WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-At noon to
morrow the second session of the Fifty
first congress will begin. AS soon as
the senate and house are called to order
joint committee will be appointed to
notify the president that congress is
ready to do business, 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 legislative
day OF Monday, following the induction
of new congressman into Office. In
neither house has the programme of
business for the week been def
nitely determined. The senate will
probably resume consideration of
the bill providing for the trans
fer of the revenue marine service to the
navy department., which is the pending
morning hour business. If calendar
routine is followed the Edmunds land
cour bill may next be considered; and,
S )uld 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 eight
hour claims. There is strong i'm
preston. however, that there will be
consultation of Republican senators
early In the week to consider an order
of business, and the result may be q
wide departure from the routine
programme. In the house the pen
sion appropriation bill will be
reported at once by the COM
mittee on appropriations, and
pushed to final disposition. The Dem
Ocratic members have prepared them
selves to take advantage of the lati-
tude allowed in general debate on an
appropriation bill, and will doubtless
stir up their political adversaries to the
point of reply by severe criticism of the
majority and illusions to the results of
the recent elections. 1t is possible that
an urgent deficiency bill," GOVERN ng
deficits in the current years appropri-
ations for the census and other bureaus,
may also be presented to the house
during the week. If any time remains
undisposed of, the committee on rules
will allot it to committees in charge of
such important pending measures as
the majority may determine to give pre-
cedence.

SEEK A COAST PATROL.
An Outrage Committed by Spanish
SmuGSlerS.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Nov. 3O.-A spe-
cial from Punta Gordo says: News has
just reached here of an outrage COM
mitted by Spanish smugglers on the
port sanitary inspector in Charlotte
harDor. His name is Morris Cochran,
an appontee of the state board of
health. He boarded Spanish schooner,
and when asked to show his papers the
crew seized him and threw him over
board, afterwards cutting his boat
loose. With much difficulty he reached
the shore. The schooner sailed off and
her name could not be learned.
The state health officer, Porter,
has made all official complaint to
the. treasury department and marine
hospital service. besides notifying the
state department that Spanish vessels
are continually violating international
law and treaty obligations by fishing
in Florida waters inside the marine
league limit. Cuba has placed high
duty on American fish, and this, with
violations of the law. has broken the
export fish business from Key West,
which formerly amounted to S1OO,OOO or
more, annually, and the state health
board asks for a coast patrol. A revenue
cutter is insufficient.
