COME OF TILE ACTION OF BOTH
HOUSES NECESSITY OF EARLY
ACTION APPRECIATED.

AOl iOAN AT iNbOlA ELI.
Washington, April 16.-Senator Bur-
rows, of Mississippi is now talking and
1t is thought that the Senate will, be-
fore 1t adjcurns, adopt the Davis reso-
luton and submit 1t in the shape Of an
amendment to the House.
The Turpie amendment for the recog-
milton Of the Cuban republic will also
be adopted in all probability. This
will produce complications, but the two
houses will surely reach an agreement
not later than Monday, as an now APP
preciate the necessity OF early action.
Should the resolution reach the presi-
dent. accompanied by the amendment
recognizing the Republic OF Cuba, the
president will sign 1t, but in a brief
message to Congress will hold that the
constitutional prerogative vested In an
executive to recognize other govern
ments shall not be taken away, and
that the amendment is therefore void
rows and imperative.

AGAINST HIS MAKING NIGHT
HIDEOUS BY ABUSING HIS
MOTHER AND SISTER LAST
EVENING.
George M. butcher, OF No. 706 West
Ninth street, created quite an excite
ment last night, while drunk, by abus-
ing his mother and sister.
The young mans two brothers In
terfered with him, and for a time it
looked as IL free fight would be the
result.
The neighbors, who are mostly wo-
men, and who were alone at the time,
were much excited and frightened by
the loud talk and profanity OF the
drunken and disorderly young candi-
date for New Castle jail An officer
was notified of the trouble and went
to the house, but Dtucher was sober
enough to keep within bounds OF de-
ceney until the policeman left, when
he again broke out with a fresh string
OF oaths
Some of the neighbors said that 1t
was an every night occurrence for him
to alarm the residents of that vicinity
with his drunken abuse of his mother
and only night or so ago he kicked
the back door down and had nearly
everybody in the block awakened, and
badly frightened his sister and
mother by his ruffianly conduct.
A man who was passing at the time
OF butchers street performance, sug-
gested a good cowhiding as the proper
means OF arguing with him, and the
sentiment was heartily endowed by
others.
Several OF his neighbors said they
| intended to demonstrate to the land
lord Of the house and have an end pu
to the nuisance by making him mov'
out of the otherwise quiet, orderly ant
respectable neighborhood, for they will
| not have their wives and daughter
| listen to the vile and soul-sickeninl
oaths used by him.
