UNITED STATES SENATE. The Kxtrn emiiuu of th Senate. Washington, March 012:15 p. m. Bulletin.! The Senate in executive cession his jest confirmed all denominations for tie Cabinet. Mr. Kiddleberger, of Virginia, who yesterday objected to the immediate confirmation of Senator Bayard as Secretary of State, was in his seat to day, but, contrary to expectation, did not attempt to further delay the confirmation of the new Cabinet oüicers. - After reading the journal Mr. Van WTyck was recognizsd and offered the following resolution, for which he asked immediate consideration: "Eesclved. That the Secretary of the Interior be directed to inform the Sena'e whether patents had been issued for lands granted in 1871 to the New Orleans, Baton House and Pittsburg, popularly known a3 tbe Backbone Railroad; if so, ffr what number of nrres; to what corporation or individuals; hcse receipt was taken for the same wizen signed; whether unusual means were used to hasten the preparation and execution cf said patents: whether the clerical force employed worked nizhts and dys, that they might be completed before Maich 4; what dav they were ready for tbe eigratnreof the President: what nec?S3ity existed for iiny special exertion to se cure the ccmnletioa and signature b5fo:e the 4'h day of March, and whether aoytnlDg wis d-re to protect the actual Bettlers tn their rights to any snch lands. Also whether previous lo the 4th of March 'anything was done or written in regard to any other unearned land grants forfeiture which had been consigned by the Forty-eighth Conp,:e:8" Mr. Edmunds objected to Dresent consid cratirn, anl under the rules the matter went out for a day. Mr. HGäf !äul before the Snat the letter he had received from the President of thn Union Pacific Railroad, which he asked might be printed for information. The Cabinet nomiDatians were then confiimf d. When the doors reopened the Senate ad journed until Monday. All the Cabinet nominations ware confirmed without debate or division, and by a unanimous vote of the Senate. No other besinesa waa done. A lively debate is looked for when Sena tor Van Wyck'a "Backbone" resolution i? reached for ditenssion and action. Senator Teller feels that an attack habeen m8de upon the integrity ot his omv cfiicial action as a member of the lait a 1 ministration, and has declared his Inten tion of making such a defease as will leave no donbt of the propriety of the act in question. Senator Van Wyck is convinced that thf public interests demand an explanation of tbe issuance of patents to tbe "Bicktme" Company. The subject will probably ca ne up on Monday. NATIONAL AFFAIRS.

His eecond was to ap peed his signature to the commission of XT. S. Grant as an o!cer on the retired list of the army, with tbe rank cf General. Tbe crowd of callers at the White Hon?-to-day was even greater than that of yesterday. They bfgau to arrive before the dxar were opened, and continued coming n larg numbers all day. The President reesid ome of them in the library, others in the East room, jnst as happened to b convenient. Tbia arrangement kept him huay run nirg np and down stairs. The majority of callers consisted of delegations from different States. The resident to day accepted the resignation of fir. Arthur's Cabinet, ana siged the

Tin proposition to equalize the interest payineat: upon the Pacific Railroad Company's indebtedness through the entire period of sixty year, is only embodied in a bill introduced by Senator Hoar upon his oaly resposnibility, and was never dieenssed in the 1 odlciary Committee. The pending proposition of the committee is embodied in an amerdmentto the fir3t bill reported, and provide that the semi-annual paymeata from tha beginning ere to include the interest on the entire amount cf unpaid debt. To is also has received the approval of the Judiciary Committee or the Senate. Hoar's bill was Introduced, as he stated, in the Senate with a view of calling oat the opinions of business men, and for the tame purpoee a copy was doubtlesj seat to Mr. Adams befors its introduction. The Star 'ays: Representatives Biyne, Hiscßck and Millard called upon President Cleveland ys-terday, and f ai quite a long talk with'iilm.

The following is the letter of tha President of the Union Pacific Railway Company to Senator Hoar, mentioned in the Senate report to diy: Boston, Feb. To Uon. George F. Iloar, United .States Senate. WesMEgton: My Ikar SiE-The till of the Senate Judiciary Committee, reported by you, regulating the future payments to be made by this company to the United States In settlements of its obligations, ons now for some days been in my ban d.i. An you are aware, the representatives of the Cotspiny tere not consulted In regard to this bill whea it was In preparation, nor were tney permitted to soe it until it bad been reported to tue Senate. As the Unicn FaclCe is tbe one corporation interested, it may not be out of place for me to take au or portnnity concerning the measure woica h.-.s been aflorded you, as my conclusion wa reached in r eg aid to it from, a director's point of Ylew. As originally reported the bill wag construed as compelling the company to make semi-annual payments in the amounts or f löü.CtO, with increasing interest, from lirst payment forward to one hundred and twentieth, so that, in the round numbers the payment, during tba CrBt year, would have amounted to a "33 u S'JüO.OCO. and the payments during the sixtieth year would have amounted to about 5 5 000.00 J; as subsequently amended the annual paym n.s from the beginning are to include interest on the entire amount unpaid, that i, tbe ptyicenta fcr the first year would be 2 Süö.CCO, which wo'ild have regularly decreased at tbe rate of abaat f 50.000 per annum, a the debt was ptd, until in the s'xtieth year the payments would have arnaanted to but about S.HJO.OCP. Finally, in the shape in which th; measure is now left the payment, as l undeistand it. are equalized throughout the entire peiiod, so that, ltrcludlnc the central branch, they will be about I18.O0O.IC0 a year. It is merely nesary for me to refer to tne two last plan?, that of annually decreasing tbe payments, and that of equalizing the pa jm eats. A3 to the first, 1 am obliged to say 1 do not think, under present business conditions of the country, the Union j i acme wouia oe aDie 10 meei us requirement. However it might bave been under the conli Hons w.nich heretofore ex'sted, j; ft notorious thatteither for the Union Pacific nor for the other railroads in the country, are the p.esent tiroes prosperous. Business is languishing, receipts arc falling off, and the future is uncertain. Mcr are these conditions averse condition of a merely yasfing nature. There are now four TriasrontlLental routes in placa of one, and the Union I'acihV meets severe competition in its most valuable local territory. It remains to hs seen how I far the Increase of traffic will compcasUe for its subdivision; con6ouently the load whicn, loui yeati ago, might bare been safely assum-d is now dangerously cea7y. If you expect a horsa to p'lll a load i is not well to hitch to him a lod heavier tr.an be can pull. What is trne pnysiciliy of a horse is true financially of the Union Pac fie. From my present knowledee of the company's system of roads and the existing bust ness conditions. I am oblttrfd to say that the annual requirements of 52.50.1.000 on the part of the United States would so cripple the Union l'acißc that I should ba unwilling to assume any responsibility for the result As rpects the second scheme, I am advised tha' evalized payments, including thos for the central branch, would amoait to about fl,S 30.000 a year There is, ! think, a fair and reasonable prospect that tbe company coa'd carry this burden. 1 dc not pretend to peak with confidence, for even that load is a heavy one, acd the future of a railroad is alwas a matter of uncertainty. While the Government compels t..e Union Pacific tomeetcoai petition inorder to retain iu tr&!h, it has, by it.' legislation, so tied up the hands of this CDiapanj that it can not meet its competitors oa eiual terms. I ran not but consider tnis course of lUe years pursued loward this company ly the United 8:ates as economically a faulty one. From in j point of new, it is not in the interest of eilhe Government or people to force the Unlan Pacific to annually take tnese large sums out of iu capital and tie them up in an overflowing National Treasury. Tbe Union Pacific serves six State and four Territories. There is not one of thes States and Territories which is not to-day calling lor railroad development, which, if it coald b provided, would not only afford wio!e communities lorely-nceded business facilttiet, but would add Jarg ly to tbe traffic and income of this company. Every dollar ot money therefore whlcn is taen out of rar business ancuallj is so much which count be applied to the development of the country, not only to the advantage of the Union Pacific, nt to Increase the security of the Government, sc far as the ultimate recovery of Its debt is concerned. Each request for these ad ditional facilities which now reaches me. wiltaTe to be c?t witn the answer, that tne moaey

which would liave sufSeod to supply it had been psivl into the Nstioaal Treasury. The Government has taken from us. and the communities tre serve, Jagt so ranch fructifying capital. The Union Pacific now tas, in the Tharman act, a sinilng fund trlnjinj le?3 than 3 per cent, intertst a year, some 55.OO0.CC3. That f 5.CJ0 -HA) would easily construct and equip "ÖO rai'.es of rAilroad. These S50 miles of road wo ild bria, into the Union Pacific system prooably ten times the ret lucerne of the sinkln? fund investments. The lirst raorl gze sureties representing the ownerShip of this aaduioual milease might deposited in the Treasury, an 3. if at maturity of our loan, tte coinjany was unable to raise the necessary money to pay the Government oST, itnufctuke the consequ..nccs. The Governdeat could sell out he aecuritte representing the whole Unloa Pccitic system to the highest bidder, in all human probability no low would hive been incurred. whi5e an estimable benefit would have tven onferrei upon the communities which that sjEtem served, it seems to me this would be tie true business policy for tne Government to pursue with this company. Cougrtss might impose any restrictions it saw fit In regard to the construction of the auxiliary lines. It micht insist upon their securities of ever? dicrIption being deposited in the Treasury, bat for a doeu years to come, before the i'ac.tc loans mature, tho people in the States and Territorlts bejono tbe Missouri an I amons tüe mountains would have the advantage of tiioee l.ne, and tnus what is now n barren sinlting fund, useful to no one. would be converted Into what seems to me a mostbenehneut system of internal improvement which could be devised This plan, undoubtedly, Coiisre-s has fully considered ai;l 6et aside as impracticable. I therefore do noturce it. I merely mbmit it as tbe original scheme of the Uinctors of tne Union Pacific Killway Compiny, and it 6. -ems to ma today, from e.cry conceivable mint of view a wiaa fcchemc, and one more financially sound than any otr-erwnu-a has been suggested. Mean Thilo it only remains for the Union Pacific to accept such terms a arj Imposed upon it. When the Thurman bill parsed the Government practically took the control of this matter out of the company's hands. Tbe plan its representatives- had devise! for meeting the Government obligations at ma turity was then st aside and another, devisod by tongres, substituted for it. The ainkins fund plan was substituted for the auxiliary railroad system plan. Since then the . attitude of the company has been an expectant It has waited to bee what rule Congress, in its wisdom, shall impose, and when that rule is imposed it will live up to it. if upon fair trial t e ncrden exceeds the company's strength, the directors do not doubt that, in the interest of all ccnterned, Congress will modify it. Thi, therefore, Is the view which the Directors now take of the Senate Judiciary bill in the shape which I understand it has nually assumed. The company is willing to accept it aud to loyally live np to it to the best of its ability. Meanwhile it is not responsible for it, and if. as I bone will not be the case, the burden shall be found to exceed its strength, it will be simply for Congress to say whether 1: proposes to take the property or to modifj the act. There is one other matter to wblcn 1 wish to refer, upon which much stress has been laid in discussions over the different measures proposed. It is a matter of some deli cacy, but it seems to me important, and in such cases I do rot see that anything la sained by not peakln? oat frankly, or, if need be, bluntly 1 have seen it stated, not only in papers, but in debates in Congress, that practically the Union Pacific was still managed by Jay Gould, and that had simply been put forward br him as a figurehead in order to allay the popuTkr feeling and to obtain terms more favorable than would otherwie be given. in justice to Mr. Gould, as well aa myself, I wish to state that this is in nodetree the case. Itm not Mr. Gould'a choice for the nosition I now hold. Moreover, since the 17th of June last, when I became President of the Union Pacific Hallway Company, I wish to be held solely responsible for whatever has been done in the management of that company. In the conduct of Its affairs Mr. Gould has been cousnlted hs other Directors have beeu consulted neither more nor less. Generally, his views an i my own have coincided. Wnere thev have not coincided, he has Invariably acquiesced in my concisions, properly taking the ground that rs the re s possibility tor results rested on me, it was for me to finsJly decide w uat coorse snould be pursued. It is perhaps well it ahould be publicly understood tuat the course iu this respect which has been pursued heretofora will continue to ba pursued to long as 1 remain President of tha Company. Whatever is done will oe done because, after full discussion v.ith the Directors, I think it Is the test and wisest thing to ba done. If at any time a policy Is imposed npon me by cither any single Diiector or a majority of the Director which does not f-ecm to me to be right and sound, I shall forthwith make way aa President for some one else more in sympathy with that policy than I. Meanwhile, until I do so I assume in advance full responsibility for whatsoever la done. lruly yours, Charlls T. adam. Jr., President. Üneral Itlaek, of Illinois, Commissioner uf Feuatong.

Lord (iramille Makes a Conciliatory Speech on the Bismarck Controversy iu the ILords. Bismarck's Son Herbert Visits tbo Princs of Wales The Empsror Desires Cordiality. GLADSTONE AM) BI&3IAKCK. Gladstone Make an Explanatorj and Conciliatory Speech on the C arge Made by CUtnarck, Lomox, March ). In tbe Lords, Granville Eaid he felt it would be unbecoming for him to rr.eke a long reply here to Bismarcks speech in the Heichstaj on Monday becanee Bismarck had raised several points concerning a number cf written cornr.imications which have been exchanged, aüd the number of dispatches which had ben published in the blue book betöre being delivered, ar.d had declared dispatches had published which ouht never to have been published. "I hope," said Granville, "to make such a statement in the regular way to Bismarck aa (hall show him above doubt that they may be of a very diUerent color. I sincerely regret tbat the speech I made in the House of Lords, under the pressure of severe party attacks, should have annoyed Bismarck,who fvidtntly labored under a misconception. The Duke of Kichnfond had attacked the trovernment, saying: 'YoRr own papers show the Egyptian policy to be bad, and a great foreign statesman condemns it.' I retorted the Dnke of Richmond had no occasion to complain of Bismarck's disapproval, because we failed to follow the very friendly advice (I onghr, perhaps, t) have said opinion) which Bismarck gv-3 to the previous and present Government to take Egypt. I added I presumed he did not expect us to abandon all liberty of action in our foreign and colonial policy. 'The thrust was .timed at tbe Duke of Richmond, not Bismarck, The latter, to my great regret, construed this as having a meaning whica I positively assert does not attach to it. Bismarck complained of my correctly describing his advice, or rather opinion, which, even if true, I had bo right to mention, because it was most confidential. Now, regarding the words 'take Eypt,' 1 ought probably to bavt used abetter phrase, if I had spoken from written notes, although I the words were certainly applicable to an nexation, protectorate or even occupation. Nobody would regret more and nobody would be injured more by a breach of con fide nee than myself. I did not mean to refer to these kind and friendly communications described by Bismarck In the . Reichstag, but to tbe subsequent declarations, which were not confidential; and which appeared to me to expiess Germany's hope that England woe-Id represent Europe's interests in Egypt in the future. My object is not to defend myself, but to correct misapprehensions which are inevitable wnen important utterances are telegraphed incorrectly, as frequently happens between the Capitals of Earope. No country more fully and cheerfully appreciates Germany's immensely important position in Europe than does England. (jJENEHAL FOREIGN NEWS. Emperor William Desirous of Maintaining Cordial Relations.

The claim is made, howeve-, tbat there will be a demand for ccal supply by what is known as the "spring run," and that the operators can well afford to pay an advance.
