Washington, Feb. '.’7. When (hr
Session opened to-day the gullerie
were well tilled in anticipation of n re
newal of hostilities, hut business *<* n
was directed into routine channels,
with the understanding that the San
guilly resolution would c-oine up as
soon as the business was finished At
1 o’clock the •Sanguilly resolution
esme up again and the galleries were
]lacked, Air. I’et'.lgrew uttemptc 1 to
go on with the Indian bill and
moved that this la; done, hut it was
held that the Cuban resolution hud the
right of way. In the confusion Mr.
Frye, who had stirred up the galleries
yesterday, stepped into the middle
aisle and said that he hoped that tiie
Nangullly resolution would bo allowed
to go to the calendar without further
discussion.
Mr, Lodge said the pardon of Suii
guilly did not end the matter. There
were many similar eases burled in the
secrecy of the State department.
Diplomacy hud taken twenty-three
months in the Sanguilly ease, while
the Senate iu a single day had brought
n pardon.
Mr. Call spoke of the Ruiz ease and
presented n resolution calling for in
formation on it, hut it went over on
objection from Mr. White.
Mr Male urged the necessity of giv
tng all ilie time possible to appropria
tion bills iu order to get them through.
Mr Morgan replied that Mr. Hale
had threatened to lltibuster on the
.Sangullly resolution. Mr. Morgan
spoke at some length on tin' Cuban
question.
Mr. Morgan refused the yield to in
terruptions by Messrs. Iloar uiul Hale,
saying that Mr. Hour could not inter
fere with him under the prestige of
his fume and position, lie eulogized
Consul (ieneral Lee u, n man of cour
age and honor.
Mr, Morgan said that the only in
formation of .Sangullly'* pardon eume
from the newspaper*. Nothing was
received from the state department.
He dlil not wonder that the President
desired to conceal Ins policy from the
American people.

Chairman Hitt assured the commit
tee that ill ease the Senate should pass
the Munguilly resolution he would cull

Yesterday afternoon tin- stale de
partment requested luat the Senate
committee on foreign relation* * hotlid
not pn its resolution demanding tiie
immediate release u! lienerai -iuiio
Sanguilly from u Spanish prison in
Cuba. This morning the committee
met again and gave the subject curefit,
attention but declined to great the
request.
It appeared from the statement of
the -.cereiary of stale that tin; Spanish
government's promise t.o release Han
guilly was coupled wit li the provision
that lie should wifhdrav. his appeal
from the second • *nteilee of the Cuban
court, and ii v..i-. i.iami mai
could hi -ci-ured .it an time that tliis
condition should be complied with.
The commit tee's discus ,'on was on this
point, and tlie opinion was generally
expressed that for Sanguilly to pursue
this course would he inadvisable for
the reason that it would amount to an
acknowledgment of guilt mid would be
.‘Univalent to tlie abandonment of any
claims that he might have against the
Spanish government for damages. The
committee, therefore, decided to press
the consideration of the resolution.

About noon u dispatch came from

had tiled in the Havana court papers

the supreme court of justice of Madrid

The Cuban resolutions were taken
up promptly bv the Senate to-day.
Tin- lirst was that of Mi-. Allen, a-king
the (’resident to us ■effective measures
to protect American cit./.cns in t uba,
and to that end to send I'lilted States
warships to I'nbuit ports, lie said
that American citizens were daily be
ing arrested in t'uhu and thrown into
prison without any trial. It seem at
to he the disposition of Spain to pun
ish every American citizen in Cuba,
it was a story of barbarity and atro
city. Recently a lady had been ar
rested by Spanish officials and roughly
searched. Little- girls had been gath
ered un in I uba and sold into the
worst conceivable slavery. Spanish
soldiers had taken infants by the
heels, hacked them to pieces and
killed tlie parents. Such action was
a blot on the civilization of the age.
Why should • ongivs* remain supine'.'
The time would com- w hen this inac
tion would make Americans hang
their heads.
Mr. Morgan said the committee on
foreign relations had pressed forward
this protection to American citizens as
fust as the well authenticated facts
would permit. The reports of atroci
ties against women ami little girls
were vague and did not have that
verification warranting actum by the
committee It had. however, brought
forward the resolution fur the immedi

In the crowded galleries tliei? was a
tumultuous and long continued dem
onstration .such as neither brnurh of

I Ik- \ ice I'resident strove vainly to
check it He rose to l.ls feet, pounded

menacing warning to the galleries
that they would he cieured if the dem
onstration uus continued. “This is

he sternly.
i Mr. Mills of Toxas was quickly on
Ills feet. “The galleries are tilled
with American citizens," he exclaimed,
j “and they have a right to express their
feelings on tills question."
Mr. liule hud ugaiu risen and, with
a tinge of bitterness, suiil of the state
ment which iias aroused such an oilt
, break: “The Senator lias told the
whole story. It is not tin- release of
Sungitilly that is wanted War is
what is wanted Arid I say that this
country will not Is- driven to war in

Tlie storm subsided somewhat as
Mr. Hoar, turning to the report on the
Sungiiilly ease, pointed out some in
definite features to it.

to the city to attend a dinner given iu

with Mr. MeMilliu of Tennessee. Mr.

deserted their sects and hurried to

aisle to his old seat near the center
aisle. The Democrats gave him a
roil ml of hearty applause, the people
in the galleries craned their necks and
took up the demonstration, 'there
, were several wild shouts. Many of the
Republicans joined in the welcome to
their old colleague. The first was
; .lodge Strode of Nebraska, his suc
cessor in congress. Among the others
were Hitt of Illinois, W. Stone of
Pennsylvania. Dalzell of Pennsylvania

became wij great that Speaker

seats from the lobby, around to the
Speaker's rostrum, where he shook

THE PRODIGAL DAUGHTER.
This l nli|ni- I’nrald* I* Wrlfllj1 t'p to
Date.
There was a rertaln rich woman WlK>
hail two daughters, and the younger
said unto the mother: "Mother, yield
unto me that portion of your wealth
which is my heritage." And her moth
er did even so. observes the New York
Herald. And it came to pass that the
young woman gathered together tier
bicycle repair kit and her heritage and
Journeyed into a far country, which
was Kansas, the land of cyclones and
emancipated women. And the multi
tudes of emancipated women gathered
about her in exceeding great numbers
and gave unto her the merry hand, for
she was possessed of exceeding great
wealth. Moreover, they were struck
with the mannish cut of her nether gar
ments. And they jollied the young
woman mightily and nominated her for
governor. And she stumped the state
and spuke speeches, which were In
scribed for her by a notary. And soon
she had wasted what her mother had
given her In ice-cream and trolley par
ties for her constituents. And when
she hud spent a 11 she became wroth In
the collar, for she had lost the election
and those who had fawned upon her In
prosperity now sat upon the seat of
the scornful and greeted her with the*
marble heart. After she had suffered
awhile she bethought herself of her
mother’s house and tin* hot biscuit,
which tier father used to Irak'*. And
sin* lifted tier voice and wept and rent
iter bloomers in twain and said: I
will arise and go unto my mother."
And slip did even so. And it came to
pass that on th** evening of the fourth
day, as she was pedaling wearily up
the bicycle path leading to iter horn *
her mother saw her from afar off and
ran to greet her and fell noon her ne. !<
and kissed her. And the wanderer
cried:
‘ Mother, I am no longer worthy to
he called thy daughter, for I had great
wealth anil yet was defeated In poli
ties," '
But her mother sought to soothe her
and gave unto her a new bicycle lamp
and a cyclometer. And said unto the
servants:
"Bring swell raiment and order mut
ton, with peas on the side, and we will
eat, drink ami he merry, for the wan
derer Is returtud ami she that was lost
Is found." And stringed Instruments
discoursed the sweet strain* of "She
May Have Seen Better Days.” and tin
serving man, as he shuffled to und fro.
hummed softly to himself, ".lust Tell
Them That You Saw Me." And they
fell upon the mutton and devoured it as
one man and with exceeding gusto, and
the only discontented one in the whole
multitude was their neighbor, who
mourned the loss of a dog. But the serv
ant man spoke as one having authority,
saying: "Our neighbor's loss is our
gain." And It was even so.
HOUSES IN LONDON AND BER

Affording t<» Moltkc*.
1 live at Berlin In a house where
there are eight families, each of course
Inhabiting a separate part, says "Molt
ke's Letters to His Wife." Only the In
evitable piano practices break through
the harriers, and that Is certainly not
less the case here, where the walls are
so thin, than with us in our more mas
sively built houses. The only real dif
ference consists in this, that the “cas
tles" of the Kugllshmeu are built up
close to one another, while ours- are
above one another, and that in eon
sequence thereof we have our rooms all
oil one floor, while theirs occupy sev
eral floors. One can safely assert that
by far the larger number of the houses
in London have frontages of only two
or at most three windows in width.
They live on the middle door, take their
meals on the ground floor and sleep
on the upper floor. As a consequence,
there is a total absence of reception
rooms. Should any one wish to invite
tin- court to a hail, lie lias to gc; a
large temporary room erected in tin
court-yard for dining purpose*, another
as a retiring-room for tin- qu* -u. while

STRONG AND WEAK SPELLING.
rri-ulDrltle* nf the Tiro Ureat Clone*
of Dabbler* in Ortlioera|ihy.
Speaking in a broad and general
way. an 1 admitting lhat every one
it liable tj misspelt a word of tho
Knglish language at some time in
hit life, spellers, says tho Month’s
t 'ompanion, may he divided into two
classes tho ••stioicj spellers” and
tlic “weak spellers." What “strong
spelling" means may b.- illustrated
by the orthographical maxim anil
practice of an excellent gentleman
who is now dead. Ills rule was:
“Never misspell a word for the want
of putting in enough letters . ” Act
ing on this principle lie spelled girl
gearle, do doe, and get gette. This
trail would seem to indicate a liberal
disposition, and this gentleman was
certainly a very liberal tnfndeJ man.
His “strong spelling" (lid not prevent
liitn from serving the public accepta
bly in several capacities.
Another strong speller always in
sisted upon writing tlu word
••pomps" thus: perhapse. Though
be was frequently remonstrated with
and repeatedly told that there was
no liual e on the word lie continued
to spell it that way. A thoroughly
“strong speller” always seems to be
accorded a certain sympathy and
even admiration by those who ordi
narily spell correctly, while a “Weuk
speller” Is always laughed at.
What “weak spelling"’ means muy
'ne illustrated by the case of a gentle
man who recently wrote “enthusi
asm” thus: entheusatn, and who gen
erally spelled “suggest” soji-st. The
fame gentleman is known to havo
spelled |ie:,ally pelenty. nut a pc
cnliacfty of his eaIn 1 lint lie never
niii.prmumnceh a word, and a I way •
