It Is understood that his nonunation will he s-nt fj the "nate very shortly. Ths report that ltepr-srntative Clifton It. Ureckinridtre of Arkansas had been tendered the place of United States minister to Russia nd had accepted It and that President Cleveland would send the nomination to the senate today, was th" Initial feature, of a day of unusual activity In congress. The report first grained Circulation at th capltol at 10 o'clock fcnl was fully verified by Chairman "Wilson cf th ways and means committee, who was coimlzant of the facts that had led up to the president's action. Much pigr.iflcancs was attached by members Df congress to the appointment, and It was th main tople of on versa Hon; to the exclusion, of the Impending tariff conflict. The appointment was finally flecided n yesterday afternoon. It has been in contemplation for two weeks, fcr.l Mr. Breckinridge, has been a frenunt visitor at the white house during that time. He was with the president fcgaln at 2 o'clock yesterday and refnained for some time, the acceptance pf the honor being concluded before he left. Mr. "Wilson, -who Is a close personal friend of Mr. IJreckinridKe. was bn of the f'W who knew It outside of rx'-utlve circles. The causes leadin up to the appointment are well known among Mr. J3recklnridges friends. lie was one of the foremost advocates of President Cleveland's policy of repealing the silver purchasing clause of the Sherman oct. This action proved t- ba unpopular in Mr. Breckinridge's district, and he was defeated for renomlnation in the congressional convention held a few weeks apo. At the time Mr. Breckinridge was abBorbed In tarifT work, and could not go to Arkansas to attend to hia Interests. His letter at the time, stating that his fvublic duties here were paramount to its private Interests at home, attracted much attention. It was soon after his defeat for renorr.ination that Mr. Cleveland bepan considering the advisability of nominating him to the Hussion mission. Mr. Breckinridge has been conspicuously identified with the house tariff bill of late and throughout Chairman Wilson's eevere illness and absence In Mexico Mr. Breckinridg-e wa looked upon as his personal representative. While the bill has been In conference Mr. Breckinridge, has taken much of the arduous work off Mr. Wilson's shoulders.

Chronic Patients That Can Find No Cnrc Real TMs. - A. F. Jackson-, one of the leading merchants of Mansfield, La., in writing f Pe-ru-na, says: "On one occasion a lady friend of mine c.ime In my store and said that her health was falling and that her case had batlled the kill of her physicians. I went to the drug store and purchased for her a bottle of Pe-ru-na, In a fehort time thereafter (I think about three weeks) the returned to town and said that h-r doctor had called oa her and She told him she did not need any more of his medicines, fcaying that she had taken your Pe-ru-na. and that it had cured her and made a young woman of her again. I think her complaint was eatarrh. indigestion and failing health from change of life." Any woman suffering from any form of female disease or change of life should take two tea-poonfuls of Pe-ru-na before each meal and between meals, and should take vaginal injections of hot water each day. If necessary regulate the bowels with Man-a-lin. There is not one case In one hundred this treatment will not cure If faithfully followed. Thousands of dismal homes have been made happy; h-u-sand of shrunken, decrepit women have been restored to perfect health by adopting this treatment. It occasionally happens that some detail of treatment or unusual complication of trouble make It de?irable for those using this treatment to write to Dr. Hartman of Columbus, O.. for advi-e. Those wishing a complete description of female diseases, their causes and cures should send thir address to The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company. Columbus, O., for a copy of The Family Physician, No. 3, which will be sent free. This valuable medical treatise should b:?

Senator Hill has received a long letter from Wotthinston (I. Kurd, chief of the bureau of statistics, in whbh he states that the- iK-issil.llitus of the revenue that can- he raised from the income tax ranges all the way from $12""l0.0i.0 to $:r,000,00O. He thinks the latter tiirure is the highest which can possibly Imj hvped for and th- iast lVw years the collections would fall below $l.i.0f'0,ooo. He also expresses th.- opinion that the revenue which will be collided on private in 'nines will not b- in. -r i than sutih-i nt to pay for collection. i)i:nit; koh n:rn Prompted the Friendly Ad Ice of the (iuvrrmurnl. WASHINGTON, July 20. Whil there has been no oien developments in the neg'ttiationj between the state department and the Japanese government respecting thw withdrawal of Japanese troops from Corea, there Is Kmund for the belief that everything: Is progressing toward a satisfactory termination and that the happy result will be in a larg-e measure attributable to the beneficent exercise of the fc-ood ofTlces of the T'nited States. Without reference to the publications that have purport.il to give the language of Secretary Gresham's disp.atch, it can be stated now that it contained nothing that could be construed into an affront even to a dlploma-tlc sense. The quotations that have been given were erroneous and especially In the sentence that places the president In the position of asserting that Japan Is waging an unjust war upon Corea. When the correspondence Is published It will without question be found that the dispatch contains sincere expressions of good will toward both parties to the Controversy and that the government of the United States has simply and in a friendly manner deprecated the maintenance of conditions that threaten peace and the president ha.s expressed the Borrow he would feci should the horrors of war follow. There was no chAracterization of the present conduct of Japan as that of waging an unju.-n war, and noising, it is stated. In the dispatch that could offend the keenest sensibilities, especially as the two nations party to the correspondence are anl have been on such terms of cordial friendship as the United States and Japan. Moreover, the beet evidence that the Japanese have not taken orTlcial offense at the c jr.nnunieatiou is 4o be f-mnJ in the fa -t that there has not been the faintest sign of remonstrance received from Tokio at th? Japanese legation here, as W"uld certainly have he. n the case had the govertuneiit ft-' t aggrieved. In such cases it is customary for the minister residing near the president to be advised by his government that certain ri presentations made in this case, by United States Minister Dunn have not b. eri accoptahlc, but nothing of this kind has resulted. The Japanese minister here was ad-vi.-ed of the contents, and even the language of the dispatch to Mr. Dunn, and it ran b stated that he saw nothing In it beyond a manifestation of a desire on the part of the United States to avoid a bloody and costly war between nations wKh which H has friendly relations and for which it cherishes a warm friendship. AX AmITIOAI, KF,rHT. Senator Allen of .Nebraska Denounce! the Sogar Trunt. WASHINGTON, July 21. Senator Allen of Nebraska, who was a member of the Fugar Investigating committee, has made an additional report to the senate supplementing that of the committee. He says: "In view of the fact that the report of Senators Gray and Lindsay, in which I concur, does not set forth the facts In this caad fully as I think, they should be f tated, I have deemed it perfectly proper to file a separate and additional report. The testimony nhows to my mind Quite conclusively that contributions were made by the eugar trust to both the republican and democratic parties for campaign purposes. The testimony of Harry O. and Theodore Havemeyer and John E. Searles leaves no doubt of the facts that the sugar trust In the state of New York in 1&92 contributed money to the democratic party for campaign purposes, and at the same time, and for the same pur pose, contributed money to the republican party In the state or Massachusetts, it is true that thee witnes3 3s testified that their contributions were made for local and state purposes, but there Is no doubt In my mind that the money went into the general campaign fund of these states and was used as much for national as for state aaid local purposes." "I think rhe American sugar refining company, popularly and more properlyknown as the American sugar trust, has been In the habit of contributing money to the national compaign funds of both the democratic and republican parties, through Its president, with the expecta tion, if not the Implied promise, ihat Whichever party succeeded to power the interests of the company should be 'cared for by it. This deduction Is fully warranted by the testimony taken by us. A wisely-drawn and judicious law looking to a prompt and efficient remedy for this growing evil should bft passed by cnigre3 and approved by the president.

"The testimony shows that two senators, John It. McPherson of New Jersey and Matthew S. Quay of Pennsylvania, rlld engage in speculating In what is known as eugur ptocks or certificates during the pendency of the present tariff bill before the senate. As their testimony accompanies this report and Is self-explanatory, I will d no more than to say that I think it fully discloses the ne.esflty for a law prohibiting this practice. It Is a delicate matter for nie to speak upon this subject, but a sense of public d'ity requires me to condemn the practice as unwise and fraught with danger and (u one which, if indulged in to any considerable extent by senators and representatives, will Inevitably lead to the defiMt of the needed reform In legislation. "The evidence !os not show that the ffugar trust had any direct influence in procuring the presentation to the senate of a committee amendment to the sugar schedule, although I think that schedule. In so far as It prescribed an ad valorem system of taxation, is entirely satisfactory to the trust. "There Is nothing In the evidence to shJw that Secretary Carlisle had any improper Interviews with any representative of the trust or that any advice he may have given or assistance he mayhave rendered the finance committee was at all improper or out of place. I am well convinced that In what Senator Jones did in the premises-de was actuated by honorable motives and had no desire to unduly favor the sugar trust In any respect. I believe It to be due to all of these ofTioers to Fay that the evldeoce does not cast a suspicion upon their conduct. I am thoroughly convinced, however, that no senator or representative should ever permit himself to be approached upon any subject connected with legislation by the representatives of private or special Interests, except on such occasion when such persons may be heard by the committee of which he 13 a member, exactly as they would be hard In a court of justice in, a case there pending and to be determined. "It Is proper to call attention to the reckless and open defiance of the authority of the senate to require witnesses to answer questions that may be put to them or linke disclosures germane to the subject 'matter of Investigation. The defiance of our authority by witnesses demonstrates to trie that If the senate ever expects to arrive nt the truth of any matter under investigation by a committee appointed by it. It must promptly take contumacious witnesses in hand and deal with tbem without delay as they would be dealt with in a. conirt of Justice under like circumstance.'. Dut fo long as partisan politics enters Into the discussion and consideration of Investigations of this character the pe.ople can expect such witnesses to escape unpunished, and no one knows this truth better than the witnesses themselves." In conclusion Senator A!ln urges the passage of a law prohibiting speculation by senators and representatives and a law requiring witnesses before committees to answer question?.

Till: IWrSTlfi ATIOV. More Witnesses llefore the Committee lteporter Hood It xjim tried. The senate sugar Investigating committee resumed Its work today in the oldtime manner. Only Senators Oray, Lindsay and Davis wera present, but they had severul witnesses before them and announced a determination to proceed with the work so long as there wa3 any Ios-plbility of securing! witnesses who would furnish any testimony. The n:c?t important witness of the day was Henry Itaod, the New York Herald reporter, who wrote the articles In that paper upon which the present branch of the Inquiry 1 based. . Mr. Rood was examln -d at length as to thi sources of his Information and especial effort was made by th-3 members to get the best information at Jlr. Rood's command as to his statements that United States senators had been speculating In sugar stock since the tariff bill was taken up in the senate, despite their denials. It is understood that Mr. Hood responded to this request as fully as he was able to do and professed a willingness to aid the committee to the extent of his ability. It was impossible to secure the details of the testimony. When Senator Cray was asked for a statement as to the proceedings he replied that he could say nothing and that it was the intention of the committee not to give out any information until the present branch of the inquiry wäs completed. The reason given for taking this position is that the publication of the facts elicited would lntc-rfere with the plans of the committee and prevent as con'plete an inquiry a.- they desire to make. Today's witnesses, therefore, were all warned that they were on the same plan aj witnesses l-efore a grand Jury, and were warned aqainst divulging the proceedings to anion e. Other witnesses ' the day were W. B. Wheeler, a New Yerk broker, and A. M. Seip of this city, Mr. Wheeler stated to the committee that ht hii jiever placed any orders fur senators for sugar stock and was uruabl to give any information. Mr. Seip has been represented In the newspapers as saying thar.'be had come into possession of knowledge of the fact that certain senators had place! orders f.r sugar stock during the spring and to have stated that it was placed with a man then representing the linn, of Seymour, Young Ä: Co., Xew York brokers. MIMX A UIOHin. The House I niilile to T)o limine Yesterday. WASHINGTON, July 23. The house found Itself without a quorum early today. The call showed 180 present, a fewmore than a quorum, but the committee on rules reported a resolution to direct the sergeant-at-arms to bring absentees to the bar of the house. Mr. Reed desired an adjournment to listen to the eloquence of the senate and was suggesting "our friends still seem to be answering the indictment and are pleading complicity on the part of the grand Jury" when the speaker sharply rapped him down. Mr. Reed thereupon demanded the yeas and nays on the rule. A failure to find a quorum resulted and. on motion of Mr. Bynum, the house adjourned at 1:30. Oold Iteaerve Iov. Baring, Magown & Co. of New York will ship to Europe $ÜOO,000 In gold, which was engaged at the sub-treasury today. This, with the $1,500.000 taken from the gold reserve last Friday, reduces It to the lowest point in its history, something over $00.000.000. In commenting on this condition a prominent banker declared today that while there was no use In urging another bond Issue until the tariff muddle was straightened out, a serious condition is threatened. Cooper Ulli Reported. BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL, WASHINGTON, D. C, July 23.

Claim That the Originator of the Ilamnri Affeatlnjr Senator Will lie Ferreted Ont Irospeet for Another tenant Ion Call hy President Warner of the American Blmeta.lIlo League Other evr of the Cupltnl. WASHINGTON, July 22. The following letter from the chairman of the house eut)-commlttee on trusts to the president of the American eugar refining company was tnailed tonight: "H. O. Havemeyer, President of the American Sugar Refining Company, New York: "Dear Sir If you will supply to me, as chairman of the sub-committee on trusts of the committee on manufactures, the Information asked for berein. I will see that it is laid before the house. A free trader myself, and believing that no tax should be levied upon sugar (or anything else) except for revenue, nevertheless, a3 practically every article of general consumption is to retain protection, I feel no prejudice against the eugar Interest, as such, and I think a larg'3 number of the members of the house entertain the same view. As, however, the sugar trust demands protection, or more properly speaking, the taxation of the publio for its profit, it should put before congress and the publio its real condition, so that an intelligent opinion of the merits of its demand may be formed. If, upon an actual and necessary investment of cash capital It cannot save itself from losses without burdening the tax-payers, then it has as much justification (and more) for being fed from the .public resources by taxation as many industries which we. in passing the Wilson bill, allowed to remain upon the charity list. "If, however, its profits have been excessive, when figured upon an actual cash and unwatered capital stock, then you, as a fair-minded man, will agree with me that you fhould not have any legislative favors. In euch en event, a tax Of 1 cent per pound upon 100-degree suäfar for revenue only would be a fair and equitable one, permitting a reduction of 1-100 of a cent for each degree of sweetnesä lacking. Such a tax as this, while taking nothing "to the treasury of your company, would pour a great many millions Into the government coffers. The Information asked for Is comprehended under four heads: "1. What Is the present tax .valu (I. e. cost of replacing) of thj plants actually in operation and necessary to produce a quantity of refined sugar turned out by your company? "2. What have been the actual profits of the A-morloa-n sugar teflnlng company for each full fiscal year since Its organization, and whatare Its profits so far in the current year? "3. What annual salary is paid to each of its general officers? "4. What Is the actual paid-in cash capital. Including the plants turned in at their real cash market value, and what is the present surplus of the company, including all Individual profits? "The McKinley bill gives the sugar refiners an rportunlly of collecting from the consumerr a tax of Ys cent per pound upon all sugars above No. 1 Dutch standard, and the consumption of all classes of sugar during tne past three fiscal years aggregated 12,956,S'"i2.4i'J pounds, fully 9OO.00o.OU1) of which werabove this limit. It follows, therefore, that tho sugar trust and the Independent refiners in tho United States must have, received over $40,000,000 of the people's money, while the government got during the three years only JI7o,7.il. As your company asks continued favors, the propriety of supplying the country witii the Information a.sked herein will n t be questioned bv so reasonable a man of business as yourseif. You are a democrat and will, I trust. Join In the h-pe that within a few years the present wretched eystem of taxing thei peopl? (under the misleading name, of protection) for the benefit of private Interests will be done away with entirely and forever. Yours truly "MICHAEL D. HARTER." TIIH INVESTIGATION. Committee Thinks It Hit n tievr to n Thingr or Two. The senate sugar tmst Investigating committee is devoting itself In the branch of the inquiry which it Is now pursuing to ferreting out the origin of the rumors affecting senators, and the members of the committee now think, with a fair prospect cf success. They are of fh opinion that the stories accusing senators of speculation In sugar stock aaid of having been influenced in their attitude toward the tariff bill by a friendly interest In the sugar trust, have had a cemmon origin, and they now think they have obtained a clew which will enable them to develop the source of all the statements. The testimony given by the witnesses before the committee yesterday point to a certain individual as the party responsible for the charges which have been set afloat. He is not a resident of Washington, and his present whereabouts have not been definitely ascertained, but It Is understood that no effort will be spared to And him and bring him before the committee and thus give him an opportunity to make good the charges. There is an Impression among members of the committee that he has sought to avoid appearing before the committee, while striving to give it all the work possible. The name of this man Is sacredly guarded. Tim rcrinEMio in china. One Hundred Deaths Occur Dally at Houg Kong:. Recognizing the difficulties In the way of obtaining accurate information upon sanitary matters from oriental countries Dr. Stuart Eldridge, the health officer of the port of Yokohama and member of the imperial board of health at Tokio, has sent to the marin hospital bureau a seml-ofrlcIaJ statement of th epidemic of plague tr southern China, It appears from his report that this scourge, of which only fragmentary news has been received, is one Jf the most fearful on record, having rts greatest hold at the port of Hong Kong, where Tiost of the foreign commerce touches. The disease broke out In Canton late last February, and about the same time was epidemic

at Pakhol, a port not often lslt1 by Europeans. During March and April it steadily Increased until It assumed gigantic proportions:. According to the letter of. Dr. Eldridge the eastern authorities trettted the disease with their ordinary indifference. , Although Hong Kong is the center of trade in the East, but half a day's journey from Canton and In constant communication therewith the existence of danger was ignored. Several cases appeared in Hong Kong during the fust days of May, but not until the- loth of that month wis any official action taken. It ha steadily increased in that place until th mortality has reached loo a day, despite the exodus of lOO.OoO Chinese and many Kuropeans. The natives in iivt cases have left on feeling the tirst symptoms of the disease in the hope of dying in thoir native villages, while a dozen Europeans have been attacked and most of them have died. From Canton and Hong Kong th? disease Is spreading through the neighboring country and will probably soon appear in the coast towns e.f China, north of Hong Kong, becaus from the carelessness in these ports no effective quarantine is likely to t-e established. Several cases have already occurred on steamers trading from Hong Kong to Chinese ports, but without serious consequences, on account of prompt action by th ship's surgeons. A quarantine system has been put In operation In Japan, holding ships from the infected district nine days after arrival or after the last case had abated, and but one infected ebip has reached Ja pan. "If I may presume to advise," says Dr. Eldridge. "I would say that the most stringent measures nxay need to be taken to protect the United States, particularly as regards certain classes of goods from China, likely to convey infection." THE I.lBOn COMMISSION.

It I Sniil the Frealdent "Will Announce the Name Shortly. It is stated, on what is considered reliable authority, that the president has, in addition to Carroll D. Wright, commissioner of lalor, chosen Judge Lyman Trumbull of Chicago and a prominent Nw Yorker, who has always taken a deep interest in. the cause of labor and whose ju.igia.-nt In questions of this kind Is regarded as fair and impartial, to serve as members of the commission to investigate the Chicago strike. The nufno of tho New Yorker, it is stated, has not b?en mentioned except in confidence to one or two of the president's advisers. It Is asserted, however, that he has accepted, and as soon as Judge Trumbull indicates his acceptance the commission will be announced. Although the report that the prbsidc"t has chos.'ii Lynian Trumbull of Chicago as one of the two commissioners who are to aid Carroll D. Wright In the investigation of the recent strike could not be ofHcially confirmed tonight, it is generally credited. It is known that tho president has under consideration the names of Lyman J. Cage, th Chicago banker, and Lyman Trumbull, and has Intimated his Intention of selecting the Illinois mem!er of the commission early thLä week. nimetnlllo I.cngue. Ccn. A. J. Warner, president of the American, bimetallic league, has iiSJtd the following adjress: "The country haj now had a year's experience under the gold starlarJ-p.-licy. eince the acts of 1SÖ3. closing the mints of India and the stoppage of the coinage In tha United State3. The results of thli experience are manifest on every hand in th-3 business depression of the country. In labor strikes and in general discontent that everywhere prevails. Congress will sOoa complete its work, and the general situation, and the xrcpects bvfore the country will then be fully disclosed. Some Ftat elections. Involving th election of United States senators, have already been entered upon and the campaign fcr the election cf members of the housa of the Fifth-fourth congress will soon begin. "IYi Vlewi of thes- conditions the executive committee of the American bimetalllo league has thought It advisable to call a conference of those who believe that no permanent improvement in the condition of the country can be hoped for as long as the present gold standard policy is pursued, and who favor the immediate restoration ef the bimetallic, standard In th-v United States, with the free coinage of both gold and silver at tho ratio of 1R to 1. to be held at Washington, Thursday, Aug. 1R. 1S94, to take into consideration th4 situation in the country and to decide upon the policy to tm pursued to bring about the change in the monetary policy of the government nceBsary to restorw prosperity to the people." The Outlook in the Houke. The program In the house for the coming week will depn.1 largely upon the tariff problem, to which all present arrangement must give way. Tomorrow 13 District of Columbia day, and Tuesday and perhaps Wednesday will be devoted to the consideration of the Moore-Funston contested election case, from the Second Kansas district, in which Moore claims the f lection by 1,','A'A votes, and Funston, the sitting member, by eighty-one- votes. Tho majority of the committee have reported in favor of Moore, tho contestant, and Funs ton will undoubtedly te unseated despite the minority report In his favor. Tho remainder of the week will be given tn th consideration of bills reported from various committees. DEBS FOR PRESIDENT. He Is Nominated ly the Convention at Ogdcu'n Grove. CHICAGO, July 20.

(Applause on the democratic side.) It was because of that determination. It was because of that growing enthusiasm. It was because we felt the spirit and the thrill of the spirit of American liberty ineitng us. it was because we felt the incitement of a great moral purpose that we t'ok. in this cause In 1SSS and fought for it in li:)0 and prevailed in lStJ.

Gorman gave a gieat exhibition f f audacity in the senate la a two-and-a-half-hour tirade against President Cleveland. Gorman- was fresh from the w hite houses where he bad a etormy interview with the president He asked he president to take back in part what he had said about the senat conspirators In the Wilson letter. He asked that be withdraw the word "perfidy." President Cleveland fctood firm and would take back nothing. Corman threatened to kill the tariff bill with his band of eix conspirators. He left the white house telling the president he would explode some party secrets which would create a sensation. Hut domain's speech has Imply strengthened tho president on bis fight for tariff reform. Lukewarm members cf the house, who were ready to accept the Gorman-Price bill, after hearing Gorman's slanderous attack on the president, expressed tln-ir inclination ani determination to recent the outrageous charges by standing with the president to the last. The galleries were packed to th door.; and so great was the interest in Mr. Gorman's speech that the me-mb'-rs of the house fiock-'d to the senate end of the capitol, and th house, being unable to hold a quorum, adjourned. Mr. Gorman, with a frankness that amazed those present, diseased party secrets, opened the door to party otucuses and Hashed his sear, blight into the dark corners of party history. Tho president was assailed with keenness and vigor by the leader of his paity on the flocr of tho senate. He defended the senate tariff bill and its preparation and charged in terms that both Mr. Carlisle and Mr. Cleveland were not only aware of the concessions made in that bill to procure Its passage through the senate, but that Mr. Carlisle had been consulted at every-step and that Mr. Cleveland had sanctioned all that was done. Gorman is a cool, easy talker, but he gives tone and gesture a dramaiio effect that thrill the auditors. Today he was at his best. One by one he called Senators Vest; Jones and Harris as witnesses to the truth of his statements. Thm having freed himself from all restraint he told the inside history Of the conference over the tariff bill. He even went back and told the secrets of the Mills bill and the St. Louis end Chicago platforms and the demands made upon the national democratic committee by the sugar senators In 1S92. His personal attack on the president was full of the most sensational characterizations. He told how he had dared, when other men faltered, to walk with Cleveland through the "filth and slime cf the campaign cf 1S94," how he and his colleagues had fought for tariff re-form, "when cowards in high places would not show their heads;" how Mr. Cleveland had tried to "gibbet the senate before the eyes of the country," and said that his action must be attributed to "consuming vanity," an action that was echoed by thoe who "chirped when they talked." His references to the president ereab-d so much commotion in the galleries, sometimes of approval and jomctlm.s of disapproval, that the presiding oftlcer was obliged to call on them to preserve better order. He was listened to with wrapt attention throughout his speech, a deep feeling of excitement being printed on every face. Amir.g those1 who listened most earnestly w3 Sir Julian Fauneefote, the Hritish minister, who was in the diplomatic gallery. In conclusion Mr. Gorman practically warned his colleagues that on the material points it must be the senate bill or r bill. Mr. White of California was the only other speaker of the day. While personally in f?vor of free iron and free iron ere, he, too, declared It to be the part cf patriotism for the democrats to stand together for the senate bill. After he concluded the senate adjourned with the situation seemingly in as chaotic a state as ever.
