Tuesday Mr. Qusy’s resolution toehsnge
the rulusndlissln'osnmms fortho sour
siou went over by strongement until today.
The senate passed bill granting right of
way through lands in Utah and house bili
authorising
oi the western part. oilthe'Crow reservation
in Montana. The tsriil bill was taken up,
and Mr. Plumb withdrew his amendment
to the tin plats paragraph, announcing
that he would offer it later in the seniors.
Some progress was made with the bill.
Just More the senate adjourned last
evening Mr. Hoar gave notice of two
amendments to Mr. Quay's resolution pro-
viding for an order bipartisan in the sort-
ats. The tiratlu his resolution :n'provide
for calling the previous question. The
other amendment is to take the place of
Mr. Boar's substitute for the Quay resolu-
tion.
The amendment pkovides for taking up
the fodersl elections bill immediately sitar
the tarifl bill is disposed of and that the
bill shall remsin before the senate every
day for three days after the reading of the
journal to the exclusion of all «2' '...-.- busi-
ness and on Sept. 4 st 2 o'clock voting on

they are finally disposed of.
Mr. Quay’s resolution prov-L es for .t final
vote on the tart! bill on by -. Jay, Aug. 30.
If the resolution with hi. xiosr’s amend-
ment should be adopted . .zcletrtiousbiil
would come before the set .5 on Monday,
Sept 1, with only three c. ,s allowed for
general discussion. There n no likelihood,
however, that Mr. Boar's ,roposltion will
meet with the approval of ; he senate. The
impression among Repu'rlicsu uenaton
today isthat the Quay mlutlon will be
voted down or postponed under. so agree-
ment which it is thought can be had
among the Republicans, illl'ullgll confer-
ence or counts.
A great many Republican senators who
(ever the postponement of the considera-
tion of the elections bill believe that. it
would be bad policy to declare that senti-
ment by vote of the senate and they udvo
cats an agreement between the Republb
cans and Democrats to be reached by con-
ference.
The Struggle In the House.
“'Asmxmox, Aug. air—Representative
Kennedy (0.) is circulating for signatures
among the Republican members of the
house a petition to urge the passage of the
elections bill by the senate. it isuuder»
stood thst it contains forty-six names. A
number of members have refused to sign
the petition on the ground that it will be
considered its an imperiinence by the sen-
ate. Among the signers are several prom-
inent members of the house.
Nearly all the Republicans in the Ohio
delegation have plsmd their signatures on
the paper. Mr. Kennedy's petition is until-
iug more than on appeal to the sonata
committee on rules to provide for taking
up the elections bill at this session. The
si ers pledge themselves to remain in
ushington at the expense of personal
comfort and inclination until the senate
has disposed of the bill.
The petition has come in connict with
another eflort that is being made to have
the elections bill passed at this session.
him lodge (Mass. ) and )icComss (Md)
areeugineeriug this plan. They have in-
terviewed Republican members to ascer-
tain how many will pledge themselves to
prevent the passage of the tariff bill when
it comes back to the house until the sensts
disposesof the elections bill. Few mem-
bers expressed themselves in favor of this
scheme, and it is understood that it will
not be tried.
The houseklelmted for an hour, without
action. the alien lnml huv bill. After some
debate on order reported from the commit-
tee on rule-o was adopted setting aside

Mr. Stookbridgr l.‘Ill.), from the com-
mittee on commerce. reported tothe house,
without amendment, the senate bill to pro-
vide for the inspection of live cattle and

stated in the report, is to remove the up.
