five hours of discussion in the Senate this
afternoon of its recent actions upon the

several extended speeches We're made by
Senators who voted against the confer

new point was developed.
That was made by Mr.. Foraker. Of Ohio,
in the course of d brief statement con-
corning the recognition Of the Cuban re-
puhhcs Independence. He said II think
quickly, speedily. possibly even now, on
the very DAY when the ultimatum has
been sent TO Spain, pursuant to the reso-
buttons that passed here, this government
has practically recognized the Cuban re-
public. and | ,hink possibly it is true we

The Following resolution was presented
by Mr.. Allen (Nebraska):

to extend to him all friendly aid and

yet been reached, at least until prospe cts for the next year are so defined that a sharp reduction in yield can be expected. It was recently shown that if there was actual consumption of over 100000 bales of American cotton for the first time dur ing the last year it has only been by So exceeding the demand for goods that im- portant works in this country have already stopped in considerable number.
 "The market for goods all countries con. sidered, has not yet warranted such con- sumption in the manufacture, although 1t has expanded with really remarkable speed. The consuming population of the world increase slowly, if at all, and yet 1t is not twenty years since as much as G. COG, 900 bales of all kinds of cotton had ever been consumed in manufacture in any year. An inerease' from 5,0O0, 900 to 100000 bales in twenty years, over S6 per cent, vastly outruns any possible increase in the con- suming population and since ten years ago, when S,134 000 baes of all kinds of cotton were consumed, then the greatest quan- tity ever known, the consumption has ad- vanced 2,749,OOO bales, or 34 per cent. Even this country the most rapidly growing Tn population of all large nations has not known as great an increase in populat on, nor is there evidence that the condition of the consuming population of the world as a whole has so improved as to encour- age materially larger purchases of cloth ing.
 "Yet it is true that the actual dis ribu- ton of goods by sales to consumers has increased, if not as rapidly as production, much more rapidly than the consuming population. The surplus of goods cal r ed by manufacturers and dealers has evid ently increased. but the consumption has increas- ed also and no one can iwth safety pse- dict that it may not increase yet more. No doubt the cheapness of goods, helped both by the reduction in cost of ma ufac- ture and by the low price of cotton, in part due to cheap transportation, has made a difference in the quantity consumed. and with another year of cheap material and constant improvement in machinery and methods of work further increase in con sumption is net improbable The main diff ficulty at this time is that the accumu- lated stocks of goods on hand and also the stock of cotton yet unmanufactured are unusually large, with crop coming which threatens to exceed the worlds consuming capacity not merely of American, but or all cotton"
