Republican Plan to Be Adopted BY
the Senate.
MORE SPEECHES COMING
ALL DEMOCRATIC AMENDMENTS
WILL BE REJECTED.
Republican Programme to Increase
the Taxes On the Masses and Add
to the Understanding Debt Will
Be Carried Out-Hawaiian Amend
ment Will Not Be Passed.

Washington, May 29.-Having decided at
the last moment. Saturday. to observe
Memorial day, the senate will not be in
session again until Tuesday. The finance
committee will, however, meet on Monday
in an endeavor to perfect the revenue bill
in minor details.
There is still no certainty as to when
the vote may be taken on the revenue
bill 1t looks as if the entire week would
be spent upon it, and none of the mem
bers of the committee undertake to pre-
dict the exact date of the senate's con-
clusion of its work. There are still a
number of speeches to be made upon the
bill and upon amendments.
1t is probable that there will be more
or less debate upon the Lodge amendment
for the annexation of Hawaii and the
Morgan amendment relating generally to
the government of the annexed territory.
Both Senators Lodge and Morgan an
nounce their intention to make speeches
on the subject involved, and senators
espousing the opposite views declare their
purpose to reply If the subject is opened
Republicans generally predict that Sen
ator Lodge will refrain from pressing his
amendment. and il is the general opin-
ion that he will at least not go TO the
extent of asking a vote upon it and thus
spbjecting the measure TO a motion to lay

MINES AT. CIENFUEGOS.
He said that 81 electric mines haC
been laid in Cienfuegos harbor. but
that they did not work we'll and thai
the electric connections were broker
and the mines would be fixed so as tC
explode by contact. He did not know
the position of the mines. When he
was in the harbor week ago there
was one torpedo boat which had beer
somewhat damaged in an encounter
with the Eagle, one of the United
States auxiliary gunboats, and two
gunboats about the size of a large
tug.
The harbor of Santiago had about q
electric mines in it and the place from
which they were worked was a low
matched house on the west side of the
entrance, 500 yards inside. There were
no contact mines there that he knew

SCHLEY REMAINED.
The statements of those on the Brit
ish ship led Commodore Schley to take
a different view of the matter and
instead of running right on to Santiago.
be concluded to remain at Cienfuegos
and investigate the harbor, believing
that If not already hidden they would
come along the coast.
The harbor is very deep and runs in
behind the hills. 1t is reached by two
sharp turns. thence up narrow pas
sage only wide enough for single
snip to pass. Commodore Schley eX-
pected every hour to hear from the
Minneapolis or the Harvard and in the
meantime thought it wise to wait until
the British steamer came out, suspect
ing that perhaps they might not let
him come out, which would indicate
the presence of the enemy.
On Tuesday, May a. the officers and
men were routed out of their quarters
in a hurry. the officer of the deck hav
ing announced that smoke of three
steamers on the horizon to the south
was visible. The alacrity and the
enthusiasm with which the men got
to the guns was remarkable. When
the three ships hove ''hulls up" on the
horizon they proved to be the United
States cruiser Marblehead and the
two converted yachts Eagle and Vixen.
The Marblehead brought out mail and
kilograms. Commander McCalla told
Commodore Schley that the shore
signals which the fleet saw Monday
were from the insurgents, who had
agreed with him before he left the
locality to communicate. At this writ
ing Commodore Schley believes the
Spanish fleet to be in the vicinity of
Cienfuegos and an attempt to force
an entrance to the harbor may be
made today. Commodore Schley's be-
lief of the locality of the fleet is that
there is railroad connection with Ha-
vana and none from Santiago; that
the fleet came here as soon as they
found that the blockade had been
raised by the United States fleet prior
to the arrival of the flying squadron.
The squadron is now a heavy and
one. Three thousand
rounds of ammunition were transferred
to the Marblehead this morning and
there will he an attempt made to
land -
(Other dispatches have stated that
Schley did not leave Cienfuegos until
evening)

BONDS WILL WIN.

Whenever the final vote is reached on
the revenue bill there is no longer much
doubt as to the shape in which it will be
passed by the senate. The decisive vote of
Saturday on the corporation tax amend
ment renders it quite certain that all the
Democratic amendments will be elm
mated from the bill and the Republican
suggestion for the issuance of $500 o00, 600
bonds and Sl00O00.0O0 in time certificates
will be substituted for the house bond and
certificate provision. The general impress
sion about the senate is that the house
will accept the majority of the senate
amendments. and consequently the bill
will not be long in conference.
With the revenue bill disposed of, there
may be an effort to secure an independent
expression on the Hawaiian annexation,
but this will depend upon future develop
ments. The conference reports on the ap-
preparation bills will also be in order.
There will be several of these. the sun
dry civil being the most important.
