It is said by the colleagues of Re presentative Kluttz in the House that he will return to Washington within a few days, and will be in ' his seat at the "time the vote is '. taken in the House upon the Porto Rican bill, which is expected to be taken" next Monday afternoon. Mr. Kluttz, in common with all of the Democratic members from North Carolina, and Virginia, is ' opposed to the passage of 5 the bill which is now pending to maintain a customs tariff between this coun try and Porto Rico. The. contest election cases; are likely to be brought up in ihe House very soon. It is said that nn effort may be made . next week to take up the1 cose of Wise against Young, involving the title to the seat in the House from the 2nd Virginia district. The report of f the committee in this case is ad- verse to Mr. Young, the Democrat ic sitting member, and favors the seating of Dr. Wise, who was a member of the last v presentatives.

Roth of these, gentlemen are very popular among all of the members of the House, having numerous friends on 'the Republi can side of the chamber, as well as on their own side of the politi , cul aide. It is'said that when the cae of. Pearson against Crawford is taken up, and a vote reached; a number of Republicans intend to abnent themselvesj thus refraining from voting, or having their names jappear on the roles as present and not voting, and that by this means they hope to give Crawford a ma jority in the House to enable him to retain his seat.
