gross. was almost reached today. when Isl
bills were passed against 49, passed at a
single session in the former congress. In
all. the house at this congress has passed
about 900 bills, number considerably
exceeded in the fifty-frst general
pension bill was passed TO restore to the
pension rolls widows of soldiers of the
rebellion who subsequently married and
become WIDOWS or divorced. BY the terms
of the bill however, its benefits are
limited To widows of soldiers who We're
married before the close of the civil war
and who are now dependent upon their
own labor for support.

proposal is not yet ascertainable. Lord
Pauncefote will probably be the medium
through whom the answer will be sent,

will chiefly be conducted
In British official opinion IL IS likely
that St, veral months viii elapse before the
matter reaches a conclusion. by which

Regret at WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. FEBRUARY $50 far as can
De asccrtaincd the administration has not
had any intimation of the counter pro-
poeals the London dispatch says viii be
made In the matter of the Nicaragua ca
nal project. There is n feeling of regret
that the British government has felt con-
strained tn adopt such course, as the
hone was entertained that the amend
ments to the Haye-PauncefOtc treaty
might have been accepted in the spirit
in which they were made.
senator Morgan when informed tonight
of the new stand taken by Great Britain,
said he believed if Great Brltalh mas ue,
cidcd 10 take the action stated il would
create resentment in the senate ana
among the people AMI distrust of the mo-
tiyes of that government. lie hoped i
might result in some action on the pend
ing bill at this session.
one suggestion made tonight as pos
sihle counter proposal by Great Britain
was that i'm return for concessions made
nv her she might desire an open port on the
Alaskan coast as an entrance into her
gold fields in the Klondike.
