Money and liaeou in the committee on
foreign iclutions al its meeting on Fri
day last. No senator thus tar, how
ever, has shown a disposition to entry
his objections to a point nl ultimate
effort to defeat ratllleatlon. Tlie pri-i
ilpal autliors of the criticism of the
tiealy are southern sonatnis. who are
generally very anxious lor the con
struction of the canal. They tind that
all canal Icy

iieaty and they 111 e,
on this aciount,
less liable than they
otheiwi.se would

the treaty itself. The most active
friends of the tieaty now claim thai
l.itillcation will he secured iluiiup; the
present week, and the opinion is viry
ki ni'iMl that riitincatlini will he ob
tained heroic the (.'hrlslnias holidays.
Ilcyond the consideration of tin
treaty erv 'little business, will be au
di 1 taken belore the holidays. It is now
Ri-ni'ially agreed that the iiuestlon of
iccpioelty will go oer until January,
probably without so much as belitK
nieiitioned, and it may be added that
from behiK for a time the subject most
likel to atlrael I'.uly attciilloii, It has
taken a position anioui; the matters
which will not be viKoiously tiru'ed.
When the reelpioelty treaties do come
up for consideration there will be per
sistent opposition to tin' iiKi'i'i'iiient
with Kraucc, and to that with Ureal
lliitaln covi'liiiK the West Indies. There
Ih not so much iVcIIub: oer tin con
ventions with the South American re
publics. The present outlook Is itKiilnsi
any Immediate action in the senate
looking to tarllf legislation for the
Philippines and theie are some Indica
tions that the senate will wall upon the
house of icpresentalives In this mat
ter. Probably the Chinese excliis'im act

Tim nomination of Attorney (ioner.il

House Forecast,
The lioitbo this week probably will
pass a measure, to meot the sliuatloii
created by the I'hlllpplne decision of
the siiprenie court lasl .Monday. I'p ui
the present time, however, the Kopub
Ilcnn members of the ways and means
committee bavo not decided upon tint
character of the. measure which will
lio reported, a dlffeiuiuv of opliilun
cslstH as to whether there should bu 11
xeniporary enactiiieiit of the ninuiey
rates on Koods entering tliu Culled

a permanent sebniuo of tarllf h'Klsla

It Is understood that Air, I'ayne, clmlr
liiau or tltu cnimiilttee, and' Mr. Ual
Kell, of I'ennsylvanla, faviir the latter
course, The Itepubllc.iu members of
the cotninllteu will meet again tomor
row. Of course, ir It Is decided to enact
n temporary measure the pioccduie
will be exceedlimiy simple and It prob.
ably can bo passed ill a day. If on the
other baud an uutli-e scheme of tarllf
legislation is to be enacted mine time
will be consumed both In the prepaia

This is the llrst time In the history
of the American Federation of Labor
that a resolution of tills kind has been
passed upon without llrst being re
ferred to the executive council. It was
generally understood hj- the delegates
that the resolution emanated fiom the
council, and the delegates having been
made familiar with the merits ot the
strike bv their contact with the strik
ers and Hie people, it was deemed un
necessary to have the resolution re
ferred. What It Means.
The adoption of tills resolution nie.inrt
that Scr.iutoii Is to become the battle
ground of 11 big struggle between the
corporations and the labor unions, ac
cording In the beliefs of President:
Malum, of the -stieot railway employes'
union. The cuiporatlons, so he Is in
formed, have taken up the light of tho
ruilwiiy company and stand ready to
make good the losses the company is
sustaining by loason of thu boycott .
The stieot railway union has now suc
ceeded In securing the hacking of llie.
Ainoiican Federation of Labor, and Mr,
.Million proposes to make the fullest
use of the vast power the Federation
wields.
.Mr. Malum yesioiday exhibited a
telegiam t rniii lluiler, Pa., annouiuing
that the moil had boon forced into a
strike by the discharge of their griev
ance committee. A few months ago,
the men on the llutler road were or
gani.ed, with the acquiescence of Hie
company's olllclals, F.vorythlnty was
moving along haiinnuioiisly until last
week, when iho company suddenly evi
denced opposition to the union, Satur
day, the grievance iiiniiiiltten waited
on the Mipciiiilciiiloui to have a con
ference, and Instead of n'cuting t, th
nieinhiis one and all received their ills,
charges, The union nl once wont Into
session and ileclaied a stilke.
Kt'ltne opening up active hostilities,
it Is pioposoil by the Federation to
make n strollK elfoit at conciliation
