TO RAISE THE DUES.
Frohsinn Society Increases Annual Dues
from Three to Six Dollars.

At a special meeting Of the Frohsinn
Society, Sunday afternoon, the annual
dues of the society were increased from
SO to Sc. Am attempt to do this short
time ago failed, and the vote was only
carried Sunday by small margin. Such
a change requires a two-thirds vote.
There were 105 votes cast, and IA voted
for the amendment, or four more than
the requisite number.
The change means much to the soci-
ety. With the additional revenue new
quarters will be secured, which are
much needed. There has been some OBJ
lection to the change from the first, but
no serious opposition is anticipated now
that the majority have decided the mat
ter.
The committee composed of Chairman
w. G. Lichtenfcls, B. Joseph Bertels,
Leopold Strauss, H. F. A. Lange and
David NJ Earle, will commence to hunt
for suitable quarters at once,

FOR CITY MISSION WORK.
A Generous Contribution by the People
of Union Church.

The liberality of the parishioners Of
Union Church seems ine7dnaustible. A
further demonstration of this spirit of
Christian giving which has moved with
in the society since the beginning of DR..
Tuttle's pastorate, was witnessed Sun
day morning at the semi-annual Offering
for the City Missionary Society. The
total amount raised was $439 ST. of which
s23737 was in cash and 1902 in pledges.
The next collection will be taken in Sep

ises to be larger this year than last.

Washington, March 2O.-No program
has been prepared for the senate for the
present week. and the course of events
is liable to be influenced largely by de-
velopments from the outside.
The quarantine bill is the unfinished
business on the senate calendar, and if
opportunity offers, Senator Pettigrew
will get up his public land bill. 1t is
expected that the sundry civil bill will
be reported Wednesday or Thursday,
and If 1t should be, it may be taken up
later in the week. The senate commit
tee is making many changes in this bill,
and 1t will consume several days of the
time of the senate when considered. 1t
is understood to be Senator Davis in
tention to bring up the Hawaiian treaty
in order to get a vote on the Bacon
amendment 1t is still Mr.. Davis inten-
tion to move to lay the amendment on
the table as soon as Senator Bacon con-
cludes his speech in its support.
All these plans are liable to be
changed if the report of the court of in
quiry into the Maine disaster should be
received. The receipt of this document
would inevitably have the effect of
springing a Cuban debate which would
side-track all other questions

SPANISH QUESTION.
Naval Appropriation Bill Pre-
sents Opportunity For Debate.
Stirring Speeches Likely to Take Place in
the House-Court of Inquiry Report
May Change Program.

Washington, March 20.-Whether the
report Of the naval board of inquiry on
the Maine disaster goes to congress this
week with a special message from the
president calling for congressional ac-
ton, our relations with Spain and the
proximity of war as viewed from the
standpoint of emergency preparations
now going on to place the country in a
state of defense, probably will be ex-
haustively debated in the house in con-
nection with the naval appropriation
bill, the consideration of which will be-
gin Tuesday.
The many emergency items in the
bill, the large increase in enlisted force,
the liberal provision for battle
ships, torpedo boats and dry docks will
bring the whole subject of the necessity
for these preparations directly before
the house. While the conservative lead
ers doubtless will seek to prevent in
f1ammatory expressions under the recent
ruling of the speaker which practically
places no limit upon the latitude of de-
bate in committee Of the whole on the
state Of the Union, the leaders, except
by their example, probably will be I'M
able to repress sensational speeches.
An effort is likely upon the part of
some Of the radicals to force from those
in the confidence of the administration
declaration of the policy of the admin
istration regarding Cuba. This they
hope to do by haunting them with some
of the rumors which have been floating
about in the newspapers during the past
few days. 1t is altogether likely that
there will be a general expression of the
sentiment Of the house on this question
before the bill is passed.
Should the president transmit the re-
port Of the board of inquiry with a re-
quest for congressional action during
the week, everything else will give way
to it. Any action which might be de-
cided upon would be in the complete con-
troll of the republican leaders as to the
limit to be put upon debate, If the re-
port of the board does not go to con-
gress this week, the naval bill will prob
ably consume all the time after tomor-
row. But if it should be passed before
Saturday, which seems unlikely, the
bin for the reorganization of the army
and the authorization for recruiting it
to a footing aggregating 100000 men in
time of war, will be taken up. Tomor-
row the bill for relief of victims of the
Maine will be called up Immediately af-
ter the reading of the journal, under the
arrangement made last week. 1t is not
expected to consume much time, but
probably will be made the occasion for
several patriotic speeches in eulogy of
the heroism of the sailors. The rest Of
the day will be occupied in consideration
of private bills in pursuance of the or
der made last Friday. Altogether 1t
promises to be an exceedingly eventful
if not sensational week in the house.
