says program ne for the called session has been
successfully number of prominent Democrats 1t
is to meet, organize and appoint but one committee,
that on appropriations, who will at once agree upon
and report to the House legislative executive and
judicial appropriation bill, exactly like that reported
and passed by the House at the last session This is
to be passed by the House at once without amend
ment 1t will then go to the Senate and receive
equally expeditions acion without amendment It
will be then sent to the p eident for his approval or
veto. No other measure, not even an army appro-
priation bill, will be considered until the Legislative
bill reaches the President. If he approves 1t, an
army appropriation bill will bs put through both
Houses without delay and if it is approved Congress
will adjourn without taking up any other legislation.
If, however, President Hayes vetoes the Legislative
bill, the programme is to adjourn without even con-
sidering amy bill. If MIR. Hayes calls another
session the same programme is to be carried out AT
all events, the proposition is to make the called SEES
sion very Short whether the purpose tor which it is
called is accomplished not It will be determined

committee than that on appropriations, and to shut
off all other legislation This plan, 1t is said is in
