Mr.. Jones said he presented the resolution q

practicable. No engineer could complete the re-

Besides, the Commissioners long ago put forth an
offer of rewards for designs, without saying any

WASHINGTON, Thursday, Feb. 4, 1888.
The debate in the Senate to-day on the Kansas
question was one of the most exciting OF the ses-
sion. Senators Brown and Green combined TO
crush out Mr. Wilson. The Massachusetts, SEN
stor repelled their attack in two speeches with
great force and spirit, and in very animated
msnner He had decidedly the best OF the con-
test. and was warmly congratulated by Republican
Senators on his success.
In the caucus of Anti-Lecompton Democrats,
last night, the main proposltion was TO choose oy
election the Select Committee, TO whom the Kan
sss question shall be referred instead OF leaving
its appointment TO the Speaker. The caucus could
not be brought to unSnmity on this proposition.
The Republicans were all for it.
To-day il was sgreed to make the contest SIMPLY
on the issue of substituting Select Committee Tor
the Committee on Territories.
II was also agreed to force vote to-day on the
reference to Select Committee; but the unex-
pectedlylopg debate on the case of Lewis Campbell
frustrated this plan. All Anti-Lecomptonites were
present except Messrs. Edie Roberts Matteson
sni Murray, who are absent from the city. Messrs
Dawes. Kunkel and Hickman have returned.

to in the Messages were laid over with some feel

Will giant an extension of time to Mr.. Campbell IN
the election case.

pubicans in making il test vote on Harrlss reso-
mtions, which the Administration IS prepared 10
accept The Lecomptonites supposed to-day that
they could command small majority; but II there
are twenty five defauters there is no reasonable
prospect of this, though several Republicans are

Gus last night was to elect Special Committee OF
thirteen, but the unequal distribution failed of sat
