Washington, March 3.-The senate
spent nearly four and a half hours in
session this afternoon-from till $50
and then took "A recess until p. m.
The naval appropriation bill was under
consideration for most OF the time-the
pending question being on the amend
ment reported from the committee on
appropriations to reduce the number
oil battleships to be contracted for from
three to two. Many speeches were made
on each side of the question, but no
vote was reached There was an un-

would be taken before 10 p. m.

Little Accomplished in the House.
The Sabbath day session OF the house
was productive of but little in the way
of accomplished legislation. Numerous
requests for unanimous consent were
made, but generally wherever an ap-
preparation was required to make the
measure effective-and In some cases
where no money was inyolved-it met

Mr.. Sickles, Of New York, who made an
effective fve-minute speech, in which
he quoted President Lincoln's appre-
vice.
A bill to pension the widow of General
