54th CONGRESS-.
Plenty of Bother for Senate in
the Cuban Resolutions.
The House Still Looking After the
Great Appropriation Bills.
It Has Already Broken All Previous Records
In Disposins Of THIN.

Washington, Feb. 23. " hen the Cuban
resolutions were made the unfinished
business of the Senate, a prolific subject
for debate was laid before that body.
The general opinion is that most of this
week Will be devoted to that matter
Morgan began his speech, Friday, in
which he only gave the Senate his intro
ductory. He will probably consume most
of the time, Monday, and may not even
conclude then. White Of California. will
speak on the Cuban question at the first
opportunity he can get, and Gray. who is
looked upon as in manner rcprcsentinu
the administration is preparing speech
in reply to Morgan.
The committee on public lands will
occupy the morning hour during the early
part of the week in pressing to vote the
bill unanimously reported from the com
mittec to provide for an extension OF the
time within which suits may be brought
to annul land patents. This is matter
called to the attention of Congress by the
President, and there is need for early
action. The bin has already passed the
House, and the Senate committee has
made some amendments which may not
meet the approval of the House.
Senator Carter of Montana. has changed
the date OF his promised speech on the
resolution TO recommit the tariff bill from
Monday TO Wednesday. 1t is probable
that after Carter has explained his reason
for voting recently against Morrill's mo-
ton to take up the tariff blu, and thus
put himself on record, Teller and Mantle
may do likewise.
All the appropriation bills so far re-
ported to the Senate are out of the way.
The army and agricultural bills are now
before the appropriation committee and
will be reported by the middle OF the
week If necessary, and these measures can
be called up to consume the balance OF the
week
An early adjournment" is confidently
predicted on the House side of the Capt.
tol. Five OF the ID general appropriation
bills have been passed by the House, one
other debated and recommtted with in
strucions, one now under con sideration.
