The week, up to Thursday, was spent by
congress over the San Domingo resolutions.
The house took up the senate resolutions on
Monday, and Butler, cracking his whip over
tue republican members, undertook to force
them through without debate. He failed,
however, to get the requisite two thirds vote,
when he had to agree to allow the resolutions
to be debated until o'clock next day IN 10
minute speeches. The debate was sharp and
severe, more than one member directly charg-
ing the administration with corruption in the
business. An amendment was forced through
by As republicans voting with the democrats
TO the effect that while congress was willing
10 allow commissioners TO go to San Domingo

such action Is not to be construed TO commit
