Arguments have been used upon the president
to show the absolute necessity of prompt action
on San Domingo, but no clear way presents it.
self. There is no treaty here to present to the
senate; joint resolution of annexation might
be offered, but it would be promptly laid on the
table in the house.
Some of the enemies of annexation suggest
that it would be well for the house to pass a res
olution declaring annexation to be injudicious
at this time and thus put the people of Do
minica out of suspense. When the resolution,
to print the report of the commissioners, is put,
an attempt will be made to debate in the senate.
THE KUKLUx BUSINESS.
The senate has at last got its rule limiting the
business Of the present session so amended that
it can take up the house kukluX bill the mo-
ment it reaches that body. The contest to-day
was simply to enable the senate to proceed to
its consideration without reference to a commit
tee. Mr.. Trumbull says that it will be very much
changed in the senate, and such is the opinion
of other republican senator's Whatever the
change may be, the house will pass it as it comes
back from the senate.
There are from fifteen to twenty republicans
in the house who would like to see the third
and fourth sections materially amended; but
they think that the better way is to pass
the bill about us it stands, and let the senate
amend. Mr.. Beck of Kentucky made power
full speech against the bill to-day, and Mr.
Blair, of Michigan, was equally able in its favor
Mr.. Hears speech, yesterday, is praised as
one of unusual force. The intention now is to
call the previous question some time Monday,
with the understanding that ten minute speeches
shall be permitted on amendments through
Tuesday. If the bill gets to the senate on
Wednesday next, this will be quite necessary.
