ORA WING TO A CLOSE.
Final Adjournment of Congress Expect
ed the Last Of this Week or the First
of Next.

WAsHIsGTos, jay 20.
The final adjournment Of Congress NAV
possibly take place the last of the week but
concurrence of the best opinions on the sub
Ject leads to the belief that il i'll be- postponsd
till Mondsv or Tuesday of next week. These
opinions are, however, usually expressed
with reservation looking to the possibility
of important vetoes. All the appropriation
bills. except the general deficiency and forti-
ficstion bill, have passed both houses and TO
these two the Senate will devote the earliest
attention. The river and harbor and legisla-
tive bills still linger in conference and the
sundry civil bill will doubtless be made the
subJe of conference Tomorrow. All the
other appropriation bills have gone to the
President Under the special privilege con-
ferred by the rules The public lands commit
tee will this week demand action on the land
grant forfeiture bills, while the opponents of
this measure will join hands with the friends
of the Interstate commerce bill IN an attempt
to defeat this purpose by raising the question
of consideration. The greatest element of
uncertainty involving the question of final
adjournment is the action Of the Senate on
the amendments which are to be proposed to
the forfeiture bill, probably increasing the
amount appropriated by the measure from
less than 81 ,000,0 900 to more than 8,OOO,-
900. The deficiency appropriation bill is uu-
hnished business in the Senate and its con-
slderation is now expected to consume much
time. 1t is intended to devote one, and pos
sibly two days, to the calendar of nomina-
tions in secret session after the appropra-
ton bills are passed.

CROP REPORT.
What the Springfield Republican Will
Say About Western New England Crops
in Mondays Issue.
SPRINGFIRLp, Mass. July 25.

SPRINGFIRLp, Mass, July 25.
The republican will present tomorrow
morning in its annual survey of crops grown
in western New England: Reports from the
farming districts in Havsden. Hampshire,
Franklin, Berkshire and Worcester counties,
and in southern Vermont and New Hamp-
shire and northern Connecticut, show that
crops already harvested is unusually good.
Tobacco growing is fast disappea-in in Con-
necticut and Housatopic valleys Corn has
had hard luck all through the section. 1t is
represented as starting poorly in most cases,
being replanted IN many instances and suffer
ing from an earv June drouth. Crops will
be far from eqnalling the extra yield of last
year. Early potatoes are not very success
full but there is a fair prospect for late eare-
ties The rye crop is one most promising
and is being harvested in many localities
As u'ual apple trees are tickle. There was
generally profuse bossoming and in many
spots the yield of fruit will be as large as
last year, but in others early fruit and crops
will be only an average one.
