of Ohio appeared before the ways and
means committee and argued in favor of
the free transportation of Canadian miner-
al ores and in favor of unrestricted recip-
rocity with the dominion. The chairman
having ascertained that Mr. Ritchie was
conversant with Canadian matters inquired
what the sentiment was in Canada in re-
gard to annexation. Mr. Ritchie replied
that any sentiment could be found in
Canada which anybody wished to find for
there was considerable sentiment in favor
of reciprocity and by taking the proper
course the United States could increase the
sentiments. fVV)
Mr. Payne asked as to the feeling towards
the Hutterworth reciprocity bill.
Mr. Ritchie replied that the opposition
in the Canadian parliament numbering
about one-thirl of its membership had
adopted the Hutterworth bill as its plat-
form. In reply to a question by Mr. Car-
lisle. Mr. Kitehie slated that American
faierests in Canada were very largo.
R.Mr. Carlisle asKed whether Canada
Would give the United Slates free coal if
the United States gave her free iron.
Mr. Ritchie replied emphatically in the
affirmative.
Henjamin Buttenvorth of Ohio addres-
sed the committee in support of bis bill for
reciprocity with Canada.

Grand Army of the Republic and Ladies'
Veteran relief corps gave a grand ball and
camp fire tonight for the benefit of the ex-
Confederate Home at Austin and the relief
fund. It was well attended and quite a sum
of money will be added to the Confederate
Home exchequer.
Decided Illegal.
Colorado Tex. January 23. The quo
warranto proceedings to test the validity of
Colorado as a city was tried in the district
court yesterday and today and this after-
noon Judge Conner rendered a decision
that the change from a town to a city in
corporation in 1883 was illegally made and
that as the town incorporation still holds
good the present city officers hold their po-
sitions illegally. The defendants gave no-
tice of appeal and will carry
the case to the supreme court
now ' in session at Galveston where
it will take precedence over other cases
and will therefore probably be decided
within the next three weeks. As the city
has issued a large amount of street city
hall and waterworks bonds there is likely
to be an interesting legal light over the
validity of these.

Taylor Tex. Jan. 23. Our artesian well
borers after going down about 1200 feet
struck rock and after going through 200
feet of hard stone struck water about 4
o'clock a. m. yesterday. An 8-inch stream
came gushing to the surface at a tempera-
ture of over 100 degrees Fahr. which shows
that it came from near the boiling point
and the old place itself.
The great question now with the direct-
ors is what shall we do with the water? It
is overflowing the ards and gardens in
its course to the sea. Several claims are
a.ready in for drowning ducks and geese
which were not able to fiy up out of reach
of the flowing wuter.
Several organizations are already in con
templation; one is for starting a lino of
steamers on the Mustang in opposition to
the railroad for transportation purposes.
The secretary has also been requested to
open correspondence with manufacturers of
pipe lor a suincient supply and
to go into a contract with the
inhabitants of the moon on a fify
year lease to supply that unknown country
with good pure and wholesome water
which has gone through a boiling process
in the lower regions and thereby paving
the way for closer commercial intercourse
and getting that country represented in
Blaine's great pan-American commission
show.

Galveston Texas January 23. The case
of Charles Juneman H. C. Weyer Fred
Kochler Allen and Cliff Porter for the al
leged lynching of Emil Fleischeig down the
island in August 1880 was called in the
district court today. The- case against
Porter was dismissed and the cases against
the others were continued by the State
until the March term of the court on ap
plication of the State on account of absence
of important witnesses. It will be remem-
bered that Fleischeig was a green Gorman
boy recently arrived from Germany and
was employed by Chas. Juneman at his
uairy uowu me island. Uunngthe absence
of Juneman one morning Fleishcheig was
accused of having attempted to outrage

Now if Mr. Windom could only be
admitted to the floor of the house to
champion the measure the whole pro-
ceedings would be entirely English.
Tlie bill has been referred to the house
committee on coinage weights and
measures and I understand that Sec-
retary Windom has already been
promised a favorable report by the
Republicans of that committee. It
will be interesting to see whether con-
gress will resent this clear usurpation
of its functions by the executive
brunch of the government or whether
it will be quietly accepted and allowed
to stand as a precedent for future ad-
ministrations. .
Governor Campbell was today par-
tially examined by the house commit-
tee investigating the Ohio ballot box
forgery. Nothing new was brought
out. Ex-Governor Foraker who was
examined Friday and Saturday did
not raise himself any in the estima-
tion of honorable men by his testi-
mony telling how he bribed Wood to
get possession of the forged document.
Under cross-examination he admitted
that he should have discovered the
forgeries if he had made as careful an
examination of the paper as he
should have done. Mr. Foraker
seems for some reason or other ts be
extremely bitter against Kepresenta-
tives Mckinley and Butterworth of
Ohio.
There was a lively time in the
room of the house committee on
reform in the civil service this morn-
ing caused by a discussion before that
committee on the merits of the
present civil service law. Opposed to
the law were Representatives Houck
and Ewart and favoring it the civil
service commissioners. The law re-
ceived some very hard knocks but if
the private claim of the commissioners
that a majority of the committee is
pledged to them is true nothing is.

Secretary Blaine has the sympath
of everybody in the terrible bereave
ment which has fallen upon him by
tho sudden death of his brilliant
young son A'alker Blaine.
Ex-Senator Tom Tlatt of New l ork
heard about the incipient Morton
presidential boom and came over here
to read the riot act to the vice presi
dent and to inform him that New
York would have but one candidate
to present to the National Republican
nominating convention in 1892 and
his name would be Piatt. Mr Morton
refused to see things in just that light
but before Mr. l'latt went back home
the two would-be candidates patched
up some sort of a truce. Mr. Piatt
was heard to say to a friend: "Oh let
Morton think he is a candidate and
spend his money; it will put it in cir-
culation." As every congressman asked about
it expresses himself in favor of an im-
mediate settlement of the question of
location for the world's fair it is fair
to presume that it will be settled this
week or next at the farthest.
The bill admitting Wyoming has
been favorably reported by the senate
committee on territories and the same
committee has decided to lay aside
the bill for the admission of Idaho
until the Supreme court decides a
case now before it affecting the co:
sutuuonaiity of the constitution
recently adopted by the people of that
territory.
