ferred to the purchase OF the Danish

it up and used it. There is no danger Of

Mr.. Warren, a member of the commit
tee on military affairs, challenged the ac-
curacy of the statement that the bill pro-
1t provides, he maintained. for a standing
army of 81, 900 men, all of whom are alb
solutely needed according TO Information
laid before Congress. He declared that the
assertions of senator's to the contrary were
purely dogmatic and supported by no in
formation facts.
Mr.. Allison suggested that until the army
bill was disposed of the Senate hereafter
meet at IL o'clock each day This was
objected to by Mr.. Jones, of Arkansas, be-
cause the Indian committee was now con-
sidering the Indian appropriation bill and
an early session would interfere with this
work.
Mr.. Pettigrew suggested that the request
be withdrawn as he thought a vote will
be reached very soon."
The Senate then went into executive
session and, at $50 p. m, adjourned.

River and HarbOr Bill Considered
EEv.l with a History.

JiEv.l with a History.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The House
spent another day on the river and harbor
bill without completing it. Twenty-six
pages we're disposed of to-day. The friends
OF the bill successfully resisted all attemps
to load down the bill with new projects
and only one or two unimpo-tant amend
ments were adopted. The Western men,
bers labored unsuccessfully To secure an
entering wedge for their pet scheme for
the reclamation of the arid lands, but re-
ceived only very limited support.
Speaker Henderson called the House to
order with gavel presented by Colonel
McCuskey, Twentieth Infantry, u. 8. A,
who is stationed at FIT. Santiago, Manila.
The gavel is part of the official Flagstaff
o. the Philippine islands. from which the
which those of tue United States were
hoisted on the day of the surrender, Aug.
Is, 1898.
The Senate resolution 20 appropriate
$1,000 to enable the secretary of the Senate
to pay the expenses of the inauguration of
the President and Vice President, March
4. was called up and precipitated a lively
discussion because Al did not recognize the
House as a participating factor In the in
aIguration ceremonies.
Mr.. Dalzell insisted that the House
should be recognized.
Mr.. Hepburn declared that the installa-
ton of the Vice President was strictly
Senate affair. The ceremony in the SEN
ate, he said, always had been made the
occasion of discourtesy to the House. He
was in favor of the House combining it's
participation strictly to the ceremonies in
connection with the inauguration Of the
President on the portico on the east front
of the capitol.
The resolution was recommitted with in
structions to report back a resolution pro-
viding for inaugural ceremonies under the
auspices of joint committee OF the Senate
and the House.

TIE IsTHMIAN CANAL.
Dcclaratory Resolution by Mr.. Nor
gnn-State Department Letters.


WASHINGTON. Jan. Ex-senator Morgan
to-day introduced a resolution declaratory
of the noneffect of the Clayton-Bulw
treaty upon the right of the United States
to construct the Nicaragua canal. The
resolution recites the protocol with Mica
ragua and Costa Rica as preamble and
then proceeds follows:
Resolved. That the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty of July 4. 1850. gives no right to
of the United States shall withhold it's
ratification of said agreements or shall
abstain from legislation to provide for
their prompt execution.
THAT the ratification by Great Britain
of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty of Feb. s.
1900 as the same has been amended in the
Senate is not a condition precedent to legis-
lation by Congress in providing for the
execution of said agreements with Costa
RIGA and Nicaragua. Nor are the princi-
pies or provisions of the Clayton Bulwer
treaty any just or admissible ground of OBJ
lection on the part of the government of
her Britannia Majesty TO the enactment
of law by Congress providing for the
execution of such agreements with Costa
Rica and Nicaragua"
The papers called for in the resolution
adopted by the Senate in executive ses-
sion on Dec. 49, covering the correspond
ence between this government and the gov
eminent of Colombia and also the corre-
spondence between this government and
the Panama Canal Company concerning
ansinteroceanic canal became available to-
day. There are very few of the documents
and the correspondence was not of great
Importance. Secretary Hay says in his re-
port to the President, on whom the call
was made. that there has been no corre-
spondence with the government of Colom-
bia on the subject of an interoceanic canal
since that which was printed on the 21st of
March, and he adds that the only Informal
ton received since that date from the legal
representatives of the United States in
Colombia bearing upon this subject is a
Geographic dispatch from Minister Hart
reporting that the government of Colom-
bia had accepted the offer of the canal
company OF 100000 francs for six years

NEELY EXTRACTION CASE.


the Prisoner Is Sent Back.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The State De-
partment will be called upon to act In the
Nicely case. Under the law the warrant
of extradition must be issued by the Sec
rotary of state when he is satisfied of the
sufficiency of the application. In view of
the elaborate attention given to the case
by the judicial branches it is probable
this will be accepted as conclusive on the
merits of the case, and that the issuance
of the warrant will be merely a formality
when the papers are properly brought be
fore the department. 1t is expected this
will take some days. as the supreme Court
decision must be forwarded to the New
York courts and proper orders made there
for the holding of Nicely! The department
warrant will give the custody of Nicely to
William II. Winkel, who has been APP
pointed as the agent of the military au-
thorities to receive the prisoner and take
him to Cuba.
In the Supreme Court to-day Solicitor
General Richards made statement con-
corning his request for the immediate
issuance of the mandate in the Nicely case.
He said that he had received a telegram
from Neely's attorney, John ID. Lindsay,
complaining of the haste of the Depart
ment of Justice in this matter and stat
ing that he lindsay had an understanding
with the department that no immediate re-
quest of this kind should be made. but that
on the contrary, in case of the affirmative
action of the court. time was to be al
lowed to Nicely before the issuance of the
writ and the prisoners removal for him
TO decide upon course of action. Mr..
Richards stated that this understanding
was entered into and was to be binding
only in case the decision was based upon
a technicality, and he read letter from
Mr.. Lindsay in support of this position.
He did not change his request to the court
nor did the court alter its order of yes
terday for the immediate issuance of the
mandate

this country In connection with his con-
tention concerning the necessary time be-
tween the acquisition OF territory and the
putting into effect of our laws, Mr.. Rich
tiated in 1898 for sthe annexation of the
islands, that, ne said. made explicit pro-
visions for temporary extension of our laws
as had been done under the resolution of
annexation. He laid some stress upon the
fact that this treaty had been negotiated
during the administration of President
Harrison.
Mr.. Richards was followed by Mr.. Wick
ham Smith who closed the case for the
appellants. This is the last insular
case on the docket. About a dozen of them
have been heard and the court now has
them under advisement.
