long vigil Monday night oven the Cu-
ban resolutions. Consideration OF the
sundry civil appropriation bill was re-
sumed and the wide latitude or de-

explanations TO be made concerning
the action of the senate upon the Cu-

asked them what they thought of the
proposition to take the Hawaiian is

annexation of Hawaii express the
hope that the San Francisco report is
true. Members of the senate commit.
tee on foreign relations are generally
without information as to the plans OF

some Of them, indorse the idea of Sc
curing the Pacific islands by seizure at
this time in view of their strategic i'm

hold this view. :
