H itt Talks From Another P o int of Vlow—A Personal Biohnngo Between Messrs- Blair and Reagan, W ashington , Sspfc. 5.—Most of the time of the house yesterday was spent discussing the retaliation bill, which came up as the special order at the expiration of thele morn- Keliy of Pennsylvania introduced a resolution directing the special committee in vestigating the construction of the library KUilUing to inquire whether any i •herofth(‘ ' ’ • ' • ‘ striictioh of the buildhig. Mr Kelly, when requested by several mem bers to ‘ii\arqe 4 bo-Hi«n 5 ”'s<dd li6 was prompted to offer the'resolution by information which sarly in the session and 1871 dealt S prompt ition whi he had received early in the session and which had since 'heeil corroborated by in creasing testimpuy and additional facts, but decline^ 'to nan the reKotution commiti wing testim o u y ai line^'to name, tire member implicated by until summoned before the Mr. Townshend called up the conference report on the army appropriation bill. Agreement had been reached upon all amend ments excepting those relating to the estab lishment of a gun factory ah Watervliet and the manufacture of heavy ordnance. A further conference was ordered on these amendments. The hous on foreign affaire, heartily < and nrged its prompt passaj^ Mr McCreary praised the administration for its firm and courageous attitude on the fisheries controversy. The president’s mes sage on the tariff and on the fisheries should be recorded together in history. The one sought to lighten taxes and the other sought to m.aintain the dignity of the American cit- iv.en. Tlie Republican senate in rejecting the treaty has given notice that no treaty which could be negotiated would be satisfactory to them; so the time for negotiation was past and the time for retaliation had come. The rights of American fishermen should be protected aud a stop should bo put to an un just discrimination agai::st Amei'iean vessels in Canadian canals. The pending bill pro vided the nece.s.sary lcgj.,lntion. He contro verted the assertion tho t the presidentalready had sufficient authority under wliich to act. Existing law did not authorize him to sus pend trausportation of Canadian goods across the country free o f duty, nor did it authorize him to meet discrimination against American vessels pas.siiig through Canadian canals hy collecfSng-a. toll on foreign ves-seTs passing through Aineric.an canaLs, It was claimed that the power now sought to bo conferred on the p:’csident wasin op- pc^ition to the 29th article of the treaty of 1871. He held that the article was not now In force, but that i t was by the terms of ar ticle 83 repealed after ten years. He believed that article 20 died when the fisheries article of the treaty of 1871 died. Gen. Grant had sent a message to congress on the subject of our relations with Canada and almost instantly messengers were sent from London to Canada to warn the Cana dians that their unjust acts must cease and soon tb* joint higb commission which nego tiated the treaty o f Washington was author ized. Congress should not be unmindful of the obligations which the government owed to tho 10,000 men who managed the 6,000 ves sels engaged in the sea and lake fisheries. The annual product of the business was val ued at $25,000,000. The time had come when the [government ought to be in earnest; aud legislation should be such as to prove to Canada, Great Britain and the world that it was in e,arnest. It was time that Canadian wrongs should be re sented by the United States and [suppressed by Great Britain, It was by no means certain that tho presi dent would be required to issue the prooiama- tion authorized by the bill. He fMr. Mc Creary) hoped »nd believed that when the bill was m.Toted into the law the usual good judgment of the English and Canadian authorities would be manifested and all diffi culties -would be arranged without anything ■which would break up the cordial relations which had existed for many years between Great Britain and the United States. But let the result be what it might the president would be supported by the people of the United States without regard to party. The men of the South and North would stand shoulder to shoulder in solid phalanx to de fend American rights and American honor. [Applause.] Mr. Hitt of Illinois said tho gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. McCreary) connected the message on tho fisheries with what was known as the free trade message. It was an apt combination. The treatment of- our Ash men and the tendency toward free trade had gone hand in band since the day of the in auguration. [Applause on the Republican side.] By joint r>-solution both houses of con gress had resolved to give notice of the ter mination of the fishery articles of the treaty. The fishermen Were impatiently awaiting the time when the arrangement would terminate which had been so greatly to their disad vantage. It was only after the beginning of the uaw administration when a discussion took place between the British minister and our government looking to a renewal of the arrangement. The news filled the Canadians with joy and the American fishermen with dismay. If the administration could not suspend the tariff laws and give them free trade in fish they were promised that the president would recommend the appointment of a commission to take up the subject and enlarge the treaty. The president had sent a message to con gress asking that recommendation. The house would do nothing of the kind and the selinte sent him back word that it disap proved of any such course. Thu Canadians, greatly eu.iouraged by lat had been done by our government, now m a course of vexat free trade in fish 1888 was the abahdoni American citizens; the treaty of with them in a spirit the nation kind approved. The treaty of doned a vast region of fishing waters which American fishermen had before and kept Jt exclnsiyely for Canadian fishermen, ^he _ opinion of the country rejected it long befoj e the vote of the senate. The treaty -was a bar gain, There was more' of a bargain tfiau was written down. Mr. Charles Tupper bad said touching the question of free trade: “Mr. Bayard told us' that there was but one way of obtaining what we wish. ‘You want greater freedom of oommerdal intercourse; you want relaxa tion in our tariff arrangements, etc. You will find,’ continued Mr. Bayard, ‘that the policy of this government, tha policy of th-i pre.sident, the policy, of the house o f repre sentatives, the policy of the great Democratic party of the United States -will at once talc the onward m.arch in the direction yon pro pose and accomplish steadily that which yon desire.’” Sir Charles Tupper then calls attention to the position of Mr. Mills and says: “The ink is barely dry on this treaty before he, as the representative of tha government and chair man of the committee on ways aud means, brings forward a measure to d o what? AVhy to make free articles which Canada seiids tfi the United States and on which Jastyear $1,800,000 of duty were paid. “Let me add,” said Mr. Hitt,, “that- he not only introduced the bill, but ha jmssed it through the house. Ho kept Mr Bayard's word to the letter. The Democfalic party stood by its bargain with the British pleni potentiary.” Mr, Hitt eucoui what had been done by our government, began a course of vexatious tactics to se< free trade in fish would ultimately pot directly. The our fi^heraion was — one who cna|4 tho itndienaut they believed iltimatoly secure indirectly, if directly. The commission of outrages on begun. Was there any- et tlw i feeling in the United Statas Soimto (n 188ii at the recur rent scene from week to week of Ainorl%u ships tied up, and of inhmnauit.v to Ameri can fishermen? The whole story was one of wrong and outrage—wrong 'unrcdx'essed and insult unavenged. Concress had taken the matter up and passed the retaliation act. It stood on tho statute huoirs sb\! and eighteen months had passed by and none of the power conferred by i t had been e.xercised. I The system of outrage had been cheeked in part largely b y the iafluenoe of the passage »f that retaliation bill, which was a pretty strong indicatidii by the representatives of the people of the sentiment of the nation and ithe method the people pointed out to tho [executive to enforce Ihe rights and redress the wrongs of American citizens, Then no then went into an exhaustive a gnment to show that artie'e 29 had not bee abrogated. The a-jthority th on act gave y which ho ■vast'and' might exclude p>i-esiJent le rolalia- rmous power by which ho might exclude not only Cana dian vessels from our ports and Canadian products from our country, b u t any goods coming from Canada of foreign pro duction. The practical result o f an interrup tion of traffic- ill bonds would be to hurt the people of the United States varv materially, especially the peop'o of the great northwest.

Stop tha 1 the offending d and the harbors ol Johns would be turned into prosperous cen ters of new life and wealth. He would take away tho competition of tho Canadian lines and would make tha trunk lines masters of tho situation, and they would bo able to dic tate such terms as they pleased to the pro ducers of the Northwestern states. He (Mr. Hitt) would not readily believe that the presi dent would over, subject unnecessarily a large part of the poopleto retaliation on themselves. Mr Chipmau of Michigan said ho was in favor of the bill. In alluding to the sugges tion that two yearn’ notice should ha given to England of the proposed action as a matter of diplomatic courtesy he gave utterance to the following epigram, which was received with applause and laughter: “The nearer the man approaches a diplomat in form, the nearer be is to a fool; and the nearer he approaches one in substance, the nearer he is to a knave.” Ho did not want, he said, to b e more polite 1 England than self respect required.

W ashington , Sept. 5. —Further discussion •without action on the Chinese bill continued in the senate yesterday. Mr. Cullona intro- canal, between Michigan and Canada, and as to jurisdiction over its waters—whether In Canada or the United States. Mr Gullom also introduced a bill defining trusts and declaring them unlawful, and had it reierred to the finance committee, Mr. Vest’s resolution about the boob pub lished by Mr, McKee, the assistant librarian of the senate, was taken up and Mr. Plumb took the floor and discussed it, and in con nection with it the civii service reform policy of the administration, “One good turn,” he said—referring to the advertisement given Mr. McKee’s book Mon day—“deserves another,-’ aud so he pro- auced i similar publication on the .’subject of the tariff published under the name and title of the clerk of the house committee on wa.ys and means. He thought Mr. Vest ought to attend to Democratic employes before he criticized Republican employes. He reviewed the circumstances connected with the removal of District Attorney Benton of Missouri and District Attorney Stout, of Pennsylvania for neglecting official duty in order to make political speeches. Benton, ha said, had been reinstated through the efforts of BIr. Vest, although he had abused the ad ministration, while Stone, who had not maligned the administration, bad not .been reinste ed. Mr. Vest said if an official of the house had published a partisan work in. his cflieial capacity he deserved the same treatinenl as Mr. McKee—dismissal. Ha denied that Mr. Benton had ever maligned the president, Wh.J had investigated the matter and found Mr. Benton guiltless and had reinstated him. Messi-a. Blair and Reagan Ith'- ' upon a iiersonal discussion, Mr, Blair sent to tho clerk’s deslc and had read the editorial from the New York Tribune, entitled, “The Secret Out,” representing Mr. Clofeland in the dual character of Dr. Jokyll and Mr. Hyde. The discussion between Senators Blair and Reagan was resumed and occupied nearly an hour longer. Mr, Reagan consid ered the hardest thing they said of - him the suggestion that he belonged to the category of “cranks.” He declined to be regarded as a volunteer with tliesemitor from New Hamp- Tho resolution went over without action and the senate took -up the Chinese exclusion Mr. Teller claimed that the Republican record had been in favor of Chinese exclu sion and the Democratic record in favor of Cbiiiefe admission. He referred to the p<v culiar history of this bill and said that it had been introduced by a man who was not a men her of the foreign committee pf the house, read Mr. Scott’s hiogi-aphj»3n the congressloual directory. The presiding officer, Mr. Ingalls, said it was not proper to refer to members of the house. Mr. Teller said he would thou refer to the gentleman as a member of the Democratic national committee. He had beard that the bill Was intended for political effect on the Pacific slope. However that was, he favored the bill and welcomed it. The bill then went over without action. The senate after a short secret session ad- GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS, G eneral Condemnatlon of th e Standard. H icliael D a v itt’s Speech.

The ex-prcmicr’s speech was much below the level of .any of his previous oflforts and in consequence was somewhat disappointing. Mic’anel Davitt’s speech Monday has cre ated quite a sensation aud is believed to ex press the irritation of a large number of Na tionalists at the lethargy of their Liberal allies. Mr. Davitt suggests the immediate inauguration of an anti-eviction oi usade sim ilar to Mr. Gladstone’s memorable Bulgarian atrocity campaign and it is thought that the suggestion will meet with the approval of a majority of the liberal party in and out of parliament, The dissension in tho trades union congress indicates the speedy beginning of a general eight-hour movement with largely increased political activity in its behalf. COMMERCIAL UNION. Hon. Brnstus \Viinan Speaks to Cana dians on th e Subject. S t . T homa .3, Oat, Sept. 5.— A t harvest homo picnic given under the auspices of the East Elgin Farmers’ institute, a t Port Stan ley, Hon. Eraatus Wiman ^oke in favor of closer commercial relations between Canada and tho United States. In the course of hit address he said that the discussion of Cana dian affairs in the United States occupied more and more attention, but nothing ’ ’ been settled, and the ’ ’ ‘ ■ntion, but nothin prospect was that neth- The fact ing would be settled for some time. The fact that Canada was a p a rt of the British empiiv enabled politicians bidding for tho Irish vote to usa the important questions involved for party purposes, but this was not an Unmlxed evil, provided it raised the question to one ol prime importance. Diplomacy bad failed to settle tho fishery puzzle, retaliation wonld fail. _ lliere must be some way soon found to peaceably and profitably arrange matters. The simplest way was the best. The Canadian people would nob consent to annexation, The more immediate practica ble plan which commends itself to business men is to unite tho two countries commer cially by a uniform tariff, thus putting the custom line around the continent instead of across it. The result would be an enlarged market both for the United States manufac turers and Cauaaiau products, I t was sin gular that the politicians bad not seen the availability of this plan to hurt English man* ■ifact'ji ers and thus please tha Irish constitu ents.' 'J’hese aud other considerations led Mr. Wimau to believe that the idea of commer- ilal union and partnership between the two countries would in due time prevail. Those who Icok for political union cannot object to commercial union as a preliminary step, while those who disapprove political union will find in trade partnership all the advantage of a chosen relation without the disadvantage they dread. llie Fire at; San 1 S an F uancisco , Sept. 5.—The loss by yes- t rday'.s fire at San DiegO is $8.50,000, of which $2.50,000 falls upon Klaubes & Levi, giocer.s.
