CUBAN CONGRESS- ENDS
ITS ACTIVE SESSIONS
There Have Been Many Weeks When
a Quorum Was Not Present.

Havana, Cuba, Aug, THE Cuban
congress, which has practically ended
Its active session, has achieved hardly
any serious legislation, There have been
many weeks when q quorum was not
present, and tho few sessions recently
held have been devoted 70 such bills
as seemed likely to be vetoed by the
president, Ono such was TO compel
the president to dlvest himself Of his
functions Of once siSty-five days be-
fore election, which the president Ve-
toed,- and another was to provide for
the payment Of claims OF soldiers and
civilians in connection with the reVo-
luton of 1895, which the president has
indicated his intention to veto in ease
it passes the Senate,
It appears probable that Congress,
while not tFasf1sact4ng any business
Will remain theoretically in session I'M
til after the elections in November,
The reason Ia that the members hold,
by O. curious Interpretation OF the con-
Rtitution, that the congressional i'm
mupity from arrest extends to all civil
and criminal offenses so long as the
body remains in session.
Representations Of British oil into
rests ip Mexico are here for the pur-
pose, it is said, Of influencing the
passage of legislation fer the admts-
sion Of petroleum into Cuba free of
duty. AZ Congress Ia unlikely to
transact any business until the cleo
tien Is over It ia improbhla that there
will be any dIse9ssian of the propo7
sItiQn until the next session, -.

them to return to their native land.
The most recent government census
shows that of the population of $500,
900 some are returned Norwegian
Americans, 100 of whom were born

capital money they had saved while
working for others in America
A new emigration law is under con-

for en1igrants to return to Norway by
giving them dispensation from mill

The Norwegian government is trying
to assist the progress of farming by
tho granting Of cheap loans 70 farm

though the number o3 farmers has
increased recently, difficulties have
arisen owing to the lack OF farm
hands, many OF whom still prefer to
seek new homes in America, although
wages for farm hands Of both sexes
are almost aa high here as they are in
the United States and better than
anywhere else II Europe.
The press all over the coUntryeis de-

and strong efforts are being made to
change the current Of migration and
bring back from America to Norway

women engaged in agricultural pur-

this country.
The idea Of beginning a campaign in
America with the object Of making
young NoFwegiapa there acquainted
with The promising prospects In their
own country Is rapidly spreading, One
society with the title of New Land
has been in existence some time with
this purpose IN view and also for pro-
