ARE WE AT PEACE OR WAR ?

Administration Called Upon to Make =
Decision on the Subject.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The secretary
Of war has confronting him difficult
problem requiring a decision whether
or not the United States is in a state OF
war. In time of peace, but not in time
Of war, any United States soldier may
purchase his discharge from the army
upon certain prescribed conditions.
More than two score applicants of this
kind are now before the department.. If
1t is held that this is time of peace,
that decision might carry with it tho re-
duction Of pay of all the soldiers now in
the Philippines by one half, n con;in-
gency that cannot be contemplated
without apprehension. There are equally
dangerous complications lurking in the
other proposition, namely that tho
country is in a state Of war. War de-
partment officials regret that o decision
should be required at this time.

VOTE WAS A SURPRISE.

SO Decisive . Majority in the Quay Case
Unexpected.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The session
Of the senate was unusually interesting
from the very beginning. In spite Of
vigorous and influential opposition Mr..
Penrose (Pa.) succeeded in getting the
Quay case before the senate and during
the afternoon. three notable speeches
were delivered.
After sharp parliamentary squabble
Mr.. Penrose moved that the resolution
involving the seating of Mr.. Quay be
taken up for consideration. On an aye
and no vote the motion prevailed. "a to
%. The majority was SO decisive as to
cause some surprise.
Not a True Indication OF Strength.
It is known that some senators Will
vote, if the opportunity be offered,
against seating Mr.. Quay who voted
for taking up the case, while on the
contrary some who voted against it will
vote to scat him. So the vote cannot
be taken as indicating a testof strength.
In taking up the resolution Mr.. Daniel
(Va.) delivered a speech in which he
vigorously supported Mr.. Quay's right
to seat.
Mr.. Vest (Mo) and Mr.. Foraker CO.,
delivered notable speeches anent the
Hawaiian government bill. Both were
constitutional arguments, Mr.. Foraker S
being reply to that of Mr.. Vests.
