WASHINGTON, March l5.-Senstor In-
gals will on Saturday night give to the
Press association an open letter on the
subject Of his reference to Gen. Hancock
In his recent speech. The communica-
ton will be a column in length, but pre-
cisely how much the senator will deal
with the subject is something Of puzzle
to people on the outside.
The condition Of the regular appropria-
ton bills for thissession is somewhat back
ward as compared with previous years.
There have been reported and are now ON
the calendar, the diplomatic and consular,
the military academy and the pensions ap-
preparation bills.
The Indian bill has been prepared, and
will be reported tomorrow. IL appropri-
atcs S5, l02, ,2b3 for the expenses Of the In
dian department, as against S1,2SS,s97,
which was the amount Of the bill passed
last year, or about Sl0O, 900 less.
The army appropriation bill has been
drafted by the clerk Of the committee ON
military affairs, but ON account Of the ab-
sonce oil Chairman Townshend, II has not as
vet been considercd by the committee.
u
day next, when the bill will be at onco
taken up and there seems 10 be no reason
why II may not be reported 10 the House
within another week. II IL nearly s., 2,000,-
600 larger than that passed last year, and
provides for an appropriation OF S25, ,364,-
33i. The naval appropriation bill has not
| yet been considered, even by sub-com-
mittcc, and II will bc several weeks before
Il can bo reported.
The rivers and harbors bil will be re-
ported between tho 10th and 25th OF this
month The committee IL now engaged
| in a revision of the completed bill, which
Il is expected will appropriate about sl4,-
OOO. 900.
The agricultural appropriation bill IL
| still In the hands Of subcommittee, its
consideration having been delayed by tho
"adulterated lard" hearings. which havo
engaged the attention of tho agricultural
committee Tor the past two weeks. Chair
man Hatch, however, expects 10 be able
IN report II toward the end OF the month.
| The pon,ofiicc appropriation bill "a in
much thc same condition, the delay being
caused by lack Of statistics from the post
ofiice department.
The legislative, executive and judicial,
the nndry civil aud the District OF Colum-
1
priations committee. Tho last OF the
three Is In the hands Of subcommittee
at present hut II is expected 10 he COM
plcted Ia q iow days. Work on the other
two IL progressing slowly, and Il may be
the lsi OF April before they are ready for
