Chinese bill TO morrow, as he had antici-
pated, but will do so very shortly. He will
have conference with Speaker Carlisle on

Congress this Week.
WASHINGTON, April 4th.-The business
Of the Senate is substantially in the same
condition as at the beginning of last week
with the difference that a vote upon the
bill TO increase the army is expected or
hoped for, tomorrow or Tuesday. The
bill to admit the Territory of Washington
will next be disposed of, 10 be succeeded by
the interstate commerce, ana that by the
bankruptcy bill. 1t is probable that the
Indian appropriation bill, and possibly the
pension appropriation bill. will be reported
from the Committee on appropriations, be-
fore the end of the week. Only these two
of the annual appropriation bills have
reached the Senate, II fact which is COM
mented on. At the corresponding date of
the preceding long session. five of the an
nual appropriation bills had passed the
House. two had passed the Senate Com
mittee, and one had been sent 10 the Presi-
dent.
The free coinage bill is the special order
in the House for Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. On the last named dav it is
expected that a vote will be reached Its
consideration will encounter the opposi-
ton of the PostoffiCe Commission, which
will antagonize it with the Postoflice APP
preparation bill. This measure was shunted
off last week to secure free track for the
labor arbitration bill. An effort will be
| made tomorrow to pass the Mexican pen
sion bill under a suspension of the rules
and many members are down on the
Speakers list for recognition to offer mo-
tons to take up and pass bills for the
erection of public buildings. Attempts
will also be made tomorrow to have a dav
set apart for the consideration of the bank
ruptcy bill and the bill providing for a
new naval establishment.
