CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPREsE NATIVES,
Friday, Jan. 10. 1907.
GILL FOR PAPERS,


Mr.. j. Randolph, after quoting that
part Of the Presidents message relating
TO MIR. Burr, said he had waited with
anxious sOlicitude for some official in
formation on this subject but the as
pect Of affairs on theMissisippi was now
such that he could no longer be silent
THAT Spain, it concerned at all, must
be the plaintiff, not the defendant in this
case. The most prompt and efficacious
means were now necessary. He did
not think the executive could have any
information on this subject to which
the house was not entitled. 1t appear
cd from evidence taken under the direc-
ton of the Legislature of Kentucky, that
Spain has ever since 1898, been endea-
voring to separate the Western from
the Atlantic States. Perhaps at the
moment he was addressing the house
the fate Of the Western Country was
decided. A bill for authorising the
president to accept of volunteers has
been before you; member Of that com
mittee (Mr. Chandler) informed me
that he had proposed an augmentation
OF the troops, as that member is DOM
esdcated in the family of the Secretary
at war-Mr. r. presumed the Secrcsa-
ny approved.
1t instead of pen, ink and paper, said
he, had you last session given men and
arms, neither external foes nor domes-
tic, need have been dreaded. The ex-
Pences of the campaign proposed las,
session would not have been Sc great as
those occasioned from the want Of rails
ing few troops.
Here we sit and adjourn, and adjourn
and sit; like SO many school-boys, te
do as we are bid !; to come here and &c
hone again.
Mr.. K, then offered resolution t
the following effect -
ReSotUed, That the President of tn,
United States be requested to furnish
TINS House with any information il
possession OF the Executive, excepting
such as he may deem the public welfar,
may require not to be disclosed, touch
ing any Illegal combinations of privat,
individuals against the peace and safet,

its would permit, would not afford any 50

and srtful adventure Ia . keeping il uIs1

Orleans are in constant alarm, for the safety
oftheir city; but this reasonable business,
if there is any, cannot long remain in this

The third Bavarian regiment Of infantry
having approached a village not far from
Schleitz, required supply Of bread and ior-
age. The inhabitants, however, instead of
complying with their desire, armed them
selves with scythes and other weapons, and
being assisted by the Doors of three neigh
boring villages, attacked the Lieutenant
who made the requisition, wounded him,
and killed some OF his men. Inconsequence
OF this, General Mezzanelli ordered the
village to be surrounded and burnt down bv
three companies of infantry, and SQUADRON
