EXPANSION
QUESTION
Will Occupy About All the
Time Of the Senate
Next Week.
NICARAGUA CANAL BILL
Passed BY the Senate This
Afternoon After Spooner's
Amendment Was
Agreed To.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The expan'
sion question in one form and another
will practically monopoiize all the at.
tention of the senate during the whole
of next week.
On Monday Senator White will ad'
dress himself to the Vest resolution.
1t is expected that he will make most
animated speech. Mr.. Davis will press
the treaty, and the understanding 1s
that Allison will not antagonize that
matter with appropriation bills II 1t
seems possible that vote on the
treaty can be reached in the future.
Should the obstructionists persist In
making long and stubborn fight, the
chances are that several OF the more
important appropriation bills will be
brought to the front aud passed, as the
republican leaders in congress realize
that 80 much time is being wasted that
to get these measures out OF the way Is
the surest means OF preventing on ex-
ira session.
The treaty could fail this session and
the president would not be alarmed.
He can call an extra session OF the
senate, and the next senate will be so
overwhelmingly republican that the
administration would be sustained.
Monday will be devoted to legisla-
tion for the District of Columbia.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator
Pritchard, IN. C.) will offer an amend
ment to the sundry civil appropriation
bill to include sufficient sum to begin
the work of caring for the graves OF
confederate dead, in accordance with
the presidents recent declaration at
Atlanta.
Mckinley approves the amendment.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The senate
adopted without division today the
resolution offered yesterday by Caffery
calling upon the president for informs-
tion relative to the bounds of and IL
hsbitauts in those districts OF the
Philippines now controlled by Americ-
an forces, and to state also how far
the authority of the Filipino govern
ment extended. It was said that If
newspaper accounts are correct it is
important that the senate
should have the facts. Senator
Davis examined the resolution careful
ly but raised no objection to it's pas
sage.
The consideration of the Nicaraguan
canal bill was resumed at one O'Clock,
the pending question being Spooner's
amendment providing that should the
president fail to carry out the instruc-
tions in regard to the Maritime Canal
company he may treat directly with
Nicaragua, Costa Rica, or any other
Central American country looking to
the building of an inter oceanic canal.
This was agreed to and the big canal
bill was passed at three o'clock.
