MAY NEVER PASS THE HOUSE.
McI<inIcy and Reed Are Opposed to
the Resolution.


Washington. May 2O.-President McKln
ley is not likely to be called on to take
action upon the resolution passed by the
senate for some time and perhaps not at
all. Tho resolution will not be sent to
him for his approval until 1t has been
adopted by the house and whether the
house takes II up must be decided here
after. 1t is known that Mr.. Mckinley de-
sires the postponement Of final action on
the Cuban question until the report of Mr.,
Calhoun, who is in the island to investl-
gate conditions there. has been made Mr.
HIT, the republican leader in the house,
said guardedly in the debate today that
the adoption Of the Morgan resolution at
this time might embarrass negotiations
which the president has in mind to secure
the independence of Cuba, and although
Mr.. Hit discaimed that he spoke by au-
thortty it was well known that he had
been in consultation with the president on
Cuban affairs and his utterancc was taken
as an expression of the wish of the execu-
tive
The senate resolution can come before
the house only by special rule and Speaker
Reed is known to be opposed TO its adop-
ton at this time. There may be much
pressure brought to bear by the repuo-
llcans, who think early action on the Gu
ban question advisable, to have the rcson-
ton adopted by the house. but 50 long as
the leaders consider that it may embarrass
President McKinley's plans 1t is likely to
lie on the table.
