WASILINOTON, April 19,.1889.
SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
The President pro tem submitted a
memorial of the American Emigration
Society of London, praying that amidst
ance be granted to persons who wish to
emigrate to the United Statba. The pa
' per had been sent to the Vice Prestaent
by the American Minister, at therequest
of its signers.
On motion of Mr. Rambo, it was tabled.
The President pro tem also submitted.
a petition of S. D. Sullivan for the re
moval of , his political disabilities, and it•
resolution of the Union League of Vb
ginia, entreating Congress to refuse all
applications for the removal of political
disabilities, unless such 'appliations
are endorsed by the regular ,Republican
o w rganizatlonties of the county In Which the
respectively reside. Referred to
Select Committee on Political disabilities.
In the Sena to. Mr. Chandler offered a
resolution that the President be directed
to open negodatiqns with Ragland for
the settlement of all open questions on
the basis of the surrender - of all the
British North Ameriesii poesessions to
the United States.
Mr. Chandler read a long extract from
his former
S peeches to show' that he ori
ginated the position now assumed by the
Committee on Foreign Relations, and in
' slated that if his advice bad been follow
ed heretoibre, the Alabama and all other
claiMa would net now remain unsettled.
bat that if the resolutions he offered,
looking to the withdrawal of our-Minis
ter and non-intercom se, had been adopt
ed, such claims would intve been. paid in
thirty days. ' • •
Mr. Chandler concluded as follows: The
resolution he had Offintd to-0y afforded
the only peaceful ipolution of our Onion
ties. We have had • treaty and treaty,
and rejected timut. This leads to irrita
tion. He uttered the same sentiments
now that he did two yearsemd aiialt ago.
He would have required a mortgage for
She amount tine.. The mortgage was re.
worded )utd the- security 4121srhil
lbsTedwasi had -Mate Aim- this tnietter
on a isroper basis. If Great -Brit
ain should meet us in n friend
ly spirit, acknowledge her wrong
and cede all her interests in
the Canadas in settlement ,- of these
claims, we will have perpetual race
with Great Britain But ifahe dries not,we
must conquer peace. We cannot afford
to have any enemy's bees so near to us.
It is a national necessity that we should
Lavish the British nesessiens.','He - hoped
that such a negotiation WOuld be opened,
and that it will be araceful one; but if
: it should not be, and England insists on
war, then let the war be short, sharp and
decisive. If war should came. he would
say now that the six hundred thousand
veterans 'of Michigan would take
the contract to capture the Cau
stic's in thirty days, without a manor -
from any other state. But there will
be no war. Great Britain does not deldre
liar with the United States. When our
Ministers abroad proclaimed this govern
ment overthrown, .bee'ause they were
nearly all in the interest of lleCellei•
Con, it was not wonderful that it was
so thought abroad.. France thought it
was time to make up an Empire from
the late United States. Great Britain
and France were in accord with the re
bellion. If the United States had been
overthrowtt the Empire would have
been established: but the United States
were not overthrown, and therefore the
Empire was not established. Upon . '
the Emperor Napoleon being informed
that the occupation of Mexico would lead
to war with one million men, he with
drew his army from Mexico. He had
staked the cause of the Empire on . the
success of the rebellion. Great Britain
staked her Empire on the sea. She
knew the rebellion must succeed, or she
must abandon the continent. In con
clusion Mr. Chandler expressed the
hope t hat the resolution would be putted.
Mr. Sumner moved the resolution be
referred to the Committee:on Foreign
Relations,
and it was so referred.
Mesars.Cole and Casserly denied hav
ing authorized the statement telegraphed
to the New York World,' that there would
be a called session of Congress. •- • -
Mr. Kellogg offered a resolution di
