WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-An sevantful
period in the country's history iscoy-
cred by the work of the ifty-frst con-
gress, which is drawing to close: It
has been a period Of stirring and sdra-
matte action, with questions Of vast
magnitude. constantly engaging atten-
ton, forming and epoch alongside those
other American epochs, the Revolution
and the Civil war. This congress has
declared war against a foreign foe, and
the treaty-making branch has partici-
pated in ratsfying the treaty by which
that war was terminated. 1t has pro-
vided a great volunteer army. has en-
1arged the regular army, and has ex-
panded the navy to meet &. :. e
War Emergencies and New Conditions.
The tariff has been revised. first by
the Dingleysla and then by the war
revenue act; bond issue known as the
war loan, has been provided. But far
reaching as these war measures are, the
congress has had time also to enact
other legislation which under other cir
cumstances would make its session
memorable. This includes the annexa
ton of Hawaii, the rejection by the SEN
ate of the general treaty of arbitration
with Great Britain, the enactment of a
national bankruptcy law, and reorgan-
ization of the personnel of the navy. To
this list may yet be added other go
Important Subjects Still Pending,
including the Nicaragua, canal, the in
crease Of the regular army, the anti
scalping measure. the, Hawaiian bill,
and the proposed encouragement of
American shipping. Some of the
most important general measures are. in
the final legislative stages, and it will
not be until the last hours arrive that
the success or failure of these measures
will be determined definitely. :. a..,?i
Based on estimates the total appropri-
atoms for the congress would be ap,

WASHINGTON, March L.. Touching
General Otis position at Manila it is
stated at the war department that the
truth is that not forla moment has he
had any doubt as to his ability to main
tain his position, though his lines are SO
long and thin, the estimate being that
they extend over IS miles over the
worst kind Of country, that without con-
siderable endorsements he is not able
to carry on the aggressive warfare that
he feels the situation demands. With
the approach Of the wet season the
necessity increases for the dispers-
ing Of the insurgents from the neighbor.

only with the aid Of reinforcements.
