Washington Jan It The consldera
tlon of the silver bond bill proceeded In
the senate today with Mr Peffer con-
tinuing hU speech begun esterday In-
terest In the discussion hi begun to
lag as wan evident by the scant attend-
ance on the fl r the galUrtcs
An et no suggestion has been made
a to bringing the meuiure to a vole
Foreign resolullori received consid-
erable Attention during the day Mr
Hale spokf lor on hour In favor of a
raclflc cable connecting the United
States and Hawaii The senator ex-
pressed the opinion that the annexa-
tion of the Hawaiian Islands to the
United States were certain to be ac-
complished at un early day
The Cuban question wan briefly dis-
cussed In view of Mr Calls resolution
calling on the slate department for In-
formation as to tho status of the up-
rising
The Monroe doctrine also received at-
tention in n resolution by Mr tiewrll
IN J stating that Prusldent Oee
1 iiiJ attitude was fin extension of the
doctrine beyond Its original scopi
A resolution was adoptid nouratlng
the state department for further Infor
flon on the Turkish Armenian uffalrs
Among the motions rciuntcl to tho
fsnate was one by Mr Cullom Hep
lib which was n greed to aalclng tho
sUt department for Information as to
whether naturalized cltlrens of Armen-
ian birth were allowed to visit urker
whether their families living tn Turkey
were allowed to depart for the United
States and whether American living
In Turkey had tho same Hunts nnweiu
accorded to citizens of Great Hrltuln
Qcrmnry Franco nr Husa
Mr Call Dem Fla offered n resolu-
tion directing the eerelury of state to
snd to congress alt dispatches from
United State consuls In Cuba concern
Ins the pietent war
Mr tiewetl trtep K J offered a
resolution declaratory of tho policy of
the United States nn th Monroe doc-
trine as follows Itesolved
That the Monroe doctrine as origi-
nally propounded wa dlrectfd to the
special prevention of the threatened
e ctlon of allied powers In reference
to th revolted coton1a of Spain and
the occupation by way of colonisation
cf any supposed VrelM tirrltory on
this hemisphere Jlesolvel
2 That the question of resisting any
acquisition of territory by comment
was limited as stated by Mr Web-
ster to cases In which by rensnn of
rroxlmtty such acquisition would be
dangerous to our anrrty and the Integ-
rity f ur Institutions
2 That the tnio ground upon which
ihe Monroe announcement was based
and upon which any flmlllar position
bas bn taken rests for lis Justifica-
tion on what may be our Interest and
cur interests only and that neither by
th Mnnrn dortrliie nor any official
declaration have we ever communicat-
ed a pledge to any power or slate on
this continent that binds us to net
morally for their protection niralnst In-
vasion or encroachment by any other
power
4 That when n case arises In which
a European power proposes to es-
quire territory by Invnslon or conquest
It Is then for us to determine whether
oir safety or Integrity demands that
we shnli reilt such Invasion by armed
fore if necessary
5 That tho executive has pressed the
Monroe doctrine beyond whit was con-
template nt the lime of Its announce-
ment nnd that thit resultant sequen
of the position thu t token seema to be
a committal of Ibis government to a
proteptointe over Mexico and the Cen-
tral nnd Houth American states That
thts would be most unwise and ilcn
gcrous and would violate tho round
nnd well established poMey tint we
should avoid all entangling alliances
with foreign powers whether tbey
be European or Amrrlcon
ft That thb action wos oreJudIlaI
looking to the history of the contro-
versy and Inopportune In Mew rf the
business and financial conditions of
ths country
7 That neither congress inr the
country can be or has been
by the aotlon of the executive depart-
ment In reference to ths Venwietnn
boundary controversy as to the course
to be pursued when the lime s all
nave arrived for a ilnai determlnttlon
It will then be our province in adopt
such a line of policy and to take such
action as may thn bo demanded by
our sense of duty to the country nnd
by a due regard for Its honor nd dig
rlty the welfare and safety rr our
people ond tho Integrity of ur Insti-
tutions
TpeTubjn resolution provoked some
clscuaslcn owing to the way in which
It directod that Information be fur-
nished
Mr Sherman said such request
should not toe made when the uprising
extended all through the Island of
Cuba It might prove a serious em-
barrassment to our consuls and sub
Jeot them to persecution by the Span-
ish or the Insurgents In the discharge
of thttr duty to this country
Mr Calt said he would enove at an
arly date for the discharge of the
committee on foreign relations from
consideration of the resolution
the Cubans as belligerents He
would do this he said In order to
bring the senate to a vote on the iues
tlon without rurther delay
Mr Piatt Hep Conn said he had
beftrd uuch tilk -bout recuilsina
but he pointed out that
this was a was a question primarily
within the jurisdiction or the presi-
dent Moreover ths recognition of the
Insurgents was not to be viewed as nn
act due them but as a question nf
feetlng the United Slates If such reo
ognltlon was accord only for Its nvr
al affect and tor sympathetic reasons
fthtti It would be connldtred unonitlt
r luttonai law ami juitiy considered an
No tone doubted Mr tlatt said the
IfessVof of sympathy of our peopta to
ftiiiit Ji i niifti ttiiiitu
Kj
wards those engaged In a strugftt tor
liberty tut In s ha pin if 4h ofPiUl
course of the government there should
te no haste and every movt should
proceed according to the recvgnlMd
rules of international law
Mr Call consented that his resolu-
tion callli for Information gj ovr
for the present
Mr Hale then addressed the senate
on his bill authorizing the
to contract with the Pt
cttlc Cable company for tram in 1st Ion
of government messages between the
United Staes and Hawaii Mr Hale
Mated that In round numbers the
bill commits the United States to a
subvention of about ISWCOO It was
Plain this enterprise would bring Ha-
waii clove to our doors
The eenilor detailed the efforts of
Great Urltaln to secure Neckar Island
as a landing point for a cable snd the
frustration of Its efforts by the Ha-
waiian government sending a fast mer-
chant steamer to the Island and rats
lnp the Hawaiian flag As to the In-
fluence of the cable on the question of
annexation the senator suld he did
not care whether It would or would
not expedite that result Annexation
nuan event sure to come In the near
future and he did not want to preclit
tale It
Of one thing he felt sure that with
thU coble built all the world would
take notice that the Interests of the
two governments and the two peoples
would become so connected that at-
tempt at Interference from the outside
world would forner ceose If we
abandoned or were laggard In this
Treat project our British rivals would
take the grourM that we had left and
by hook or crook get resting place on
the llawallm Ilan4s for a treat mili-
tary and commercial Hrltlsh ocean ca-
ble
Mr Allen Pop Neb feared the
proposed arrangement would lead to
disagreeable complications He saw no
reason why the government should not
control all the tHegraph lines In the
country or those ex tendtng from this
toother countries But he was opposed
to subsidies nnd said the present
Fcheme If executed would open the
doors to an expenditure of probably
iWOOO0O0 He referred to the con
Mtnictlon of the Pacific railroad on a
subsidy saying that he thought the
irovernment ought to have built the
railroad ttrolf Ho confessed that this
wait paternalism
Mr AIWi snld the raclflc roads bad
bcn looted and plundered and tb peo
pip were now met by a dbt of ICOOOJ

for It would be the nam the senator
raid with n Pacific cable company
Another corporation would be created
to tend Its reeril tools to congress to
Influence legislation Mr Alen sail
be favored the Nicaragua fnnol nnd a
Pacific cabin if thy wee built and op

At the close of Mr Allens speech the
cable bill was referred to the committee

the 400ouo It waa sild had been arbi-
trated and awarded to the owners of

Mr Uiow demanded to be allowed to
sptak upon it as a question of privilege
but Mr Crisp Duo Ui made tne
point that the pamphlet pilntod was no
question of privilege
Mr Grow coniuidod that since reflec-
tions upon members of the house were
quistloiu of privilege reflections upon
the whole house was much more privi-
leged
lhe board of arbitration did not
award a dollar of damages Mr Grow
declared if that had been done It
would have been dishonest not to pay
It and It Is a reflection upon the bouse
to say Pint vncli an twuwl was nude
and not paid
Here the speaker ruled that no ques-
tion wf privilege wns put whereupon
Mr Grow too1 his seut saving Well
1 am satisfied
A bill wan passed authorizing tbe
leasing of landd lu Arizona for eduia
tlonal purposes

ation of the pension bill and an order
was adopted that general debate be
closed today and the bill be taken up
In paragraphs tomorrow under thelHu

Mr Clarke Uep la thought the

icy the government mlnlit soon have a

Mr Groscnor favored the amend-
ment restoring pensioners to the pen-
