A FIELD DAY IX CONGRESS.
Dilatory Tactics and the Hottest Strug-glo
of the Session.
Indignation at Ferry for Withdrawing'
the Vermont Papers.
The House a Scene of Tainnlt and Yio-lent
Disorder.
Which is Quelled by the Sergeant-at
Arms and the Macor.
Washington, March 1.—The Sen-ate
recess having expired at ten
o’clock, the Senate're-assembled at
that hour, but no legislative business
could be transacted, tlie objections
in the Vermont case having been dis-posed
of last night, 1 lie Senate
awaited the action ot the House in
that, matter.
House—All the liills recently
passed by the Senate, removing po-litical
disabilities, were passed.
A call of the House was moved,
for the' purpose of delay. The
Speaker counted the House and
found a quorum. Roil call was de-manded,.
to verify the Speaker’s
coynt. The Speaker said that, fur-tlier
proceedings under the call of
the Ilonse were in order, under the
rules of the House, but not under the
electoral law; the Speaker was not
responsible for the law.
Mr. Walling disclaimed any reflec-tion
on the Speaker, but demanded
the roll call to make his motion fora
call of the House. The yea* and
nays were taken for the call of the
House resolution, and resulted yeas,
68, nays, 169' This skirmish occu-pied
an hour and a quarter, and was
followed by a motion to reconsider.
The Speaker ordered prayers, and
the legislative day .of Thursday
began.
After reading the journal, Popple-tonchiiitied
tliat duplicate returns
from Vermont, had been properly
madeMo Ferry, and Vermont should
go to Die Commission. A hail'dozen
roll-calls arc possible tinder the pro-ceedings
jn this direction. The six-ty-
eight are determined to die game,
which it is thought they eventually
most. No committees this morning.
All interest centers in the House,
and there intense excitement over
the roll call, to dispense with the
eading of the full journal under
suspension of Hie rules, which is
dlowable by a two-thirds vote, dur-ing
the balance of the session, if
the minority iiud themselves short of
a third on the call, they will be help-less,
unless they recruit or by strata-gem
compel t he House to suspend
the rules continually on minor points.
The motion to suspend the rules
and suspend (lie reading of the jour-lal,
resulted, yeas 165, nays 85. Gib-son,
Levy and Ellis ol the Louisiana
lelegation voted yea. This cull is
preliminary to Poppleton’s motion
egardlng the Vermont returns. The
further count may be delayed several
hours, unless forced by a resolution
to proceed, which can be passed un-dor
a suspension of the rules. It has
transpired that duplicate returns
from Vermont were filed with 1 lie
clerk of tlic court, whose duty it
was to forward it. The minority
insist that the senate shall meet and
open the certificate tendered now
from that State, and the one which
by legitimate procedure should be in
Ferry’s box.
Speaker Rand all rules that Ferry,
in refusing to read but carrying away
with him a duly authenticated paper
affirming the election in Vermont,
acted wrongly, and it is competent
for this house to demand the return
of Lire paper. A resolution to that
effect is pending.
The house seems perfectly uncon-trollable.
The minority demand the
Vermont paper, and the Speaker
rules that the motion to suspend the
rules is in order, and refuses to en
tertain appeals? All the members
are -on tlioir feet except those who
are on their desks. &
_ Randall has just said ‘‘the chair is
determined that, gentlemen shall
take their scats It will not submit
longer to this disorder,” [applause]
but the disorder continues. The
mace officer lias’ just paraded over
the floor. Members were seated and
the Speaker lias ordered visitors
from the floor.
Speaker ltaudall, afier having the
rules i said : “The chair is reso-lute
and the sergeant-at-arms will do
his duty. Clear the room.” The
lobbies and all approaches to the
house are cleared. The vote is now
progressing on the motion to sus-peud
the, rules and proceed with the
count. It is quite likely that the
house, instead ot certifying the Re-turning
Board of Louisian , to court
for punishment,, will turn them loose.
Two hours’ debate on Vermont
have commenced, after which pro-ceedi'iVgs
for the' missing paper from
Vermont will be in order.
The committee ot arrangements
for the inauguration have decided to
have a grand torch-light procession
in lieu of a ball. The buildings
along the A venue will be illuinina-ted
and decorated. All associations,
civil and military, desiring t» parti-cipate
in the display, are requested
to address Alex. R.' .Sheppard, chair-man
executive committee, postoffice
box 3+2, Wushingtou.
W asli ing ton, March .1 .—Evening—
During the bouse debate on the Ver-mout
certificate Mr. Ilewitt stated
that lie had received the package ad-dressed
to Ferry, in December Jasl,
but Ferry had persistently refused to
receive it. Hewitt made a long state-ment
about Ferry’s conduct. A
statement was also read about Mr.
Gorham, Secretary of the Senate,
explaining the course of Mr. Ferry
in not receiving the package.
Ferry sent the package to the
house this afternoon, while the de-bate
was going on,but no one seemed
disposed to receive it. A resolution
was then offered by Proctor Knott
that fhc duplicate return from Ver-mont,
bo opened by the President of
the Senate, in the presence of the
two houses, and if found to be a
genuine certificate that the same, to-gether
witli accompanying papers,
bo referred to the electoral commis-sion;
and that if the senate refuse to
meet in jointsession for that purpose,
that the house notify it that it will
not bo ready to receive the senate un-til
it does. This was lost, by 116
yea s to 148 nays. Hopkins
of Pennsylvany, offered a similar
motion, omitting the threat about
not meeting the Senate, which was
lost hr the same vote. Lane moved
to reconsider, and the Speaker ruled
the motion in order. Hale moved to
lay it bn the table, and this time an
all night session seems probable.
Evarts has publicly stated that the
declaration of Hayes election cannot
be delayed beyond to-morrow even-ing.
MISCELLANEOUS.
En Route for Washington.
Columbus, Ohio, March 1.—Gov.
Hayes held a reception last night,
md left at noon to-day for Wash-ington.
He made a brief speech last
night, and after sperking of local af-fairs
and old associations, the Gov-ernor
proceeded: “As for myself
and family, we go perhaps to return
in a few days to occupy our accus-tomed
place in this community. Pos-sibly
we go to other scenes and other
duties, not to meet you again. In
that event I wish to say, as Mr. Lin-coin
said, on parting with Ms friens
at Springfield sixteen years ago, I
trust you will pray that I may have
that divine assistance aud guidance
without which I cannot succeed, and
with which 1. cannot fail.” Gov.
Hayes will not resign the Governor-ship
at once.
Hayes’ Progress—His Pai’ty.
Columbus, O., March 1.—Hayes
and party left for Washington at
one o’clock. The party consisted of •
Mrs. Hayes; his sous, Webb C,, and
Scott Hayes, and liis daughter Fan-nie.
Among (lie party were Gen.
J. G, Mitchel and wile, Miss Platt,
R. H. Piatt and Frank Hickerett, all
of Columbus; Gen. 11. P. Buckland
and wife aud Dr. J. T. Webb, of
Tremont; Gen. R. P. Kennedy, of
Bellefonte, and T. G. Nickell, ot
Chidieothe. The train left on time.
A Wayside Speech.
A halt of the train at Newark, O.,
allowed Goy. Hayes to say a few
words, as follows, to the crowd as-seinbled
on the platform ; “I appear
to say a few words in bidding you
ood-bve. I understand very well
the uncertainty ot public affairs at
Washington. I understand very
well that possibly next week I may
lie with you again to resume my
place iu (lie Governor’s office and as
your fellow-citizen—but I also un-derstand
that it is my duty to be at
Washington, prepared to assume an-other
position, higher and more ihi-portant,
and with more difficult du-lies.
I have thought, as I look upon
this great audience, and as to-day I
gazed upon the people who thronged
our route to the depot, ot a similar
occurrence sixteen years ago. A
little less than sixteen years ago l
marched down High street with a
thousand men, to pass to the East
and the South to do what we could
to restore the Union of the States
and re-establish the authority of the
constitution. [Cheers.] Iu that
work we were eminently successful,
so far as it was possible to be sue-cessl'ul
by force of arms. I am not
here to say a word iu disparagement
of what was accomplished by the
brave men who went out with me
from different parts of the country.
Of my comrades one-third and over
pever returned to their homes. They
perished in the discharge of their
duty, that tho republic might live.
But there was something force could
not do. We would have our Union
to be a union of hearts, and we
would have our constitution obeyed,
not merely because of force that com-pels
obedience, but obeyed because
the people love the principles
of the constitution, [applause] And
to-day, if I am called to the work
to which Abraham Lincoln was
called sixteen years ago, it is under
brighter skies and more favorable
auspices. [Applause] I do hope, L
do fervently believe that by tliu aid
of Divine Frovidence wo may do
something iu this day of peace, by
works ot peace, toward re-establish-ing
in the hearts of our countrymen
areal and hearty attachment to tho
constitution as it is and the Union as
it is. Good-bye.”
The Sew Folicy Toward the South.
New York, March 1.—The Tri-bune’s
Washington special says it is
undoubtedly true that the President
intends, as soon as Hayes is official-ly
declared to be President-elect, to
modify the orders to Augur so as to
require him to uo iouger maintain
the statu.quo in New Orleans, aud to
use the U. S. troops statioued there
only lor the purpose of preventing
bloodshed. This policy has been
determined upon by the President in
opposition to the advice of some
members of his cabinet, but it is un-derstood
to have the approval of
some of Gov. Hayes’ most intimate
friends now iu Washington. The
Republicans are greatly divided in
regard to this new Louisiana policy,
and some ol them have already been
to the White House to protest againt
it.
Satisfactory to Minors.
Wilkcsbarre, Pa., March 1.—The
Dispatit says a telegram was received
there yesterday afternoou, from the
managers of the Lehigh and YVilkes-barre
Goal Company, to their agents,
ordering all idle mines in this vicin-ity
to resume work at once. This
will put into immediate operation, in
this vicinity, eight colliers, wnich
have been idle lor some time past.
