An Arizona Judge Answers in the Affirmative.

pfiflPHCENlX, A. T., Dec. 4.—By a ruling of Judge Baker in the United States court, Pima Indians were recognized as citizens of the United States.

OPES FOR BUSINESS.

Senators and Members the President's Message.

MANY NEW BILLS INTRODUCED.

Text of Senator Allen's Resolution For the Recognition of Cuba—Stewart's TimeHonored Bill For Free Silver Causes

Xevity Among the Sages Numerous Bills by Peffer. WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.—The senate

plunged into real business yesterday. Naturally the president's message attracted the main attention of the day, but aside from this there were stirring resolutions on the Monroe doctrine and the Cuban rebellion, and after that the usual deluge of bills and resolutions, running far up into the hundreds.

The message was given the closest attention from all quarters of the chamber. At its conclusion Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts offered a resolution vigorous in terms, reaffirming the principles of the Monroe doctrine, and presenting them in such a form as to permit their enactment as a permanent law, rather than an expression of the policy advocated by President Monroe. In the same line was a resolution by Mr. Cnllum, Illinois, and another by Mr. Allen (Pop., Neb.).

The Cuban situation received attention from both the Florida senators. The Call resolution will be called up today, so that Cuba and the Monroe doctrine will receive early attention.

At the brief executive session the nominations of Mr. Olney, as secretary of state, and Mr. Harmon, as attorney general, were confirmed, and that of Rufus E. Peckham to the supreme bench referred to the judicial committee.

There were 272 bills and 16 resolutions introduced in the senate yesterday, but a large majority of the bills were reprints of measures which failed to pass last session. Many of these, as also a large proportion of the new bills, were for private purposes. There were also several for tlie modification of the pension laws. Senators Peffer, Stewart and Squire reintroduced their bills of last session, pertaining to silver coinage.

Senator Petti grew introduced a bill to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy and reintroduced his bill of last session to prevent the extermination of the fur-bearing animals of Alaska.

Senator Vest introduced his bill of last session to prohibit monopoly in tlie transportation of cattle to foreign countries and also his bills for the compulsory education of Indian children, and the settlement of private land claims.

Senator Chandler reintroduced his bill for the exclusion of alien anarchists and his bill for the regulation of immigration.

Senator Frye introduced a bill providing for tlir- amendment of the tariff laws so as to admit free of duty all material used in the. construction or equipment of vessels built in the United

,. States. He also presented several other

Geoige Wan en, iieai Piospect. lie cued for the encouragement of American shipping and American shipbuilding

and gc-:err! bill-cfo amend the. law relating to navigation and to TWO.vent discrimination against American sailing vessels engaged in the coastwise trade.

There was a lipple of laughter as Mr. Stewart (POT.. Nev.) reintroduced his time honored bill for the "free and unlimited coinage of silver."

Mr. Call (Dem., Fla.) gave notice that he would call up his Cuban resolution today.

Mr. Cullum (Rep., Ills.) introduced a resolution on the Monroe doctrine similar to that presented by Mr. Lodge. He gave notice that he would call up the resolution as soon as permissible for the pui-pose of addressing the senate thereon.

Among the large number of bills offered by Mr. Peffer (Pop., Kan.) were those limiting the president's term to six years, without re-election repealing all laws permitting the issuance of bonds the limitation of the power of injunction.

Mr. Allen (Pop., Neb.) offered a eoncurrent resolution for tlie immediate recognition of the Cuban insurgents, the annexation of islands proximate to the United States, the upholding of the doctrine and a firmer foreign policy respecting the protection of American citizens abroad.

Mr. Allen wished to make a 10-min-ute speech oil the passage of the resolution, but it went over with the others without deba te.

Mr. Squire (Rep., Wash.) introduced a silver coinage bill, which, lie stated, sought to be a, fair solution of the present coinage problem.

Mr. Morgan (Dem., Ala.) gave notice that on next Monday he would address the senate on the British claims for Bering sea seizures. In this connection he offered a resolution for an investigation and report on the subject by the senate committee on foreign relations. At 2:50 p. m., on motion of Mr. Faulkner (Dem., W. Va.), the senate went into executive session, and at 3 o'clock adjourned until today.

House.

The session of the house yesterday was very brief and was consumed entirely by the reading of the president's message. It was listened to with fair attention, but the features of the document received no sign either of approval or disapproval from the members until the conclusion of the reading, when several Democrats created a slight demonstration. When this was finished the house immediately adjourned until Friday.

Both curiosity and interest were manifested by the members of the house in the president's message. Members ex-

pressed surprised that no recommenda-

tion was made for the supply of

K-\

Hear

the I

treasury deficit. In the discussion of foreign affairs, the portion devoted to the enforcement of the Monroe doctrine in connection with the boundary line dispute and the suggestions regarding Ouba, attracted special attention, but the main interest centered in the recommandaiaona. far the retirement of the

greenbacks and the extension or tne national banking system. Several of the Democratic leuciers who dift'sr with the president on the financial question refused to express their opinions for publication.

Bills introduced in the house included the following By Mr. Powers of Vermont, a bill to

establish a uniform system of bankruptcy. By Mr. McCall of Massachusetts, to amend the immigration laws.

By Mr. Wilson of Ohio, to equalize pensions on account of service in the Mexican war.

By Mr. Mahon of Pennsylvania, incorporating the Maritime Canal company, Nicaragua, reported by Representative Malloy of the commerce committee in the last congress.

By Mr. Chickering of New York, to ascertain the feasibility and cost of constructing a ship canal from the great lakes to the Hudson river.

By Mr. McRae of Arkansas, to strike out the provision of the constitution against levying a capitation or direct tax (a result of the income tax decision).

By Representative Hermann of Oregon, to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty.

By Representative William Stone of Pennsylvania, providing for the inspection of emigrants by United States consuls.

By Representative McRae of Arkansas, to define trusts and to authorize tlie free importation of articles covered by them.

By Representative Johnson of California, to make it unlawful after Aug. 1, 1896, for any foreign born laborer to enter tlie United States also a bill to provide that no alien shall be admitted to citizenship who has not for the continued term of five years preceding his admission resided within the United States and who can not speak, read and write the English language.

MONROE DOCTRINE.

Senator Allen's Resolution For tlie Recognition

ol'Ciilja.i

In the Interest of Waller.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.—The Kansas delegation in congress will meet this week to decide what action to take in the Waller case. Either a re?: ilution of inquiry or one rr^u—.e- 'i x.ato department officials to 1: .• steps to secure tlie release of tne ex-consul from prison will be introduced soon. The prime mover in the matter is Representative Miller, from whose congressional district Waller was appointed to the consulate. Mr. Miller said that it was evident from the president's message that the state department preferred not to have congress take cognizance of the Waller case at all at this time, but that the message would make no difference with the plans of the Kansas members. The resolution which will be introduced, he said, will probably call for all the correspondence and when that had been received congress would knowr what to do. There was no doubt, he said, in the minds of Kansans that Waller was unjustly imprisoned and that his successor, Wetter, had connived at his conviction intoad of helping to acquit him of the charges aarainst him.

I 1 An Absconder Returned.

NEW YOKK, Dec. 4.—Herbert Krahn, who was arrested here in October, has been extradited and will return to Eug1 land today on the Teutonic, in the custody of Commauder Cameron, who is a 1 lieutenant in tlie Royal Naval reserve, I and therefore a government officer.

Krahn absconded from London, according to his own confession, with a large sum of money and 10 certificates, each representing 10 shares of Canadian Pacific railwray stock. The property belonged to Mrs. Winnie Gordon.

Slain For His Sister.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.—James Lewis attempted to defend his sister from the abuse of lier husband, Andrew Gazzalo, and as a result wTas shot and killed, The shooting took place at Lake street and Ashland boulevard, where Lewis met Gazzalo and remonstrated with him for the cruel treatment of his wife.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.—Following is the full text of Senator Allen's resolution on the recognition, of Cuba and the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine:

RESOLVED, That it is the sense of the senate that the government of the United States of America should promptly recognize the revolutionists of Cuba who are now honestly struggling to secure their independence of the Spanish government as composing an independent nation possessing- all tlie rights thereof according to the laws of nations.

That all islands in close proximity to the main land of the Unived States of America should as speedily as possible by by treaties of purchase be annexed to this government as essential to our safety in time of war and the convenience and necessity of our commerce in time of peace.

That the wise declaration of President Monroe, known as the Monroe doeo.iae, is a well established policy of the government of the United States and should be promptly and effectually maintained b.v the government in its original purity and purpose.

That while the government of the United States should not needlessly or hastily embroil itself with any foreign power and should only resort to extreme measures in eases of absolute necessity a firmer and ..tore prompt policy on tae part of this government in maintaining the lights of American eiiizens abroud should be introduced and pursued.
