Ia the senate several petitions fur and against the Congo lard bill and resolutions drpre eating any further legislation in regard to silver were presented. The house the rt lief of Major Whan, srmy bill crediting hiu with pay nia.-U-r. i.ieli be government funds of aa robbed in Arizona in May, pasted. Piatt gavenotioe that he would atk the scmite on Monday after routine morning business to consider the houe copyright bilL The finance bill was thea laid before the senate. The bouse bill to provide for an addi-tionassociate justice of the supreme court of Arizona, passed. The financial bill was taken up and Plumb gave notice of aa amendment limiting to ?l,0t0 the eumpulsory requirement O a deposit of United State bonds for every national bauk. This is not to apply to the dtqxwit of bonds to secure the public moneys in the national banks. Blackburn addressed the senute in advocacy of Stewart's amendments for free comuge. He was not willing to have it go to the country and the world that the amendment was simply an eifort by the representatives of thi ail ver statue and that the rest of the country was iudilTerent to tho result. There was not a silver mine wilhm the limits of the great commonwealth of Keutucky and yet ho ventured to assert that hor people were as united, aa earnest, as honest and as clamorous in their demand for tho free coinage of silver an were the pooplo of Colorado. California, Idaho or Nevada. Opponents of free coinage might rely on ttio veto power of the president, but a vaia reliance. He that would prove denounces the anti-silvpolicy of every administration for the last twenty years. It did not matter to him that his own parly was, for four years, responsible for continuing the wrong. Cleveland's administration was just as amenable to criticism nncl censure an its predecessors or its successor. Tho farmers alliance was now centralized into a national organization, and was protesting against class legislation. Every intelligent man, and every honest man, acknowledged that they had just canse of complaint. They asked redress of grievances, not imaginary, but real. The mighty west and rejuvenated south had endured the fleecing process until patienco was exhausted; and now they :uomt that just laws should be enacted and unjust laws regaled. Morgan followed Blackburn in advocacy of the amendment, he yielded the floor withourconcluding his speech, and the bill was laid aside. The' senate bill appropriating 8100,(A10 for a public building at Joliet, III., and the house bill appropriating $50,000 for one nt ItocK-for111., was reported, and placed on Also tho senate bill the calendar. creating the office of fourth assistant postmaster general.
