IN uneventful one. Those who were at

Democrats OF the House Make
Another Attempt to Secure
81 Action on Cuba.
\ Speaker Ruled All Motions Out
Of Order and the Majority
81 Sustained Him.
Impressive Speech by Chair
man Hit in Defense OF the
Administration.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-All day long
tho question of granting belligerent
rights to the Cuban insurgents was ar.
gued in the house, but, as on the previ.
GUS day, the minority hurled itself
against q stone wall. On the only vote
taken-a motion designated to override
the decision of the speaker and direct
the committee on foreign affairs to re-
port without further delay the Cuban
resolution passed by the senate at the
last session - the Republicans stood
solid and voted to sustain the chair.
The galleries were banked to the
doors and there was considerable ex-
1oitement throughout the early part Of
the session when tho mem bers of the mi
nority were successfully pressing all
sorts of amendments bearing on the
Cuban question for the purpose Of
Embarrassing the Ma jority.
During the general debate Chairman
Hit of the foreign affairs committee
made an impressive speech Of less than
an hour explaining at length the situa'
ton which made action by congress in-
advisable. He spoke with imprisoned
words of the presidents sympathy with
the struggle Tor Culan independence
and the achievements Of the present
administration. The release OF Amer
lean prisoners in Cuba, the recall OF
Weyler, the abandonment of the policy
Of concentration and the autonomy
scheme he contributed to tho firm att.
tude of the president and contrasted
these results with the inaction Of the
last administration. Mr.. Hit referred
10 the critical condition in Havana,
and the readiness Of our warshlps
for emergencies. He averred that
belligerent rights
and perhaps the most dramatic portion
az his speech came when he declared
that the insurgents only wished for
,belligerency in the hope and belief that
this country would become embroiled
In war with Spain which would give
chem their freedom with our triumph.
He asserted that the president must as
sumo the responsibility OF any action
which might eventuate in war and ap.
sealed to both sides Of the chamber to
patriotically support the executive il q
