SENATE.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-In the Senate, aftor tlio journal had been approved, Sonator Shortnan (0.) offered a resolution for tho appointment of a commlttoo cX two Senators to join alike committee of tho Houso to wait upon tho President and Inform him that unless ho .shall have any further communication to mako tho two houses are now roady to adjourn.

Senator Blair (Mass.) insisted that tho Sonato considor tho labor bill, and Intorposed objection to tho consideration of tho resolution.

Sonator Edmunds (Vt) said that the resolution would not lntorfore with tho motion to take up tho labor bill, and Senator Blair withdrew his objection.

The resolution was agreed to, and Senators Sherman and Harris woro appointed tho commlttoo on tho part of tho Senate.

Sonator Fdmunds moved tc procood to executive business. Sonator Blair appealed to tho Senator from Vermont to withdraw his motion In order that tho Sonato might considor tho labor bill. Senator Edmunds said ho would be most glad to join with his friend from Now Hampshire in passing a suitable bill, but it would bo impossible for such a bill to bocorao a law at this time, as it would havo to go back to the Houso of Representatives. Sonator Blair said: "I refer to tho bill already passed by tho Houso at this session providing for tho reinstatement of arrears for labor porformod under tho eight-hour law." Senator Edmunds understood what the bill wasi but said it had been amended in tho Sonato, or ought to bo, In order not to make moro gifts to tho peoplo who with a perfect understanding agreed to do a certain amount of work for a certain amount of pay and got it. "Other people, who acted under moral or other coercion," ho addod, "are roally entitled to considoration." After further discussion Senator Edmunds insisted upon ills motion, which was agreed to, and tho Sonato with closed doors proceedod to consideration of oxocutivo business.

At i:5b p. m., .tho tariff bill, which had boon signed by Speaker Rood, was presontcd to tho Sonato by tho Clork of tho IJouso, Mr. McPhorson. Two minutes lator Vico-Prosidont Morton affixod his slgnaturo to It Tho signature was announcod through Chiof Clork Johnson.

Tho announcement was followed by tho recognition of Senator Aldrlch (R. 1.^, who reported from tho oommlttco on finance the resolution providing for tho adjournment of Congress, amended so as to mako tho time of final adjournment 5 o'clock p. ro. Tho resolution was agreed to.

While business was in susponse Mr. Bluine, who had accompanied tho President to the capltol, stopped into tho Sonato chamber and was greeted with cordiality by several of his former associates, Senators Dawes, Cullorn, Hawley, Ingalls and othors. Sonator Ingalls pressed him to como into his old Boat and Mr. Hlaino having complied with tho request was for a tlmo tho center of a ploasant group.

Sonator Harris (Tonn.) offorod a resolution tendering tho thanks of tho Sonato to Vice-President Morton for tho dignified, Impartial and courteous manner in which ht) has presided ovQr tho deliberations of tho Senate. Adoptod unanimously.

A resolution similar In its terms was offered by Sonator Ransom (N. C.) in compliment to Sonator Ingalls as President pro tempore, and It was also unanimously adoptod.

A mossago waB received from tho House that the adjournment resolution had been amended by substituting 0 o'clock for 5, and tho amendment was concurred in.

Sonator Sherman (in oompany with Senator narrlB) reported that the committee of the two housoB bad waited on the Prosidont and had informod him that tho two houses had concluded their business and wore propared to adjourn if ho had no furthor communication to make to them, and that the Prosidont had answorod that ho had no further communication to mako.

A message was received from tho Houso announcing its concurrence with tho resolution as to negotiations with Groat Britain and Mexico to provont Chlneso entering the United States.

Mr. Morton then roso and said: "Betmtorfi: Ilpforo moiling the announcement that will leave Senators at liberty to return to their homes 1 express my most gratofyl appreciation ot tlie resolution of approval and confidence with which you havo honored mo. Assuming, as I did, the responsibilities of the ohalr without previous experience as presiding ofllcrr, it Is not necessary for too to say that if I hove discharged tho deHeato and Important duties of tho position in a satisfactory manucr It Is dno to tho Indulgent consideration and cordial cooperation which I have received from overy Senatot on this floor. I Indulgo in tho earnest hopo that I may bo permitted, upon tho reassembling of Congress, to sec every member of this body in bis scut. In renowed health and strength aftor a season of rest from tho arduous labors of this, the longest-continuing sossion with one cxeoptlon In the history of tho Government. I feel that I may with good warrant coagratufato the Senate and the oountry upon the largo number of important measures which havo received the careful considoration of this body and have become laws. It only romains for me to declare, as 1 now do, that tho Senate stands adjourned without day." (AJplauso.)

The Speaker laid the letter before tlie-House. Later Mr. Spoouer (R. I.) from tiie committee on accounts submitted report on tho Investigation Into the pondunt ot tho postmaster.

Tbo report states that tho charges in the Enloe -resolution have been substantially proved and, although tho relations between the late Postmastor of the House (Dalton) and his contractor (Cnlbertson) give rise to suspicion that Some private arrangement existed between tbem whereby Ilalton during the F^rty-ninth and Fiftieth Congresses derived personnl profits from tho mail contract, no absolute 'proof of ttjfe has been obtained. The report lis accompanied by a resolution declaring tfio office of postmaster of tho House vacant and directing the assistant postmaster to perform tho duties of the offlco until a postmaster shall have boon elected and shall havo qualified.

Mr. Hayes (In.) submitted a minority roport, agreeing in substance with the majority rejtort, but dissenting from It in Its reference to Postmastor Dalton. Mr. Dalton's conduct of the office had boon clean, and a mere suspicion against him should not have been incorporated In tho roport

The Secretary further says that wbon it was first reported that a powerful Government was about to tako measures resulting iji tho expulsion of vast numbers of Its .subjects beoauso of their religion, the Department of State immediately telpgraphod an Inquiry, and Mr. George W.fWurts, Charge do'Aflolros ad intorlm, isepllod that the rumor was without foundation.

A Senate concurrent resolution was agreed to, requesting tho Prosidont'to on tor into negotiations with the Governments of Groat Britain and Mexico for tho prevention of the entry of Chlnoso laborers Into the Onited States.

SYNOPSIS OF HIS KKMAUKS. BOSTON*, Oct,. 3.—A public mooting preliminary to tho annual mooting of tho National Civil-Sorvicn Reform League, which opons to-day, was hold in Tremont Temple Wednesday evening, whon the prortident, George William Curtis, delivered his annual addross to a largo audience. Prominent among those In attondanoo wero Secretary William Potts, of tho Now York League William Dudley Foulkc, of Richmond, Ind. Lucius P. Swift, of Indianapolis Charges J.

Halo, Moorflold Story and othors.

Speaking of tho ridicule and criticism to which civil-sorvlco reformers have boon subjoetod Mr. Curtis said: "To tho cant about the Pharisaism of ro form thnro in one short nnrt final annwen The mnn who tells the truth 1A a holler man than tho liar. Tho man who does not steal hotter man than tho thtof. The Senator from Mafiaachusotts declaring that polities are raorVt principles ap. piled to public alTnlrs Is p. truer patriot ond a aoblor American than the Senator from Kuo«a» declaring that the decalogue and tUo.golden rule have uo placc la a political aunpatgn. Our ploa for clviwaervico reform resta upon tho actual situation. Other publlo qaeetto&R than that ot political corruptiou engage tho publlo minQ, but none takes precedence of it In importance. Under our Government reform can be accomplished only by parly administration. Y'et tho chief obstruction Is tho fact that the evil if? common to both purtien. "In tlie Interest of reform It is the annual duty of the league to test the performance of the administration by the principles of reform, and I can best discharge this duty this year by considering a question which Is (requoutly aud strongly urged upon my attention, it is this: la tho coo* victlon of the necessity of reform HO general, is publlo opinion upon tho subject so ripe, that the friends of reform may windy abandon a separate movement and rnergo their action in that of Home oxlhtlnt? party? tn other words, I* there already a political party which Is actually a party of reformt If there lc *ueh a party, I Invoko tbe in quisltlvo shade of Khtnugan and ask what 'are wo here fort An reformers tho league Is composed of protectionists, ndvocatos of a rev* enne tariff, Prohibitionists and Independents, Republicans, Democrat* and Mugwumps. In answering the question, therefore, I shall boar this fact in mind, however plainly I may speak*

,4The

Republican party Uaa unquestionably declared Itself In the strongest manner to be a party of clvil-servlcc roforin. At the samettme and with equal force tt announced that It was tho party of protection, and it also demanded efloetlvo legislation to sccure the Integrity and purity qf elections. These were tbo three cardinal declaration* of the platform, and ono ot them was especially addressed to clvil-eorvlco reformers."

Mr. Curtis then i«eviowed at great length tho work of tho Republicans In Congress, quoting declarations by Speaker Reed, Mr. McTvinloy and tho Now York Tribune to tho effect that tbo party had fulfilled its pledges. Mr. Curtis entered into an elaborate analysis of tho work done by tho present Administration for civil-service reform, \nrtitch ho concluded by saying:

Hlt

it will be soon what oxtrava-

ganco filibustering is. CONFtUMED IIT THE 8KKATB. WASHINGTON, Oct A.—The Senate in oxocutivo session Wednesday afternoon oouflrmod tbo following among other nominations:

Is undeniable that in the general partisan pillage of the civil service the Republican party has broken its promise. "This Is not to say thut nothing has been done nor that the reform law has been either grossly violatod or generally disregarded. It is only saying that the party cau not bouestly claim tho confidence of clvilwrvice reform* ors."
