Congressional

WASHINGTON, March lin the
Senate to day Hoar was recognized on
his resolution postponing the entire
Cuban question until April 9th, di-
recting the Committee on Foreign
Relations to make Inquiries in the
meantime. At 2 o'clock Hoar, with
out finishing his speech, asked that
the resolution go over without preju
dice. Platt and others desired fur
ther debate on it. Morgan objected,
and the resolution went TO the calen
dar from which it cannot be taken
except by a vote of the Senate. The
consideration of the Dupont election
was then resumed.
The House Committee OH Agricul-
ture, by vote of nine TO six, decided
to lay upon the table the Acti Option
(Hatch) bill. This practically kills
the measure for this Congress.
Quiggs amendment to reduce the
appropriation for PostoNice Inspectors
was carried by l62 to 63. Quigg's
amendment was aimed at the so
called letter carriers spy system, and
was hotly attacked IN the debate by
Quigg (Republican) and Cummings
(Democrat). Mcmillan of Tennessee
replied that the speeches we're a
partisan attack on the adminlstra
ton.
The Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations to day resumed the consid-
Grafton of the bill providing for tele
graphic cable line between this coun
try and the Hawaiian Islands but
adjourned without arriving at any
definite conclusion. II was apparent
that the majority of the committee
are favorable to granting government
aid in the construction of the cable,
but it is not clear whether they
united upon either of the proposed
lines to the exclusion of others. Sena-
tors Gray, Turpie and Mills are OPP
posed to granting a subsidy. The
Committee is disposed to rush the
question to a speedy conclusion.
