Washington, May There is m
business of great Importance to come
before the house during the week UNI
less the appropriations committee
brings in an emergency war a%ppropria-
ton measure. 1t was the intention OF
Chairman amor to make the emer-
gency appropriations a part of the gen.
eral deficiency bill, but as that bill
might be delayed for some time. he
may bring in a separate measure.
There are also a number of conference
reports to be disposed of. and these
may occupy the time of the house dur
ing the week. Special appropriations
bills are still in conference, but reports
are expected during the week. The
Alaska and bill remains to be disposed
of. and there are a m of minor
matters to be taken under considera-
tiOu.

The resolutions We're signed by Will
lam Albrecht, c. l.. Herzog and Charles
Wegner as a committee.
The meeting, which was under the
guidance of Waldemar Stein as chair
man and Rudolph Herbst as secretary,
then CAV utterance to more patriotic
speeches, at whose conclusion it ad-
journed. All Of the speeches called out
hearty applause.
1t is a fact that in addition to the
steps taken this afternoon as outlined in
the resolutions given above there are
many German-Americans enlisted in the
infantry company and the cavalry troop
of this city; in fact, they constitute a
considerable element in these bodies.
and the idea that American citizens, OF
whatever nationality they may have
been originally, would allow themselves
to be dictated to by the land from
which they hailed is preposterous. At
the same time the declaration of this
afternoons meeting places the Ger
mans of this city in no equivocal
ground.

extraction In the audience chamber Of
Justice Burleigh at 3 o'clock this aft
ernoon, and accordingly q notice to that
effect was inserted In the Standard OF
Saturday with Waldemar Stein as its
sponsor.
f, This afternoon the hall VISA crowded
to the doors with German-Americans
anxious to show hat whatever might
be the action of the fatherland those
Germans who had made the United
States their home felt that they have
but one duty to perform and hat Is to
defend their present home. This after
moor the speeches were many and APP
parently enthusiastic. but the Standard
correspondent, being deficient in knowl-
edge OF the German tongue, a
report OF them Is impossible. After con-
siderable discussion resolutions were
drawn and the same were embodied I'm
an address to the governor Of the state,
which reads as follows:
ITO his Excellency the Governor, Rob-
ert b. Smith. Helena, Mont:
The German-Americans of Great
Falls, in mass meeting assembled. pass
ed unanimously the following resolu-
tons:
BE IL resolved, That the German
Americans of Great Falls are in full
sympathy with the action k by the
United States government In regard to
the war with Spain.

Resolved, The ex-soldiers of the Ger

garded as a hopeless contest for her.
Representations may be made 10 spain
that n would better r~elinquish ner
hold on Cuba than to risk losing all OF
her West Indian possessions and the
Philippines as well. II is believed to be
not unlikely that the representations
will indicate that since Spanish honor
has been Satisfied by a conflict Spain
can now yield to the inevitable and ac-
cept the good ofices of the powers to
bring about an adjustment.
In the dispatches from Madrid the
statement was made that ADMIRAL
Dewey effected a landing on the west
side Of Manila bay for the men OF his
fleet who were wounded in the engage
ment. 1t was suggested in official cir
Giles that this landing had a two-fold.
purpose. 1t was not only that the
they could receive on ~shipboard In the.
face of other probable engagements. but
also TO carry out what was known to be
Admiral Dewey's purpose to effect a
junction with The insurgents as soon
AS possible. N insurgent forces prac-
tically surrounded Manila ON both sides
of the city and with the intention of
seizing control of Manila as soon as
possible, Admiral Dewey was to obtain
a footing on the island at the earliest
practicable moment. AS as the
junction of the American and insurgent
forces, the one On sea and the other
on land, Is effected, a demand is likely
to be made for the surrender of the
city, and in the event of refusal a COM
bined attack would be made on 1t. The
result of such attack in the absence of
a Spanish fleet n effective shore bat
teries seems a foregone conclusion.
Nc news of a Fin is
given concerning the loss sustained by
Admiral Dewey's squadron. and 1t is
scarcely likely in the opinion of experts
Of he navy that information will be
received until Admiral Dewey has OPP
portunity to communicate officially
with the department. 1t is regarded
as probable that Immediately after the
engagements of to-day Admiral Dewey
sen. the revenue cutter McCulloch back
to Hong Kong with dispatches and that
the first information from him will
come from that point. The distance
from Manila to Hong Kong Is a trifie
over 600 miles and II will take the Nc
Culloch abou two days to make the
trip.

The Senate Will Take Up Consid-
GRAFTON of the Revenue Bill.
WANT TO RUSH 1T THROUGH
The Democrats Will Propose Several
Amendments INC Will Oppose the
Bond Feature-Republicans
Are Dissatisfied.

Washington, May Interest In the
senate this week is in the revenue bill.
which is expected t each that body
with the beginning of the week. 1t
will be referred at once to the commit
tee on finance, and probably will be
reported back Wednesday or Thurs
day.
A meeting of the finance committee
has been called for Monday with the
view on the part of the republican
members of having the consideration
of the bill in committee begun informal
ly. They have even minated that
they may ask that a vote be taken at
this meeting, with the view of report
ing the bill as soon as it is referred.
The democratic members of the COM
mittee will oppose this programme, as
they desire opportunity to nave va
rious amendments considered. 1t is
now believed that they will offer a pro-
vision for a tax on all producing in
dustries, another for an inheritance.
and a third for non-interest bearing
treasury notes. 1t is also probable
thai an amendment will be suggested
for the ~ssuance of 500, 600, 900 In green
backs to take the place or those out
standing which are supposed to have
been destroyed. They will seek to
have the bond provision of the bill
eliminated entirely, on the plea that
the time has not yet arrived for a bond
issue. There is a possibility that the
republican members of the m
may amend the bond provision, as
there is more or less dissatisfaction
with it non republican senator's. One
of the changes suggested Is a reduc-
ton of the amoun of the ponds. When
the bill reaches the senat the Opposi-
ton will insist on having time for the
various factions to state the reasons
for their opposition, and it is now pre-
dicted that two weeks will be required
for debate While they will insist
upon the elimination of the bond fea-
ture. they will all state that they will
vote for bonds later If the war should
be prolonged sufficiently to require
their .+ n
The programme of the senate until the
revenue bill is reported is uncertain.
The postoffice appropriation bill prob
ably will be reported and passed, n
the omnibus bill will be taken up.
