own report that Sanguilly had been only
two months, instead Of five years, in the
United states when he got his na turali-
and had never returned since-having
lived in Cuba for the last eighteen

OF the State Department as ''pusillani-

Allusions by Senators Hill and White
(Dem.), OF California, to the inconsis-
| tency OF Mr.. Sherman In having the
| joint resolution reported yesterday, and
expressing the hope that the Senate
| to-day against taking 1t up, brought Mr.
Sherman to his feet He said:
| The Senator from California seems to
| desire to drag me into the debate, al
| though | do not care to enter upon it,
I am in favor of the pending joint re-
solution, and think it ought to com
mand the unanimous approval Of the
Senate. l believe that gross injustice
| almost barbarous injustice, has been
done to q naturalized citizen Of the
United States who has u right to pro-
lection from the President. am not in
favor Of pressing this resolution at this
moment, as 1t stands in the way of ap-
preparation bills. have so voted and
will so vote again. / trust that after
| the debate has gone on a while the
Senate will see clearly the necessity of
taking up the appropriation bills and
passing them. 1 do not think there is
! any inconsistency in that. 1 hope that
| Senator'S who are opposed to the reso-
| luton will not stand in the way Of q
| vote
1T is a great Injustice TO say that we
who are in favor or the resolution are
opposed to the passage OF the appropria-
| tion bills. ] intend to stand by the Com
mittee OIL Appropriations from this day
to the end of the session, but that shall
not prevent he from doing what think
is right in behalf OF the policy Of the
United States to protect It's citizens
against unlawful and insolent treatment.
II trust the time Will never come when
| an American citizen can be WronSed or
persecuted by any power great or small.
| That Is the way feel now. + am in
| favor Of protecting this American citi-
| zen, though he Is q naturalzed citizen.
| I am opposed to wrong and violence
and tyranny wherever it is exercised
and when /! is exercised against an
American citizen will stand4up for him
| even if ! am alone"

THE NIGHT SESSION.
The expected continuation Of the Gu

in bond and to prevent the importation
Of impure and unwholesome tea, and
the consideration Of the Indian bill was
renewed.
| Senator White had the floor on the
Cuban question when the Senate took
it's recess at G o'clock, and would have
continued tonight had it not been ap
