Congress to Adjourn WiLh-ut Day
 Next Monday.


 WASHINGTON, July 25.-Congress will un- doubtedly adjourn at 12 o'clock noon on Monday, August 3. The leaders of both houses have so assured representatives of the United Press and the condition of unfinished business makes it easy in consideration of the general anxiety. Only four appropria- tion bills besides the river and harbor bill remain unfinished. The sundry civil bill has passed the Senate and the general deficiency bill is peuding in the Senate; the legislative, executive and judicial are in conference and the Notifications is in the committee. The river and harbor bill is also in conference. Tomorrow the House expects to receive the sundry civil bill and to get it into conference early. There may be some debate on 1t ow- ing to Senate amendments, although efforts will be bent henceforth by either house to correct the work of the other by conference instead of rambling debate. Mr. Req gan intends to embrace every opportuni- ty to call up his inter State commerce bill and the probabilities that 1t will occupy much of the time when there is not an appropriation bill up. Conference re- ports will be made daily in both houses and will create more or less debate. Parliament ary tactics will be resorted to for the purpose of wasting time. There seems to be de- termination by a majority made up from both sides that nothing but appropriation bills shall be considered and flibustering shall be the order at any time. The Senate will work upon the appropriation bills, the naval reconstruction, the Morrison surplus resolution and will have secret ses- sions on two or more days. Instead of fiji clustering or adjourning over from day to day or from hour to hour the Senate Will occupy the spare moments in secret sesslons | It is intended that all of the appropriation l bills shall reach the President by Saturday and the session will continue through next Sunday as most of the members have ar ranged their departure on the basis of an 1 adjournment on Monday, the 2d.

EDITOR CUTTING's ARREST. Mexican Troops swsEgeTtng About with An Alleged Anxiety TO Efxht

EL PAso, Texns, July 26.-rhs excitement
 it is understood that the two governments
 have decided to conduct all further negotia
 tions in secret and SO Consul Brigham will
 give no information to-day. Mexican troops
 continue to arrive at Paso del Norte and the
 place has become a regular garrison town.
 The activity of the Mexicans is mark ed con-
 trast to the calmnesss which characterizes
 the Americans. The Mexican soldiers stalk
 about the old city boosting and are apparently impatient for fight with their Ameican en- emies. The Americans look on quietly. A carload of troops from Chihuahua was smuggled in yesterday morning at daylight and more expected. Still it may be depended upon that the news of any ex- traordinary manoeuvre will at once be con- veyed to the United States government. The circumstances of the arrest yesterday of Me dina, who caused Cuttings arrest, are vari- ously told. It was said he not placed under arrest, but hidden in an obscure build ing. The fact is that after he made the disturbance in Consul Brigham's and insulted the consul's clerk he was taken charge of by officers. He fought des- perately for some distance, finally a uIsCr1cI JouSe appeareu anu ulsA lsslnS tHo officers took charge of Medina, who went quietly with him to the jail. There he re- mained during the night and in the morning he was sentenced to pay a fine. The latest news is that last night a justice summoned Cutting before him and said the case had sumed such importance that it had been de- to transfer it to the first district court where sentence would be pronounced at some future day. Consul Brigham en- deavored to have a day appointed for the trial, but he was unsuccessful. Evidently Mexico is determined to hold and punish Cutting and this news together with the re- port that 8 trainload of troops including battery of artillery is en route hither causes matters to assume grave aspect.
