[CLOSE OF TESTERDA.Y'S PE.OOEEDINOS.]
HorsE.—Mr. Wrishburne (Ill.) offered a
Tesolution. which was adopted, requesting
the Paymaster-General of the Army to fur
nish the House with the names of all pay
ii asters or additional paymasters against
whom stoppages are now standing, and the
nature and cause of the same.
I Mr. Farnsworth (Ill.)moved to reconsider
the vote by which the resolution was adopted,
on the ground that it would be a great in
justice to drag before the public the names
of paymasters having stoppages against
them, most of which were owing tothe con
fusion of orders,
Mr. Stevens (Pa.) added that paymasters'
sccounts were only settled down to within
three years of this time, and in the mean
time the whole balance was charged against
them.
Mr. Schenck (Ohio) suggested that the
publication of the facts would alarm the
'bondsmen of these paymasters, and a gene
ral panic would be created while accounts
were not actually settled.
Mr. Washburne (Ind.) stated that there
was a bill pending for the relief of paymas
ters, and the House should have the infor
mation called for in the resolution, so as to
be able to act understandingly on the bill.
A memorial from these paymasters was
laid this morning on the desks of members,
in which it was stated that they had no ac
cess to the records.
Mr. Garfield (Ohio) regarded it as an un
precedented proposition to drag up a long
list of unsettled. unadjudicated accounts
The effect would be to alarm the bondsmen o
paymasters without sufficient cause.
Mr. Schenck said that the Military Com
mittee had not gone prying into individual
accounts, and if the Committee had hial the
information it would not have felt justified
in spreading it before the House in de
bate, as the accounts had only been par
ttally settled.-
The vote adopting the resolution was re
considered, and the question referred on the
adoption of the resolution.
Mr. Wentworth (Ill.) thought it right that
the House should know the circumstances
under which it was asked to pass a bill for
-the relief of these paymasters. He found on
Ins desk a pamphlet calling on the House for
immediate action, now or never, and he
thought these paymasters should be willing
to trust the House.
Mr. Chanler (N. Y.) rose for information.
Mr. Wentworth said he would yield to
the Chairman of the Committee on Military
.Affairs, who was the only person capable of
giving information on this subject.
Mr. Schenck (Ohio) declared that it was
.an entire mistake to suppose that the bill
for the relief of paymasters had been
brought forward under an organized solici
tation of the paymasters. Petitions on the
subject had been referred to the Committee
on Military Affairs, involving necessarily
an inquiry into the whole matter. The first
impression of the Committee was rather
against the idea of affording relief, but the
more the Committee looked into the matter
the more it became satisfied that it was a
meritorious case.
Mr. Wentworth (El.) repeated his unwil
lingness to legislate without official infor
mation. He would like to hear the views
of the Chairman of the Committee on Claims
on the subject.
Mr. Delano (Ohio), Chairman of the Com
mittee on Claims, stated that the measure
as proposed by the Committee on Military
Affairs would take two and a half millions
oif dollars out of the Treasury. The sums
disbursed by army paymasters during the
war amounted to one thousand and twenty
eight millions.
Mr. Schenck explained that the allowance
was limited to a thousand dollars per year
for each paymaster.
Mr. Delanojadmitted that that would take
away some of the serious objections to the
bill as originally presented. He thought,
however, that if a measure of relief was to
be passed for any class of army officers
quite as meritorious a class as that of pay
masters could be selected. Yesterday the
House had passed a bill giving over seven
millions of dollars to the State of Missouri.
Some days before it had appropriated eight
hundred thousann dollars for Pennsylva
nia. The claims of the States for money
paid for bounties, iSro„ would reach six or
seven hundred millions of dollars, and the
claims for the equalization of bounties would
amount to an equal sum. He thought Con
gress should wait till a report was made to
it, showing the condition of the accounts of
these paymasters, and thus Congress could
give to honest and faithful paymasters all
the relief they needed.
Mr. Wentworth (Ill.) was willing that the
bill should be recommitted to the Commit
mittee on Military Affairs, but would pre
fer its reference to the Committee of Claims,
in whose chairman (Mr. Delano) he had
great confidence, as he understood the Pre
sident also had. [Laughter.]
Mr. Washburne (Ind.) said he had intro
duced the resolution in good faith, and sup
posed that the paymasters and those who
- represented them on this floor wished for
the information asked for.
After further discussion, the resolution
vas referred to the Committee on Military
_Affairs.
The bill for the relief of paymasters of the
army, which was under discussion in the
morning hour yesterday, came up as the
next business in order.
Mr. Conkling (N. Y.) moved the follow
ing as a substitute for the bill: That the
proper accounting officers of the Treasury
be and they are hereby authorized and di
rected in the settlement of accounts of pay
masters and additional paymasters of the
army for disbursements made by them
during the recent war for the suppression
of the rebellion, to allow and credit to such
paymasters all sums which they may have
paid on erroneous muster rolls which they
had no means or opportunity to verify pre
vious to payment thereon, evidences of
which lack of means or opportunity shall
be furnished, according to such rules and
regulations as shall be prescribed by such
accounting officers.
After some discussion the bill, with the
pending amendments, was recommitted to
the Committee on Military Affairs.
Mr. Rice (Me.) from the Committee on
Territories, reported back the joint resolu
tion to facilitate communication with the
territories of New Mexico, Arizona and
Colorado. The joint resolution provides
that whenever any loyal citizen of the
United States shall !make and establish an
arlesian well on the line of any mail route
in New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, or the
-Colorado desert of California, at least ten
miles distant from any spring or stream of
living water on such route, he shall be en
titled to one section of the public lands em
bracing such well, to be marked out and
designated in a compact:form.
Mr. Rice (Me.) explained the object of the
_joint resolution.
Mr. Washburne (Ill.) said it seemed to
him as if there was a cat under the meal
tub. If the gentleman from Maine would
trace this thing to its inception, he would
:find that it came from some speculators,
who wanted to get some town sites. It was
most injurious plan, by which 640 acres
would be taked from the public lands, and
the title given to some person for doing
what he would be likely to do any way,
opening au artesian well. There were no
proper guards or limitations to the bill.
Mr. Rice stated that the bill -originated
with the Commissioner of the General Land
-Office, as an inducement to persons to open
wells and supply cool water to travelers
over these deserts, a similar joint resolution
bad passed the House last session, and had
failed in the Senate for want of time. The
gentleman from • Illinois bad made a charge
against the Commissioner of the General
Land Office.
Mr. Washburn (Ill.), disclaimed doing
so. Nothing in his remarks could bear that
construction.
Mr. Rice (Me.) said that the gentleman
from Illinois had spoken of "the, oat under
the meal tub" in this bill. That gentleman
very properly considered it his duty to look
after all the interests of this broad land, and
particularly every interest which did not
originate with him or his committee. He
found no fault with him for that. He knew
the great value of his services to the coun
try. But this joint resolution had been re
ported unanimously by the Committee on
Territories, last session and this, and was
regarded as important for the development
of those territories.
Mr. Washburne (Ill.) declared he had not
intended any imputation on the Commis
sioner of the General Land Oflice, to whose
ability and integrity he was glad to bear
testimony.
At the suggestion of Mr. Conkling, Mr.
Rice (Me.) moved an, amendment to except
municipal lands from the lands to be so
conveyed.
The amendment was agreed to.
Mr. Wright suggested that this was one of
the gift enterprises that were afloat.
Mr. Rice (Me.) denied that, and defended
the general purposes of the joint resolit
lion.
Mr. Conkling suggested that if this be
came a law, persons connected with artesian:
wells and who had received a full section of
land, might also, under the homestead law
take up a quarter section. He subsequently
moved an amendment to provide against
that.
Mr. Wright remarked that this well was
a great bore. The Senate had had up yes
terday the whisky question and now the
water question was up in this ,House. He
should be satisfied if both took the same di
rection.
Mr. Chanler (N. Y.) asked whether the
gentleman from Maine had considered the
effect of this measure on the revenue de
rived from whisky? That gentleman's sec
tion consumed nothing but whisky, stimu
lated by a little ice. [Laughter.] The
development of the Maine Liquor law was
not necessary in the West. Ile hoped the
gentleman would offer an amendment, to
allow distilleries there, so that the principle
of cold water and pure spirit might march
across the continent, and show which was
the basis of virtue. The people of the West
were unaccustomed to the use of water as a
beverage,and it was a well known fact that,
between the questions of water and whisky,
the West was a unit to-day, against water.
[Laughter.] He asked the gentleman
from Illinois (Mr. Wentworth) whether he
would support whisky against cold water.
Mr. Wentworth protested that he was for
cold water all the time, and
Mr. Paine (Wis.) suggested that there
should be a provision in the joint resolution
requiring water to be furnished from these
wells graitui tously.
Mr. Rice (Me.) suggested that that matter
would be in the charge of the Commissioner
of the General Land Office.
After further discussion the joint resolu
tion, with amendments, was ordered to be
printed and recommitted.
Mr. Rice (Me.), from the same Committee,
reported back adversely the memorial of
the Legislative Assembly of Arizona, asking
that the tract of land in the bend of die Colo
rado be attached to Arizona, and the Com
mittee was discharged from its further con
sideration.-
Mr. Marvin (N. Y.), from the same Com
mittee, reported back adversely the memo
rial of the Governor and Legislature of the
Territory of Utah for an appropriation for
the construction of roads in that Territory.
Laid on the table.
Mr. Moulton (Ill.), from the same Com
mittee, reported back a bill appropriating
ten thousand dollars for the survey of the
boundary between the Territory of Idaho
and the State of Oregon, which, on objection
being made by Mr. Stevens, was referred to
the Committee of the Whole on the State of
the Union.
Mr. Starr (N. J.), from the same Commit
tee, reported back adversely the memorial
of the Legislature of Utah, for an appropria
tion'for a library at Salt Lake City. Laid
on the table.
• Mr. Hill (Ind.), from the same Commit
tee, reported back adversely the memorial
of the Legislature of Dacotah, for an appro
priation to codify the laws of Dacotah Ter
ritory. Laid on the table,
The morning hour having expired,
Mr. Darling (N. Y.) presented the memo
rial of brewers in the United States for the
reduction of the duty on barley to five cents
a bushel.
Mr. Washburne (Ill.), from the Commit
tee of Conference on the bill authorizing the
sale of the Maine hospitals and revenue cut
ters, made a report and stated its substance.
The Senate had amended the House bill by
a provision limiting the number of hospi
tals to which the bill should apply. The
Senate now receded from that amendment,
and agreed to an amendment merely pro
viding that the hospitals at Cleveland,Ohio,
and at Portland, Me., should not be sold or
leased.
The report was agreed to.
The House then, on motion?pf Mr: Went
worth, proceeded to the bhsiness of the
Speaker's table, and took up the concurrent
resolution passed by the Senate yesterday,
prohibiting the sale of spirituous and other
liquors in the capitol building and grounds.
Mr. Stevens inquired, with an' affectation
of gravity, whether this was such a resolu
tion as would require the signature of the
_
President. [Laughter.]
Mr. Wentworth replied that it was not,
and he called for the reading of a joint rule
of the two Houses, directing that no spiritu
ous liquors shall be offered or exhibited
within the capitol or public grounds adja
cent thereto. That rule he said was adopted
'in 1837, and had been rigidly enforced by
the presiding office of .the 'House all the
time. [Laughter.] He had frequently been
in the Senate and wondered that the presi
ding officer of that body had not enforced
the rule. It seemed that it would be better
if that body had the presiding officer and
some of the members of this body. [Laugh
ter.] He moved to amend the concurrent
resolution, by making it apply also to all
the public buildings or grounds of the city
of Washington.
Mr. Schenck (Ohio) said he noticed that
the term "exhibited" was used in the rule,
and wished to know in what sense it was
employed.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.) suggested that it meant
the exhibition of members with liquor in
them. [Laughter.]
Mr. Wentworth said he so under
stood it.
Mr. Randall (Pa.) said that action on the
part of the House was entirely unnecessary,
as the Speaker permitted no violation of the
rule and had rooted out all those "holes in
the wall," and the House had subsequently
approved of his action in that respect. He
thought, therefore, that the resolution had
better be returned to the Senate, where,
perhaps, there was a necessity for its adop
tion.
Mr. Washburn (l 11.) suggested that it
ehould be amended so as to make it a joint
instead of a concurrent resolution.
Mr. Stevens remarked that he knew what
the gentleman from Illinois .was about. He
wanted to kill the measure by making it
require the signature of the President.
The Speaker stated that it could not so
be amended.
Mr. Chandler suggested that it should not
be made to apply to all the public buildingh
for spirituous liquor was much used in the
Smithsonian Institute for the preservation
of animals. Besides, it was known as a
specificifor the bite of the Copperheads, which
seemed to have so much terror for some pm
ple. [Laughter.]
Charges had r n een made against members
not only of intemperance in the use of li
quor, but of intemperance from lust, and he
thought the principle of the resolution
should he carried out so as to have a physi.
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN ; PHILADELPHIA, FRIDA?, APRIL 13, 1866.
cian's inquiry as to the habits of members
in public buildings. He thought it unfair
to use public prejudice against liquor for the
purpose of keeping down genial excitement
and good fellowship, which he knew the
gentleman from Illinois never intended.
Mr. Thayer (Pa.) remarked that during
t
his service in the house he h d seen no indi
cations of any necessity fo the adoption of
the concurrent resolution. e had read the
debate which took place in ! the Senate yes
terday, and was led to believe, from some
of the sentiments there expressed, that the
passage of the resolution might be necessary
to preserve the decorum, dignity, and self
possession which should characterize a body
so venerated as that: He had observed, for
exapple( that one member of that distin
guighed body had concluded a long oration
in defence of drunkenness with this senti
ment, "I believe in women, wine, whisky,
and war." [Laughter.] He did not think
that either of these articles should be thrown
unnecessarily in the way of a gentleman
holding such sentiments, and, therefore, he
hoped the concurrent resolution would
pass.
After some further discussion,the amend
ment offered by Mr. Wentworth was agreed
to, and the concurrent resolution, as amend
ed, was adopted. J.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.), from the Committee on
- Appropriations, reported back Senate joint
resolutions for the transfer of funds appro
priated for the payment of salaries in the
Post Office Department to the general salary
account of that Department, with an amend
ment, providing that it should not be con
strued to increase the appropriations al
ready made for the service of the Post Office
Department. The amendment was agreed
to and the joint resolution was passed.
Mr. Stevens, from the same Committee,
also reported back the Senate joint resolu-•
tion authorizing The Secretary of the Trea
sury to adjust the claims of Beals dr, Dixon
against the United States, which, on motion
of Mr.Washburne (Ill.), was to the
Committee on Claims.
The Senate bill making an additional
grant of funds to tne State of Minnesota in
alternate sections, to aid in the construction
of a railroad in said State, was taken from
the Speaker's table, read twice, and referred
to the Committee on Public Lands.
The Senate bill to authorize the Secretary
of War to settle claims of the State of Kan-
Fas for services of the militia called out by
the Governor of the State on the requisition
of Major General Curtis, commander of the
"United States forces in that State, was taken
from the Speaker's tabje, read twice, and
referred to the Committee on Military
Affairs.
The next business in order was the Senate
bill appropriating $25,600 for the temporary
relief of destitute people in the Distriat of
Columbia, to be expended under the direc
tion of the Commissioner of the Freedmen's
Bureau.
Mr. Ingersoll (IR.) moved the previous
question.
Mr. Rogers (N. Y.) wished it amended so
as to read "without distinction of race or
color."
Mr. Ingersoll replied that that was un
occessary as no class legislation was ner
milted.
Mr. Rogers then wanted the distribution
of the money to be left with the municipal
authorities of Washington.
Mr. Ingersoll declined to agree to that.
Mr. Shanklin (Ky.) rose to discuss the
merits of the bill, but Mr. Ingersoll insisted
c,n the previous question.
The House seconded the previous question
and passed the bill by a vote of 100 to 21.
Here a message was received from the
Senate, announcing that after listening to
the eulogies.of the character and public
services of Senator Foot, lately deceased, it
bad, out of respect to his memory, voted to
adjourn.
Messrs. Woodbridge, Banks, Washburne
(Ill.), Dawson, Grinnell and Morrill spoke
in eulogy of the late Senator Foot. The
House then, as a mark of respect, ad
journed.
