C Pritchard's suffrage resolution may yet have an important bearing on na tional politics. It was reported favor ably today by the committee with an amendment concerning congressional representation. The resolution, as amended and re ferred to the senate, is to instruct the committee on privileges and elections to inquire whether an enactment, by constitution or otherwise, by any state, which confers the right to vote upon any of its citizens because of their descent from certain persons, and excludes other citizens because they are not descended from such per sons or class of persons, persons so ex cluded having all other qualifications prescribed by law, is in violation of the, constitution - and fundamental principles of our government, and also whether citizens so excluded can lawfully be reckoned in determining tne numwei ujl iic- sentatives from any state in the house of representatives. Senator Chandler reported the reso lution, and asked for immeaiate con sideration, but a number of appropri ation bills were up for action and it went over. The resolution is very likely to pass this session if the sen ators do not show a disposition to dis cuss it at too great length. was a makeshift intended, to meet a political emergency' and without seri ous intention of finally beiflir incor porated in the constitution.' But, ht said, he differed with the minority as to what should be done.- He would vote for it; because he believed the fed eral government should have enlarged powers rather than that it should not exercise any power at all. He appealed to the democrats to join in passing the resolution and sending it to the republican senate. Let the senate, he urged, take the responsibil ity of defeating it. Mr. Thayer, of Massachusetts, defined a trust as a "business bastard' Vwhich Mr. Hanna could not palm off as the result of thrift, push and fair dealing of the American people. Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, devoted a few minutes to ex plaining that the failure of the Ohio republicans to nominate Attorney General Monnett in Ohio does not in dicate that they were opposed to the prosecution of trusts. Mr. Monnett had had two terms and it was the well established rule that no man should be a candidate for office a third time. Besides, he said, Mr. Monneft was not a candidate for re-election. The house failed to adopt the anti trust amendment to the constitution, veas 154. navs 133. a two-third vote necessary for its adoption not materi alizing. Five democrats voted with the republicans in the affirmative and two republicans voted with the democrats in the negative. The senate today decided not to re cede from its position with regard to the price of armor plate by a vote of 63 to 0. It passed the military academy appropriation bill, with provisions raisine the rank of the commanding general of the army to lietenant gen eral and adjutant general to major general.

There is not a word of news concerning South Africa from- an official source and practi cally nothing from other sources. An undated despatch to the Telegraph from Matf eking says , that part of the column there is leaving to join General Hunter's main force at Maribogo Junction, where they expect to arrive Thursday. The combined force will then probably advance to Liechten burg. According to a despatch from Ve- -reeninging, dated May 27, none of the Free State burghers crossed the Vaal river. President Steyn and a certain number of followers are reported to have fled to Vrede. BOER REPORT OF BRITISH RE VERSES. Lorenzo Marques, June 1.
