THE PENSION BILL PASSED.

IMPORTANT MEASURES AWAITING ACTION BY CON-
GREss-LTTrE PROBABILITY THAT THEY WILL
BE REACHED.
lBV TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSE1
WASHINGTON, May 1S-The House Of Represent
atives passed the Pension Deficiency bill to-day,
but no movement was made looking to the payment
of the United States marshals nor to providing for
the lighting of public buildings.
Among other important items of business which
Congress has thus far neglected, and is likely to
neglect altogether, are tho Funding bill. which
Secretary Sherman asked the House to pass last
December, the bill to reduce the duty on wood
pulp and other paper stock the Ute bill. nearly all
the contested election in the House, and many
other measures.
If Congress would stop wasting its time and go
to work on tho really important business before it,
very much might be accomplished in the next few
wceks but there is very littlo prospect that the
time will DC any proftablv spent IN the future
than in the past the wisest course will be for Con-
grcss to adjourn soon possible, and thus put
itself beyond the temptation to do mischief
