The House Winds Up Business \Vith the Republicans Singing “Marching Through Georgia,” the Democrats Sing- ing “Dixie” and the Reporters’ Gallery Giving Forth the Long Meter Doxol- ogy—Speaker Reed Receives the Thanks of the House by a Party Vote on Which the R011 Call,Was Demanded by the Democrats. WASHINGTON, March 5. —The Fifty-first congress has finished its labors and passed into history. The senate, after the hands of the clock had been thrice turned back, adjourned as the dial marked 12:02 “rednes- day. The session opened at 9 o’clock in the morning, with the vice president in the chair. A quorum was not obtained Until 9:30. In the meanwhile various matters of routine came up and were disposed of. The first matter of any consequence was Mr. Pasco’s motion, made at the night ses- sion, to reconsider the vote agreeing to the conference report on the copyright bill and to recall the bill. The vote on the mo- tion was: Yeas, 21; nays 29. Before the vote was announced Mr. Hale asked unani— mous consent to present the conference re- port on the deficiency bill, but objection was made to any interruption of the roll call. The result of the call of the roll was highly satisfactory to the friends of the copyright measure. As at last settled by the conference com- mittee and adopted the bill provided that books which were on the free list under the McKinley bill (two copies) could be im- ported free of duty. It left out Mr. Sher- man’s amendment, left every One at liberty to import two copies of a foreign book by paying the duty on them, and left mag- azines to be imported, provided they did not contain copyright, matter. The further conference report on the de— ficiency bill was presented and read. The General Deficiency Bill. Mr. Stewart complained bitterly of the action of the conferrees in rejecting the claims of the states of California, Oregon and Nevada for expenses incurred in sup- pressing the rebellion, while provision was made in the bill for the French spoliation claim. He thought it the duty of the sen- ate to call a halt and rearrange the system of business so as to give proper time for consideration of important matters. He threatened to do all in his power to defeat the bill, even at the risk of an extra ses- sion. ' On motion of Mr. Sherman the senate went into executive session. IVhen the doors were reopened the clerk of the house appeared and announced that the house had agreed to the conference report on the general deficiency bill. Immediately after- ward Mr. Hale presented the same confer— ence report to the senate and moved its adoption. Mr. Stewart asked what disposition had been made of the amendments that were in dispute. He was informed by Mr. Hale that the house conferrees were so firm in their resistance to those amendments that it had become a question of giving up the amendments or giving up the bill. In consideration mainly of the large pension appropriation which the bill contained, the senate conferrees had receded from the amendments, and the amendments were now out of the bill. After a vigorous protest by Mr. Stewart the vote was taken and the conference re port was agreed to. Wouldn't Excuse Morgan. Mr. Morgan applied to be excused from further service on the committee on for- eign relations. Mr. Hoar objected and said that it would be with great regret that the senate and the country would see the distinguished senator from Alabama withdraw from that important committee. Ransom, Cullom, George, Spooner and German, and on motion of the latter the senate declined to accede to Mr. Morgan’s request. The senate spent more than half an hour in considering the African slave treaty. After a discussion of some general features of the treaty the senate rejected it by a large majority. During the secret session Mr. Farwell, who had objected yesterday to the con firmation of the nomination of Mr. Beatty to be district judge of Idaho, was impor- tuned by several senators to withdraw his antagonism, but he declined to do so. The objection of any one senator has the effect of causing a nomination to lie over twenty- four hours and as it was the last day of the congress Mr. Beatty will be prevented from filling the oflice. The nomination of R. S.‘Berlin, of N e- braska, to be a member of the Missouri river commission, was confirmed. Thanks and Adjournment. A resolution was offered by Mr. Mitchell instructing the judiciary committee to in- quire and report as to the date .when the laws relating to Chinese restriction ex- pire, whether in 1892 or 1894; also when the Chinese exclusion act of 1888 shall ex- pire. He explained that the object was to have new legislation on the subject before existing laws ceased to operate. The reso- lution was agreed to. ' , Mr. Ransom offered a resolution, which was agreed to, tendering the thanks of congress to the vice president for the cour- teous, dignified and able manner in which he had presided over the deliberations of the senate. A committee of two senators was ap- pointed to join ‘ a like committee on the part of the house to inform the president that congress was ready to adjourn. Messrs. Edmunds and German were ap- pointed on the part of the senate. The president having no further commu- nication to make the senate then adjourned in quiet dignity. IN THE HOUSE. [‘he Representatives Wind Up Business in a Tumult of Song. WASHINGTON, March 5.-—Tlie house ad- iourued proniptly nt 12 o’clock Wednes- day, with a wild hurrah on the floor and Like sentiment was expressed by Messrs. I an the galleries. The Republican mem- bers sang “Marching Through Georgia,” the Democrats attempted to sing “Dixie,” and the occupants of the reporters’ gal— |ery sang the long meter Doxolog ’. The session during\the night and morn- ing was tame and quiet, and nothing oc- curred that even created a slight ripple on the smooth surface of the proceedings. In the main the general tenor of conduct was good natured and the proceedings charac- terized by a genial feeling among the members. ' - Senate bill was passed authorizing Gen. Thomas F. Casey to accept from the French republic the decoration of the Le- gion of Honor; also senate bill to incor- porate the National Conservatory of Music of America. The disagreeing report on the deficiency appropriation bill was called up, the points of difference being the appropriations for the payment of the Central Pacific rail- road and for the payment of the French spoliations claims. The report was adopted and a motion made that the house recede from its disagreement to the French spolia- tion claims amendment, which motion was opposed by Mr. Butterworth, of Ohio. The motion to recede was agreed to. Mr. Holman, of Indiana, moved to re- consider, and a motion was made to lay that motion on the table. The muion to table was carried. The Speaker Thanked. Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, having taken the chair at this point, Mr. McKinley, of Ohio, offered the following resolution: “That the thanks of this house are pre- sented to the Hon. Thomas B. Reed for',the able, impartial and dignified manner in which he has presided over the delibera- tions and performed the arduous and - im- portant duty of the chair.” Mr. Mills demanded the yeas and nays. The resolution was agreed to by a strict party vote—yeas, 152; nays, 116. On the announcement of the vote there was an outburst of applause fromrthe Republican side, which was redoubled when Mr. Mills inquired whether this was part of the fu- neral services. Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, then submitted the conference report on the general defi- ciency bill, and while explaining the re- port the speakcr resumed the chair. His appearance was heartily greeted by the Republicans. Papers and records were thrown in the air, handkercliiefs were waved, and for a few moments the cham- ber rang with cheers. Throughout the demonstration the speaker was calm, and with a few strokes of his gavel restored order. A Tribute to Cannon. Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, paid a. warm tribute of respect to the chairman of the committee on appropriations (Mr. Cannon). He said that on the floor, in committee and in personal contact Mr. Cannon had always earned the gratitude of the gentlemen of the Democratic side. [Loud applause on both sides of the cham— ber.] The conference report was agreed to, thus disposing of the last of the general appropriation bills. On motion of Mr. McKinley the speaker was authorized to appoint a committee of three members to join the committee ap- pointed by the senate to wait upon the president and inform him that the two houses were ready to adjourn unless he had some further communication to make to them. ‘ As the president had nothing further to submit to the house the body then ad— journed in an uproar: Dropped Dead in Court. DETROIT, March 5.—1Villiam P. \Vells, one of the most distinguished Michigan lawyers, dropped deed in the county court \Vednesday morning just after he had fin- ished an argument. He had been collector of customs under President Johnson, was chosen chairman of the general council of the American Bar association and Kent professor of law in the University of Mich— igan, and one of the leading Democrats of the state. He had appeared in all the great Michigan cases, and practiced for many years past before the federal su- preme court. 'He was born at St. Albans, Vt., in 1831. A Lynching Averted. VVIOHITA, Kan, March 5.—John Logan, Sandy Thompson and Jack Pilcher, three of the worst horse and cattle thieves of the Indian Territory, were transferred here from Kingfisher, O. T., to save them from the fury of the crowd of farmers, who for two days have beenihttempting to enter the Kingfisher jail for the purpose of lynching the thieves. These three men were captured on Saturday with a. large number of stolen cattle and horses in their possession. NE‘V YORli ELECTIONS. For the first time in its history the city of Rome elected a Republican mayor. E. Stuart \Villiams was elected over George Russ. The Republicans also elected four out of five supervisors and three out of five aldermeu. ‘ _ ' Twenty-five Erie county towns have elected eighteen Democratic supervisors and seven Republican supervisors. This gives atotal Democratic majority in the board of supervisors of Erie county of eighteen, a gain of ten over last year. The Republicans scored a victory in Rochester. Samuel R. Williams was elect- ed city treasurer and John U. Schroth member of the executive board in the place of Democrats. The common council was changed from nine Democrats and seven Republicans to eleven Republicans and five Democrats.

DANA DI A N POLITICS. An Election Electing That Came Near ' Ending: in a. Riot. TORONTO, March 5.——There was an old time election meeting in west Toronto last evening which for a short time looked as if it might have ended in a riot. It was called in the interest of Mr. Arthur Mo- wat, Reform candidate for the house of commons, and during the early part¢6f the meeting, while Alderman Lindsay was speaking of the “loyalty” cry, a free fight took place in the rear of the hall. \Vith difficulty the police quelled the disturb- ance, but Sir Richard Cartwright, who followed the candidate, succeeded in quiet- ing the turbulent element, and made a vig- orous speech in defense of the loyalty of the ,‘Reform party. Sir Richard Cartwright was seen in re gard to the Crawford interview, from Win- nipeg, alleging that he had admitted that the reciprocity policy was only a. scheme for securing commercial union and ulti- mately annexation. Being asked regard- ing its truth, he denied that there was a word of truth in it, so far as he was con- cerned. He had never said anything of the kind. He claimed the matter was fabricated out of whole cloth. D. Porter, a Liberal, was elected to the provincial legislature yesterday for North Bruce. This is the second bye election lately which has resulted favorably to the Liberal party. The Catholic Interests.

In the assembly the house accepted a concurrent resolution authorizing the gov- ernor to collect for the legislature moneys appropriated by recent act of congress, under the act crediting and paying to states and territories all moneys collected under the direct tax levied by congress Aug. 5, 1861. ‘ A llIiné Flooded. MINERSVILLE, Pa., March 5.—The Otto colliery, which employs 300 men and boys, has been thrown idle by a rush of water into the mines. The water came from an old working while the men were engaged in drilling an eight inch hole, and rose so rapidly that the men had to leave the mines. It will be several weeks before op- erations can be resumed. Buenos Ayres Finances in a Bad Way. BUENOS AYRES, March 5.—The confer- ence between President Pellegrini and the managers of private banks was fruitless, the government’s request for monetary as- sistance not having been acceded to.
