FILIBUSTER IN THE HOUSE.
Effort to Prevent Consideration of the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-The House
spent the entire day on the bill to refer to
the Court of Claims the claims of the
William Cramp Sons Ship-building Com
pany. OF Philadelphia, for alleged damages
due to the delay Of the government in
furnishing armor plate and material for the
battleships Massachusetts, and Indiana and
the cruisers New York and Columbia. The
claims aggregate sl.S67,24i. The bill has
been conspicuous at every session of Con-
gress for several years. 1t met with the
strenuous and determined opposition of
a portion of the minority under the lead
ership of Mr.. McDermott, of New Jersey
and Mr.. Robb, of Missouri. a filibuster
was finally begun but its advocates at
length succeeded in having the previous
question ordered upon the bill. The House
then adjourned. The ordering of the pre-
vious question gives the bill a tactical ad-
vantage in a parliamentary way which
practically insures a vote upon 1T whenever
ii is called up again.

1t VIII Not BE Taken Up Until Great
Britain Has Acted on the Hay
Pauncefote Treaty.
HANNA PLEADS FOR HIS BILL
BUT Is TOLD THE APPROPRIATIONS
ARE TO BE PASSED FIRST.
Ship Subsidy Measure May he Consid.
cred After the Necessary Money
Bills Have Been Acted On.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The Republican
senators decided not to set a day. at least
not for the present, for taking up the
Nicaragua canal bill The decision was
reached after an hour and a half spent in
caucus. and was unanimous. The caucus
was called largely because of Senator Nor
gan's opportunities in behalf of the bill,
and an earnest effort made to effect a
satisfactory solution of the problem. There
was a general exchange of views and many
speeches were made, but after all had been
said. the senators concluded that so long
as Great Britains attitude toward the
amendments to the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
is underlined. it would not be wise or ex-
pedient to agitate the question of the con-
struction of the proposed canal. After the
conclusion of the caucus, Senator Allison.
as its chairman, gave out the following Of
fetal statement concerning the object of
the caucus and the result Of deliberations:
Senator Morgan. of Alabama, chairman
of the committee on interoceanic canals.
made a request of the Republicans of the
Senate that a day be fixed by order of the
Senate for consideration of the Nicaragua
canal bill. This request was made to the
committee on order. of business and this
committee considered the request and made
the recommendation TO the Republicap con-
ference this morning that IL is not expedi-
ent or wise 10 fix day for the consdera-
tion of the bill, in view of the tendency of
consideration by Great Britain of the
amendments proposed by the Senate to the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty. This view was ap-
proved by the Republican caucus without
division. There was universal sentiment
expressed in favor of the construction Of
the canal by the United States at the earli-
est practicable time"
No decision was reached upon other ques-
tions because no formal action was con-
sidered necessary There was. however
considerable discussion OF other questions
Among these were the ship subsidy BILL
the war revenue reduction bill, the con-
frmation of Mr.. Harlan, as attorney gen.
eral of Porto Rico, the ratification of the
treaty with Spain for the acquisition of
some of the Philippine islands, not included
in the original Paris treaty. and the ap-
preparation bills.
Senator Hanna expressed his desire to
have the ship subsidy bill passed on during
the present session, and said that with
the army bill out Of the way. he should
ask that the decision arrived ct early in
the session to press the subsidy bill, be
adhered to- There were several responses
and all were In accord with Mr. Hanna's
request He was reminded, however, of
the necessity of giving first attention to
the appropriation bills and he said that he
to ask that the subsidy bill should receive
attention when the appropriation bills we're
not up for consideration.
