Early Adjournment of Congress
Expected.
LEGISLATION TO BE RUSHED WITH VIEW TO
THAT END,

In pursuance of the determination of the DEM
ocrats to terminate the present session OF Con-
gress as early as practicable the old watchword
of Economy" will not be heard Of There is
tacit underst anding that the committee on ap-
preparations shall rush in the appropriation
bills as rapidly as possible. For this reason the
sums will be based upon those passed last year,
without any material reductions. There Will be
no riders added to any Of them, nor any fea-
lures calculated to stir up political discussion.
The Marshals' deficiency appropriation bill is in
charge of Mr.. MacMahon, of Ohio: This bill may
reopen some of the questions which were prom
inent during the special session, as 1t Is
alleged that marshals were appointed at the
Congressional election held in California last
September and that deficiency OF 81 600 Is
among the items asked for to pay for their ser
vices. The feeling among the more influential
leaders on both sides is that there will be no
tariff legislation, and that while there may be
financial discussion, there will be no financial
legislation. The low bond bill, offered by Mr.
Wood, chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee, may lead to a lengthy discussion. The
fact that Secretary Sherman opposes the bill
it is thought will have great weight. Chairman
Woods friends say that syndicate is ready in
New York to take the 80 per cent. bonds at par
as soon as the desired legislation IS effected for
their issue. This, too, will undoubtedly have
great weight in determining The action OF the
House,
