Hawaiian Treaty Reports Split Senate Over Continuance
Two Senate reports on the 1875 reciprocity with Hawaii were presented. The majority urges continuation and permanence, citing national benefits and preventing European competition, while the minority favors terminating the treaty to pursue more reciprocal terms with the Sandwich Islands. Fred Douglass marries Helen M Pitts in a private New York ceremony. The Greeley relief expedition gains approval, to be a volunteer-led effort, with funding unrestrained. The Ironclad oath is abolished, ending two forms of congressional oaths and signaling political reconciliation.
