Opponents of the NewIands ReaOlu-
ton to BE Permitted to Do All the
Talking In the Senate.
TEST VOTE NEXT MONDAY
WHEN THE QUESTION OF CONSIDER
ALTON WILL COME UP.
International American Bank Bill
pOintments and Combinations.

WASHINGTON, June lin the execu-
tive session of the Senate held late in the
day an agreement was reached to adjourn
over until Monday, thus postponing the TAX
ing up of the annexation question until that
time. The action was taken on motion of
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, who stated that
the opponents of the annexation resolution
desired the extra time in which to pre-
pare themselves for the Hawaiian debate
He stated they had supposed that the de-
bate would be initiated by the advocates
of the resolution, but that having heard
that they intended to make no speeches he
thought the opposing party should not be
expected to begin so abruptly Senator
Morgan at first opposed the motion, con-
tending for the necessity of a session to-
morrow but he afterwards yielded and the
motion prevailed unanimously. Senator
Davis said that under the circumstances he
would not insist on a Saturday session. but
that he hoped that when the resolution
should be taken up Monday the matter
would be proceeded with eXpeditiously. The
incident served to bring out the fact that
it is the purpose of the friends of the reso-
luton not to debate it at all. The oppo-
nents accept this situation, but they say If
they are to be compelled to do all the talk
ing they will require the supporters of the
measure to maintain a constant quorum in
the chamber.
The discussion will be opened Monday by
Senator White, who will be followed by
Senator Pettigrew. There is some talk of
a compromise by which the matter shall
be postponed until next session and a day
fixed then for a vote. The date mentioned
is Jan. 20. The proposition has met with
considerable favor among conservative SEN
ators, but the leaders on both sides say they
will decline for the present to entertain it.
The committee on foreign relations will call
for yeas and nays on the question of con-
sideration Monday This will give them
test vote which will. they think be very
useful as an indication of the strength
of the measure and might be guide to
be compelled to adjourn finally without ac-
ton.

those interested in trade with southern
countries. An amendment to the bill pro-
VideS that any coterie of citizens who COM
ply with the requirements of the charter
may organize and establish an international
bank.
Mr. Gallinger. chairman of the pensions
committee, in connection with adverse re-
ports on certain bills, announced that the
committee had adopted certain rules which
would exclude many bills. He. called at
tention to case where an application was
rejected by the Pension Bureau, but by
special action a pension had been allowed.
and had been increased three times. The
pensioner was an employe of the govern
ment at a salary of $50 a month. Mr.. Gal

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1898-06-18

During the past few years a number of
Well-known men have visited Mexico with
view of ascertaining its conditions and
prospects. Most of them have published
their observations, but none of them has
seen more that is instructive than President
ingalls,, of the c., c., c. & st. L. Railr6ad
Company. Mr.. ingalls, was in Mexico TWEEN
ty days, and the results of his observations
were given in an address 10 the ST. Louis
Commercial Club shortly after his return.
Mr.. ingalls, stated in his address that of
the 100000 inhabitants of Mexico at least
100000 are poems, or Indians, who are la
thing else than servants. THE peon can live
cheaper" says Mr.. ingalls,. than any hu-
man being of whom have ever read" The
average rate of wages in Mexico is 371A
cents day in silver. In view of this en-
tirely inadequate compensation for labor.
equivalent to less than Is cents in our cur
rency, Mr.. Ingalls, says:
l asked an American there who employs
a large number how the Mexican could live
upon this wage. He said it was easy
than two-thirds of the time at that. one
cent buys him tortlllas, a species of bread:
cents worth OF beans goes with it, and 2
cents for pulque, and this is a great dinner
for cents; three meals day would cost Is
cents. He never sleeps in a bed; his cloth
ing is very simple; he has a blanket that
would cost 81 or 81, which he wraps around
him, and sleeps wherever night overtakes
him. If he has any money, he does not care
to work until it is gone.
The fact that rs per cent. of the people
earn no surplus and cannot spend any, leads
Mr.. ingalls, to regard the success of the
factories which are being built in Mexico
as matter of doubt. He asks: Can a
country prosper in manufacturing that has
no home market?" AS a practical man who
deals with actualities Mr.. ingalls, does not
attempt to find relief for Mexico in 1.-The
markets of the world knowing that the
people that has very limited home mar
ket for its products is without that greater
purchaser and consumer upon whom ma
tons must RELY.
