A bill was passed authorizing the President

'to nppoint five ndditinnul rndets-nt-large

to the nnvnl academy. The evening session was devoted to private pension legisIntinn. The nnvnl personnel hill, for which the Nnvy Department has been conli'ndinc for so ninny yenrs, was passed by the Seiiiite. It was under discussion for several hours, but wns passed practiin'ly ill the form in which it was reported by the Senate committee. The remainder of lh day's session was devoted to passape of l ills on the private pension calendar, scver.ly-finir in number, and to the rending of the Alnskn code bill. The Senate s-ient most of the day Saturday on the postollice appropriation bill, but failed to complete it. An echo of the eld star route developments was heard when several Senators criticised the method by which a combination of speculators secured the star route contracts. Several bills of minor importance were passed early in the day. The House spent two hours upon the naval appropriation bill without making any progress. The remainder of the session was devoted to enl-igles upon the life and public services of the late Hepresi ntative Northway, of Ohio. The paragraph in the bill relating to the naval academy, ngninst which Mr. Mndd (Ilep., Sid.) raised a point of order, was stricken out, the point of order being sustained. Mr. Mndtl then moved additional appropriations of $"20,000 for the completion of the buildings at the academy authorized in the last naval bill. During almost six hours Monday afternoon the postouiee appropriation bill was under discussion in the Senate, the time being consumed largely by Mr. Butler irop., X. C.l anil Mr. rettigrew (Sil. Hep., S. 1. in an nmendment providing that the postal commission should present its final report to Congress by March 1. ltlOO. Failing after many trials to obtain unanimous consent for the insertion of the amendment in the bill, Mr. Butler permitted it to crime to n vote. It was defeated 27 to 10. Mr. Hawley. chairman of the Military Affairs Committee, moved to take up the army reorganization bill, unanimous consent having been refused to take tip the measure without displacing the unfinished business the antiFcnlping bill. Mr. Hawley's motion prevailed, 44 to 21, this making the army bill the unfinished business. A separate bill RPpmpriaiiiiK $20,000,000 for payment to Spain under the provisions of the treaty of Paris wa passed by the Mouse under suspension of the rules. The Senate bill to reimburse the ("Jovernors of States for expenses paid by the States in organizing volunteers for service in the war with Spain before their muster into the service of the I'nited StnteR also was passed uniler sipi-nsion rf rules. The bill appropriating $."i00.00 for the Pan-American exposition to be held at Buffalo, X. Y., in 11)01 was before the Mouse, when absence of n quorum compelled an adjournment. Formal discussion of the Hull-Hawley army reorganization bill was begun in the Senate Tuesday afternoon! Mr. Hawley and Mr. Warren. Republicans, supported the measure, and Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Coekrell, Democrats, opposed it. while Mr. Proctor, llopiitilicnn. addressed the Senate in favor of soni? amendments which he had propos.-d to the bill. The postoffiee appropriation bill was laid before tln Senate and its consideration was resumed. At 2 o'clock the debate closed and the voTing began. Mr. Butler's amendment rcdttciiu; the amount paid to railroads vas defeated. -15 to 13. The bill was then passed. The House reached the Inst page of the nnvnl bill and adjourned with a point of order pending against a provision fixing the price of armor plate at ?."4r per ton. Much of the time was occupied in debating the amendment, offered by Mr. Mudd (Rep., Md.) appropriating 72(t.O00 to complete the three buildings authorized to lie erected :it the naval academy at Annapolis. The House adopted the amendment, 75 to 53. The House on Wednesday inaugurated the custom which tins prevailed for many years in the Senate of listeiiiiiK to the rending of Washington's farewell address on Washington's birthday. Two hours were devoted to the naval-appro-printion bill. The consideration of the naval bill was suspended to allow the members of the House to par tribute to the memory of the late Senator Morrill of Vermont. The session of the Senate was devoted to two special orders the reading of Washington's farewell address, an annual custom of the Senate on Washington birthday, and the pronouncing of eulogies mi the late Senator Justin S. Morrill of Vermont.

STATE LAW MAKERS.

The bill which provides that the comity commissioners shall furnish a place for holding the sessions of the Superior Court in Lake and I.aporte counties at Hammond and Michigan City respectively, and which was opposed because it was believed to lie the first step in an effort to move the seats of county government to those cities, was passed by the Senate Thursday afternoon.
