Curtin, chairman of the House foreign affairs committee, concerning the mysterious Senate amendment to the consular and diplomatic appro- priation bill appropriating $250,000 to carry out the Provisions of the neutrality act, and arrangements have been matle by Messrs. Curtin and Randall for a joint session of the House foreign affairs and ap- Pfopriation committees to be held at 10 o'clock vednesday morning to consider what action should be taken in the matter by the House. The ques- Uon to be discussed is whether, finding the appro- Priation a proper one, they should simply recom- mend concurrence in the Senate amendment or should introduce a resolution in the House calling upon the Secretary of State for all correspondence relating to the matter and give itto the public, Uhat they may understand the transaction. It 13, thought the latter course will be followed. Gov. Curtin said toa Star reporter to-day that having received his information as an official cour- tesy from the Secretary of State he Was not now at Niberty to make the matter public. He said, how- ever, that it related to the settlement of the Nicar— ae question and wasa knotty and dificult diem.
