HAWAIIAN QUESTIONS IN ORDER
Several Republican Senator's Have
Hot Words Ready.
NICARAGUA BILL HOLDS ITS. PLiCE.
In the House Currency and ApprOpria'
tons for Public Buildings Are the
Topics for Consideration.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-The prospect in
the Senate this week is for more talk than
accomplishment When the Senate adj
journed yesterday the Senate's attitude
toward Hawaii, the proposed recession
from the Senate amendments to the in
come tax appropriation and the Nicaragua
bill all occupied in the different ways,
technically considered, the position Of I'M
finished business. The income tax will
have the right of way by virtue of its be-
ing part of an appropriation bill.
The Hawaiian question will in all proba-
bility, be considered in the morning hour
Monday morning if not crowded out by
the debate on the income tax. There are
known to be several Senators, most, if not
all of them, on the Republican side,
anxious to express their views on the
Hawaiian problem, and Judging from their
private expressions the remarks to be
made will in some instances be very
pointed. Senator Hill is also expected to
stand out for his income tax amendment.
The Nicaragua question still holds its
place at the head of the calendar for con-
.sideration daily after o'clock. Senator
Morgan said to-day that he was still hope
full of securing a vote on this bill before the
close OF the week, but if there should be
many Interruptions he may again be dis
appointed. Senator Turpie has the floor
for reply to Mr.. Morgan, and it is ex-
pected he Will make characteristic speech.
There will also be other addresses on this
subject before the vote is finally taken.
Senator Cockrell expects to ask to have
u T., G.1I %o1-
up as soon as the urgent deficiency bill is
out of the way and thinks there will be no
difficulty in getting it through during the
week. The friends of the bankruptcy and
Territorial admission bills are growing
anxious concerning the fate of those meas
ures and are beginning to be apprehensive
that time may not be left for their consid-
Grafton if the Nicaragua bill be not soon
disposed of.
The present prospect is against revival
of the financial and currency question in
the Senate during the week, but much will
depend upon the action of the Finance
Committee Tuesday and also upon the
attitude OF the House Of Representatives.
This promises to be busy week in the
House. The programme arranged by the
ODI1ulllbCG Ol INUlco DClO4S bnS QSDdIbuIC
of Speaker Crisp for Asheville, n. c., last
night contemplates the consideration of
public building bills on the calendar, to be
followed by the Indian appropriation bills
now under consideration, the sundry civil
and the agricultural appropriation bills.
The Committee on Rules, after much urg-
ing, decided to bring in cloture rule to
secure vote on the bill for a new public
building at Chicago, to cost 100000.
Two hours will be given tomorrow for the
consideration of the measure, after which
the vote Will be taken. The Improvements
for the New York public buildings are pro-
vided for in the sundry civil bill. The
other public building bills are: Newport,
KY, 100000; Cumberland, Md, $4,000:
South Omaha, Nebr., 100000; Patterson,
N. J., $3.50, 900; BrookIine, Mass, $75, 900,
and Pottsville, Pa, 100000.
The programme as arranged for the week
may be subject to change in case Springer,
chairman of the Committee on Banking
and Currency, decides before the end of
the week to bring forward his new meas
ure. He has been in constant consultation
with Secretary Carlisle for the past week
and is very sanguine that concessions can
be made to the silver men which will in
duce them to withdraw their opposition,
Yesterday he expressed the opinion he
would bring forward the modified bill this
week and that it would pass. This opinion,
however, is not generally shared by the
Democratic leaders of the House, most of
whom do not hesitate to say they believe
all hope of currency legislation at this
session is dead
It is also possible that the resolution for
the impeachment of Judge Kicks may be
before the House before the end of the
week, but the fact that the Committee on
Judiciary decided Friday to reopen the
case is interpreted to mean delay which
viii render any attempt to push the case
against him at this session abortiYe.
Next Saturday, by a special order, will
be set aside for eulogies on the late Senator
Colquitt of Georgia. 1t is not improbable
for Boutelle to attempt to secure considera-
ton of his Hawaiian resolution and thus
a debate on this subject be precipitated in
some form.
