Fortifications Fight in Senate Over Silver and Guns
In Washington the Senate debated fortification spending and a silver bill, clashing as Mr Cockrell attacked Mr Atkinson's views and Mr Dawes clashed with him. The€ bill advanced with amendments on rifled mortars, Watervliet construction, and a civilian on the Board of Ordnance. Other measures included a western plant for heavy ordnance, a Dover magazine transfer, and an international conference proposal. The Military Academy bill passed and the pension bill was carried over. The session ended with executive business and adjournment.
