Earaeet effbrta are being' made by the administration leaders to avoid this eon tingency. The situation, however, is res dertd much less favorable than it was at the beginning ot the session, by the tan that the Demoorats hare practically lost control of the Senate, and aro so divided ohfloaaelal Issues la the House as to be practically id a minority in that chamber upon many 01 the leadlag questions at issue.

This will be followed by another partisan debate on the amendment, also recom mended by the Senate committee on appro priations, to appropriate $6,000 tot the exe cution of the obligations ot the United States la the protection of the interests and prop erty or the United States in the SamoAs Islands, under the existing treaty with the government of those islands and with the governments of Germany and Great Britain.
