The resolution Of MIR. Allen relating
to the senate restaurant was then taken
up and Mr.. Allen addressed the senate
ut some length He thought the res
taurant should not be furnished by the

Senators Haley and Henderson both
said that the best interests of the SEN

At O'Clock the senate proceeded to
the consideration of the Nicaragua bill,
make speech on tho bill,
but before he began, the senate, on
motion OF Mr.. Squire (Republlcnn) of
Washington, passed a bill granting an
American register to the vessels Linda

that the canal should be built by sec
tons and asserted that the cost would
be three times greater to build 1t than
IL constructed IN the ordinary manner.
As Morgan declared that il the sena-

of the successful completion of the
