CONGRESS.
WIEN WILL IT ADJOURN.

WHEN WILL IT ADJOURN!
specta4 D.soateh to The Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct 7.-Plans are be-
ing discussed to secure An adjournment OF lne
special session at the end Of the coming week
If possible. Speaker Randall and Vfce-President
Wheeler have had conferences upon this SUD
ject. The former has given out that it Is prac~
ticable It would be entirely possible SO far as
the House is concerned if the Democrats should
decide upon 1t as a party policy. The necessary
appropriation bills could be pushed in three
days il there was no. disposition to debate
Democrats generally hive stated, however, that
they should debate the deficiency estimates
from the Navy Department, In order to ascer-
tain how it was that e1-Secretary Robson ere
ated SO large deficiency in the pay account
II this debate should once begin. 1t would be
DIFFICULT TO LIMIT IT.
There is also very strong desire, especially
among Western and Southern men OF both par
ties, to have some action with respect to the re-
peal Of the Resumption net. Leaders OF this
movement have said to-day that they should
oppose any attempt to adjourn until there hao
been an opportunity for consideration ot that
question. The Eastern Democrats are quite as
anxious to avoid a discussion Of this subject,
at least until after the November elections.
The Senate can scarcely dispose OF Its nomlna-
tiops in 4 week, and attend to the appropriation
bills which will be sent from the House, as it
Is now apparent many OF the nominations VIII
he yery closely scrutinized, and while they Will
for the most part undoubtedly be confirmed,
the indications are that more time thao 4suaI

these circumstances it is difficult to see how 1t
viii he possihje to reconcile the conflicting eie-
menus 20 that adjournment can t4ke place the
coming week.
Gen Arthur, Collector OF New York,
REFUSES TO RESIGN
o1,hough he was asked to do SO some DAYS ago.
This will complicate the confirmation ot New
York appointments. Arthur has saiu that nc
declines to comply with the request 1or lne
reason that Senator Conkling secured INN tne
nosition, and that he proposed to stand ~ that
Eenator. The Inference from this is that Conk-
line nav intend to anta@onize the confirmation
of Roosevelt. To prevent this antagonlsH1, or 1t
least postpone it, requests have been mate upon
the President that lie should not send these

Senator Jones is confident that the silver re-

siderable majority There arc now Two ol1Is 1nncs tot

THE CASE OF WYATT-The Carson Valley
News which came to hand last evening makes
statement of the facts concerning the sudden
death of W. G, Wyatt, from which we extract
as follows ''He left Cradlebaugh Thursday
morning about 9 o'clock to 90 to Chas Tay-
lor's ranch, Pine-nut, with letter to Taylor
from Cradlebaugh. He seemed to be in his
usual state of mind. Was found i'll the cor
her of the fence inside the pasture, short
distance this side of Cradlebaughs, last Sat
urday night. Tracks showed that he had
walked from the road to the fence, few rods
distant, set his cane over and leaned it against
the fence on the inside, as though he designed
climbing over, The supposition is that when
he reached the top Of the fence he was
attacked with vertigo, induced by chronic
disease of the brain, and fell headong to the
ground. There were few slight scratches
on the head, and some signs of blood i'll the
mouth The marks in the sand on which he
was lying showed signs of terrible commissions
The body was first discovered late Saturday
evening. The Coroner took charge Of the
body next morning and summoned Jury of
inquest An empty vial was found in his
pocket, and the first presumption was that he
had committed suicide by taking poison. A
chemical test of the few remaining drops in
the bottle was sufficient, however, to satisfy |
the jury that such was not the case, and |
post mortem examination was demanded.

How a Paper is Made.

Pray. how is paper made r
The question is easy TO ask;
But answer it fully, my dear,
Were rather a difficult task
And yet, in a bantering way.
As the whip poor will sings in the glade,
I'll venture a bit of lay,
To tell how paper is made!
An editor sits al his desk,
And ponders the things that appear
To be claiming the thoughts Of the world
Things solerpn and comic and queer;
And when he has hit on theme
He judges it well to parade,
Tie writes. and he writes. and he writes
And that's how a paper is made.
IN editor sits at his desk
And puzzles his brains to make out
Telegraph" SO squabbled and mixed
1t is hard 10 tell what its about;
Exchanges are lying around.
While waiting dispatches DELAYED;
He clips and he clips, and he clips
And that's how paper is made
\ reporter out in the town.
In search of the things that are new
The things that the people have done,
The things they're intending to do
Goes pecring and prying about
For items of many grade;
He tramps, and he tramps, and he tramps,
And that's how a paper is made,
And all that these workers prepare,
Of every conceivable stripe.
Is sent to the printer, and he
Proceedeth to stick it in type
His lines, all respecting his will
In slowlnoving columns parade;
He sticks, and he sticks, and he sticks,
And that's how a paper is made.
In short. when the type is all set,
And errors cleared up, more or less,
lis locked up form as we say,
And hurried away to the press
The prcssman arranges his shears,
His ink give, the requisite shade
Then he prints, and he prints, and he prints,
And that's how paper is made.
