Tunis, dated the 10th inst, says: "The ma
rauding bands, who have hitherto confined
themselves to the districts east and south

Algeria. 1t is understood that some
mountain tribes of the border have

tain to what extent. Most of the French

They do Not Want the Kellogg Case
Brought Up.

They do ~ OF want the hellORg Shse
Brought Up.
WASHINGTON, January l7.7The Re-
publican Senators held a caucus this
mOrning, at which it was determined
that when the Kellogg case comes up in
Senate, the Republicans will submit a
motion, to say the whole subject be laid
on the table, and that if this motion does
not prevail, they will endeavor TO pre-
vent the adoption OF resolution un-
seating Kellogg by all parliamentary re-
sources in their power. The sentiment
OF the caucus was, that il an extra ses-
sion of Congress be made necessary, IN
the consequence OF prolonged struggle
for the passage OF this resolution the
Democrats must take the responsibility.
A committee was appointed to report
on the general order OF business.

were obliged to investigate questions in
regard to appropriations, pursuant TO
the recommendation OF the Mississippi

had also necessarily, TO examine care
fully into other questions OF the appro
priation for the reservoir system at the
head waters OF the Mississippi river.
The Commission did not intend 10 ex-
ceed SS,OOO,OOO, and the Mississippi i'm.
provements and the appropriations
therefore would have a mater al bearing
upon the appropriations for other works.
