remain in the bill. No Appropriation
is made for the Hennepin canal, but a
board of three engineers is appointed
to consider the value OF the proposed
canal to the commercial interet Is of
the country. Nothing in this clause,
however, commits the government to
improvements. The irieIds OF the
Hennepin, about fory.fve in number,
are greatly disappointed at the result.
They prefer no bill at ell to a bill
leaving their scheme out in the cold.
They boldly assert that the President
would prefer to have The bill die 10 the
House than to take the responsibility
Of signing it. From information OBJ
taingble tonight, however, your CORE
spondent learns that the bill will re-
ceive Executive sanction. Over g.
100000 is approplia ei for the Misss
sippi river.
HoAR's BLOODY SHIRT BREAK,
When the adjournment resolution
was reparted back by Mr.. Allison IN
the Senate today, Mr.. Hoar made sat
speech sgsiI 81 it, atitg that be would
object to adjournment until the Sen
ate had considered be bill reported
by him in April for inuests OF Sjuth-
ern outTa2es under nalonsl authority.
Mr.. Kenna arose az Gca and protest
ed against the dsliveyof a speech in
the closir G hours OF tie SESSION, which
he characterized rs campaign d Gu.

Republican Senators franks over the
country. MI. SALISBURY also con-
demned the remarks of Mr..
Holr in sewers TENS, and open
ly stated that lie was salts

THE CUTTING CAsR.
is the absorbing question here. An
attempt will be made tomorrow to
put resolutions tnrouth both houses.
The action of the M 2can authorities
is awaited with eagsnes,. There is
nothii G for the United States to con-
cede. The Is us are Drawn and the
pos ton of Mr.. Bsyard B certainly cor
rect, The absuldi y of Mexico's dip
lomatic procedure is APPARENT. Should
she refuse to release Cutting, it is said
Minister Jackson will BIB recalled and
the future movements OF this govern
ment will he both prsmpS and strin-
gent. There is talk Of war, but it is
not believed Mexico will provoke such
| extreme measures. The coure Of
this government has teen beth diplo-
N attic and dgn,fisd, but it is not the
intention of the admiuistr Jtion to sub
NIT to the de ention OF Cutting, and
lis immedi e release is demanded.
A @ MPLIMRST TO uPsHAw.
The Critic says tonight: "The ap.
pointmant and confirmation of Gen
Alex b. Upshaw, OF Tennessee, as
Assis tant Indlap Commissioner, was a
veil me ed promotion. In securing
GIN. Up'hsw as chief clerk, upon
assuming the Office of Iniian Com
mslouet, Gen Atkins obtained the
services OF man em.neutly qualified.
Gan Upshaw's unanimous copfrma-
on by the SENATE, w.tnolt first hav-
ing passed the usual clmmittse ex-
aminaiun, was in itself as or, at a
compliment as could have been be-
slowed on him"
