Mr. VanWyck proseutod 11 batch of pM-
tlens from the Knights of Laber In favor et
land bills and the Oklahoma bill, and read a '
lolter from Ralph Hoaument, chairman of
the tegislattve cominllleo et Knights of
Laber, stating that tlie petitions wero genuine '
and that they weru expressly autherised wad
sanctioned by the general exocutlve beard of
the erder In the Unlted States. Three hun
dred thousand of theso patltlens, Mr. Van
Wyck said, had been prosentoil te Congress,
and as many mero wero en their way. The
great railroad presidents did net need any
petitions le lniluouce Congrets. Tliey came
thoniselves. One of thorn had only te knock
at Iho deer anil It was thrown open te him,
and Iminodlately, "Ilabiein" And If be
wanted tlme It was very cheerfully given.
The senater oxpressod himself In raver or the
pasaage or the bills asketl ler In the jiotltlena,
Mr. Sbermau (president pre tern.) caused
te be read the rule prohibiting discussion en
the presentation of petitions, nnd said If the
rules wero notebsorvod the busiiiess of the
morning hour could net be proceed ed with.
Mr. Legan felt that Mr. Van Wyckbad
cast certaln rotlccltens upon him. He bad
nover refused te present potitiena sent te
him, nnd all that he bad dene In the cajse of
these petitions was te call atlontieu le the
fact that the signatures appoaretl te be In the
same hand-writing. The senator from
Nebraska soemod te take advantagoef things
et that kind for the purpose el "boosting
hiiiiself " by characterizing ether senators In
a manner net very seemly.

After further femarks the Sonate pro
ceed ed te consideration of the I'ayne election
case.
Mr. Pugh advocated the position taken by
himself and Messrs. Saulsbury, Vance and
Lustis, te tbe eilect that thore had been no
expression of a bollef or suspicion en the
partet any moiuber of the committee that
Mr. Payne wasconnectetl In the remetest de-
gree by act or knowledgo with any wrong,
criminal or Immoral, In his eloctieu, and that
110 further investigation or the charge should
be made. He rev low ed the report sub
mitted by the minority and observod that no
ovldenco te warrant a;nmrtVicfi case and
an Inv estlgatlen bad been found ; that no
lraud which changed the result of the
tieu had been discovered. He roferredto"
the repert against an investigation made by
Messrs. I.vart, x,egau anil Teller, Republi
can members et the commltteo en privi
leges aud olectlons, as proof that no fraud
of material character was found.
Mr. Pugh thought It important that the
cemmittee solected by the Ohie Heuso of
Itopresentatlvet had failed, alter examining
evor fifty wltuosses and au Investigation ex
tending ev or three months, te llnd anything
which would warrant it in asking the
Senate of the Uulted States te order an In
vestigation, lu tlie consideration of the
case by the Sonate cemmittee en priv
ileges aud olectlons and Njie bearing
granted xarieus partiea bj- -IT7- "TuTd
in all the new matter presented, noth
ing was found that would constitute a
case against Mr. Payne or te show that the
general charges were true. All the 11 lth and
trash In the Democratic newspapers in Ohie,
going te show the means employed in the
electien of Payne, was laid bofero the Seuate
commltteo. It did net have, however, a
feather's weight aud only demonstrated the
feeling existing In the case en the part of
Keptlbllcans lu Ohie.
Air. Hear followed Mr. Pugh. He thought
nothing could concern the Senate mere than
the rules which govern ed the election et Its
members. It was lm)ertaut, tee, that the
states should knew who wero their lawful
and unsullied representatives In the United
States Senate. The Sounte In considering
this case should net confound cavil
and slauder with public opinions and facts.
Appeals irem pure poeplo were suulelent
weapons against slauder and malice. The
Mutaters must respect theso appeals, or lese
respect for themselves. Men who brlbe, men
who are accomplices te bribery and men who
are spectators te bribery, de net volunteer
testimony te It. Prevision must be made te
precure the testimony of unwilling witnesses.
The tostlmeny presented in the case asking
for au Investigation was such as would be re re
celved by any court of law. He denied
what the two reports of the committee
againstau Investigation Implled and aulrined, . ,j,
It was net material vvlieiueriue Benater was
