Mr.. HILL AGAINST THE REPORT
The Report Too Much Like Threat ana
Putting Intervention ON Low
d-Contcsted Election
Cases i'm the House.

Washington. March 12.-The confer
ence report on the Cuban beiligerency
resolution was again up in the sehate
today, and two speeches We're mace
upon it. The first was by Mr.. tili
Dem, n. " announcing his purpose
of voting against the conference report.
and stating the reason which induced
him to take that position, after haNlnE
voted for the resolution that passed
the senate. His opposition was to the
third clause of the conference report
which proclaimS the purpose OF the
United States to be prepared to inter-
vene in order to protect the legitimate
interests of the United States. lie OPP
posed the resolution as being liable to
misinterpretation and as being unnec-
ossary and therefore unwise. He
though it was too much like threat.
too much like q buncombc and that II
was putting intervention on too low
ground. He could not vote for 1t, ana
as a conference report is not amendabie,
he would have. 10 vote against the re-
port.
The action of the committee on foreign
relations and of the senate conferees
was defended by Mr., Sherman: and
then the matter went over till tomor~
row-Mr. Morgan (Dem,. Ala) having
the oor. 1t was subsequently stated
nous consent tomorrow To take up the
conference report displacing temporar-
lily the Delaware election case: and
that if objection We're made he would
move to take il up. so that the matter
would be decided by Il majority vote.

To seat in the senate, from the state
of Delaware, Il number of bills were

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
The house spent all of today in con-
sidering contested election cases. one
of them, that of II. Dudley Coleman vs..
Charles +. Buck. from the Second Lou
isiana district. was disposed of without
debate by the adoption of the resoiu-
tons unanimously reported by election
committee No. , that Coleman tRe-
publicam was not elected and that Buck
ODemocraD had been and was entitled
to his seat. Debate upon the other
William +. Aldrich vs.. Castor y. Rob
bins, from the Fourth Alabama dis
trct, was begun and continued for sew
cral hours. under an agreement that
scver hours should be allowed for de-
bate In this case there were three re-
ports. two by the Republican majority.
agreeing that Aldrich was elected and
should be seated, but differing as to
the size of his ma ajority. The minority
admit that the majority of 3,736 returned
for Robbins should be reduced to a59--
still amply sufficient to warrant their
recommendationiha he retain his seat
The majority recommendation was sup
ported by Messrs. Moody (Massachus-
etts). Linney North Carolina) and
Roysc Undiana). and the minority by
Mr.. Bartlett (Georgia) At 5.l5 the
