The Senate-Thursday.

At the conclusion of the morning
session, tho vice-president laid before
the senate the resolution of Mr.. Allen
which was laid over from yesterday. 1t
provides for the appointment of five
senator's to make an inquiry into the
condition of affairs in Cuba with a
view to bringing the war to q peaceful
end. Allen withdrew the motion -.
Mr.. Spooner made constitutional ar
gument in favor of seating Mr.. Corbet.
No vote was reached, however, and the
contested case went over. :. At this
point it developed that there was no
quorum present and the senate adj
journed.
The House.
The house devoted itself strictly to
business today and disposed. of sew
eral additional pages of the sundry
civil appropriation bill. Mr.. Sayers
criticised the item in the bill placing
only the unexpended epidemic funds
of past years at the disposal of the
quarantine service. He thought $780,
900 additional should be appropriated,
and moved to increase the appropria-
ton 100000. The motion was lost.
Mr.. Cannon said that the largest
amount expended in previous year
was $287, 900, in 1894. Last year but
1874, 900 was spent. On February l,
1898, there was an unexpended balance
Of $4,000. In his opinion that was
sufficient. The discussion soon drifted
into the ACCESSIBILITY of the establish
ment of national quarantine. -. An
amendment was adopted appropriating
$4,000 for the Yosemite national
park, California. :. The senate bill to
prohibit the passage Of local on special
acts by territorial indebtedness was
passed.

Chignic bay thousands of fine fish were
caught. but on the Karluk the humpy sal
mon kept the eanneries hunting Cor fish
The season has Eow closed. and the three
companies operating about Prince William
sound are beginning 20 send back their
outfits. The total Northern Alaskan pack

The salmon run in Alaska this season
has been fair. Most Of the canneries were

than last year. On the karluk river. for
some unknown reason, canning salmon did
not run. There were hump-baeked salmon
until you couldn't rest, but big catches
OF canning salmon were rare. Our cannery
packed loo, 600 cases there last season. while
this season We got only 5000 cases. The
karluk has long been considered the best
salmon river in Alaska. The hump-backs
are bound 10 run every three or four
years. and it is expected that they viii not

rivers around the eannery. or we would
hardly have been able 10 make pack
"At Orca the pack was fairly good. Tho

son. Our new cannery on Cook inlet did
well. 1t has to lis credit 5000 cases. At
Chignic bay the run was excellent. All
three canneries made q fun pack and about
the same number OF cases, 5000. The
other canner!es are owned by the Alaska
