WASHINGTON, April 80.

Congress is attracting little interest
just now. The War tax bill was under
consideration in the House this after
noon, taken up for amendments. 1t
is expected the bill will pass the
House before adjournment to-day,
and will be considered by the Senate
Finance committee on Monday. 1t
will likely require ten days to get the
measure through the Senate.
The Senate to-day passed the Naval
appropriation bill. 1t calls for a
total of nearly $57OOO,O 900, which is
some $19, 900, 900 greater than when it
passed the House. 1t authorizes the
building of four harbor-defense moni-
tors and increases the torpedo boats
from 12 to 16, and three sea-going
battleships.
Secretary Of War Alger to-day sub
mitted to Congress deficiency esti-
mates of thirty-four millions to cover
the additional army expenses to July
1st.
President Mckinley has practically
determined to appoint Charles II.
Allen, of Lowell, Mass, as Assistant
Secretary of the Navy, to succeed
Theodore Roosevelt, who will raise a
regiment of cowboys.
The State department has been
notified that Brazil and Argentina
have joined the ranks of the neutrals.
Argentina's action has resulted in the
Spanish torpedo gun vessel Teme-
rario moving further down the Rio
de la Plata, where she is anchored
awaiting orders.
The Navy department, after con
sultation, has determined to land
next week a body of $4,000 regulars
in Cuba, at a point to be decided
upon as available. Brigadier Shafter
will lead the invasion, which will
likely be at Bahia Honda or Matan-
zas. AS fast as the ports on the
northern coast are reduced they will
be garrisoned. Cooperation with
Gomez and Garcia will be undertaken
and commissaries will distribute sup
plies to the recoucentrados.
Fitzhugh Lee, with ten thousand
yellow fever immunes, may follow
later to relieve them when the rainy
season sets in. In this way land
operations can be carried on without
interruntion
John Waltz, captured at Port Eads,
La, with pictures and maps of the
fortifications there, will probably be
shot as Spanish spy. General Ora
ham will appoint military commits
