Congress Debates Silver Coinage and Public Notices
Regular session notes report resolutions about political bias in employments by engineers, a bill to authorize treasury bonds, and inquiries on coin silver standards. Senate pension funds, Chinese exclusion funding, and McGarraban land claim pass in the House. Bland warns of seigniorage bill voting after veto. Obscure crises, fires, murders, and political motions fill the period with broad national impact and local disasters.
