Hale, In the. conrae of his remarks, predicted that Joseph Chamber Iain's tariff plans are carried out. Canada wlU be absorbed by the United States vrlthtn ths lifetime Of people who heard his voice. Early la ths session Mr.

Hale moved to reconsider the vote, by which the Xewlands resolution, for ths annexation of Cuba, waa referred to the Committee 'on Relations with Cuba. lie made the motion the basis ef a speech ta opposition to the policy pro' posed by ths resolution, laying that' this country had already declared its policy with reference to Cuba, by enacting ths' Teller resolution Into law. lie had observed in the newspapers that the introduction of the Kewlands resolution and Its reference to a committee had occasioned anxiety the island, and he did not wonder that this was tone. AU ths element of discontent In the Island would, he said. Indorse the Newlands measure, and amonr these he Included the old.

Spanish element in Cuba and American Investors there. It might be said that the Newlands resolution is only an Invitation, he continued, but granting this to be true. It Is still a fact that we are not In the habit of We would not, for Instance, extend such an Invitation to Groat Britain for the tonltln of Canada to the United States or Mexico for such a tmlon. I bars little doubt that men new listening to me lil see the time when Canada will become an Integral part of the United States," he saM. "If his plan Is carried out by the mort sdventsrous ef British pUtlolM colonial preference.

A lo- eussisna. and considerations that will end Id the union of the two peoples. But we do not Invite Great Britain to send Canada to us aad join the Union, is too large a power." Ho closed by tirglng the Senate to take no step ta clog progress In Cuba.

Mr. Kewlands (Nevada) expressed gratification that his should have so early attracted attention. He agreed with Mr. Hale In much that he had said concerning the of Cuba and the character sf its people. Still it was a fact that uuoa naa oeen compelled to confess her in ability to cope with other nations in business affairs.

He also referred to ths concession of the privilege granted to the Vslted States for erecting fortifications on Cuban soil and to our supervision of the foreign relations of the Island, as well as of. the conduct Of Its sanitary affairs, and said that as a matter of fact Cubs, bad already assumed the attitude of a ward of the United He also advanced the argument that. In asking a reduction of -the duty on Cuban products exported to ths United States, Cuba was making an exeep- tlonal reauest. and he thoueht we should respond by offering political rather than commercial union. For himself, he had had in mind Cuba's interest in presenting- tb resolution, and he wanted it understood that he represented ro Spanish dons or American sooculaters.

He had offered the resolution in no spirit vi spoliation, dui oecause ne naa oeuevea that the measure would anneal to the sood sense of both the Americans and the Cu- dsns. Mr. kewlands iM that lie bad rmrvMeit the attachment of Porto Rico to Cuba ss a county, or province.

The nersonnel of the commltte has not yet been agreed upon, nor ths number or members. It Is asserted thai so much has already been said about ths conduct of uen. ooa in Cuba that It will be necessary to examine witnesses in that island who cannot come to the United 8tatea.

HOUSE AND SENATE CLASH.

yitch Between Leaders Over Extra Session's Adjournment on Wednesday. Stetiat Tie New York Timet. 4 WASHINGTON. Nov. hitch has arisen between the House and the Senate leaders STsr the plan to adjourn on Wednesday It has struck some of the House leaders that they can keep Congress constructively in HfllEna wiu4jy to adjourn and by adjourning fop three days at a time.

Under this arrangement the House could meet, hear a prayer by the Chaplain, adjourn for three days, then repeat the performance, and so on until the time for the extra session Is exhausted. If this plan should be carried out. the Senate would undoubtedly retaliate by doing the same thing, and there would be no business whatever transacted. The result would be to present a ridiculous spectacle, and no such test of the dignity of the two houses Is at alt likely. The House's.

spasm of resistance Is expected to come to an end probably by tomorrow afternoon, and If It has any effect It will be only to prolong tha session a day or two beyond Wednesday. The absolute Impossibility of transacting any business. If Congress remains In session Is conceded on all hands. One of the House leaders ta reported to have said, if the Senate can pass the Cuban bill in a few days after Eee. 7, the Senate can lust aa resuliv pass tbe bill In a few days at the called session." But he knows, as doeg everybody elue, that the Senate can do nothing of tbe kind under Its rules.

There la no rule by which they can be prevented front talking, and tn adjournment programme were defeated, they would lain till the called session ended. Mr. Crumpacker of Indiana sala to-dayl If we can't do arrythlna- else, we can gather for dally prayer meetings. That wilt do us some, good, anyway." me hour leaders nave not a very enthusiastic body of supporters. The Representatives want to go home.

nd so many of them have already done so that there is now no auomm. The Question of mileage Is entering into the consideration of ths question. If the extra session is kept up so ions that it merges into the regular session they will lose the mlleare for the lat' ter. Hence a very large proportion of the House Is praying that the leader will give in to tne senate. Mr.

Cullom. in ths Senate to-day. Pre sented an agreement that the Cuban Reciprocity bill shall be taken uo on the convening of the regular cession of Congress, Dec 7, and remain the order of business each dsy after the routine morning business until the IHth. on which date a vote shall be taken, the time on the 15th and letb to be equally oiviaea Between tne friends and oooonents of the bill. Tha agreement was accepted without dissent.

HANNA CHAIRMAN ON CANALS: Few Other Important Changes In the Membership of Senate's Standing. Committees. -SPfcwJ to TU New Yk Tisw. WASHINGTON, Not. Senate standing committees were announced to day.

There have been tew changes, as far as the older numbers of the Senate are concerned, and the new members have been provided, for according to the long-estab lished practice Of adding them at the bot tom of some of ths more Important commit tees and placing a few at the head of com mittees that rarely meet and have no business worth mentioning referred to them? Many of thess useless appendsges are r.aintalned simply to give the Chairmen of committees comfortable rooms for their individual use, with the accompaniment of a clerk and messenger. Among the vsrancles on thO more important committers Penrose coes to tha head nf Post OfPces, and Dillingham of Vermont takes j-eorose a place at the head ot Immigration. Manna is given the Chairmanship of Inter-oceanio Canals, succeeding Morgan, and Irydee. of New Jersey and Hopkins of Illinois are added to the Republican end. Bard of California becomes Chairman of Irrigation, which is likely to be an important committee from this time forward, by reaon of the large expenditures provldod by the Irrigation law for the reclamation of arid lands.

Kenn of New Jersey gets the Chairmanship of tho committee to audit end control the 8enste contingent expenses, a position held by Jones of Nevada for many years. It is noticeable that Rmoot of Utah 'a given no important assignments. He has te tall of the Republican end of the committee to examine the several branches of the civil service, and the Chairmanship of Standards. Weights, end Measures, neither of which cuts any figure In the business of the Senate. The Democrats completed their asslgn-Trenta Saturday.

These were added to tho list arranged by the Republicans and announcement of the full membership made to-day. C02STIEMED BY THE SEHATE. List Includes Many Promoted to the ef Brlttadler General. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.

Social to Ttt New York Timti. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 23. W. Y.

Wat- eon, a former Mlssisslppian. who la engaged In-sugar planting In Cuba, Is preparing to experiment with cotton culture on that Isl and. 4 I He recently- returned to secure several of tne nnest varieties or cotton seed, principally the long- staple variety, which he Intends to plant early next year. Mr. Watson has experimented In a small way with cotton growing In Cuba, but heretofore has been unable to procure a satisfactory variety.

He says that cotton planted on ths Island grows very high, bolls well, but has to bo cut down when the sec ond growth commences. The greatest difficulty ncountefed is that there ts no frost to check the errowth and open the bolls at ripe fruition. It will be rememDerea mat Jotm u. Calhoun, who in his day was a recognised authority on crowing cotton, always asserted that it could not be sky browned below ths frost line, and America would always have prac- ucaiiy uunupoiy ox ino staple.

Mr. Egan was connected with a number of Western roads before coming south, and commanded ths railroad forces that whipped Debs at Chicago In 1893.

The recent Mayoralty election In Pulton la In dispute, and Attorney Qullfa appearance In the Supreme Court In opposition to a motion for a recount of votes la cited as the cause for his removsl. It is stated that Mr. Guile acted without authority from the Mayor of Council and fought against the Republican organisation in the electioa contest.
