Bills That VIII Occupy the Atteatioa
of the House aud Senate.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-In the House o.
Representatives tomorrow is set apart for
District OF Columbia business. The Dis
trict Committee, however, will have moth
ing Of general interest to bring for ward.
should the minor matters it will pre:ent
be disposed Of early in the day, the discus
son of the bonded whisky bill will
be continued. Ire friends of this
measure expect to reach vote Tuesday.
On the evening Of thai day the Democratic
caucus on the tariff question will be held.
The Indian and pension appropriation
bills have been reported by the Appropria.
tiCn Committee, and either of them may
be- taken up in the House after Tue;day.
Piyilege1 4 matters having occu pied greater
part of the present session in the House,
the advocates OF legislation on special
subjects express themselves apprehensiYe
that the remainder Of the session
will be occupied in the same manner in the
cor sideration OF the appropriation bills
and revenue measures. Tne Appropriation
Committee has q number Of bills In an ad-
vance stage of preparation which can be
repCrtt on short noy:cs. The sunCry civil
and legislative, executive and judicial ap-
propriatiUn bills, the two most import.
ant mea ure', are almost compl It'd
In the Senate
BlaiG's educational bill is unfinished
business in the Seaa.e and neither its
friends nor its opponents are willing to
make predictions as to iGs fate or the time
which will be required to dispose OF it.
Senator Blair is still hopeful it will pass.
An attempt to set it aside for consideration
of the pleuro pneumonia bill aud another
to send it back TO the committee for revi-
sion, which If successful, will be equiva-
lent to its defeat for the pres
ent session will probably be made on
Monday, or, if the bill be not earlier dis
posed Of, on Tuesday. There seems TO be
a majority in favor OF some kind OF ma
tional educational bill aud it is among the
possibilities that the friends of the Blair
bill may accept an amendment smoothing
away the features which are objectional TO
some Senators and thus secure the passage
of q measure whlcn will at least recognize
IS a general principle that the government
has duty 10 perform in con.
nection with the education OF
freeomen, hoping to accomplish
more in q future Congress IL the fruits Of
the first measure be satisEactOry.
The bankruptcy bill the pleuro-pneu-
mouia bill, and the bill to regulate the
Practice in patent suits still stand as special
or, ers on the calendar, and will require
more time for consideration than that
portion of the week remaining after the
educational bill has been disposed OF.
The Appropriation Committee has under
consideration the naval and postotfice
appropriation bills, but is not thought
probable either will be reported in ums
for action by the Senate this week.
