Active In Movements of Rebels.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-General

cuban revolutionists in their last war,
lasting from 1868 to 1878. is in this

Gates Palma and Quesada upon the in

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The report
from the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations on the Monroe doctrine reso-
lutions tomorrow will probably cause
the subject to divide the time with the
Senate free coinage substitute to the
House bond bill, which is still the un-
finished business.
The extreme position taken by the
committee resolutions in one direction,
and those of Sewell of New Jersey in
the other, win give the debate wide
range. Davis has been instructed by
the committee to urge prompt action on
the resolution, and while it cannot
supersede the financial question as the
unfinished business, it viii probably
receive much discussion this week.
The committee resolutions will doubt
less be discussed by Messrs. Morgan,
Sherman, Cullom, Lodge, Frye, Davis
and others in favor, and antagonized
probably by Gray. It is believed that
the result will be almost unanimous in
favor of their adoption, and the vote
may be taken this week.
Teller and Daniels have given notice
that they will speak this week on the
financial question, and White and Cock
rell may also speak.
Additional interest to the weeks pro-
ceedings will be given should the FL
nance Committee report the tariff bill.
This will be done, it is understood, with
out another meeting being held. The
nature of the report will depend upon
the position taken by Jones of Nevada.
Should he still insist upon increasing
the duty on raw sugar, an adverse re
port will be made; should he vote with
the Republicans, then the bill will be
reported as it came from the House. As
soon as Jones signifies how he desires
to vote the bill will be reported. This
may be tomorrow.
IN THE HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-In the
House Of Representatives the pro-
gramme of business for the coming
week is about as follows:
The urgency deficiency bill will be re-
ported by the Committee on Appropria-
tions Monday, and it is expected that
immediate consideration will be given
it.
Following that the bill making ap-.
propriations for the military academy
for the next fiscal year will be taken
up. But little time will be occupied
in considering these, and opportunities
for action on bills by unanimous re-
quest will be numerous.
During the week the Committee on
Ways and Means will give several hear
ings On Monday advocates of a bill
to establish a Sub-Treasury at Savan-
nah will be heard. and on Wednesday
will be held the final hearing on the
Customs Administrative Act.
