Recerd.
"Mr. Chairman, my disposition en tbls oc
casion would naturally be te seek te promote
geed feeling and harmony here, an tbit tb
legislation before tb Heuio tnlgut be prop
erly and promptly considered, but there art)
tew fact which 1 think it desirable te state.
Fer a long time past the committee en appre
prlatlen ha been criticised at te tba meas
ure It ha reported. It ba grown te be the
faahlen for tbe friend of Knd!ug legislation,
wbleb ha failed te make a successful transit
through the twolieusesof Congress, te charge
Ita failure upon the committee en appropri
ations, and te nay that tbat committee ha
done this, that, or the ethr Improper thing I
and a part of my lime during this session of
Congress baa been taken tip In answering
the letter of gentlemeu In different Motion
of tbe country te whom enrae parson or per per
en of course 1 de net say any member of
tbls Heuse have been kind enough te stale
tbat the reason why their partleular measure
could net be passed waa aeine action of tbe
committee en appropriation It 1 always
very pleasant te have some one else te blame
rather than ene'a self, but 1 propose te
show the Heuse tbst tbe members et the
committee en appropriation de net deserve
the criticism tbat has been made upon them.
Under nn order of this Heuse 1 Invited
member or that committee te meet here en
tbe 22i or November last, with a view te
having the appropriation bills ready In geed
time. I am net going tessy whether gentle
men en theothereide responded wltb alacrity
te that Invitation or net, but 1 will say that
there were one or two exceptions that did
stand nut In bold rcllet. The committee went
te work and prepared the sundry civil ap
propriation bill, reported Hand had It passed
through this Heuse en the 10-h day el Decem
ber, alter nearly a week'a dltouaslen. Sucb
a tblng bad net been deue for years certainly
net during my pwrlml or aervlce covering a
a quarter nfacnutury. Tbat bill went te tbe
Senate. The Senate retained It for ferty-alx
day., and seut It back here en the 3rd day of
February.
1 seiuht Immediately te htve amend
me its nl the Senate non-concurred In se that
lime might lie aaved and the bill go Imme
diately tee liferents But the ether side ob
jected, and required the commitment of tbe
hill te the committee en appropriations.
When Itomeheck from ttut committee I be be
eeught this Heuse (and It agreed te the re
quest) te take the bill up out of tbe order In
which It appeared upon the calendar, se that
It might be returned promptly te the Senate.
Tbe Heu.k, hewetitr, retused te aave time
and censldur I'. In the lletue. We bave been
In conference siveral tlmea en tbat bill, the
controversy between the two Ilemna being
as te four million, of expropriations for vari
ous object.
" Next, as te the fortlnjatlen bill. The fertl
flcatien bill repertiMl last j ear Is new In con
ference; and when reported from tbe con for-eneecommltUi-e,
it will be In such a shape, I
hope, as te take the place of the bill for this
yearatlait year. We ham given dlllgent
attention te this subject of armament; for
you must knew, Mr. Chairman, that there 1
no end te the scheme and plans or this sub
ject; they are of every kind, and tbe amounts
asked for vary from 15,000.000 te $76,000,000.
Tbe pension appropriation bill baa been
passed. It is true there I yet te be paused
another pension bill that providing for pen
sions te soldiers of tbe Mexican war; but
It will be remembered that the bill calling
for theae pensions has only recently become
a law.
"The District of Columbia appropriation
bill awaits Anal action In conference. Tbe
conferee are contending as te an enormous
Increase by the Senate, approaching eue-bnlf
million of dellarn In conuectlen with tbe gov
ernment of tbis ill. trie, meat of this sum Ib
lug for the llng out of suburban streets and
avenue. InUmdud te add value te tbe real
estate of property beliler. Such procedure
will necewltattt Urge sdditlenal appropria
tion. Tnia Is what tbe Uou.e conlarreee are
contending against.
11 Tbe pjstolllce approprUtlen bill Is in
conference, there being a struggle between
tbe two Houses aa te a subeldy, or wbat some
et uacbaracterlzaas auch.
Aa te the deficiency appropriation bill,
that has beeu reported te this Heuse as early
as usual. Metnbers understand that we
bave te delay the completion of this bill for
the reaseu that we are In receipt almost
dally of new estimates having application te
tbat bill. 1 he deficiency bill la net behind,
and I bope It will rind n speedy passage
through this Heuse, unless theie people
wbe want te secure approprlatlena In behalf
of l'Acitle railroad claims and etbei claim of
that eliaracter sbsll prevent Its an 1ft transit.
We may be required te seek a au.penstea of
tbe rules.
" Lit us oe hew matters stand as te this
legist dive appropriation bill new under con
sideration. It has been In this Heuse, re
ported from the commltteeen appropriations,
for nearly a month. Is It the fault of tbe
oenimlttvo that It has net been taken up 7
Ne, sir ; It Is tbe fault or tbls Heuse. If tbe
Heuse bed been willing It could bave been
takeu up many days age. The appeal ba
been frequently made te members or this
Heuse en all aide te take It up.
One mere point An ellert lias been
made te belittle this Ueuae, aud especially
this aide et the Heuse, lu connection with
legislation. While there bave lieen omis emis
sions or legislation lu some direction, taken
as a whole In lta scope or legislation, this
Heuse stands in most favorable light a com
pared wltb past Congresses. It ba placed
upon tbe atatute book mere useful legisla
tion than I bave ever known te be passed
during any single session of Congress since
I have beeu a member.
"It will net de for tbe ether aide te under
take te cast odium upon tbls aide of Ibe
Heuse In that partleular. Tbls aide Is, in my
Judgment, te be commended by the people
for its record In connection with straightfor
ward, clean, useful legislation, looking te
promoting the best interests et the American
people."

Ripreeenlatives of the Erie pests were pres

Burkert's charges were read and differed
materially from these first published In the
papers. They were In substance a fellow :
That the bread was bad, meat and flab
tainted, butter rancid and meats scanty ;
tbat vegetables were dlsbed up without sea
soning ; that the alck receive d peer and un
suitable diet; that disabled soldiers were
brutally treated ; that Jehn Russell, Albert

their crutchea taken away and were com
pelled te labor ; that James Dobseo, the cob ceb
le r was denied remuneration because he
was a Democrat ; tbat David Rbelnhard, el
Reading, and Ueerge Cochran, of Pittsburg,
weak-minded inen, were sworn In as special
ofllears by the mayor and that tbey abused
Inmates; that the night dispenser of modi medi
cine was Imbecile ; that tbe non-cemmls.
sinned ollleera wereinebrlateand were cruel.
Burkert's charges were sworn te, but be,
notwithstanding the fact tbat transportation
had been furnished, declined te appear.
Four of the wltneaaes Burkert mentioned in
hi. charges took the maud and refuted the
allegations in tote. The special officers de
monstrated en the stand tbat tbey were men
of mere than average intelligence. Leula
Cook, tbe consumptive, whom Burkert
alleged was confined in the engine
room, swore tbst he went there of
bis own free will, and that be only
left tbe pest when cempelled te de se
by Commander Tyson, who bad always
treated him kindly. Jam&i Dabsnn, tbe
Desaocratle cobbler, swore that the table
waa better than the average bearding beuse
fare, and that tainted fish were served but
twice and then by mistake of tbe cook. He
gave Burkert's charges a clear denial.
The luveattgatlen will be continued. It Is
Intimated that a plot will be exposed, show

secure Commander Tyson's removal.
