(ierinan (.'atbolici or WisoonAlii to right the limine! l.mv-A Plan of Campaign Adopted, mid Legislative Lobbies Appointed. it.WA I-:K, May '.!. —Tho first business at yesterday morning's session of tho German Catholic convention was to finish the election of ollicers. Anton Ric.ket, of Milwaukee, was elected secretary Charts Miller, of La Crosse, corresponding secretary Jacob Horn, of La Crosse, treasurer. An executive committee of four members, and a labor committee of five mopiliers, were also selected. •lohn C. Ludwig, chairman of the committee on resolutions, presented some resolutions setting forth a plan for organization for political work in the coming Stato campaign. A synopsis is as follows:

The preamble anserts that in no sense are the societies political, nor do they want to dabble in politics, but that to oppose meaMires like the Pennett law an.I to work for their repeal as a matter of conscience1 rather than a matter of poMties. The German Catlio lie societie. will r.ot lutther nor oppose* the interests of any political party bu« will keep out of politics. Hut. it is the sense of this convention that the Hennett law and sprcn'' of the pat rnal it In legislation infringes upon our consciences, and it would be a wrong 10 our children not to take an a *lve part in opposing such measure*. It is resolved, therefore, that the German Catholic societies take an active part iu the coming Sta*. campaign, an.l will organize foi that purpose.

Committees shall be appointed whose duties l. '*hall be to watch carefully that no friend of paternal measure* is elected to either branch of the Legislature. The funds necessary tocar ry on the proper agitation shall be raised by voluntary subscription.

Another resolution provides for the appointment of a Legislative committee to report promptly any measures that appear antagonistic to Catholics.

Still another resolution recommended tho organization of debating clubs in every congregation in the State where tho young men may be encouraged to discuss questions of public interest.

All of these were adopted. In closing, speeches were made by Gustave Kaiser and Anton Rickel, reviewing and praising the work done by the convention. A vote of thanks was given heartily to tho citizens and .societies of Milwaukee for the entertainment fu rnished.

Rev. Father Joseph A. Dries, of Reaver Dam. pronounced a benediction and the convention adjourned.

Rishop Katzer's charge that tne Ronnott law emanated from a session of the Grand Lodge of Masons of Wisconsin has created much indignation in Masonic circles.

When Mr. O'Neill presented bis colleague's credentials and escorted him to the desk to take tho oath, Mr. Vaux bowed to the Speaker with impressive statoliness.

WASHINGTON. May 2i).—In the Senate yesterday Senator Sherman (O.), from the committee on foreign alTairs, reported an amendment to bo offered to tho consular and diplomatic appropriation bill, authorizing tho President to carry into effect tho recommendations of j,he international conference hy tho appointment (by and with the advice and consent of tho Sonate), of throe commissioners to ropresont the United States in tho International Railway Commission, wlioijo compensation Is to be paid from tho fund to bo contributed by the several nations interested.

The Senate bill snjectlng imported liquors to the laws of the several Slates was again taken up, and Senator Morgan (Ala.) made an argument against its constitutionality.

Senator I'ugh (Ala.) argued in favor of tho bill. Its defeat would leave the States in a most serious predicament. He believed that the States bad the power (without any legislation by Congress) to control the use and salo of intoxicants within their limits. The exorcise of that invaluable right had been suspended by the decision of the' Supreme Court,, but its existence had not been affected.

At this point Senator Allison (la.) presented the conference report on the army appropriation bill.

Senator Ingalls (Kan.) inquired what had been done in regard to the Senate amendment prohibiting the salo of alcoholic liquors, beer or wine at cantoens.

Senator Allison said that tho provision bad been modified so as to road: "Thut alcoholic liquors, beer or wine shall oc sulil or applied to enlisted men in any run teen or post ti lers' store in any Stale or Ter rltory in which the sule of alcoholic liquors, necr or vvlao Is prohibited by law."

Senator Paddock (Neb.)—That '-give!! away" the whole proposition. Senatar Klair (N. II.)—1 suppose the Senator from Iowa means to ho understood that the Senate conferroos found It necessary to yield to tho House conferroos.

Senator Allison—I do so wish to be understood. Senator Hlaly—And, of course, no one will fail to understand that this is an entire surrender of the proposition.

Senator Ingalls—It is a surrender of the control of the army of tho United States to the different States in which troops :....y happen to lie located.

Senator Allison--I do not wish to go into thn question now, as I promised my colleague (if the report occupied any time) to withdraw it so as not to Interfere with my colleague's bill. I will say, however, that the Mouse eonferrees were unanimous in their porsisteney that the proviso inserted by the Senate should not remain in the bill. The phraseology adopted by the conference committee is the same that was proposed, supported and maintained in tho Mouse by those who desired to restrain the 1 iquor t.rallh in the army. Of course this provision only applies to States and Territories where the prohibitory law prevails, as it does in South Dakota and in some other States where troops aro garri soiled.

Senator Paddock—I think it is within the bounds to state that nineteen-twen tielhs of the troops are outside of States and Territories where prohibitory law is in force.

Senator Ingalls—Tho moro this mattor is studied tho moro obnoxious it appears to me. Either tho control of the army, so far as the sale of intoxicating liquors is concerned, ought to lie in Die United States, or it ought not to be. Some soldiers ought not to be allowed to have access to the flowing bowl and the festive canteen and other soldiers denied il. The army ought to be subjected to one system of eontrol. Congress ought oitlier to say that all soldiers shall have an opportunity of getting drunk or that none shall have the opportunity. If tho provision reported hy tho conference committee is not whipping tho dovil around tho stump I must say thai 1 never saw that process before.

Senator Allison withdrew the roport and said he would call it up this morning.

Tho consideration of the bill as to liquors in prohibitory States was resumed. After further debate a motion to adjourn disclosed tho lack of a quorum. Tho motion was resumed with a like rcbult. Senator lilair again
