WASHINGTON, March %. 1896.--In the
Senate, today, on motion OF Mr.. Sher-
man Rep.. o., the conference report on
the Cuban resolutions was taken up; but
Mr.. Cullom Rep., Ill.J gave notice that
after his colleague dr. Palmer) had adj
dressed the Senate he would move to
take up the Legislative Appropriation
BILL
Mr. Call (Dem., Fla.) suggested that
the vote should be taken today on the
Cuban resolutions.
Mr. Sherman stated that he was as
anxious as anyone could be to have ac-
ton on the Cuban resolutions He
would even be glad to have evening ses-
sioEs for considering that subject He
thought that. with warfare going on in
Cuba the Senate owed it TO itself and
to the ordinary sense of humanity to have
the question disposed of without delay.
He would, therefore, endeavor to hold
the matter before the Senate
Mr.. Platt Rep.. Conn.) remarked that
the, trouble was that the three Senators
who constituted the Conference Commit
tee ON the part of the Senate had agreed
without very much delberation to throw
aside and abandon the resolutions passed
passage of. the House resolutions. He
yentured to say that there was not five
senators who approved OF the House res
olutions- He suggested that Mr.. Sher-
man should move a disa agreement on the
conference report and ask further con-
ference.
Mr.. Palmer took the floor He re-
called the anecdote of the man who ran
SO fast to get in out of the rain that he
fell, and, when asked why he ran SO
fast, said he was afraid the rain would
be over before he got into shelter The
application of the anecdote was that he
(Mr; Paimer) thought that the matter
might be adjusted and withdrawn from
the Senate before he would have an op-
ter.)
After Mr.. Palmer had begun his speech
Mr.. Sherman. broke in with a notice that
he would, at the conclusion OF Mr.. Palm
er's speech, Nask unanimous consent to

and another conference asked for,
Mr.. Palmer objected.

agreed with the conference report on the
