Washington, Jan. 80. - The senate
yesterday adopted the resolution in.
troduced by Mr.. Culberson, for the
Democratic caucus, which calls on the
president to state whether the senate
has been supplied all the facts bearing
on the Panama question. The vote on
the resolution was unanimous, but
there was roll call on the amend
ment suggested by Mr.. Cullom, for the
Republican side of the chamber. call
ing for the information only in case
the president should consider II not in
compatible with the public interest tc
supply 1t. This amendment was adopt
ed by 80 to 20, all the Republican sen.
ators present voting for the amend
ment and all the Democrats except
Mr.. McInery, who voted with the Re
publicans, casting their votes against
it. The Culberson inquiry no sooner
had been disposed of than the Bacon
resolution looking to the adjustment OF
our differences with Colombia by ar
filtration was considered.
The house yesterday considered
whether members of congress are en-
titled to be paid mileage a second
time. The controversy arose on an
item in the urgent deficiency bill pro-
viding for two payments of mileage
for senators and members of the house
on account Of the extra session which
merged into the regular session. A
point of order was raised by Mr.. Mad
dox (Dem., Ga.) against the payment
Of mileage second time, and he was
supported by Mr.. Littlefeld (Rep.,
Me.), who contended that there had
been no interregnum, and consequent
ly but one session of congress. and
there is no authority of law for a
second appropriation for mileage. Mr..
Littleield received close attention and
was piled with numerous questions as
to his Interpretation of the law and
the constitution. Ar adjournment
was taken before conclusion was
reached.

Washington, Jan. 29-The house for
an hour yesterday was entertained
by a speech by Mr. ]. Adam Bede, a
Republican member froom Minnesota,
who made his maiden effort and won
his spurs. His remarks were replete
with wit and humor as we'll as seri-
Gus thought. Now and then for pur-
poses of illustration he would tell a
story, which recital greatly amused
his auditors. He received the closest
attention Of Republicans and Demo
Gratis alike, and drew laughter and
applause first from one side and then
from the other side of the house. And
at times both sides of the chamber
Joined in vigorous applause. Good
natured colloquies resulted from his
thrusts at the Democratic.party. When
he had concluded he was applauded
on both sides. There was also a dis
cussion Of finance by Mr.. Hill (Rep,
Comm and Mr.. Williams (Dem.,
Miss.) besides references to the Pan
ANA canal and the race problem in
the South.
The time of the senate was devoted
to debate rather than set speeches on
the attitude of the United States to-
ward the Panama revolution. The de-
bate was opened by Mr.. Culberson
and was participated in by Messrs.
German and Bacon on the Democratic
side of the chamber. and by Messrs.
Cullom, Spooner and Lodge on the
Republican side. The Democrats con-
tend for the right Of the senate to de-
mand information in the possession Of
THE executive department bearing on
treaties before the senate. while the
Republican speakers spoke in defense
of the discretion of the president TO
withhold information.

Washington. Jan %. - The senate
proceedings yesterday included q
speech by Mr.. Simons of North Caro-
lima in support of the Panama canal
treaty and the passage Of number OF
bills and resolutions. Mr.. Simons was
the first Democratic senator to favor
the measure on the floor of the SEN
ate. He announced his disapproval OF
the Intervention Of the United States
in the isthmus Of Panama trouble, but
said that as the revolution was an ac'
complished fact and was such before
the treaty was made he could not ac-
cept the theory that the treaty itself
was invalid. Among the bills passed
was one admitting to citizens of Porto
Rico and the Philippines the right to
take advantage of naturalization laws
of this country, but Mr.. Spooner
moved to reconsider the vote, thus
leaving the question undisposed OF.
The resolution giving authority to the
committee on privileges and elections
to proceed with the investigation Of
the charges against Mr.. Smoot was
passed.
General debate In the house yester-
day on the urgent deficiency bill d.
crossed to a discussion of political
topics, the race question and aerial

CONGRESS.

Washington, Jan. 2i.-The time OF
the senate yesterday was again di-
vided between consideration OF the
Panama question and other subjects.
There was only one speech on the
canal, and II was made by Mr.. Stone
of Missouri, who spoke to a resolu'
ton directing the senate committee
on foreign relations TO make an IN
vestigation into the Panama revolt.
He contended that the circumstances
indicated completely on the part OF
the United States in the secession OF
Panama and urged that in the inter
est of the country's good name all the
facts should be known. A number OF
bills were passed, including one for
memorial bridge across the Potomac
river at Washington.
Mr.. Boutell (Rep., Ill) addressed
the house for nearly two hours yester-
day in reply to statements made by
Mr.. Williams (Miss.), the minority
leader, In his "stand pat" speech Of a
few days ago. Mr.. Williams in turn
replied to Mr.. Boutell. The house had
under consideration at the time the
urgent deficiency bill. A resolution
calling on the postmaster general for
information relative to the number OF
carriages maintained by the govern.
ment for the postoffice department
was passed after spirited debate.

MARKETS FOR FUTURES GOOD GAINS ARE SCORED ON
 THE DAY. Close is firm at About the Best Pric- es of the Session With Prices Up Net 19 to GA
 Points.

New York, Feb. 29.-The cotton market opened strong at an advance of P to 3S points with trading active and attended by considerable excitement. The initial gain was rather more than due on tine cables and seemed to be of more gen eral character than that recently noted.
 In fact the buying could be traced to no special source. Wire houses and com mission houses generally seemed to have a good supply of buying order leading to the belief that the demand was in response to the strong statistical situa- ton as reflected by the week and visible supply statement which undoubtedly re- ceived a wide circulation over Sunday and while there was heavy realization from the start, this simply rendered the market rather irregular. The prospects of a cotton famine later in the season seemed to restrict selling even for profits. At any rate the advance carried March to 15.01 and May and July 15.41. These prices represented an advance of 5 to 63 points on the positions named and were followed by rather higher demand and a reaction under realizing of from 20 to 30 points After this there was a period of irregularity until just before the close when the local bull leader. just returned from Chicago, entered the ring and bid ding aggressively soon forced March up to 15.O6 May to 15.45 and July to 15.
