Washington, Sept. 2G. When the Ben ate met this morning the repeal men tere caught napping by Stewart, who observed that there was no quorum, and questioned the propriety of pro ceeding. A stay of proceedings was necessary until the members strolled in one by one to a sufficient number to constitute a quorum. Dubois, of Idaho, created a sensation by offering the following, which went over till to morrow: "Whereas, several sovereign states are without full representation In the senate, to which they are entitled, be it resolved, that the consideration of leg islation relating to the federal election laws, tariff and financial matters, ma terially affecting the partially unrepre sented states be postponed in the sen ate until Monday, January 15th, 1S94, to enable the states of Washington; Montana and Wyoming to have the in fluence and protection In the senate guaranteed to each sovereign state by the constitution of the United States. The resolution was laid on the table. Yeas, 27, nays 19. ' The repeal bill was then taken up. Perkins addressed the senate In op position to repeal, after which Stewart took the floor. He read from a paper articles on the president's alleged re buke to the senate. Palmer, democrat, Of Illinois, asked whether it was con sistent with the proper relations be tween the senate and the president to read in the senate .grave- charges against the executive for which ho (Stewart) would not be responsible. Stewart suld It ys consistent for him as a senator to defend the senate when the press said the president was rebuk ing the senate and calling senators criminals.- "Let his friends deny he has used patronage to control legisla tion," said Stewart. "Let them make It clear how the sentiment of congress has been changed, and how an over whelming majority in fe.vor of free coinage has been changed to a gold monometallist majority." Palmer wanted Stewart to Indicate a single instance in which the president had employed patronage to control a senator or member of the house. "Why, my dear sir," said Senator Stewart, in a patronizing way, "these charges have been made In the public press. They have been brought home here, and before I indicate any one, will you deny that patronage has been given to those who will support the administration measures?"'' "I will tht.heey co ' "Will the senator name a single sen ator whom;- tie knows or believes to have been influenced by the patronage of the president?" asked Palmer. "Does the senator want me to make a personal matter of this, and dwindle this down In this way?" asked Stew art, and then, as if disgusted, he said "Oh, shaw." He, then asked Palmer if he would vote for a resolution author izing an Investigation into' the ques tion. Palmer said he would, when Stewart would make charges against any senator or member of the house. "I do not want to confine it to one senator or member" said Stewart, amid laughter. "Investigate them if you dare." "1 will," replied Palmer, "whenever the senator brings forward charges against any Individual in the senate, I will vote for an investigation." . "When I make a criminal charge against any particular individual," said Stewart, "the senator from Illinois will allow, it to be investigated, but he will not protect the honor of 'his executive In denying these wholesale charges; he wants me to make a criminal charge against a senator." Stewart then read a long article from the San Francisco Examiner commenting upon the course of tho president. Stewart closed bis speech with a passionate indictment of England as a monster that stalked through this country breaking down the Interests of states and territories; that claimed the direct legislation of congress; and whose voice had been heard during last week on the east front of the capitol rebuking senators. Morgan rose to a personal explana tion referring to the article in the New Tork Times today that no honorable democrat could listen to that part of Senator Stewart's speech criticising the president and continue to act with him in the obstruction to repeal unless he waan enemy of the president. Mor gan bu.id he was very happy to stale that between the prerident and himself there existed the most cordial personal relations. He thought he differed with him in no question vital to the country or. to. the democratic party. Mr. Voorhees then arose and said: "I am very glad to hear the remarks of the senator from Alabama In regard to the assaults that have been made upon the president of the United Slates for the last two days. I desire simply o account for he total silence on this Bide of the .chamber by stating that it las not bec 'thought necesenry to say a single word in defense of Grover Cleverand. I have reason to believe that on the other Bide of the chamber, and all over, the country his defense has been fully made' by the American people themselves. Wo will not feel called upon to enter into any defense of the president of the United States unless something far more important may be charged against him than has been up to the present time." After a short executive session the senate adjourned. GIGANTIC LUMBER TRUST. Clinton, Iowa, Sept. 26.
