THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, SATURDAY 'EBRTJAR,T'"a5, 1890:
SLSLIP OF THE PEN
Causes Two Serious Errors iu Con
gressional Legislation.
OHE
PENSION MEASURE PASSED,
Which Had Been Adversely Reported by the
Senate Committee.
THE CAEELESS CLERKS IN THE HODSE
Eererely Dsnonnced by the Precise Slemlxn of the
Other Branch.
Owing to a mistake a pension bill, ad
versely reported, was passed by the Senate
yesterday. The error ras discovered, and
the measure reconsidered. The House clerks
were reprimanded for carelessness in another
instance. A large number of minor bills
passed the Senate.
"Washhtotoj.-, February 14. Two cleri
cal errors were discovered in the Senate to
day which show bow such mistakes may
have a very important bearing upon legis
lation. One of the pension bills (for a man
named David Peterson) having been passed
without discussion with the usual rapidity
of procedure, Mr. Cockrell subsequently
inquired what had been done with it, and
having been informed by the Vice Presi
dent that the bill bad been passed, he said
that it was a remarkable circumstance that
the bill appeared on the calendar as being
favorably reported; whereas, the lact was
that the report was an adverse one, with the
recommendation that tho bill be indefinitely
postponed.
A SUDDEtf CHANGE.
The report was read, and it showed that
Mr. Cockrell's statement was correct The
action of the Senate in passing the bill was
therefore reconsidered, and the bill was in
definitely postponed.
This was not the only instance. Mr. West
offered a concurrent resolution to amend an
error in the enrollment of the Senate joint
resolution for the removal of obstructions to
navigation in the Mississippi river. The
error had been committed by one of the
clerks of the House, and consisted in the
omission after the word "Eesolved," of the
words "by the Senate and House ot Repre
sentatives of the United States o! America
in Co nereis assembled."
Mr. Incalls commented severely npon the
blunder, speaking of it as a case of "legis
lation being tampered with by inefficient
clerks." He was opposed to the repetition
of such disgraceful performances. He
moved (instead of Mr. West's concurrent
resolution) that the joint resolution in ques
tion be returned to the House of Bepresen
tatives,with the request that the House send
to the Senate a copv correctly engrossed, as
it bad passed that body.
THE HOUSE EETBIMA1TDED.
He remarked that that was the way to get
rid of the difficulty, and to admonish the
House and its clerks and employes that
there must be more care, more scrutiny and
more attention paid to such matters. Mr.
Vest assented to that disposal ot the matter,
and remarked that the Honse had changed
all its clerical force, and now bad a lot of
new men who knew nothing about their
business. Mr. Iugalls' motion was agreed to.
Mr. Sherman's resolution, offered yester
day, to proceed to-day, after the morning
business, to the consideration of bills on the
calendar under rule 8, was agreed to. House
bill for the relief of the sufferers by the
wreck of the United States steamers Trenton
and Yandalia and the stranding of the
United States steamer Kipsic, at Apia,
Samoan Islands, was passed. A bill appro
priating $25,000 for the relief of the Sioux
Indians at Devil's Lake Agency, North
Dakota, was passed.
ANT UUJIBEE OP HEASUBES.
The following bills on tbe calendar were
passed: Providing for an Assistant Secre
tary of War (with a salary of 55,000); for
the construction of a bridge across the St.
Croix river; to authorize the construction of
two bridges across Boeut river, Louisiana;

NOW IN THE HOUSE.
The World's Fair Committee Has FInnllT
Made Its Report The Method
Proposed br Which to
Cboose'tbe Site.
WASHnfGTON.February 14. The House
Committee on World's Fair to-day reported
upon the various measures referred to it. In
the report Chairman Candler says:
Tbe bills which were referred to tbe commit
tee for their consideration, proposed different
locations, and In the judgment nf tbe commit
tee, it was not practical to present one bill
covering all tbe localities. They therefore beg
leave to submit tbe two accompanying bills as
substitutes for the bills referred to it These
two bills are entitled: A bill to provide for
celebrating the four hundredth anniversary
of the discovery of America by Christopher Co
lumbus by holding an international exhibition
of arts, industries, manufactures and the
product of the soil, mine and sea, in the city of
, in the year 1892, and a bill to provide for
celebrating the four hundredth anniversary of
the discovery of America by Christopher Co
lumbus by holding an International exhibition
of arts, industries, manufactures and tho
products of the soil, mine and sea, at the Na
tional csmitai in 1R93 tho first of which is in
tended to comprehend all that will be required
to successfully organize a World's Fair in
either New York; Chicago or St. Louis, and to
which such amendments as' details could be
made, as the city selei ted may require, while
tbe second bill contemplates the selection of
Washington as the site of tbe proposed fair,
and is likewise intended to meet all that is re
quired for its successful location in that city.
The selection of the city in which the ex
hibition is to be held is left to the decision
of the House of Representatives and the fol
lowing resolution is submitted as an equi
table method of procedure in the choice of
the same:
Resolved, That on the day following tho close
of the debate upon bills reported by this com
mittee. Immediately after tbe reading of the
journal, tbe Clerk shall call the roll of mem
bers, and that as each member's name is called
he ahall indicate viva voce bis choice of the
place for holdinc the World's Fair In 1892. If
no place receives a majority of the votes cast.
on tbe first ballot, the roll call shall be repeated
until some one place shall have received a ma
jority of all the votes cast.
The report then concludes with the fol
lowing expression of sentiment upon the
general project of a World's Fair:
For years the people of the United States in
great numbers, with enthusiasm and unanim
ity, in various ways, by petitions, resolutions,
in the public press and throueh their represent
atives in Congress have signified their earnest
desire that the 400th anniversary of tbe discov
ery of America by Christopher Columbus
should be recognized and commemorated by
this nation in 1892. Ihey would have this gen
eration record its grateful appreciation of the
genius and the courageous faith of this great
man, whose life and services contributed so
much to the progress and elevation of man
kind, and the people of this country and
tbe nations of the world should be Invited to
participate to the grandeur of tbe celebration.

FOE THE ARM! HURSES.
Senator Davie Introduces a Bill Intended to
Increase Pensions.
Washington, February 14. Senator
Davis to-day introduced a bill providing for
the pensioning, at the rate of $25 a month
from March 4, 1889, of all women who were
army nurses during the late war, and who
rendered six months' services in camp on
the field or in the general hospitals. Women
who now receive pensions as army nurses at
a rate less than $25 a month shall have their
pensions increased to that amount.
The bill also provides that those who now
receive pensions as the widows or dependent
mothers of soldiers, who would be entitled
to the benefits of this bill, may also receive
$25 a month during life as an increase of
their present pension.
1HP0ETAKT PENSIO.v MEASURES.
Two Bill Passed br thr Senate That Will
Have a General Effect.
Washington, February 14. Two pen
sion bills of importance passed the Senate
to-day. The first repeals the sections of the
Bevised Statutes which require that the
claim for pension by a State militiaman for
disability incurred while temporarily on
duty must be filed before July, 1874.
The other provides that oaths required in
pension or bounty cases, may be taken be
fore any officer authorized to administer
oaths for general purposes.

WoniauGMEK' you know what damage
corrupt ring has done to the glass industry.
They drove Sellers McKee and Chambers,
McKee & Co. to Jeannetteand several other
factories to the Monongabela and Ohio Val
ley to escape high taxes. Gourley was their
pliant tool and servile creature many years
in Councils when valuations and taxes were
increased; All the glass industries will be
driven out of Pittsburg if this corrupt ring
elects its candidate for Mayor. If you want
to remain in Pittsburg keep up tbe associa
tions of youtb, not break your family ties
by being compelled to remove from Pitts
burg by high taxation and corrupt govern
ment, Vote for Judge Bailey.

TO DEFEND IHE PACIFIC.
Adequate Canst Defense and a Gun Foun
dry Are Badly Needed.
Washington, February 14. The Sen
ate Committee on Coast Defenses had before
it to-day General Miles, commander of the
Division of the Pacific, and General Benet,
Chief of Ordnance, who gave their views
upon some matters in connection with the
subject of coast defenses. General Mjles
said that the ports of Puget Sound, the
mouth of the Columbia river, San Francisco
ana San Diego ought to be protected. He
Bald that the recommendations of the Board
01 xonincauons ana otner defenses, if car
ried out, would be sufficient. One of the
recommendations ot that board was that a
gun factory be established on the Pacific
coast.
General Benet gave the committee figures
on the cost of transportation to the Pacific
coast, by land and water routes. He said
that inasmuch as one-tnird of all the guns
required to carry out the scheme proposed
by the Board of Fortifications and other de
fenses, would be mounted on the Pacific
coast, the establishment of a gun foundry
there would be a matter of economy in case
the board's recommendations are adopted.

condition of the men, women and children

I5DIAH LANDS IN DANGER.
Town Site Boomer Are Moving- on the Ter.
rltory Ceded to the Red Men.
Washington, February 14. The Secre
tary of the Interior has received from In
dian Inspector Armstrong at Chamberlain,
8, D., a telegram in which he says that
town site locators and settlers are trespass
ing cion "surveyed homestead lands occn
pied'by Indians in the newly ceded terri
tory, and that the Indians have asked to
be protected in their rights, as was prom
ished. The Inspector says that if tbe town
site squatters are removed no trouble will
result, but otherwise he fears that conflict
between the whites and tbe Indians may
occur.
Beports of great excitement in the new
territory, he says, are exaggerated. In re
sponse Secretary Noble has instructed the
Inspector to cotily all persons interfering
with Indian lands that they must remove
therefrom; that it has been ordered that bo

SEAL SKINS
in that advertisement Many
of these have been sold (not
half of them), but it is sur
prising how many "we have
sold during the past three
days.
This proves conclusively
that in this age fine quality
and low prices, prices that are
SO MUCH
under real values, will bring
buyers for rich and eligant
garments, as staple as . Seal
Skins are, even when the sea
son is considered over.
These Seal Skins were pur
chased at almost a
SACRIFICE
PRICE
from one of the best, if not
the best, houses in America.
Were these Seal Skins of
their lowest grade we should
not have made the purchase,
but, on the contrary, being of
their
FINEST
and
BEST
we regard this as one of the
GREATEST
BARGAIN
PURCHASES
WE
HAVE
EVER
MADE
and if you want to buy a
FINE
SEAL SKIN
