against any recess or adjournment except over
Sunday until the final vote shall have been taken.

ter, was equivalent to legislation IL was intended

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
The democratic Senator'S. in their caucus consul
tation this evening, unanimously determined that
they would refuse to make any agreement or &C.
cede to any proposition fixing O definite time Tor
closing the debate on the Louisiana question. on
the other hand they decided that no merely lac.
tious opposition should be made by them but
that they would insist upon their right to fully de-
bate the pending resolution In the usual way.
THE HAWAIIAN TREATY.
In the debate on the Hawaiian Reciprocity
Treaty Senator Jones, OF Nevada, after arguing
that the political considerations involved were OF
themselves sufficient to decide the question IN
Iavor OF the ratification, further commended that
the commercial Importance OF this treaty had
been generally overlooked or uuuerestmated
even by Its friends In the Senate. He called at
teption to the TACT that the aggregate amount
OF our commerce With the Sandwich Islands does
not Adequately indicate its real benefit to this
country, for the reason that they purchase from
US class Of articles the value OF which Is made
up in an uncommonly large degree by the cost of
the labor employed, and not by the cost OF the
raw material. Thus, tor example, these islands
import from the United States annually more
than 500, 900 worth OF woodenware, which repre-
sents an expenditure OF over $780, 900 for wages OF
labor in this country and $4,000 worth OF cloth
ing, OF which only one-fourth or one-thrd OF the
value is TO be credited to the raw material. As
another example OF minor importance he
lnstanced the pnchbeck jewelry that We ex-
port to these Islands to the amount OF
$4,000 or $4,000 per annum, OF which at least
eleven-twelfths represent tue wages OF labor EN-.
ployed In It's manufacture. BY these and similar
Illustrations he claimed to show that the ratlfca-
ton OF this treaty would afford great and ben.
ehclal stimulus to numerous industries or the
