WASHINGTON NOTES.
Correspondence with European Nations
Regarding Cuba Called For.
The RumOred ACtl0n OF the Texas ana
Pacific Committee Canard.
The Three Million Appropriation Bill
Has Not Reached the Committee.
Is There q Dc Jure Government In
Louisiana, Is the Senatorial
Question.

WASHINGTON, January 22.--rhe real
obstruction to Pinchback's admission
to the Senate, ut present, is the ques-
ton whether there is de jure govern
ment In Louisiana. Until this ques.
ton Is settled by the committee on
Privileges and Elections, Pinchback
will not succeed in obtaining the vote
of the Senate. Should Governor Kel.
logg, according to Republican rumor,
appoint new man he would stand
In n better position than Pinchback.
WASHINGTON, January 22,-There Is
mistake about the action of the Com
mittee on the Texas and Pacific.
Nothing has been done beyond the or
ganization. The three million apprO-
driation has not even reached the COM
mittee.
The Republicans of the House and
Senate hold their first session tonight.
In the House resolution was adopt
ed calling for the correspondence with
European nations, other than Spain,
regarding Cuba.
The Senate Finance Committee has
agreed to report favorably on Senator
Howe's bill for the appointment of a
commission on the subject OF alcoholic
liquor traffic, and to recommend its
passage with a certain amendment,
the most important being require
ment that fermented liquors, and the
manufacture of all kinds of liquor,
shall be included in the proposed in
quiry.
Respecting the negotiations between
Spain and the United States II is semi
officially reported that the Washing
ton Government, not having replied
to the Spanish note of the fifteenth OF
November, 1875, nor having officially
communicated at Madrid the contents
of the American circular note to
European powers, all reports of a ia
vorable reply from Spain may be re-
garded as destitute of foundation.
