Special Despatch TO the World.
WASHINGTON, June 26.-The pro-
ceedings of Congress to-day have made
1t impossible to secure an adjournment
tomorrow or on Saturday, and there
are some indications that delay of sew
eral days is possible. The two bills rela-
tive to judicialexpenses, which have come
to be designated as No. | and No. 2,
were considered by the House Appropri-
ations Committee this morning and re-
ported early in the session. The first
bill was passed in the latter part of the
afternoon without material amendment
and sent to the Senate, which body be-
ing In session until late hour received
1t and referred it to its Committee on
Appropriations. The second bill was
taken up In the House and an agree
ment made that debate should be limit
ed to half an hour OH each side. A ma
jority of the members of the House were
evidently in favor of finishing II if posi-
BILE tonight, but some forty of the Demo-
cratic members, led by Mr.. Hooker and
Mr.. Cobb, thought 1t best to adjourn,
and In order to prevent anything like
filibustering the remainder of the House
soon consented to an adjournment. II
is doubtful whether the debate on the
bill tomorrow will be limited to one
hour and it is not quite certain, though
1t is probable, that the bill can pass, for
If those who are opposed to it choose to
refrain from voting there will not be a
quorum.
There were about one hundred and
sixty-five members of the House prese mt
to-day and kilograms have been sent to
| all the absent Democratic members to
return. 1t Ia quite uncertain az yet what
tacuCs will be pursued In the Senate
either by the Republicans or the few
Democratic Senators who opposed the
caucus programme. Some Of fhe latter
| express an entire willingness to spend
the remainder Of the summer on this
business If need be. IL Ia probable that
the next move tow ards an adjournme mt
will be concurrent resolution Saturday
to adjourn on Tuesday.
The debate on "bill No. ]" TO provide
tor the courts, with the exception of the
marshas, was not an important one.-
Many amendments were offered, but
only one was adopted and that one did
not aiter the meaning of the bill. Mr.
Baker, of Indiana, for the Republicans
moved the insertion of the item of 5000.
900 for the marshals. Mr.. Oscar Turner
of Kentucky, for himself alone, moved
to strike out the proviso that there
should be no discrimination against
jurors on account of race, color or pre-.
vious condition of servitude. No one
else voted for the motion. The other
amendments were not important. Mr.
Conger undertook to misrspresent In
toto the attitude Of the two parties In
| the House on the unf1 nished Senate bill
relative to jurles, which contains the
same provisions as this appropriation
bill, and was sharply reproved for doing
1t by the Speaker, who occupied a seal
upon the floor while the bill was In
Committee of the Whole. Efforts were
made to alter the pay ofjurors and some
other details of the bill, but all came tc
naught. There was not captious opposi
ton to the bill on either side of the
House, but both sides showed a great
desire to hasten its passage. The Re
publicans finally voted against 1t, but
the Nationals, with the exception oi
| Fors. ythe, voted with the Democrats
