Hale Said, waa that the Dnnenta were authorised. The paper, which are voluminous, were Mrterad printed. Mr. Fogs, repreaentfnir the minority eff ie Committee on Judiciary, submitted the Flews of the minority on the resolution re-(erred to that committee concerning the iffioe of District Attorney for the Southern putrid of Alabama was ordered printed In the Congrea-tlonel Record and aUo In separate form. The minority report la three or onr times is lone as the majority report.

It embodies To resolutions. Mr. Pas a asked that the report be printed and be plaqed on calendar, la was read in the Senate. The report says, that when President gerelaaa oame Into ofBeehe found about 95 percent, of the etaees AUed by Republican tppoisted as A Be ward for Party Services. Tie party to whom the President owed aoininatlon and election had been exiled ram all participation In the civil administration of the government for nearly a aaarter of a century.

The friends and supporters of the President made appiloaUon or a redistribution of tbe pablio trusts. so other President has ever been subjected sooh a severe trial or had to meet so many grave dilHoultaes. an no other ad such ta abundant supply of valid reasons and nui nrsins hliu to a free exercise of his wwer of removal Irom Federal oflice and no. lust elauas ot his supporters or used bis power of remoral mora oonBolentiously and 'jJotwluiBtandliiir these facta, the 650 nominations sent to the Senate In the suspension eases had been allowed to reinaia before the committees without consideration and final Uh position. Dosttn had made no complaint to the Ju-Hotary Committee, the President or the At corner General that he waa wronged by tbe ku pension.

The committee waa fnlly In-formed that Burnett was recommended to tbe President by all the members of Congress from Alabama for personal knowledge his oharacter. Stripped to the naked truth, without any special pleading, the case made for the Ben-ate on their resolution, and the answer of he Attorney General, la Whether the Sen-tee has the tight to demand of the Attorney general the transmission, against the order jf the President, of a paper or document of asscription mentioned in the resolution, -rhen that paper or document Is stated in lb refusal to relate exclusively to the removal of. Doatln by the President, and, for that reason alone, is not transmitted The President holds that it is not a public document. There is no doubt that his aeci-on must be accepted as conclusive. The minwity admits that all publlo documents relating to any subject over whlon Cob (tress has power are subject to call, out denies the right to demand aoouments relating exclusively to removals or Suspensions, i The only rightful custodian of such papers toe President.

-wT "eeed ring the propriety of the suspension re- icrraiia. Thongn those suspension are my execu tive acts, based upon- considerations addressed to me alone, and for which I am wholly responsible, I have bad no Invitation xrom ue oenate to state the position wnicn I have felt constrained to assume In relation to the same, or to Interpret for myself my acts and motives in the pre-nicee. Ill this condition of affair, I have fore-borne to address the Senate upon the subject lest I mlgst be accused of thrusting myself unbidden upon the attention of that body, but the report of the Committee oa the Jadl-dary of tbe Senate, lately presented and puoiiahed, which censurei the Attorney uenerai ot cne united States for bis reiasai to transmit certain papers relating to the suspension of an official which also, if I cor rectly interpret it, evinces a miaapprehen-' sion of the position of the Executive upon the question of such suspensions, will, I nope. Justify this communication. The President refers to the resolution ot the Senate calling for the Dastin papers and tbe reply of the Attorney General thereto Upon the resolution and the answer thereto, the Issue is thus stated by the Committee on the Judlolara at the ontaat of the reoort The important question then Is, whether tt is within the constitutional competence ot either house ot Congress to have access to the official paper and docomenta in the various public offices of the United States, created by laws enacted bv themseivita I do not suppose that "the public officer of the United States are regulated or con trolled in their relations to either house of Congress by the fact: that tbey were "cre- u-u oy taws enaccea oy themselves," It must be that these Instrumentalities were created roa.

The complaint of tbe committee tbat ac eess to official naoers in the duoIIo offices ia denied the Senate, is met by the statement that at so time has it been the disposition or the intention ot the President or aoy department of the executive branch ot the government to withhold from tne Henau. official documents or papers hied la any of (he public offices-While it is by no means conceded that the senate nas tne right in any case to review the sots of the Executive in removing or sus pending a -public officer, upon ofiiotul documents or otherwise, it ia considered that documents and papers of that nature should, because they are official, be freely transmitted to the Senate upon Its demand, trusting the use ot the same for proper and legitimate purposes to the KOod lalth of that body. and.

though no such dsdst or docu ment ass oeen epeeinoauy aeinanaea in any oi tne -numerous requests aud deinanas made niton the department, vet. a often aa they were found in the public oiliors they have been furnished, In answer to suuh applications. The letter of the Attorney General, in re sponse to the resolution of the Senate, in the particular case mentioned lu tne commit tee's report, was written at my suggestion ana Dy my direction. There htd been no official paper or documents hied in hi department relating to the case within the perl ad specified in the resolution. The letter was intended, by its description of the papers and documents renialninir in the custody of the department, to convey tne tuea rnat tney were not otuciai, and it wa assumed that the resolution called for Information, papers and documents of the same character as were required by the requests aud demands which preceded it.

Every tiling tnat had been written or done on behalf ot the Senate from tbe beginning pointed to all letters and papers of a pri vate ana unomoiai nature as tne ooieots ot search. If they were to be iound in the de partments, ana provided tney naa been presented to the Executive, with a viewWtueir consideration upon the question of suspen sion irom omoe. Against the transmission of such papers and documents I have interposed my advice and direction. Tola has not been done as is suggested in the committee's report, upon the assumption on my part tnat tne Attor ney General or any other head of a department is the servant of the President, and la to give or withhold eopies of documents in hia office according to the wiii of the Executive, and not otherwise." but because 1 regard the papers and aoouments with held and addressed to me or intended for my use and action. rUHLT DKOFTICIAI.

The naneiw and documents that are now the objects of the Senate's request consist ot letters and representations addressed to the Executive or intenaea ior nis inspection. They are voluntarily written and presented by private citizens who are not in the least Instigated thereto by any official invitation or at en snoiect to omciai control. While some of them are entitled to execn ttve consideration, many of them are ao irrelevant, or. In the light of other facts, so worthless, tnat tney nave not been given the least weight in determining the question to wnicn tney arasuppoaea to relate. Are all these, slmpiy because they are pre served, to be considered official documents and subject to the inspection of the Senate!

There is no mysterious power of transformation In department custody, nor is mere magic in. tne unaennea ana sacred solemnity ox department flies. If the presence of these paper in the nubile omoes is a stumbling blocx in the way of the performance ot Senatorial duty, it can be easily removed, The papers aud docomenta which have been described derive no official coaracter from any constitutional, statutory or other requirement axing toern necessary to the performance of the official duty of the Executive. It will not be aenled. I suppose, that the President may suspend a puolio oihoer In the entire absence of any papers or docu ments to aia nis omoiai juagment ana ais-cretion, and I am quite prepared to avow tnat tne eases are not lew in which suspen sions from omce have depended more upon representations made to me by citizens of known good repute and by members ot the House ot Representatives and Senators of the United States than upon any letters and documents presented for my examination.

While, tnereiure, 1 am constrained to DENT Til SIGHT Off THB SKKATH to the paper aud documents described, to far as the right to the same la based upou the claim that tbey are in any view of the subject official. I am also led unequivocally to aiapnte tne rignt ot tne senate, by tne aid ot any documents whatever, or In any way save through the Judicial process of trial or lmpeaenmeat, to review or reverse the act of the Executive in the suspension, daring tne recess ox tne Beanie, oi federal officials. believe tnat the uower to remove or suspend such ottioiaia Is vested In tne Presi dent alone by tne constitution, which In ex press terms provide that: "The executive power uau oe vestea in a xresiaent ox the United states oi America and tnat he shall take care that the law be faithfully executed." The senate belong to tbe legislative branch ot tne government. When tne constitution, by express provisions, added to its legislative auue tne right to advise and consent to appointments to office and to sit as a court oi impeacnment, it eonlerred upon Khat bodv all toe control and tscnlanon of executive actions supposed to be necessary tor the safety of the people, and this express ana 1000184 grant-01 suon extraordinary powers, not in any way related to or grow ing out or general senatorial amy ana in lt- nu u-itn uvai too geneva pian ex our government should be held, under a familiar maxim of construction, to exelnda every other right ot Interference with exeo- Uuvo lUDOuou.

In the nret Congress, which assembled atter the adoption of the constitution, comprising many who aided In lu proposition, a legislative eons traction waa given ta instrument In which, the Independence of the executive In the matter of removals from oflice was fully sustained. 1 1 una it will oe Iound that In the sub. sequent discussion et this question there waa generally. If not at all ttsnea. a eronoai- tloa pending to, in some way, ear tall tais power et the President by legislation which turalahe evidence that to limit such power It wa supposed to be necessary tu aunme.

ment tbe constitution by snoh legislation. i The first enactment ot this provision was passed under stress of partisanship and political bitterness, which culminated In the President's impeachment. This law provided that the Federal ofllcere. to which it applied ron lit only be suspended dnrlnv th nf tlia Rmate. when shown by evidence satisfactory to the President to oe gouty or misconduct in omce or mmn, or when incapable or disqualified to perform tnelr duties, and that within twenty days of the next meeting of tbe Senate, it should be the duty of the President to report the senate auen suspension witn wn art I rauAna fm hta -jtrinn fa the ease.

This statute, passed in 1867, wnen Congress waa overwhelmingly and bitterly opposed, politically, to the President, may be regaraea as an indication ust -tu uioi was thought necessary oy a cwufprca" uunea upon tmt ansirniTrnv A Tint EXKCUHV to tan UurflM.tiva mill to furnish itself a law for thA hdpiimii tn.unul tit attempting to reach the object Intended by an Invocation of any pretended constitutional right. The law which thus found Its way to nr statute books was plain In its terms anu iim Intent needed no avowal. If valid and now in operation it would Justify the present coarse of the Benate and command the obedience of the Executive to its demand. It may, however, be remarked. In passing, that nnder the law the President ha the privilege of presenting to the body which assnmed to review his executive acts his reasons therefor instead of being excluded from explanation or Judged by papers found In tae departments.

wo years after the law 01 iws7 waa p. and wlihU less than five weeks after the inauguration ot a President4n political ac cord with both branches 4t Co a Kress, the sections of the aet regulating suspensions from office daring the recess of the Senate were entirely repealed and in their places were substituted provisions which, instead of limirlntr th nf ansnenaion to IDiS- conduot, crime, disability, or disqualifica tion, expressly permit tea sncn -uepou-wu by the President in his discretion and com-nletelv abandoned the reauirement obliging him to report to tne Senate the evidence and the reasons for his action. With these modifications and with all branches ot tbe government in political harmony, and in the absence ot FAJtrisAjj iscKMTrve to cxfxioos obstkdc-TIOS the law aa It waa left bv the amendment of 1869 was much less destructive of Executive discretion, and yet the great oenerai ana patriotic citizen wno on mo "'jp 1809, asanme tbe duties of Chief Executive, and for whose freer adniinistrattou of his higbcboftlce the most hateful restraints of the law of 1S67 were on the 5th day of April, 1809, removed, mindful ef his obligation to defend and protect every prerogative of his great trust and apprehensive of the iDjury which threatened the public service in tea continued operations of these statutes even lu their modified form, in bis first message to Congress advised their repeal and aet forth their unconstitutional character and hurtful tendency. I am unaole to state wnetner or no mis recommendation for a repeal of these laws has been since repealed, if it has not the reason can probaoly be found in the experience which demonstrated the fact that tne necessities of the polltltal situation but rarely developed their viclons cnaraoter, and so it happens that after an existence of nearly 20 ers of utmost Inoccnous desuetude these laws aro brought forth, apparently the repealed as well as the unrepealed, and put in the way of an executive who is willing, if permitted, to attempt an improvement in the methods of administration. The constitutionality of these laws IB Dy no means admitted, but why should the provisions of the repealed law, which required a specific cause for suspension and a report te tne Senate of the evidence and reasons, be now, lu efiect, applied to the present Executive Instead of the law afterwards passed and unrepealed, which distinctly permits suspensions by tbe President in his aud carefully omits the requirement that evidence and reasons for his actions in the case shall be reported to the Senate.

The request and demands by tbe score, have for nearly three montns been presented to the. different departments of the government, whatever, may be th intention, have but one complexion. They assume the right of the Sena te ro sit In judgment upon the exercise of my exclusive discretion and the executive function for which I am solely responsible to tne people from whom I have so lately received. TUB SACKED TRUST OF OFFICE. Sworn to support and defend the constitu tion, mv duty -to tno people, who have ohoseh to invest me with the executive pow ers of their great otnue, ioroias me to relinquish the power of tne Chief Magistracy, which I-must preserve unimpaired in ail Its dlimlty and vigor.

becomes me. therefore, to reinse to com ply with these demands, to the end that toe service may be improved. The Senate ia invited to tne iauegt scruti ny of the persons submitted to them for pub-lio office, in recognition of the constitutional powers 01 tnat ooay to auyise ana consent to their appointment. 1 ab.au continue as nave tnns far done. to furnish at the request ot the confirming body, all information 1 posses touching the fitness of the nominee placed 'before them for tneir action, both wnen they are proposed to fill vacancies and to take tne place ot suspended ion a reiusa cvunrm.

snail not ume tne rignt to as tne reasons ior the action ot the Senate nor question nta determination. I cannot think that anything more is re quired to secure worthy incumbents in pua- 110 omoe man caret ui ana loaepenaent discharge of our respective dutlea within their well-defined limita. Though the pro priety 01 suspensions mignt oe assured if the action of the President was subject to review by the Senate, yet if the constitution and the law nave placed the responsibility upon the executive branch of the govern ment, it should not be divided, nor the discretion which it Involves relinquished. It ha been claimed that the present Ex ecutive having pledged himself not to remove officials except for cause, the fact of their suspension implies suon misconduct ou the Dart of a suspended official as in lores his character and reputation, aud that therefore the senate snouia review the case for his vindication. I have said that certain officials should not.

in my opinion, be removed during tbe continuance of the term for which they were appointed, solely for the purpose of pattiuf in their plaoe those In political accord fie appointing power, and this deoiarau.n immediately followed by a acscripii 1 of official partisanship wnicn one hi. i ai-title those in whom it was exhibited to sideratlon. It is not apparent now the course, ih u- nounced carried with It the onset 1 ri described. If in any degree the suu'r ia ia worthy of consideration, it is to be .1 that there may be a defense against unjust suspensions injustice to the Executive. Every pledge wmoh 1 have made by which I have placed a limitation upon my exoer- oiae ot executive power, has oeen faitnf oily redeemed.

Of coarse, the pretense Is not put forth that no mistakes have been com mittee: out not a suspension nas been niaaa except it appeared to my satisfaction that the pubiio welfare would be improved thereby. Many applications for suspensions have been denied, and the adherence to the rnl laid down to govern my notions as to suon suspensions nave caused much irritation ana impatience on toe part of those who have insisted upon more change in uim offioes- Tne pledges 1 have made were made to the people aud to them I am responsible for the manner In which they have been redeemed. I am KOT KESPOXSIBLX TO THE SENATE and I am unwilling to submit my actions aud olUciai eonduot to them tor udgmenw men) aio wi urounua ior aa allegation that the fear of being found falaa to mr nra. fesAions influences me in oecdiung to submit io tne uemanus 01 tae eenate. 1 have not constantly refused to suspend officials and thus incurred tbe displeasure ot political friends, and yet willfully broken faith with the people for the sake of being falaa to them.

i 2 either the dlgnnntAnt nf nartr Mida nor the allurements continually offer ed of confirmation of appointees, conditioned upon the avowal that the suspensions have been made on party grounua alunn. nor thn threat proposed in the resolutions now before the Senate, that no confirmations wilt be made unless the demands ot that body be compiled with, are sufficient to discourage or deter me from following in the way which I am convinced hutds to lMtt-iiFiiniini for the people.

Their names are Mrs. Alice a stone, xtirs. Jt reuencita ts. Kreiter. Miss Adelina Pattl Stone, Miss Freda B.

Scene, Miss Carrie Nevada Rock, Miss Ottoline Oberoeolc and Miss Ernestine Oberbeck. These ladies take their name from Chautauqua, the famous summer resort for teachers, pupils, Sunday school workers and good people generally In the State of Now York. It was there they originated this entertainment and met with great success. Their glees, solos, duets, trios, quartettes, and little bit are clever and neat in their way, but the audience last night did not take to the style, and the Chautauquans will not appear again at the Avenue Theatre. They should not have gone there before an audience drawn mostly to see a minstrel show.

The incongruity ot the coupling was as great as If a Madison Square Garden manager had annoaaaed an entertainment to consist ot a sparring exhibition by champion in the fistic arena, to be followed by Dr. Yon Bulow in classic piano recitals. Those who would go to see one part of such entertainment would not care to seethe other. The Chautauquans are delicate handsome, educated and refined ladies, and tney have a pretty and pleasing entertainment for-churches, red scboolhousee and halls In the country but they do not belong in theatres in big cities.

Chairman Garidel. ot the Public Order Committee, presided, and Aldermen Lord and Carroll, ot the same committee, and Aldermen Bysn, Farrell and kUlpatrick, of the Water and Drainage Committee, were present.

President B. B. MoConnloo, ot the Exposition, also attended. The conference wa for the purpose of considering the purchase of tbe Exposition water works by the city for SiO.ooo, the water works to revert to the city at the close of the Exposition and the payment to be mad in two annual Installment. Mr.

Evan detailed the result of an Inspection ot the works and an estimate of iheir value. He did not think them worth rite price named in Mr. Prague ordinance. He moved to insert $30,000. This was agreed to by the majority, Messrs, Lord aud Farrell opposing the entire ordinance.

The following amendment were adopted by tae same vote: By r. Ky an Tbat the sum Is hereby appropriated ont ot and la hereby ordered to be paid from any money that may be realized from the sale of railroad or other franchises that may be realized by the city during the years 1886 or 18S7, and that In case no money is so obtained, that tbe city hereby agrees to budget the amount herein contemplated. In the budgets of 188a nod 1837 in equal amounts one-half each year and that the sums so budgeted for shall be paid as soon as tnere shall be money In the City Treasury available lor the uurDusa herein eentaiu- plated. ay Mr. Garidel Provldedthat all sums real Ized from the sale of any franchises daring said years 1838 and 1887, over tne amount now set apart in the budget, be applied to the payment ot said note bv preference over all other ordinances, and that If the city be called upon to pay aaid notes or any of them outgpf the general fund, the amount thereof shall be reimbursed from any and all sums realized by the sale of franchises.

With these amendments the ordinance was sent to the Council with a favorable report. The reasons aasigeed for this is, that tbe water worka would be necessary to maintain a large public park, and that the Exposition deserved such small help from the city government.

Sdrof ula Is one of the most fatal scourges 'which afflict mank'Ind. It is often inherited, but may be the result of Improper vaccination, mercurial poisoning, nncleanliness, and various other Chronic Sores, Ulcers, Abscesses, Cancerous Humors, and, in some cases, Emaciation, and Con- eumption, result from a scrofulous condl- tion of the blood. This disease can be cured by the use of Ayer's SarsaparQla. I inherited a scrofulous condition of the blood, which caused a derangement of my whole system. After taking less than four bottles of AVer's Sarsapurilla I aru Entirely Cured and, for the past year, bare not found it necessary to Use any medicine whatever.

I am now in better health, and stronger, than. ever before. O. A. Willard, 213 Tremont Boston, Mass.
