Senate Debates Geary bill and navy appropriations in Washington
Washington April 13. The Senate confronted the Chinese exclusion issue with a substitute to the Geary bill proposing ten year restrictions on Chinese immigration. The Geary bill was laid aside for the present, while a broader discussion on silver and other topics continued. The Senate also passed a wheat grading standard for inter state commerce and heard speeches by Senators Morgan and Stewart. In the House, the naval appropriation bill for a dry dock at Algiers faced objections over a new clause and was debated alongside the cost of a cruiser. After hours of discussion, the chamber adjourned to tomorrow with time allocations set.
