C, March 20. : A number of United States Sen ators have gone to Cuba on a trip for investigation and pleasure, the party is composed of Senators Nelson E. Aldrich, wife, daughter And son ; Teller of Colorado, and wife ; Piatt, of Connecticut,- and wife, and Mr. John D. Rockfeller. It was the intention of the par- ty to stop over at Palm Beach and also at Key AVest, Florida, before going to Havana.' The object of the trip is partly for the puxposen of investigating the conditions in Cuba, andto ascertain the course which shoul d be pursued by xhe United States Congress Howards the Islands, The Senators desire to gain all ' information possible, and prefer to visit the Islands per sonally that they "may ascertain the true $tate:of affairs, and it is expected that when they return to Washington they will be . able to give the Senate and t he country the benefit of the knowledge gain ed by them, which will be impor tant to themselves and the coun try in the coming debates in - the Senate concerning Cuban matters. In speaking of Cuba, it is not the belief that during the present session' there will be much direct legislation concerning Cuban matters. It is expected that there will be an early adjournment of Congress. That is", at least, , the desire of the larger majority of the Senate and House, and the opinion is among most members that the discussion pf Cuban mas ters can best be postponed until after the presidential elections. After Congress.' reconvenes after the summer recess, for the short session, it is felt that the disouss- lon can be undertaken more pro itably than at the present session.
