CONGRESS THIS WEEK.

"District Day" In the House To-day
Special Orders in Both Houses-The
Ocean Mail Subsidy--Prcsident's We
toes.
AS usual at this time in the first session
Of Congress, the Senate finds itself far In
advance of the House Of Representatives in
the consideration Of business, so that 1t is
enabled to adjourn over Sunday from FRI
day, while the House resolves to meet at IL
o'clock every morning, instead OF 10 noon.
The new hour Of meeting goes into effect
to-day. The Senate will continue to meet
at noon and will not meet ON Saturdays, at
least for some time.
Hereafter the daily sessions of the House
Of Representatives will begin at IL o'clock.
The assignments of the week are as fol-
lows: To-day latter the call Of states) to
the committee on the District OF Columbia
for bills of local interest, the most i'm
portant of which Is that providing for
bridge across the Potomac; Tuesday to the
committee on private land claims; Thurs
day to the committee on agriculture, and
Saturday to the consideration of the Joint
resolution providing for commission to
inquire into Indian affairs. There are,
however, number Of important measures
not provided for, among them the inter-
state commerce, the electoral count, and
the land grant forfeiture bills, which were
made especial orders'' for dates long past,
whose supporters will contest the floor with
some of the committees named, while the
army and the diplomatic appropriation bills
are likely to be pressed aud cause further
Encouragement of the assignment. Again,
II is among the possibilities OF the week
that long discussion may arise upon the
subsidy amendment to The postoflice bill,
the Presidents message regarding private
pension bills, or the proposition to permit
the offering OF amendments to general pen
sion bills to provide In each for the taxation
to meet its own required expenditures.
The tariff debate Is not now expected to
begin this week.
The Senate has unanimously consented
TO devote to-day and tomorrow to the dis
cussiOn OF the interstate commerce bill and
TO vote upon the measure before adjourn
ment tom orrow. II Is the understanding
that the general pension bill shall next be
taken up, and that the bankruptcy bill, the
open session resolutions, the Chinese re-
striction bill, and the Pacific railroad debt
extension bill shall follow In their order.
IL is probable, however, that not more than
one or two of these measures will be dis
posed Of during this week. The approprla-
lions committee has the agricultural, the
pension, and the District OF Columbia ap.
preparation bills under consideration, and
It's subcommittee have made such progress
that one or more Of them may be brought
In speedily, II desired, but neiher is likely
to be reported or brought up for action
this week.

A bounty pecision.

Second Comptroller Maynard has rendered
an important decision under the additional
bounty act OF July 2S, 1866.
Tho decision is TO the effect that every
soldier who enlisted after April IA, 1881 for a
period of not less than two years, and was
honorably discharged after serving two years
for the purpose OF enabling him to accept u
commission, Is entitled TO the additional
bounty OF SO authorized by the thirteenth sec
ton of that act, provided he was not entitled
TO any greater bounty than 500 under the laws
existing at the date ofthe passage Of the act,
and provided his claim was filed In time.
The act of 1866 authorized the Secretary OF
War TO prescribe rules and regulations for the
payment Of the bounty therein provided for,
and, one Of the rules prescribed by that officer
reads as follows:
1.-THE provisions of the act exclude from its
benefits those discharged during enlistment
by way OF favor"
1t has hitherto been held that this rule pre-
cluded the payment of additional bounty TO n
soldier discharged for promotion. even though
he had served for q period exceeding two
years before being promoted. The comptroller
has decided that soldiers who were discharged
for promotion were not discharged by way OF
favor, within the meaning OF the rule, and
hence that a soldier who was discharged tor
promotion, after serving two years as an en-
listed man, is entitled TO $50 bounty under
said act, II al other conditions imposed by the
law are fulfilled.
This decision Is not applicable to any claims
for such additional bounty which were not
filed until after July /, 1887, the time for filing
such claims having expired by Limitation on
that day.

Rensons for IncreaaIne a Pension

The House on Saturday passed the bill to In
crease the pension Of Loren Burritt, of Penn.

standing the adverse report made upon the
case by the committee on Invalid pensions.

teen years had lain on his bed of suffering,
unable to move hand or foot or TO minister 70

Cured during this war.
Mr.. Matson, of Indiana, opposed the bill,
contending that there was q large number of
men on the pension rolls receiving $50 month
who were Just as helpless and in iust as suffer-
ing condition as Burritt.
Mr.. Bragg, Of Wisconsin, supported the bill
While he was opposed to the general disposi.
