SENATOR JONES ON SPANISH CLAIMS.
In the debate to-day in the Senate ON
tne Dill to send the French spOliation
claimants to the Court of Claims, Senator
Jones, Of Florida, attacked the provision
III the bill, which seemed designed, he
sad, to exclude Spanish claims from the
court. He saw no reason why these latter
should have been alluded to at all in this
Dill, but as they had been he would say
that they were at least as meritOrious and
indisputable as French spOliation claims.
and he made a brief but f0rcible argument
IN support Of this view.

the express and stage offices in the three

Congress Will Probably Adjourn About
the First Of August-The Members
Desiring Adjournment.
WASHINGTON, july 16. - The
Tariff debate will probably be re-
sumed in the Senate tomorrow.
The Navy Appropriation bill has
been reported, but it is the present
intention of the Republican managers
to hold that bill back until the Inter-
nal Revenue bill is disposed Of. The
impression among Senators and Re-
personalities of both parties is that
the session will be protracted much
after August LIST.
Beck will repeat the tariff speech
he has already said three times this
session, but the debate on the bill is
not expected to last more than four
days, after which the voting will be :
gin.
Representative Whitthorne said to-
day that he thought the discussion OF
the Senate amendments would occupy
very little time in the House, as there
was such a general desire on the part
OF the members to adjourn.
The Conference Committee on the
River and Harbor bill will begin to-
morrow, and the Senate will rush the
Naval and Sundry Civil bills through
as soon as the Revenue bill is dis
posed Of.
A Republican caucus will be held
early this week to take definite action
regarding the expediency of settling
one or two of the pending election
cases before adjournment.
