CONTESTS IN CONGRESS.
The House DcVotes Most of Its ses-
sion 10 Two of Them.

Washington. March 12.-The House to-
day spent all Of its time considering con-
tested election cases. One of them-that
of II. Dudley Coleman vs.. Charles +.
Buck. from the Second Louisiana district
was disposed of without debate by the
adoption of the resolutions unanimously
reported by the elections committee No.
2 that Mr. Coleman, rep. was not elect
ed and that Mr.. Buck, dem. had been
and was entitled to his seat. Debate
upon the other-Wiliam F. Aldrich ".
GostOn a. Robbins, from the Fourth Al
ALBANIA district-was begun and continued
Mr.. Daniels of New York stated that
II had been agreed to devote seven hours
to the discussion of the report, the time to
be equally divided. There were three re-
ports i'm the case. two from the major
ity, which did not agree in the details
upon which the same conclusion was
reached, viz: that Aldrich was entitled
to his seat. Messrs. Daniels and Cook
of Illinois find that the apparent ma
jority of 1916 for Robbins should be
changed to one of col for Aldrich. They
go into the returns in detail and show
that in twenty precincts the vote as re-
turned was not'the vote cast, and make
this comment: 1T is a cause of just as
constituent that men who are mentioned
so often as intelligent and reputable per-
sons in their communities will so far vol
unfairly degrade and criminate themselves
as to descend to the political trickery and
knaVery so abundantly proved against
them. These elections are blot upon
the fair name and integrity Of the coun-
try. and are a despotism as complete and
intolerant as can be found in any of the
arbitrary sytems of the old world. And
the people can only vindicate themselves
against the wrong by frowning down and
denouncing the abuse of the law and pub
lie authority" q
A report made by Mr. Royse. rep. OF
Indiana, and the other members OF the
majority of the committee. find that the
majority for Robbins should be 2S6. but
this apparent majority was obtained by
fraud. They therefore recommend the
seating Of the contestant, Mr. Aldrich.
The minority of the committee. through
| Mr.. Dinsmore, dem, of Arkansas. find In
| their report that Robbins majority was
$50 and recommended that he be permit
ted to retain his seat
The majority recommendation was sup
ported by Messrs. Moody of Massachu
sets. Linney of North Carolina and Roys,
| of Indiana, and the minoritys by Mr.
| Bartlett of Georgia.
At 515 o'clock the House adjourned un
| til tomorrow.

and shall, as soon as 1 hear from these
parties, take firm stand in the matter
'grhe late fearful revelations as to the
evils of intemperance and OF the rum traf-
fic generally have made a deep impress
sion on me, and | propose to put myself
into immediate communication with Santa
Cruz Jamaica and other great rum CEN
tiers in the West Indies and South America
in order TO gather all the available stalls
tics on the subject so that in future legis-
lative debates 4 may present facts and

lative bodies. The reform of this great
evil however, can only be accomplished

HILL KEEPING COOL HEADED.
Continued dom - -.

From all that was before the committee.
that body was convinced that the testi-
mOny was ample 10 justify the resolutions
brought in by the committee
II there IS no state OF war in Cuba 80
exclaimed Mr.. sherman passiOnately.
where in the name OF hell does war
exist. for war is hell
Mr. Sherman contended that the dis
patches from Cuba and all the testimony
before the committee showed that a state
of war existed in the island and that the
Spanish government had been unable to
quell the insurgents. The natives We're
fighting for freedom and liberty and the
blood of every American should leap In
sympathy for those now endeavOring TO
throw of the Spanish joke. The material
resolution before the Senate was the one
that simply granted belligerent rights
and Mr.. Sherman said he could not un-
derstand how any man could enter an oh
lection TO this resolution, which was
solely in the interest OF humanity.
Congress had done nothing 10 ought not
to do in this question; but il was slow in
doing what ought to be done. The war in
Cuba. said Mr.. Sherman, ought TO be con-
tinued until the Cubans gained their free
DOM then all America would be free.

Cleared for Tampn.

Charleston, s. c.. March i2.-The alleged
filbusterlng steamer Commodore, loaded
with arms and ammunitions of war, went
TO sea few minutes after o'clock this

she was detained by lack of a second en-
gineer and subsequently the weather out
side was too rough for her to attempt TO
weather it. She is regularly cleared from
this port for Tampa. Cubans here say that
She will return to Charleston i'm two weeks.
