THE HAWLEY BILL.
Measure to Increase Artillery
Force Likely to Pass.
BAILEY LIKELY TO VOTE FOR IT.
The senate Passes the BIZ Extending the
Homestead Laws to Alasisa-Pension
and Consular Bnls Sent TO the
President by the House.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Mr.
Hull of the house committee on naval
affair expects the Hawley bill for the
increase Of the artillery forces will COM
mand a large majority in the house.
The Democratic opposition to the meas
ure, which at one time promised to
reach formidable proportions, is rapidly
disappearing.
Mr. Mcclellan Of New York has been
energetically at work among his Dem
ocratic colleagues and has made such
headway that some of those who de-
sired to create. if possible, a party op-
position to the measure have abandoned
their intention. This is largely due
to the fact that Mr.. Bailey the Demo
cratic leader who was believed to be
hostile to the bill at one time, has
withdrawn active opposition to it.
He is bitterly opposed to an increase
Of the standing army in time of peace
but he believes. that with the threat OF
war hanging over the country it is the
duty of congress to make every pro-
vision necessary to vindicate the honor
and uphold the dignity Of the country
He probably will make a speech setting
forth his position and will then vote
for the bill.

l;eneral interest was created by the
pill.
Section 10, providing for certain bond
lag concessions to Canada in lieu of
privileges to be extended by the Do

however, induced a pretty lively debate
as It brought into the controversy the
old fisheries question on the New Eng
land coast which has been pending be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain for a hundred years.
The statement was made on the floor
of the senate that there was every rca-
son to believe that by the passage OF
the bill the fisheries question could be
settled without great effort as assur-
ances to that effect had been receives

BACK TO HAVANA.
The Naval Court of Inquiry Leaves Key
West at Last.

west NJ AinAs
KEY WEST March 5.-After two
postponements the court Of inquiry left
for Havana last evening on the light
house tender Mangrove. IL is believed
by the best informed here that the court
WIN complete its labors in the Cuban
capital within ten days. Only three OF
the six days the court was here We're de-
voted TO the work Of investigation. The
inactivity OF the past two days is still
unexplained except by n semiofiicial
statement that Rear Admiral Sicard
was awaiting instructions from Wash
ington The sessions, Il Is generally
understood, developed, no evidence by
which the court could definitely deter
mine the cause of the explosion
A naval officer in close touch with the
members of the court said to this corr
respondent: with one exception the
witnesses who testified here were Maine
survivors. The evidence. though in
most cases taking longer TO tell, can
be summed up in the words OF an en-
listed man who. when Judge Advocate
Mark asked him what he knew about
the explosion, replied, Sir. l was
blowed up. I was saved and I'm here
That was all he could swear to-"
One important fact has been learned,
however. II is this: Although the
members Of the court may have their
individual theories they are by no
means prepared as a body to render a
decisive verdict The officer already
quoted said: "If the court has yet heard
any testimony which would enable It to
decide intelllgently that the Maine was
blown up from external causes. / am
the most mistaken man In the world
Before the coming Havana sessions are
over II may secure such evidence and
possibly find the blowing up was inten-
tional It will learn from the divers the
actual condition OF the ship after the
explosion. as It has already learned
/ from the survivors most of the details
Of the ships condition before the OK
! plosior with these bases thoroughly
established the court will hear more
\ expert theoretical testimony and then
reach q verdict"
This statement can be taken as more
worthy OF reliance than that of the
Maine officer who said the other day he
believed the court was bound on evil
dence already heard to find the cause
of the explosion external. It's conserv-
/ atism is also at variance with the opin-
ions Of many other naval officers here,
especially those of the younger set. and
directly contrary to the belief OF most
Of the Maine survivors that their shir
was Intentionally blown up. Before
sailing last night Captain Sampson had
long consultation with Admiral Sic
ard.

WASHINGTON. March Sit was de-

rnsion OF its investigation into the dis

eral anxiety for some information on
this point, Secretary Long, at the in
stance Of the cabinet. sent a telegram

was expected that the report of the
court would be made, and late tonight
the following reply was received:
Il have talked with the president Of
the court OF inquiry and agree with him
that IL Is not yet possible TO fix date

upon the progress of the divers and
