was postponed until Saturday next. A
committee was appointed to await upon
Agent Parker of the Pacific, and Agent
Sherman of the Atlantic, to protest
against the 10 per cent out down.

The present outlook is favorable to the
Senate giving much attention to the
Hawaiian treaty during this week. The
agreement to vote on Thursday. upon the
Teller resolution reafiirming the doctrine
that United States bonds are. payable in
silver at the option of the government,
will, in all probability, result in the Sen
ates giving the major portion of Its time
until that date to this measure with the
exception of that necessary to the con-
sideration of appropriation bills.
Senator Turpie has given notice OF a
speech on the Teller resolutionsfor tomor-
row and it is expected that speeches for
it will be made by Senators Teller, Pet
tigrew, White and others, and that there
also will be some addresses in opposit-
ion. Senator Nelson has offered an amend
1nent declaring for the maintenance OF
the parity Of the two metals, but the Sill
yer, men, considering this proposed modi-
fcation hostile to their purpose, will not
accept it. They say they will insist up
on a vote on the resolution as it stands.
The pen sion appropriation bill will be
called on Monday and as soon as it is
disposed the Senate will be asked to
take up the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill. Each of
these will provoke some debate, but it
is not expected to be. prolonged in eth
er case.
When the treaty next comes up Senator
Teller will be recognized to speak in its
support, and he probably will be followed
by Senator White in opposition. The
vote on the treaty now appears at least
three weeks distant.

Washington,-January 2S.-The EHouse
programme for this week includes little
of interest beyond the limits of the Dis
trict of Columbia. Almost the entire
week will be devoted to the District of
Columbia appropriation bills. 1t is ex-
pected that the Indian appropriation bill,
the consideration of which, was begun
yesterday, will be completed tomorrow.
The only item in the bill which is likely
to cause much of contest is that pro-
viding for the leasing of the Gilsonite
beds of the Uncompahgre reservation in
Utah. This provision was beaten in the
last Indian bill and will be stubbornly
contested now.

MILWAUKEE CATCHES IT.

Milv aukce, Wis, January 23.-The
most severe blizzard which has visited
this city in years continued in its fury
until O'Clock this morning. Snow to
the depth OF 16 inches has fallen anc
with the wind blowing at the rate of 80
miles per hour, great drifts were formed
in all parts of the city, making travel al
most an impossibility. On several lines
of street railway traffic was at a stand
still early in the night and only the most
important thoroughfares were kept open
with the aid of powerful sweepers until
an hour before midnight when these,
too, were stalled, so rapidly did the
snow drift. Railroad trains came in
very irregularly and only passenger
trains, each with the aid of several loco
motives attempted to get through,
those carrying freight being abandoned.
Every telegraph wire in the state was
crippled and news from the outside
world was received over the long dis
tance telephone wire. Reports from
railway offices tonight are that all the
lines have been cleared of the big snow
drifts and trains Of all l4iuds are running.

St. Johns, ". F., January 23.-A sue
cession of northeast gales is driving the
Arctic ice foe in upon the whole northern
coast of this island and closing naviga-

other vessels lying in this harbor are
loading cargo and are likely to be caught
by the barrier and kept here until the

The war between tho United States
and Spain is one Of suspense and expcc-
tation to all the citizens of the United
States. Since the naval battle off Ma
nilla between the fleet OF the United
States, nnder Commodore Dewey, and
Montojo, Admiral of tho Spanish Navy,
everything has hccn brcathlcssly await
ing news Of n conflict which was expected
to occur between Admiral Sampson
and tho Spanish fleet OF Porto Rico.
Sampson left Cuban waters about the
9th instant, presumably to meet the
Spanish ilotilla. 1t has been expected
that report would appear in each paper
since telling of the result of a conflict.
Tho report comes at last and it reveals
tho fact that the Spaniards have declined
the conflict and retired to Cadiz. This
turn taken by the Spaniards practi-
cally leaves Porto Rico and Cuba lInpro-
tectcd. We may not be surprised at any
day to hear Of tho fall Of Porto Rico
under an attack from Admiral Sampson.
Soldiers arc rapidly being concentrated
on tho Southern coasts preparatory to
an invasion of Cuba. When our troops
arc landed in Cuba We expect to hear of
q repetition Of tho result at Manila.
We can sec no reason why tho conflict
should bo long continued in the island.
Whom American Gunncrs meet the Span
iards wo expect to hear of Spanish blood
flowing freely on Cuban soil.
