CONGRESS FORECAST.

Probable Program of the Senate and House.

A WEEK DEVOTED TO SPEECHES.

In the Senate the Time Will Be Divided Between the Discussion of Finances and the Monroe Doctrine Appropriation

Bills Will Occupy the Time of the

House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—The present indications are that the time of the senate will be divided this week between the discussion of finances and the Monroe doctrine, the latter being based upon the Davis resolution and the former on the free coinage substitute for the house bond bill. Several senators, including Teller, Daniel, Cockrell and White will speak on the silver bill during the week, and the probabilities are that the consideration of the bill will not be concluded when the end of the week is reached. No vote will be secured until the Utah senators take their seats, but it will come Boon after that time.

The silver substitute is the unfinished business, which fact gives it precedence over all other matters each day after 2 o'clock, thus rendering it impossible to take up the Monroe resolution except during the morning hour, unless by general consent. Senator Pugh has given notice that he will try to secure a vote on his resolution for the payment of government obligations in coin instead of gold alone, but his success in that direction is doubtful. The tariff bill will be reported during the week if Senator Jones of Nevada gives his consent.

The house will devote the coming week to consideration of appropriation bills unless a move is made to recognize the Cubans as belligerents. It is quite probable that the question may be presented to the house in some shape. The committee on foreign affairs has as yet proposed no resolution on the subject, but there are many indications that the whole question will be considered in the house before long. The urgent deficiency and military academy appropriation bills, which are ready, go to make up the regular work for the week.

New Flat Building: Burned.

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.—An overheated furnace in a new flat building at Wabash avenue and Thirty-sixth street started a destructive blaze last nigV The building was unoccupied, but h..J. been almost completed at a cost of $50,000. Its destruction was total, and considerable damage was done to the Fleur de Lis apartment house adjoining. The latter structure was filled with families, 20 flats being occupied. A panic resulted for a time among the occupants, and many removed their effects to the streets, where they remained until the fire was controlled.

Top of His Head Torn Off.

DELAWARE. O., Jan. 20.—Saturday afternoon George McCarty and son Frank started from their home, in Williamsville, to this city. When they arrived at the home of his brother-in-law, George Slane, Frank concluded he would help cut wood. Slane and young McCarty went to the woods to cut down a tree, taking a gun along. When the tree fell a limb struck the gun, causing an explosion, the load taking effect in McCarty's head, tearing the entire top off. He died almost instantly.

Store and Office Building Burned.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—The 2-story brick store and office building, corner Park avenue and Forty-second street, was gutted by fire yesterday. Total loss $60,000 partially covered by insurance.

THE FIGHTING GOES ON

A Few More Skirmishes Have Occurred in Cuba.

INSURGENTS MAKE THE ATTACKS.

After Short Battles They Retreat bat Manage to Do

a

Vast Amount of De­

struction in the Meantime—General "Valerino Weyler the New Governor of Cuba. Iatest Cuban War News.

HAVANA, Jan. 20.—A report comes from Santa Clara that the insurgent band of Alberto and Pastor Rejas, which is apart of the force from the eastern provinces which Maximo Gomez ordered to the relief of the insurgents in the west, has made an unsuccessful attempt to break through the military line of La Trocha. This band came from Placetas and they attacked the Spanish forces near Las Cruces, on the railroad running from Cienfuegos and Sagua La Grange, which approximately marks the La Trocha military line.

The insurgents have also attacked a fort on the plantation of Constancia, in the Cienfuegos district, and, it is said, were repulsed with a loss of six killed.

A train from Neuvitas, in the province of Santiago de Cuba, was dynamited by the iusurgents and the engine destroyed. No details are given of the casualties.

In Havana province the insurgents attacked a Spanish detachment at the plantation of Averhoff, near Aguacato, and are reported to have been repulsed with heavy loss. The troops had two killed and six wounded.

Reports have been received of an engagement between Colonel Galbis and the insurgents near Batabano. It is said the insurgent forces that attacked him were tiiose of Gomez. The troops met the attack of the insurgents on their knees and withheld their fire until the enemy was within a short distance. The report says that the insurgents left 11 killed on the field and nine more were found in a canefield a short distance away. The Spanish artillery diJ good execution. The insurgents retreated, it is reported, with a numerous loss, while the loss of the troops was insignificant.

Although the report thus states that Gomez was repulsed and defeated, it is reported that he moved afterward south of Melena upon Guinas and in the direction of the village of San Nicolas. These points are east of the military line of Batabano, and would indicate th'-t Gomez was successful in his attempt to break through that line.

During his operations Saturday Gomez invited Bario and Pueblo Nuevo within the limits of Pinar del Rio. The garrison made a heroic defense, the colonel taking part in the battle, and upon being charged with the bayonet the insurgents are reported to have retreated with a numerous loss. The troops lost nine.

Gomez is now proceeding in the direction of Cienaga de Zapata, the great swamp in the southern part of Matanzas, for the purpose, it is supposed, of awaiting a junction there of the forces which are advancing from the eastern provinces

A large force of the insurgents, con-

sisting of the bands of Rabi and Jose Maceo, passed the village of Manjuari yesterday.

The insurgents have burned the railroad station at Caobas, only a few miles from Matanzas.

The column of Major Cedeno fought the band of Leoncio Yidal on the plantation of Natalia in the district of Sagua, the insurgents losing eight killed and five taken prisoners. The troops lost one killed and one taken prisoner.

The station at San Cayetano in Havana province has been burned. There is to be no change in the policy of the government in Cuba, it is announced, as the result of the recent changes in executive officers. It is also asserted that polititical reforms will be inaugurated as soon as the progress of the war will allow No further specifications are given as to what the contemplated reforms are, or how far they will extend.

A dispatch from Madrid asserts that General Duke Alumada is to be appointed centixrian in place of General Arde-. rius.

It is reported that 150 persons have taken passage on the steamer Olivette for her next trip to Florida.

General Sabas Marin has been named as captain general of Porto Rico in sucsession to General Gamir, whose death from yellow fever has just occurred.

General Campos will not accept the presidency of a supreme court of war and marine, though he thanks the government for its attention and for the courtesies he received while he was captain general.

Story Told by Steamer T'asseng'ers.

TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 20.—The steamer Olivette last night brought 45 refugees here from Cuba and last night landed 130 in Key West. Three hundred refugees are already booked for the next trip and additional benches and cots will be taken to accommodate them. Those arriving last night say that if one does not participate in the revolution they must leave Cuba or join Spanish forces. Those able to leave are doing so, but the less fortunate will join the revolution and greatly swell the Cuban army.

General Martinez Campos is expected by the next steamer to return to Spain through the states and New York. There is some talk here of giving General Campos an ovation when he arrives.

Cuba's New Governor.

MADRID, Jan. 20.—General Valcrino Weyler has accepted the appointment to the governorship of Cuba. He will sail for that island on Friday next. General Suarez Valdes lias been appointed second in command.

Weyler Will Not lie Lenient.

LONDON, Jan. 20.—A dispatch to The Times from Madrid says thatf General Weyler, the newly appointed governor of Cuba, will abandon the lenient policy toward the insurgents and adopt a complete change of tactics.

Cuban Flag liaised in Texan.

GALVESTON, Jan. 20.—At a secret meeting here yesterday of the Cuban club the flag of the insurgents, called the Cuban flag, was raised over the headquarters of the club.
