BUELL & ROBERTS, :573 & 375 KING jj I'HKLCT, CHARLESTON, - S. C. SENATOR CLARK RESIGNS. (lives Up His Seat in the Senate and is Re-Appointed. One Hundred and Twentieth Day.? Mr. Clark, of Montana fairly swept the Senate with surprise by a formal announcement that he had sent his resignation as Senator to the governor of Montana. The announcement came without any previous intimation. Mr. Clark struck just at the moment the iron was hottest. Mr. Chandler, chairman of the committee en privileges and elections, had given notice that at 1 nVlrir-u- he wnnlrl mil nn for c;:nsid oration the resolution unanimously reported from the committee declaring Sir. Clark not to be entitled to his seat in the Senate. A spirited contest over the "^solution was expected. Every Senator in the city w'as at his desk. At 12.30 as the routine was concluded. Mr. Clark quietly arose and addressed the chair. He desired, he said in a low. tense voice, to address the Senate on a question of privilege personal to himself. Instantly there was a buzz of expectation in ihe chamber. His address was a short arraignment of the committee's action and an analytical discussion of the evidence, an explanation of political and business affairs in Montana, and a bitter excoriation of Marcus Daly ar.d his friends who have antagonized the ambitions cf Mr. Clark. As. Mr. Clark averted to his desire to hand down to his children a name untarnished, even by the breath of disgrace, tears welled to his eyes and he nearly broke down. It was a Ht?o moti'e ce/mo Thfin ho roitho 1pf ter he had sent to the governor of Montana, tendering his resignation. At the conclusion of the speech. Mr. I Clark became the center cf a group of Senators, all desirous of pressing his hand. Little other business of importance was transacted. Mr. Hoar offered a resolution for which he asked immediate consideration. directing the Committee on Foreign Relations to inquire whether American citizens are obliged to obtain passports or other license or to pay any fees for permission to pass j I from the Hawaiian Islands to the United States cr from any part of the I I'nitrwi Stntrs tn tJm Hawaiian Islands. or to make any payment of money to j secure the privilege cf landing in the j islands, and whether it is expedient j that such relations be longer continued. One Hundred and Twenty-first Day ?Discussion of the administration of affairs in Cuba by agents of the United States occupied the attention cf the Senate during the greater part of the day's session. Mr. Bacon, of Georgia, called up his resolution directing the committee on relations with Cuba ?o make an investigation of the conduct of the financial affairs of the island, and addressed the Senate upon it. One Hundred and Twenty-second Day.?During practically the entire session of the Senate the postofficc appropriation bill was under consideration. The measure was read and all of the committee amendments were : agreed to except that relating to the rvtpnsinn nf the iineuniatie tube ser- i vice. This created some debate and was being discussed when the measure was laid aside for the day. Mr. Wolcott. chairman c>f committee on postoiYice and post-roads, vigorously attacked the committee proposition to appropriate $7.3o.OOO fcr the pneumatic tube service, declaring the extension of the serviie was unnecessary ar.j the 1 appropriation a waste of public money. 1 Mr. Mason, of Illinois, quite as vigorously supported the proposition. The , amendment of Mr. Butler, of North Carolina, to reduce by 10 per ent. the j amount to he paid the railroads for the | transportation of the mails was le1 11 4 1 iJXTK UU, il IU 11. | HOl'SE. One hundred and eighteenth Day.? The House passed the general deficiency appropriation hill, the last but one of the general appropriation bills. The Military Academy bill followed it. The deficiency bill carried $3,833,102. .aid precipitated no contest. The general debate was limited to one hour on a side and was devoted principally to political topics, the feature being i. severe arraignment of the administration by Mr. DeArmond. cf Missouri. One Hundred and Twentieth Day.? The House sent to the Senate the la.-:t of the appropriation bill?the Military Academy bill?and will be ready to atjourn as soon as the Senate disposed of those it has not passed and the two Houses adjust the differences in conference. There was no contest over the Academy bill today, and it was passed practically witnout amendment, i The House will take up the bill to es tablish a civil government in Alaska, anil it will be considered from day to day until disposed of. wi h the understanding that it at all times give way to conference reports. One Hr.-.'l.rd and Two; ty-firrt Day. ?The II .use accomplished little he- 1 ?ide> passing the Senate bill to iacor- 8 I poratc the American National Red 1 Crass. No progress was made with l the Alaskan code bill, owing to the in- j ability of the two sides to agree as to i the time to be allowed for general de- t bate. The conference report on the t District of Columbia appropriation bill c was rejected, after extended debate t mainly over appropriations for sectarian institutions. It was agreed that the minority cf the judiciary commit- , tee should have until Monday to file , their views upon the anti-trust bill and i resolution reported by that committee. ' One Hundred and Twenty-second 1 Day.?The House passed a special River and Harbor Bill carrying $100,* 000 for surveys and emergency work and devoted the remainder of the day 1 to the Alaskan Cede Bill. Very little of the three hours' cebate was pertinent to the measure. General debate was closed and four pages of the 617 pages of the bill were dispo.-ed of before adlournment. When the Prince of Wales ate a 1(V j cent dinner the other day the fact was considered to be of sufficient importance to he cabled across the Atlantic at *_'0 cents a word. Yet some people claim it is the thing that is done which counts a:;d not the person who does it. In the Composing Room. Mr. Sniallcaps?That new man on | the .hir.l machine is a funny guy.
