WASHINGTON GOSSIP Immigration Bill Has the Right of Way In the Senate, FREE HOMESTEAD LAND LAW. I - ' I I Conjcr* sr May Ad journ For the. Holiday RecvMrt Next Frldiiy-'-Citbau Question’ May Furnish a Seiniation at Any Thue. Appropriation Bills — President Cieve- . land Goes Hunting. Washington,* De. 14.—The Lodge immigration bill, as the “unfinished business,” will have the right of way in the senate each day after 2 o’clock until diposed of, and the friends of the measure have announced their determination not to cease their labor in its behalf until a vote shall be secured upon it. It is ini(H>ssible to say how much'time will be required on the bill, i but Senator Lodge is hopeful that he will get through this week. Senator Gibson has announced his • 1 purpose to talk in opposition to the bill ! but he still declines to state whether he i will resort to other tactics to defeat it. Those who oppose epneede that the bill will pass if it should reach a vote. After the immigration bill comes that providing for fr e homesteads on lands ' formerly occupied by Indians as reser- | vations. TliO present homestead law : does not. apply to these lands, and it is I claimed that the fact that it. does not: I has eog't many settlors their homestead I ‘rights. The quistion is a vital,one in ‘ i many portions of the west and has been ‘ particularly prominent in Oklahoma. ■ Senator Pettigrew is the especial chuini pion of the bill and he will show that it I was indorsed by the national eonv.en- ; tions of all the parties last summer. The l.bill will be vigorously opposed, as it is ' claimed that its emfetment into law I would cost the government no less than $26.00(1,000. It is probable that these two measures will consume the gr. ater part of the time of the senate this week, and it is quite possible that they may not be disposed of. The bill providing for the election of senators by the direct vote of the people is a special oruvr for today but it may go over to a future date. There is a possibility that congre-s may on Thursday or Friday adjourn over until after the hmmays. The Cuban question may furnish a topm for a sensation at any time. WORK IN THE HOUSE. Holiday Recess— and PaRailroad Washington, Dec. 14.—1 t has not yet been decided by tlie house when the hokday recess shall begin, but Saturday at a conference of the Republican memj bers of the ways and means committee a date as early as Friday of this week was suggested. It is even probable, however-,' that the recess will begin about Wednesday of next week and., continue until the Monday after New Years. This week, except today, which District of Columbia day, ujtd an hour of tonioiTotV, which has been s'-t aside for the consideration of the bill to transfer the pros.mt lights of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad under its governor nt charier >o the mortgagees when they reorganize, Mill be devoted to the consideration of the ttrmy and legislative appropriation bills. Th? former is completed and the latter will be put in final shape by the committee today. It is the expectation of the lei tiers that both those bills can be passed before rhe recess. Should any time remain it will probably be given, to -trie committees to call up such bills as they have on the calendar. AKBITRATIoyLJIIUiAXY, -r Negotiations Between and the United StajLe«» About Concluded. Washington, Dec. 14.—The negotiations between the United Scutes and Great Britain for a treaty of general arbitration, covering all subjects of dis- ’ ference between the two English-speak-ing nations, present and prospective, has advanced to iv stage of Completeness far beyond what the public has had reason to believe. The purpose of Secretary Olney and 'Sir Julian Pauncefote is to conclude the negotiations within the next three weeks, All of I the substantial features of the treaty i have been agreed on. From the.pres- ‘ ent status of the negotiations it is be- : ' lieved the following will be the im- ! portant terms of the treaty. 1. A term of five year* from the date of the exctiauxe of ratification within which the treaty ehali be operative. 2. A court of arbitration of six members. , three to be drawn from the..judioiary of States and three from the judiciary of Great Britain, 3. The submission to this tribunal of all ■ differences between the two nations,,now 1 pendiug- or to arise within the period of . five years, this not to include the Het-in; sea. question or the Venezuebi question, now before independent, commissions, lint ’ to include the quest ion of the boundary between Alaska, told British Columbia. The completion of this treaty will mark an importani .epoch in • relations I between the two English-speaking na ■ tions, and.in the judgment of those who have been most identified with its£O'iBuinination, it will be the most important document of a peaceful character the histjiry of their mutual dealings. Z,.' Clevelaixl Goes Gunning. Washington, Dec. 14. — President I. Cleveland left .Washington Saturday night for a shooting trip iu South Carolina waters? He was accompanied by Captain R. D?
