CONGRESSIONAL CAUCUsES.

The democratic members of the
House held caucus Saturday night to
determine upon plane in connection
with the approaching vote on the Porto
Rican bill.
The chief attention was given to the
question of pairs.
The following resolutions were
adopted:
"Resolved, That all democratic
members are urged to return to Wash
iDgton at once.
That hearafter democratic mem bers
will make no general or permanent
psirs.
THAT all pairs shall be made 10 writ.
log and shall be signed by one Of the
members designated by our party eau.
Gus TO arrange pairs.
Resolved, That as q party, we de
clare our unslterable opposition to the
measure now pending before Congress
entitled "A bill temporarily to provide
revenues for the relief of Porto Rico,
and hereby eDjoin upon every democrat
10 be present 10 the House OF RepreseD-
tatives when the vote is taken thereon,
and record bic vote against it,"
Another resolution was adopted, ask
Jog democratic members to remain
throughout the Porto Rico debate and
wherever reasonably possible 10 remain
until the end of the session of Congress.
The committee on order of business
10 the Senate held conference Sstur-
day afternoon. during which time al
effort was made to reconcile the con-
hicting interests that are clamoriDg for
action. II was decided that the session
Of Congress should be adjourned BY
June 8, which would give ample time
for members OF Congress to make their
arrangements for attending the national
convention at Philsdelphis, which
meets on the 10Th Of that month. The
order oil business TO be agreed upon was
made subssrvient TO this conclusion.
The discussion in the steering CON-
mittee developed the fact that while
neither the ship subsidy bill nor the
proposition to construct the Nicaragua
canal would probably he considered al
this session, still II it were possible to
consider either, the ship subsidy bill
would be given the advantage.
The present order of business, agreed
10 includes the Spooner resolution foI
the disposition OF the Philippine quee-
ton, the consideration OF the Quay
case, appropriation bills and the pas sage
of the Alaskan bill, which establishes a
government for that territory. The
leaders who represent the administra-
ton do not believe that anything OF i'm
portancs beyond these measures will be
considered. The Hay-Paunceiote treaty
was not formally discussed, but the
members of the STEERING committee ex-
pressed the opinion that the treaty was
