CONGRESS THIS WEEK.
The Hawaiian Question Overshadovv-
ing All other Matters.

WASHINGTON. June 1.-THE first days
of the week in the Senate will be devoted
to miscellaneous matters on the calendar
and the last days Of sit.sto the Hawaiian
question, if present plans are pursued. The
Hawaiian question is attracting more at
tention than any other matter now before
Congress. and upon its disposition largely
depends the date OF fral adjournment of
the session. Senator Frye is determined to
get the House resolution up in the Senate
as soon as 1t passes the House. and asserts
his ability to hold the Senate in session for
a reaonable time. until the matter can
be disposed of. 1t is conceded on all hands
that there is a majority in the Senate ia
vorable to annexation, but some of those
who are friendly to this cause admit the
difficulty of maintaining a quorum of it's
friends, and expect the opponents of
nexation TO refuse to assist them in main
tanning a working Senate. Among other
measures which there will be an effort to
have considered during the week are the
bill for the Incorporation of the interna-
tional American bank Senator Pettigrew's
bill regulating the accounts of the public
land States and the quarantine bill. The con-
ference committee report on the Indian APP
preparation bill Is likely to receive attention
and it is understood that If opportunity Of
fers portion of the time win be devoted
TO private pension bills and to House bills
on the calendar. Senator Morgan hopes TO
have a favorable report on the Nicarag qua
canal bill to present to the Senate late in
the week.
The debate upon the Newlands resolution,
providing for the annexation CT Hawaii, will
Continue in the HS7use this week until
Wednesday afternoon. when, at 5 O'clock
a vote is to be taken. Meantime conference
reports upon the sundry oyil, Indian and
District of Columbia appropriation bills may
be presented and considered, bat owing to
the great desire TO speak upon Hawaii these
reports most likely will be delayed until
after Wednesday. The general deficiency
bill is expected TO be taken UP Thursday,
and will be disposed of quickly. Aside from
the quarantine bill there are no measures
OF much Importance likely to come up be-
yond appropriation bills.
