TO RELEASE SANGUILLY.

Washington, Feb. 17.-The Senate
committee on Foreign Relations to-day
spent considerable time in discussing a
resolution introduced by Senator Morgan
instructing the Secretary Of State to de-
mand the release of General Julio San
gully, naturalized citizen of the United
States, now in prison in Cuba. The COM
mittee adjourned until tomorrow, when
a special session will be held to further
consider the matter in order to ascertain
from the State Department whether any
information in regard to the Sanguilly
case has been received since February /.
There was no disagreement among the
members of the committee on the point
that General Sanguilly had been badly
treated, but some Of them were inclined
to the opinion that the State Department
should be left to deal with the matter
without interference on the part of the
legislative branch.

oyER-RoDE THE REPUBLICANS
Bleeding Kansas has a Scene in its Leg
islature, the Populists Prevailing.

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 1.-THE exciting
times experienced in the House in 1893
when the Populist minority resisted the
rule of the Republican majority, was
paralleled at to-day's session of that
body, when the POpulists over-rode the
Republicans rough-shod.
At the opening of the session, True
bloOd's resolution to appoint a commit
tee to revise the calendar was brought
up for action. Speaker protein Weilep
gave the Republicans notice at the start
that the majority would brook no obstruc-
tton from the Republicans He would
rule, he said that the calendar could be
revised by the vote of a bare majority.
Cubbison, (Rep), protested that such
action would require a two-thirds of the
House and Lambert said that the courts
would decide as Illegal any bills which
the Populists must pass in the manner
indicated.
Lambert demanded roll-caIl upon the
appointment of the committee to revise.
but the question was ignored by Speak
er Wellep, who put the previous question
by a vive v0ce vote. Immediately the
Republicans were in an uproar, demand
ing recognition and repeatedly calling
for roll-call.
Weilep threatened them with the Ser
geant at Arms, but without avail and
then called up the first bill on the calen-
dar. Amid increasing excitement, during
which Representative mounted chairs
and wildly gesticulated in an effort to
gain hearing, the clerk went through
formality of calling the roll for the pas
sage Of the bill. Weilep sat unmoyed
and the clerk having finished the call,
declared the bill passed.
So great was the hubbub no one even
knew the name of the bill.
