Senator Davis argues for an internal revenue tax on rum and tobacco produced in Porto Rico rather than a duty on island products, claiming it would be fair and constitutional. Morgan's free silver amendment fails, while Carter's Alaska mining code amendment advances but no further progress is reported.

Senate Fails to Confirm W. D. Bynum Nomination
In executive session the Senate failed to confirm W. D. Bynum as general appraiser of the government at New York due to lack of a quorum. Opponents argued Bynum is not a Democrat, citing the law requiring four of nine appraisers to be from a different party, while supporters noted his long Democratic allegiance and gold Democrat ties. Additional actions include a bill to appoint an extra U S district judge in Minnesota to ease Judge Lochren’s workload, and Admiral Dewey's Florida banquet hosted by Gen. Joseph Scofield with a garden party at the court. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that a company incorporated in another state cannot recover in a Pennsylvania law suit if it fails to register there.
