Columbian of the Sun dry Civil Bill of the Geological Stir ey WAsiiiNtiTON July SENATE--- Democrat New York offered a bill chnnging the date of the dedication of the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago from the 12th to the 21st of October 1S92 Ile said the latter date was really the correct date of the discovery of America according to our present calendar the 12th of October was according to the old system It was proposed to hold celebrations all over the country in howls of that event Great preparations had been made in New York for a celebration to take place on the 12th of October An act had been passed by the Legislature naming the date and making an appropriation for the purpose The Legislature was not in session and could not be W011 reconvened to change the date The celebration WOUld C011tliCt to $ome extent With the dedication of the buildings at Chicago It was desired by the citizens of New York to participate in the Chicago celebration and accordingly a bill had been drawn to change the date of the Chicago celebration to mcke it conform to the modern calendar Ile bad consulted the Illinois Senators and such of the World's Fair managers as were in the city and they offered no objection to the proposition On the contrary they rather favored it though they could not take affirmative action Under these circumstances he asked immediate consider-idiot) of the bill A fter remarks from Mr Cullom the bill was taken up and unanimously passed Gallinger Republican of New Ilampshire With a preliminary statement that the committee on contingent expenses as he understood were now in consultation on the proposition to in the Homestead riots proceeded to occupy the time while the Senate was waiting for the committee to report by delivering a set speech in reply to the remarks of Mr Voorhees yesterday and in general defense of the Republican protective tariff The consideration of the sundry civil bill consumed the balance of time day Much of the discussion was on the system of assessing and levying taxes in the District of Columbia- The usual annual attack Was made upon the aoproprtmoi of about 00o0000 for carrying on time operations of the gemmlogical bureau It Was contended by smite Senators that the money was expended without proper accountability or direction and without practical results Call Florida Dawes imissachusetts and Hawley and Platt Connecticut defended the scientific value of the researches of the bureau The light was nmade on the liouse proposition to omit the appropriation of f1no0 for salaries of WO paleontologists On a roll call the paleontologists were retained by a vote of :11 to 21 The ap1311 I p1i3t1011 Or $95000(1 inserted by the Senate tor continuing the WOrk of the census bureau was agreed to without a division At the Senate had hi pages of the printed bill still to he disposed of includuig tlie provision for the Vorld's COlumbian Exposition and the contingency question as to whether or not the Exposition should be opened to visitors on Sunday A motion of adjournment was made but Mr Quay Republican of Pennsylvania rose amid said that in course of the argument yesterday there were severe reflections upon the management of the Carnegie at Homestead Ile desired now to have printed in the Record a counter statement front Mr Frick the manager Mr Cockrell Demorcat of Missouri: "What is the length of it Mr Quay: "Almost a column" The Vice President: "Is there ubjecLion The chair hears none" Mr Pella Farmers Alliance Kansas: "If the statement is similar to what appears in the papers this morning as having Conte frmil him in Which he places the blame for the entire caltunity the workmen I shall object to this going into the Record vt ithout a counter-statement from them But if it is not of this character I have no objection" Mr Quay replied that he had no doubt it was identically the same statement which had appeared in the morning pa pers As far as the workmen were concerned he was perfectly willing to present to the Senate any statement they might make Mr Penes: "Then let them be brought in together I only want perfect fairness in the matter If the statement of one side goes to the country I want the counter-statement to go also If the statement of the Senator is true that this is the same that appeared in the papers I object Mr Quay said he sympathized largely with the workingmen and certainly did not desire to do anything to prejudice the cause But Mr Frick was not there yesterday when he was attacked in the Senate and that was allowed to go Mr Peffer replied that he was not responsible for what was said on the Senate floor yesterday But in the absence of a counter-statement from the in whom 1)1r charged with being responsible for all the trouble he (Mr MINI) felt that he should be direlict in his duty if he did not object Quay: "Very well then I will read it as part Of my remarks" The Senator from Pennsylvania commenced to do so but as his weak voice was almost inaudible he sent the interview with Ills Frick as published in the Uni- ted Press dispatches this morning to the clerk's desk where it was read by Clerk Johnson Mr Chandler (Republican) of New Hampshire asked if that was a signed statement Mr Quay: "It is not signed" Mr Chandler: "II as the Senator any evidence that it is authentic except what he saw in the morning papers?" Mr Quay: "I have none at all" Penes sent to the clerk's desk and had read a statement published in the Washington Post this morning giving the workmen's side of the dispute so that this might also be printed in time llecord Mr Chandler moved to rdjourn and then at 6:13 the Sediate adjourned until tomorrow ust in McCarthy Defeated In the Election LoNnoN July McCarthy bas been defeated in Londonderry by Ross the Conservative candidate Right Hon Ilenry Chaplin president of the board of agriculture has been reelected also Right Hon Edward Stanhope Sacretary of State for War Timothy Harrington Parne Hite has been reelected in the harbor division of Dublin Up to 3 the results showed the election Of 162 Conservatives 121 Liberals 22 Unionists 13 anti-Parnellites and 4 Parnellites About half the 670 members of the House of Commons have bee a elected fl CENTS PER LINE EACH INSERTION SA high grade pneumatic Tryon tit Shortivees daily at No 9 East Street CAPT) ROESSLER RENT 'Urns Apply to HOWELL tirst-class man who has had nne experience on the road Address experience and qual i fi(titious "I)" care 7 -at EN do live business men advertise?
