A Sanitary Inspector Roughly Handled
by Smugglers.
JACKSONVILLE. FLA, Nov. 30.-A special
from Punta Gorda to the Times linton
says: "News has just reached here of an
outrage committed by Spanish smugglers
on the port sanitary inspector in Charlotte
harbor. His name is Morris Cochran, and
he was appointed by the state board Of
health. He boarded a Spanish schooner.
When asked to show papers the crew seized
him and threw him overheard, afterward
cutting his boat loose With much difficulty
he reached the shore. The schooner sailed

The Presidents Message to be Read
soon after the Opening.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-At noon to-
morrow the second session Of the Fifty-first
congress will begin. As soon as the Senate
and the House are called to order, a Joint
committee will be appointed to notify the
President that congress is ready to do busi-
ness, and. in response, his annual message
will Immediately be sent to the capitol and
laid before both Houses. The reading of
the message will probably consume the leg
isla,ive day Of Monday, following the in
ductlon OF the new congressman into Office.
THE WEEK IN THE SENATE.
In neither house has the programme of
business for the week been definitely de-
termined upon. The Senate will probably
resume the consideration Of the bill provid-
ing for the transfer of the revenue marine
service 20 the navy department. which is
the pending morning hour business. II the
calendar routine is followed Mr.. Ed
munds' land court bill may next
be considered, aud should Senator
Blair reach the capital during the
week he will doubtless make an effort to
secure action upon the House bill for the
adjustment Of the eight-hour claims. There
is a strong impression, however, that there
will be consultation of the republican SEN
ators early in the week to consider the order
of business, and the result may be wide
departure from the routine programme.
OUTLOOK OF THE HOUSE,
In the House the pension appropriation bill
will be reported at once by the committee
on appropriations, and pushed 20 a final
disposition. The democratic members
have prepared Themselves to take edvant-
age of the the latitude allowed In general
debate on an appropriation bill and will
doubtless stir up their political adversaries
to poInt of reply by severe criticism
Of the majority and illusions to-
the result of the recent elections.
It is possible that the urgent deficiency
bill.' covering deficits in the current years
appropriations for the census ard other
bureaus, may also be presented to the House
during the week. If any time remains
undlsposed Of, the committee on rules will
allot it to the committees In charges of such
important pending measures as the ma
jorIty may determine To give precedence.
