Mr. WILSON offered • resolution for

Referred to Committee on Public Build

The currency bill was Liken up, and
Mr. BOWE reviewed the various propo
eitfons stiggeatiM by the Senators who
had smokers In the discussion. The Ben.
ator from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) believed
145,000,000 of an Increase to be sufficient.
The Senator from Indiana (Mr, Morton)
thought- $65,000,000 would be enough.
and cue Senator from Massechusitta be
lieved 5200,000.000 would be about right.
Re might pertinently ask each of the
Senators. why did they stop at these
amounts? How did they know these
would be all that were neceisar)? Why
not take off ail restrictions and let the
people waste ell the money they
wanted to invest in banking? Our
currency would not be endanger
ed, If care was taken that one
class of pisper 'should be retired as
fast as another came Into use. The ob.
jaCtlol2 to sills was based upon the sup
plaid= that the people would prefor
National note, to bank note., but the
answer to that was, that the good-sense
of the people would give preference to
the beat circulation. and that, would be
the one most readily convertible into
coin. If this object coUld net at once he
accomplished, Congress Should et least
Wart out on the road tbatoirould reach to
It. As a western man, he asked that
the west should have the bulking
facilities which they needed, nod of
which they 'wine deprived by the
present grossly unequal distribution.
Mr. SA WYEM said he would favor the
bill as propped to be amended by Mr.
Morton, increasing the volume of cir
culatten beyond that proposed by the
Committee. He advised prudence and
caution, so that business interests might
not be disturbed. '
Mr MORRILL (Vt.) favored tbeprop
°video of the Finance Committee, end
explelned the circumstances under
which the prevent evident of distribution
had been adopted, claiming it bad been
put in operation as • war measure, and
that the west at the time declined to
avail itself of It, while the south, in con
sequence of the rebellion. could not. Ile
thought the banks of the loyal States
should not suffer because of their support
of the Government.
Mr. MORTON 'advocated the bill as
proposed to be modltled, to authorize
502,000,f00 additional and taking $i3,000,
000 when accessary from the excess of
the north and east.' He opposed the pro
vision In regard to min notes, I:eliciting
that if the banks' were established oa
the basis proposed, they would ho used
for gold gambling purposes.
.Mr. Morton quoted from statistics to
show the disparity In National circula
tion, establishing the fact that the west
ern cities, with a united population of
1,...N10,000, have but ii 8,84000 altogether,
while the Eutem cities, with a copula•
tion of 12.250,000, have 5130,9410,000, show
ing that the great States of She west
needed to have more than double their
present circulation. Referring farther
to the Facile Eitlit6l4 he said haancially
they had not been friends to the credit
of the United States, having uniformly
rejected our currency and preferred to
adhere to gold and silver.
Mr. CASSERLY explained that the
Constitution of California before the war
prohibited paper currency, and said tills
was not in consequence of any unfriend
ly feeling to the United States. -
Mr. PATTERSON said New England
had been made the Scene goat in the
present discussion, but the National
Bank circulation bad been forced upon
her. She had done her duty to the Gov
an:anent tinder compulsion, and the
gentlemen from the south and west
row ought not to complain because,
though New England had the lion's
share of capital, abo took it under cora

VlrFinia members in to whose righl
seats there wan no objection should now
be sworn Ir.
Messrs. Platt, Ridgeway and Maxim
thereupon came forward and took the
'oath of office..
Mr. WOOD objected to the oath being
administered to Mr. Porter, and read as
the ground of his objection charges and
specifications upon which Porter had
been convicted and sentenced to Mx
months imprisonment, which sentence
was approved by ?d.j. Gen. Maier; that
Porter was eciiveted of declaring pato.
hely in a tavern at Norfolk that this
government "was a God d—d humbug,
from beginning to end: that Abraham
Lincoln was doing everything he could
for his own election, and that this was a
rotten, bogus, corrupt government from
- beginning to end."
Mr. PAINE, in answer,
sent to the
Clerk's desk and had read a telegram
from Gen. Butler, dated May Gth, 1888,
stating that Chas. H. Porter in a heated
discussion had used words which being
reported to him he was obliged to notice.
He had, however, omitted all the oner
ous part of the Judgment of the Commis.
elan, because the case and Ms previous
acts showed that Porter had not in fact

whether Porter had ever taken back the
expressions charged against him?
Mr. PAINE said he did not know; he
had never conferred. with him on the
subject.

whether he was prepared to say any
person should be excluded from mem

such lattguarro? •
biz. WOOD Bald be bad no diffintilty In
answering that question. He did not
believe anybody was fit to sit in the
House who considered the Government
of the United States .a humbug, or who
denthrmed the President In such sonrrlt.

Mr. SARGENT Ant/irked ho had elm.

Mr. WHITTEMORE asked Mr. Wood,
sarconlcally. whether he did not thin k
it better to treat that clue of people
with conciliation and kindness.
Mr. WOOD—Yea, but not to give thaw

ELDRIDGE—Sot to put them

Mr. BARGER IC, in reply to Mr. Lid.
ridge, raid he would hazard the opinion
that if gentlemen were to be excluded
from the House who could be proved
to have used such language, meats on his
left (Democratic aide) would be pretty
generally vacant. (Laughter.)
Mr. WOODWA.RD declared, with some
excitement, that the casertione of the
gentleman from California were slander-
Mr. PAINE resumed the door, and
lasisted on the previous question.
The previous question having been
seconded, and.the main question ordez.
Mr. HOLMAN moved to reconsider
the vote ordering the main question,
which motion gave him the right to the
floor for an hour. He divided his time
among the members on both sides. An
excited discussion -ensued.. between
Messrs. 'Holman, Smith, (o:erm ) Beck,
Yeerbecs. Sargent, Oa& Ma am,
Woodward, Butler, (Msaa,) Wood,
Morgan and Eldridge.
Mr. llOLMAN"reminded the Rouse of
the excinalon- of Mewl. Young and
Brown, members elect from Xentucky,
on the protean, of having need expres
sions that were regarded as disloyal.
-Mr.. VOOREIEES remarked that the
ustly good effect of the objection to Por
ter was that it would involve member,
on tne opposite aide in contradictions and
necessitate a change of front. The cue
presented no difficulty to him. There
was no reason agalobt Porter being
.worn In, as he held that the House had
not the tower to make inquiry Into his
record, if hie constltttente sent him here.

Mr. SARGENT repeated that the Detn•

WOODWARD said he roan, to reply to
the alenderont charge made against the

California ought to know that faat; and if
he:did know It, ho ebould not have

Mr; WOOD considered this a good op.

however, agree with the members on
