WASHINGTON, March 17.-The Edmunds
resolution, which the senate has been consid-
ering in the last two or three executive ses-
s1ons, is conditional declaration of war
against Guatemala and Honduras. 1t recites
the well-known facts in regard to
the attempt of Barrios to override
the four Central American states
and then declares that in view of our interest
in Nicaragua, his course is unfriendly to the
United States and warns him that if he does
not desist it will be the duty of the United
States to use whatever means may be
NECESSARY TO STOP HIM.
This resolution was rather languidly
debated to-day because most of
the debate has already occurred,
and because very few senators have been op-
posing the resolution. The resolution was
adopted by vote of 40 to z, the affirmative
vote being cast by both Republicans and
Democrats, and the negative vote consisting
OF five or six Democrats and one or two Re-
pubicans. Among the Democrats of the
minority were Blackburn Of Kentucky and
Ransom and Vance of North Carolina.
There was proposition made to remove
the injunction of secrecy from the COM
munication of Secretary Bayard, and Senator
Edmunds wanted the injunction of
SECRECY REMOVED,
not only from his resolution, but from the
vote upon it. Mr.. Morgan objected to the
removal of the injunction of Sc
crecy from these matters, until he
was assured that Secretary Bayard was not
only willing, but very desirous that his letter
should go to the public. Mr.. Morgan then
withdrew his objection, but Mr.. Sherman
at once renewed it and the matter goes over
to the next executive session, with strong
probability that the senate will then make
public all these
CENTRAL AMERICAN DOCUMENTS.
One curious thing is that for years the two
greatest stickers for the sanctity of the exec
utive sessions and literature were Senators
Bayard and Edmunds. Now Secre-
taIy Bayard is anxious that the
public should have tine benefit of his
first state paper, and Senator Edmunds,
having assumed an aggressively American
attitude toward pigmy Central American
state, and being supported therein by large
majority of the senate, not only wants the
public to know what valiant patriot he is.
but he wants the public to know who are the
seven men so lacking in true American
spirit that they voted against his resolution.

duets, the material prosperity of Ireland
would be more quickly developed, her lnan-
cial independence be secured and her politi-

Evans stubborn About Going Out and the
New Commissioner is Laid Over.
Special to the Globe.
WAsH1xGToN, March 17-The nomination
of Joseph Miller to be commissioner of in
ternal revenue was not confirmed by the
senate to-day, but doubtless will be to-mOr-
row. 1t seems that when Mr.. Manning be-
came secretary of the treasury he was waited
upon by the heads of the several bureaus,
who verbally Informed him that their resig
nations were at his disposal. Among these
was Mr. Evans, the present commissioner,
and when it became time to make change
in the head of the internal revenue bureau
the secretary directed that in the nomination
Of Mr. Miller be inserted, ''Nice Evans,
resigned"
When the nomination Of Miller was made
public at the capitol Yesterday, Mr.. Evans was
appriscd of its reception, as above stated.
This morning he raised the point, through a
Republican senator, that he had not written
any formal resignation, nor was it his inten-
ton to do so. Secretary Manning was ad-
viscd of the state of affairs. and, after con-
shifting Mr.. Evans, who adhered to the posi-
ton indicated. the secretary told the COM
missioner that if he insisted upon
it me would have the nomination
withdrawn and have the word removed" in
serted in place of resigned Mr. Evans
inumated that such would be his preference,
consequently Secretary Manning, through the
president, withdrew the nomination, and the
alteration was made and returne TO the sem
ate, thus technically making ii a new nomi-
nation, and under the rules of the
senate on receiving one objection it
necessarily went over day. In the debate
in executive session to-day it was developed
that the nomination of Miller was regarded
as a good one, ana the leading Republicans
expressed themselves as being satisfied with
it. They recognized the right of the presi-
dent to make such changes in the heads of
bureaus as he desires and indicated that there
would be no opposition made to such sp-
poiutmcnts.
