Little Prospect Of an Early Vote ON the
,.. .."a.a Cuban Rssolutions. -
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The indi-
cations are that tho Cuban question
and the Dupont election case will con-
tinue to claim the greater share OF the
attention Of the senate during the pres
ent week, though other matters will DO
undoubtedly considered at different
times. There is an understanding that
in case it is made apparent that the
Cuban matter can be speedily disposed
of, the managers for Mr.. Dupont will
not stand In the way.
Senator Sherman is exceedingly do
sirous Of getting the Cuban resolutions
out of the way at the earliest practical
BILE time and will press consideration.
The senators who are opposing the res
olutions are, however, not inclined to
fall in with this design, and there is
now no prospect of an immediate vote
on the conference report. 1t is init
mated that the president is likely to
send . message to the senate on tho
Cuban question in response to Senator
Hoar's resolution Of inquiry, and II he
should do so it unQuestionably will
have influence either in expediting or
retarding final consideration of the
question in the senate.

while he was looking after the express matter that came of the train, and two masked men faced him when he entered. They closed the door and locked it, made him deliver the money and then, at the muzzle of a pistol, ordered him to get into bed and cover up his head. There was cot in the office, and the agent said he did as the robbers ordered, but that he gave the alarm as soon as they were off. Blcod- hounds were engaged to follow the trail of the supposed robbers, but the scent was lost in the busy streets of the city. Search was made for a sup posed band of criminals who had been previously operating in the Cripple Creek district, but finally the pursuit seemed to have been abandoned.
 The father of Krout arrived in Colo rado Springs January Fist from Cerro Gordo, H., aud as he was frequently seen in consultation with the express agent in out-of-the-way places he was constantly shadowed. Tuesday oflast week, when he boarded the train at Colorado Springs, the detectives got on to keep him company and find out something about his affairs and where he was going. He had ticket to Fort Worth, Texas. At Walsenberg he was arrested and taken from the train. He was searched and s4,60O in cash found on his person, of which s4,3e0 was sewed to the inside of his shirt. In the ordinary black grip which he carried was found sl6O more, and $40 was brought to light rolled up in shirt. The same night the son was arrested at Colorado Springs, at the instance of the company's detectives, who believe the money found on the father a part of the money lost at the time of the robbery last November.

Building and Loan Association.

Tuesday evening the stockholders of the Nogales Building and Loan Asso- citation held their regular annual meeting. About 300 shares of the stock were represented. The annual financial report, synopsis of which appears in the advertising columns of TIE OASIS this week, was read and adopted. The election of three trus- tees to fill vacancy caused by expira- tion of their terms resulted in the selection of Messrs. P. J. Zeimet, Ed. Titcomb and N. Burgoon-all re-elecJ- ed. The stockholders meeting then adjourned and meeting of the board of directors was held. For the ensu- ing year the old corps of officers were reelected, as follows: ED. Williams, president; P. J. Zeimet, vice president; Ed. Titcomb, secretary; John Dessart, treasurer. The board adjourned to meet next Monday evening to consi- der bids for loan.
 The condition of the association as shown in the report is very gratifying, and all interested feel that the Mo- gales Building & Loan Association is an institution of great benefit to the town.
