THE WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. d. c.. FEB. IS, 1901.
President Mckinley very frankly
tells the Senators and Representa-.
tivRs who call on him that if the Gu
bans complete and forward their
Constitution to Washington within.
the next few weeks, as they are ex-
pected to do, he will call an extra
session of the Fifty-seventh Con-
gress to deal with the matter, as he
most positively declined to accent
the responsibility Of deciding it him
self, This is regardless of whether
the present session fails to dispose
of all the important pending legis-
lation. Only two weeks Of the pres
cnt Congress remains and there is a
lot of work to be done to dispose of
the regular appropriation bills, not
to mention the oleomargarine bill
which is now before the Senate ; the
the Ship Subsidy bill, which the op-
position has openly served notice
shall not be voted upon the Reve-
nue. Reduction bill, now deadlock in
Conference, owing to the refusal of
the House conferecs to accept the
Senate amendments, and other
measures of more importance. The
work of the present week will go
far towards showing whether an ex-
ira session will be made necessary,
aside from the Cuban question.

Rays intention TO substitute a new piece

characterization of Larry Mooney, the COM
ical expressman, with his never-to-be- for
gotten ludicrous makeup, was entirely too

continuous, beginning shortly after the
