During debate over an amendment proposed by this man, Senator Edmunds of Vermont ordered the Syllabus of Errors to be read aloud. A resolution offered by this man, in which he quoted the 14th Amendment, became the focus of the Teller Committee on post-Reconstruction voting in the South. He tried to mollify the American response to the USS Baltimore incident using contacts he made as chair of the first Pan-American Conference. This author of the Mulligan Letters was tarnished when the New York World reported a sermon from Samuel Burchard about the "Rum, Romanism, and Rebellion" of his opponent. For 10 points, name this Secretary of State under Benjamin Harrison, a Speaker of the House and failed 1884 presidential candidate called the "Continental Liar from the State of Maine."
