WASHINGTON, July 4.-In the universal
anxiety to get to the day of adjournment
there will be such rush of work during the
remainder of the session of Congress that it
will be almost impossible to forecast the
proceedings. It is understood that the
House Committee on Ways and Means will
shortly report a resol ution to adjourn on
Thursday, the 18th, and that adjournment
will be made not later than sometime during
the early part of the following week, Mon
day, the 10 h, being most frequently men
toned as the date in the event the Senate ex-
tends the time from the 18th. With only
twelve or fifteen days remaining the changes
in the order of business will be frequent, alb
rupt and unexpected, and it will be impossi-
BILE henceforth to follow programme cover
ing more than forty-eight hours. The House
refused to adjourn over Monday and will
therefore be in session on the legal holiday.
Tomorrow is individual suspension day, but
it is not likely that it will prevail as the gen
eral deficiency bill is pending and only half
finished. Following this measure will come
the Notifications bill. AS this will contain
provisions only for keeping up the works
and no new legislation it will be passed with
little debate. A flood of business is On the

land forfeiture, the alien landlord, the
one arm and one leg pension and the inter

the joint resolution of Mr. Morrison provid-
ing for the extinguishing of the public debt,
with all the surplus over one hundred million
dollars. On Friday morning the Committee
on Invalid Pensions will call up the vetoed
private pension bill it has selected as a test of
the strength of the Presidents veto. 1t is ex-
pected to occupy the day and provoke lively
debate. The committee on order of business
has decided to consider naval reconstruc
ton bill which will place $1,000 900 in the
hands of the Secretary of the Navy to be
expended at his discretion to rebuild the
navy. There will be sessions of the House
nearly every night during the week.
When the Senate meets on Tuesday the
consideration of the river and harbor bill
will be resumed. The naval appropriation
and oleomargarine bills will follow this mea-
sure and probably occupy the week. By the
middle of the week all of the unfinished
appropriation bills will be with the Senate

out of the way. One or two days of the
week are to be devoted to the consideration
of executive business. There is little on
the calendar now but nominations already re-
ported and it will take up SO much
time to consider that special ex-
ecutive sessions must be held for
that purpose. One of the first cases to
be disposed of is that of Solicitor General
Goode and that is likely to prove stumbling
block because the Judiciary committee fears
there are Republicans enough pledged to
confirm him. Messrs. Van Wyck and Rid |
dleberger are counted for him and the inten
tions of Republicans are suspected.
