IN CONGRESS.
What the Senate and House Will Do
 This Week.


 Washington, June 12.-The first three days of the week in the senate will sbe devoted to miscellaneous mat ters on the calendar and the last days of it to the Hawaiian question, If the present plans are pursued. The Ha- waiian question is attracting more at tention than any other matter now before congress, and upon it's disposi- ton largely depends the date of the final adjournment of the session.
 Senator Frye is determined to get the house resolution up in the senate as soon as it passes the house, and as serts his ability to hold the senate in session for a reasonable time, or until the matter can be disposed of. It is conceded on all hands that there is 8 majority in the senate favorable to an- nexation, but some of those who are friendly to this cause admit the difa- culty of maintaining a quorum of its friends, and expect the opponents of annexation to refuse to assist them in maintaining a working majority in the senate.
 Among other measures which there will be an effort to have considered during the week are the bill for the incorporation of an international American bank, Senator Pettigrew's bill regulating accounts of public land, states and quarantine bill.
 The conference committee report on the Indian appropriation bill is likely to receive attention, and it is under stood if opportunity offers, portion of the time will be devoted to the pri- yate pension and house bills on the calendar.

THE PAYMAsTER's DILEMMA.
The Ohio Senator Pays. and Loses by His Generosity.

Washington, June 12.-The whole Ohio delegation in Camp Alger came near not getting any money on pay day. When State Treasurer Campbell went into the treasury to get his drafts cashed he discovered that he had the wrong papers, and that the real drafts had been sent to Tampa. The treasury authorities naturally re- fused to advance him the money with out the proper authority. MT. Camp bell was in a great stew. He hurried at once for the capitol and asked for Senator Hanna. A little later, when the senator had been found, he was amazed to see the treasurer of the state he represented in the senate, walking hurriedly and nervously up and down the corridor. The matter

MANILA CAN BE TAKEN EASILY.
Perhaps Dewey Will Just Present the
 Philippines to Merritt.

Washington, June 12.-It now leaks out for the first time that in one of his earliest dispatches Admiral Dewey
 told the president that he could take Manila with 5000 troops, and that he did not care for over that number.
 While having confidence in his judg- ment the president thought that no chances of disaster should be taken and that is why a large number of troops will eventually go to the Phil ippines. It would not surprise the administration to learn that Dewey takes Manila with the first expedition sent a few weeks ago unless his in- structions are explicit to wait for more troops. The administration, however, does not profess to be bet

His first step was to go to one of the downtown banks and make ar engagements to draw enough money to pay of the troops, about S40.0O0. Then he came out to the camp and watched the operation of paying the men. Af- ter all were paid it was discovered that the cashier of the bank had given out $500 too much money. Every eff fort has been made since to recover the extra money, but so far without success.
