Theatre last night rested on a theme which
has been for many years the property of the
drama. 1t treated of a mar who enjoyed ex-
travagantly wealth that was not his own, and
its variation of the old idea lay In the event
that the money, after all, belonged to him.
The exponents, last night, of the play built on
this ancient scheme were a baron and his family,
and q nephew who had spent several years in
America. The baron had inherited an estate
heavily mortgaged. He had quarrelled with
his nephew, and, after the young man had left
in a huff TO make his fortune In the United
States, his uncle discovered among his effects
o lottery ticket. II won the first prize, and with
was able to clear his estates OF debt, But he
knew the nephew would return. so, during

PRESENT WEEK IN THE SENATE.
Dupont Election Case VIII Come Up
for Settlement.

for Settlement.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The senate
probably will pass the agricultural bill early
in the week. Senator Mitchell of Oregon.
chairman Of the committee on privileges
and elections. has given notice of his inten-
tinn to call upgthe Dupont election case on
Wednesday. He will make a speech on this
subject at hthat time, supporting the claim
OF Mr.. Dupont to the vacant Delaware seat
and will boo followed by Senator Turpe in
support of the views Of the minority Sem
ator Pritchard is scheduled to follow Mr.
TurDie and other members of the committee
VIII be heaud later. 1t is not expected the
decision Ofothe senate will be reached dur
ing the present week and the result is as vet
very uncertain. | ~
The republican side of the senate has been
canvassed with the result of ascertaining
that there will be solid republican vote
in supportnefi the proposition to seat Mr.
Dupont but this is one short of majority
and It is not known whether this vote can
be obtained II iis believed the entire demo-
cratic vote1wfH be'east against Dupont The
republicans therefore, rely upon securing at
least part of the popullst vote.
Senator Perry will make another effort
during the week to secure consideration of
the bill providing for settlement of the ac-
counts between the state of Arkansas and
the United States and Senator Mcbride will
make like effort on this bill, providing for
the refunding of $1.25 per acre paid on land
embraced in unearned railroad land grants
The calendar continues to grow and will af-
ford plenty of material for work if circum-
stances permit it to be taken up. 1t is also
probable that Senator Teller will find oppor-,
tunity during the week to discuss the tar
if bill, as it relates to the silver question,
and there may be other speeches in the same
line with an effort to secure vote on the
motion to recommit.

CUBA'S' CAUSE IN CONGRESS-
Will Be the Conspicuous Feature in the
House this Week.
ACTION ON THE RESOLUTION CERTAIN
senate Measure Likely 90 he Ac-
ccptcd in order to Save Time In
Reaching the Desired
M, Position.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The conspicuous
feature of the house proceedings this week
will be in connection with the Cuban reso-
lutions, which the committee on foreign af-
fairs reported, and which are now on the
calendar. After the objection raised by Mr.
Boutele on Thursday last it became almost
certain that unanimous consent could not be
secured for the passage of the resolution.
and. as the senate resolutions were referred
on Friday to the foreign affairs commit
te, 1t is certain that unusual methods will
be required to get the matter before the
house. Two methods are open. Under the
rules the first and second Mondays of each
month are suspension days
Tomorrow, therefore, is one of the days,
when the speaker could recognize Mr.. Hit
to move the passage of the resolutions under
a suspension Of the rules. Such motion
would require two-thrds majority but it
Is not believed dozen votes would be
recorded in opposition. Only thirty minutes
debate on a side would be allowed If such
motion were made. The other way would be
for the committee on rules to bring in a
special order. The general impression is
that the former method will be followed. The
fact that the senate resolutions were re-
ferred to the committee Is taken as an indi-
cation that the majority prefer the house reso-
iutlons, Dut when the matter comes before
the house, unless 1t be a special order, which
would cut off amendments, motion probably
will be made to substitute the senate reso-
lutions. The latter action would have the
advantage of ending the matter. Delay
would be natural incident to the passage
OF a different set of resolutions, by each
house, and the temper of the members is
enthusiastically in favor of action There
has been some talk Of making the resolu-
tions joint instead Of concurrent. in order
that the president may be forced to approve
or reject them. but there is no probability
that this change will be made.
The remainder of the week will be occupied
with appropriation bills. The legislation
which is under consideration will consume
two days. possibly more, and the postoffice
bill VIII probably take up the balance of

WASHINGTON, March 11-Intense inter

showing the demonstrative feeling existing
IN Spain regarding the Cuban question and

Secret Societies Under the Ban as
Much rs Ever.
WASHINGTON, March LIN the view of
Cardinal Satolli, the papal delegate, the only
material change made by the decree, a copy
OF which was published in Chicago, is the
transfer of final authority from Rome to
Washington for passing on certain excep-
tional cases in which the prescription against
secret societies did not operate. The cardinal
says the publication might give the impress
sion that member generally would be
allowed to retain membership on the plea
of the pecuniary losses that he would sus-
tain by withdrawal from the society. This
he said, was not the case, and the societies
are condemned absolutely as before The
only case in which relief is afforded by the
decree, which has been transmitted to all
al chbishops in this country, are the few
where extreme haTdships would be created
through loss of insurance for which pre-
miums had be:n paid regularly for many
years. The adjustment practically will depend
or the pecuniary circumstances of the appeal
ing member and the opinion is expressed
that there are extremely few Catholics en-
titled to so remain on the rolls, even on
these grounds. These appeals heretofore
sent through the respective bishops to Rome
now will be forwarded to the ablegate, either
directly or through the bishops or priests.
The change is expected to create large
amount of extra clerical labor here.

HIGH TENSION IN PUBLIC PLACES
Spnish Feeling stretched Almost to
the Ilrenl>inis Point.

MADRID, March 1.-If one may Judge by
things that have been said ana some of the
things that have been done today, the Span
ish people are enthusiastically determined to
go to war forthwith with the United States
and to speedily ayenge the insult which, it
is fancied. has been offered to the naughty
pride of Spain by the United States senate
in determining to recognizes the Cuban pro-
viSional government belligerent power
and to ask the president to use his good Of
fees with Spain to. obtain recognition CT
Cuban independence, Some Of the organs of
public opinion declare that the bankruptcy
of the Spanish government would not prevent
the Spanish people from taking up the quar-
rel on Their own account and fitting out eX-
petitions and maintaining themselves at their
own expense while combating the insolence
Of the assertions Of the United States.
The day has been characterized by many
manifestations CT public wrath and excite
mont and in Barcelona the Spaniards have
gone to the extreme Of using violence upon
the consulate of the United States and ston-
Ing it, breaking several windows in the
building. No bodily harm was done to any
body, except to certain members of the
crowd, which was charged by the police when
the stones were thrown at the United States
consulate.
There seems TO have been a notable in.
crease OF excitement and patriotic ardor in
the people since yesterday, when the news
OF the senate's action was first made known.
How much this may be due to the fact OF its
being a Sunday, with its accompanying alb
sence Of occupation and the gathering of the
people in public places for what amusement,
entertainment or excitement may be offered,
can only be conjectured. Such a stress Of
feeling as has existed today. II continued for
