The Cameron Resolutions Have Poor
Show i'm the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-AlthOugh the
Cuban resolutions were not discussed in
the session Of the Committee on For-
cign Relations this morning, owing 10
the absence Of Mr.. Cameron the mem
beers of the committee talked about the
resolutions informally after the other
business had been finished. 1t seems
certain, from the temper OF the COM
mittee. that if the effort is made 10 have
Mr.. CamerOn's resolutions referred back
TO the committee. there will be bitter
fight and the committee VIII endorse us
action in ordering the report and reso-
lutiOns which are now on the calendar.
Such effort is not anticipated. for Mr..
Hale and those who are with him are
satisfied with the condition OF things. and
will do nothing 10 start the agitation.
Members Of the committee appreciate
the strength of the organization mat
has been Accted 10 prevent hnal action
L. the Senate. and there appears 10 he
"a acit understanding that the resolution
sall not now be pushed.
A sufficient number of senator's have
been arraycd on the other side TO prOtract
debate. g. q the friends Of the resolution
find that by rushing them they viii pass
no appropriation bills. This they do not
care to do. although there are few
of the more radical senators who would

appropriation hills TO secure the passage
OF the resolutions.
The present indications appear, TO be
against action on Mr.. Camcrons reso-
lutions.
