THE NERVOUS HOUSE.
Adjourns Early Rather Than Remain
 Kicking Heels.

Washington, April 16.-The house mated, the numbers coming in scat teringly, conveying the impression to outsiders that they realized the in utility Of being there at all today. l. was understood at this side of the cap ltol that the senate would not or could not so arrange affairs as to be able to communicate any result of the Cuban debate to the house before night. The members freely exchanged opinions regarding the length of time necessary for the senate to close the debate on the Cuban resolutions, and from such of the members as are known to have decided views regarding delay of ac- tion the remarks escaping were not complimentary to the body of earnest dignity at the north end.
 A careful canvas of the house tends to strengthen the belief that what ever form the senate resolutions may assume coming to the house, if they only bear with them the substance of the demand of the house, the latter body will be disposed to coneede to a very liberal extent rather than to in- vite delay by insisting upon form. Regular business was attempted, and to a limited extent carried on un- til 1: 50 D. m., when the house took a recess until 10 o'clock Monday morn ing.
 MOVEMENT SOUTH TOMORROW. Washington. April 16. - General Miles said this afternoon that the movement of troops to the south or dered yesterday will not begin until Monday at the earliest.

Washington, April 16-An actual declaration of war cannot be more positive than the vote of the senate to- night adopting at once all the sug gestions which have been recom- mended as to the proper course to be pursued by the United States in the Cuban affair. Armed intervention is provided for. The insurgent govern ment is recognized and the Maine has not been forgotten.
 The adoption by the senate of the Turpie amendment is deprecated by those close to the administration as impolitic, not that it will impede the course of events in any way, or in any way affect the result of war, which is as much fact as if the declaration were already made. Recognition of Cuban independence will detach a cer- tain amount of European sympathy.
 The motive rsther than the course of the United States will be con- demned. The rtght of interference in Cuba on behalf of humanity, or the right to proceed against Spain in the most vigorous manner, even to the ex- tent Of declaration of war on ac- count of the destruction Of the Maine would be readily admitted, when the right to recognize non-existing gov efnment would be denied.
 This falling away of sympathy will not materially affect this government, but 1t is feared that what is consid- red to be an unnecessary action will b. productive of future embarrassment. to this country. England, whose sympathy with the United States in the present complications has been oste1tatiously expressed, foresees complications which a future Ameri- can senate following the precedent set today nay undertake to solve Other European nations interested on this side of t1e Atlantic see in the senate vote what they imagine to be an am plification af the Monroe doctrine.
 There is little doubt expressed to- night that tie house will accept what has been termed substitute for the house resolution. There might be z disposition to stand upon what is z bare principle, but for the imminenct of the situation aud the realization that what is done must be done a once. So it is likely that differences of opinion regarding a policy will b buried in the house and that after brief conference on Monday the sen ate action will be conclrred in.
 Advices from Europe tonight hay been meager and nothing of even
 semi-official nature has been receive from Madrid.

RecOnsidersd

Mr.. Laing Fails TO Get Bill to That L effect
Reconsidersd
Ia the legislature Friday Hon. j. A,
Laing moved to reconsider the recently
passed bill making dIspensaries subject
to the state and county whisky license
Mr.. Laing's object was to submit an
amendment seeking to modify its opera
tons with respect to Terrell county.
He SAID that there were several Gs-
pensaries in the county of Terrell but
that they operated under one commits
sion, and that he did not think that they
ought to be required to pay but one tax.
Mr.. Freeman OF COweta opposed the mo-
ton to reconsider, and was followed by
Mr.. Harrison of Quitman, who took the
same ground, cOntending that when
counties went into the whisky business
they ought to be taxed like individuals.
Mr.. johnson of Barlow favored the mo-
ton to reconsider, but stated that he did
so for different reasons from those which
influenced Mr.. Laing of Terrell He
stated that he wanted to have the para
graph reconsidered in order that he
might propose to increase the tax on
dispensaries. Mr.. Hall of Bib opposed
the motion to reconsider. Mr.. Laing of
Terrell, in support of the motion to re-
consider, stated that he was actuated by
reasons Of temperance. He said that the
dispensary in the county of Terrell was
dong good work in the interest of sober
morals, and that he did not think that it
ought to be excessively taxed On being
put to vote the motion to reconsider
was lost
