HOUSE HELD A NIGHT SESSION.
Nearly 200 Pages of the Alaskan BILL
Disposed OF.

An amendment offered by Mr. Wheeler
of Kentucky to the Alaskan code bill was
adopted in the House yesterday to prevent
the shipment of eggs of the crane, brandt
goose or wild duck.
Mr.. Wheeler said Alaska and Manitoba
were the breeding grounds of wild duck and
wild geese, and this was an attempt to
protect these wild fowl.
Mr.. Bartlett of Georgia moved to strike
from the bill all the provisions relating to
arrest and bail, leaving only a provision
that no person shall be arrested in civil
action. Mr.. Bartlett insisted that there
should be no arrest for debt.
Suppose a man has $4,000 and is about
to leave for Halifax. how are his credit
ors to collect their debts?" asked Mr.,
Tongue of Oregon.
Let them go to Halifax for it," replied
Mr.. Bartlett, amid laughter.
Mr.. GroSvenor also supported the PROPOSE
tion to strike out the whole chapter He
too was unwilling that arrests should be
allowed in civil action.
The whole chapter, finally, was stricken
out without division. After completing SO
of the ST. pages of the bill the committee
Icse, and 1t was agreed that night session
should be held for its further consideration.
The conference report on the Indian appro-
priation bill was adopted.
Mr.. Fitzgerald of Massachusetts called at
tention to the fact that by the terms OF
the bill Congress for the first time since
Gen. Grants administration refused q cent
for contract schools. He charged that this
was due to the campaign Of bigotry waged
in certain sections Of the country against
these contract schools. most of which were
Catholic. The result of the legislation, he
said would be that 1900 Indian children
would be denied schooling until government
schools could be built
A bill was passed requiring the discussing

bond of $25O.O0O for faithful performance of
his duties during the year ending June 80,
1901.
At 5:25 pm. the House took recess until
pm.
There were only about two dozen mem
bers present at the night session. The
Alaskan code bill was again taken I'D, and
all items which involved opposition were
passed over. After disposing of 1SS of the
| 6l9 pages of the bill the House, at 1890,
adjourned until 10 am. today.

Senator Mason Cll.) introduced a
resolution in the United States senate
on the Goth TO withdraw troops from
Cuba on July 4 and turn the govern
ment over to the people. The bill to in
crease the powers of the interstate
commerce commission was reported I'M
favorably. The right of Nathan b.
Scott, of West Virginia, to retain his
seat in the senate was discussed, but no
action was taken. In the house the post
office appropriation bill was passed, as
the director of the census to. 81, 500 and
the pay of the supervisors two per cent.
The United States senate on the
27th ratified the treaty with Spain
extending for six months the time In
which Spanish residents of the, Phil

b. Scott, of West Virginia. was de-
clared entitled to his seat. The house
passed 81 private pension bills, among
them one granting $50 per month 10

Senator Pettigrew Is. d. succeeded
in introducing a resolution in the Unit
ed States senate on the 2Sth extending
sympathy to the Beers. A motion to
refer it failed because of the absence
of a quorum. The house devoted the
greater part of the session to the SEN
ate bill to adjudicate the claims of citi-
zens of the United States against
Spain assumed by this country by the
treaty of Paris.

HAS TWO SIDES.
Trade nat Shows Varying Con-
d%itiOns, But Is, on the whole,
Very Favorable.

New York. April 2S.-Bradstreet's says:
Evidences of the fact that there are now
two sides to the general trade situation,
where for a year past there was but one,
come to sight each week. Different sec
tions of the country and lines of business
return differing reports. but that the situa-
ton as a whole Is a favorable one and SUI
fers merely by commtseration with the
enormous and almost feverlsh activity or
some time ago is also evident. Excluding
the great speculative centers the aggre-
gate of business is undoubtedly larger than
a year ago and the business done even IN
several industries reporting reduced ac-
tivity would seem very large even TO those
tearishly inclined had 1t not been for the
enormous aggregate done some short time
ago. Crop prospects, except In the wheat
area of the central weas and in some Hood
ed sections of the south, remain all that
might be wished for. Retail demand is I'M
proving and nothing of a definitely depress-
ing character has yet developed.
I'm agricultural products the situation Is
generally one of sustained strength. Some
slight shading in wheat prices is largely
the results of the fiattering winter wheat
crop prospects in the sections west of the
Mississippi. Spring wheat seeding is re-
ported almost completed in the northwest,
much ahead of the average. Corn has been
quite strong, partly on continued good ex-
port demand ard partly in sympathy with
provisions. which are ronge more be-
cause of steady consumptive requirements
than because of lighter receipts of hogs.

PRACTICALLY AN ULTIMATUM.
American Note to sultan
Great unprecedented Ready
To Pay, However.

Constantinople, April 28.-The Amer
lean note handed to the Turkish min
lister of foreign affairs, Tewfk Pasha,
en- Tuesday, is couched in peremptory
terms, demanding immediate payment
for the indemnity several times prom
ised to Minister Straus by the sultan.
The note does not fix a time limit for
an answer, but its tenor is not far
from the character of an ultimatum.
1t has produced a great impression
upon the porte, which. however, shows
no disposition to modify the attitude
hitherto maintained. namely, %repudiat-
ing the responsibility and seeking to
diminish the Importance of the mat
ter. 1t is presumed that the porte's
reply will be in this sense; and hence,
it is feared the United States govern
ment will be obliged to take steps to
enforce it's demands.

Senator Mason Introduces nm ImpOr
tant observation-disclosures with
draaI of Our Troops.

Washington, April 81. - Senator
Mason Thursday introduced a joint
resolution in the senate requesting the
president to withdraw the forces of the
United States from Cuba. so as to turn
the government of that island over to
the Cubans by the Fourth of next July.
The resolution is preceded by a pre-
amble setting forth that in entering
upon the war with Spain the United
States disclaimed any disposition or in
tention to exercise sovereignty over
under treaty obligation to give indie
pendence to the Cuban people; that
'the continuance of the United States
in possession of the island has excited
the attention of the world and is ex-
citing the apprehension of the people
of Cuba" that under the Monroe doc
trine the island is safe from foreign
invasion; that "the Cubans have shown
a disposition to make their best eff
forts to govern themselves and can I'M
doubtedly do so without endangering
life or property; and that the United
States has lone all that could be ex-
pected of It."
The full text of the resolution fol-
lows:
That the president of the United States
is hereby requested to withdraw the forces
of the United States as rapidly as may be
done with convenience and safety and that
on the fourth day of July, 1900, all civil
and military power of the United States
be turned over and surrendered to the peo-
pie of the island of Cuba"
