A Washington dispatch says the dis.
agreement OF conference committee on
the consular and diplomatic appropri.
alton bills indicates very promising
prospect of a deadlock between the
two Houses on the appropriation bills,
which may lead to very disagreeabls
consequences. Mr.. Randall the chair
man of the House appropriation COM
mittee, is very positive in the state.
ment that the House will not reoeds
from the figures at which it has passed
and will pass the appropriation bills
The Senate committee is just as pos.
tive in its determination not to consent
to the reductions made by the House
In behalf of the executive department
it is announced that a determination
exists to strictly comply with the b!
which prohibits any expenditure OF
of money not authorized by act Of
Congress. Therefore if the disagree
ment between the two Houses results
in no appropriation bills being passed
by the Both of June or the LIST of July,
every department of the public service
will be brought to stand still. me
President, as he has said, will fecau
all cur diplomatic and consular repro,
sentatives, the custom houses anu
postoffices will be closed, the Unl'eo
States courts will suspend. and toe
whole government machinery brong"
