COMING WEEK IN ooNGRRss.

COMING WEEK IN CONGRESS. Possibility of she TariG BiIi Heing
 Taken Up in she senase-Plans oft the
 House.
 .wAsnINGroN, July 1S-Although just be- fore adjournment yesterday the senate for mally took up the tariff bill and thus made 1t the preferred business for tomorrow it will forthwith be informally laid aside, for, according to present indications of the majority, while the senate takes up and con- siders the sundry civil appropriation bill and probably appropriation bills, with the possible intervention of day for the con- sideration of routine business on the oAlen- dar, the way is expected to be then clear for the beginning of the debate on the tariff bill. The execution of the latter part of this pro- gram, however, is somewhat conditioned upon the action of the republican caucus, which is expected to be held Monday night, as some senators desire to provide for action upon other matters-notably the river and hsrbor bill, and even the house election bill- | in advance of entering upon the tariff debate. | Another effort is to be made in the house of representatives this week to secure the pass age of the original package and the bank ruptoy bills under the operations of special rule as soon as the pending land grant for feiture bill is out of the way. To-morrew uuder the regular order is District of Col- nmbia day in the house. The election oom- mittee is still waiting the pleasure of the committee on rules as to when 1t shall call
 up the Virginia contested case of Langston
 vs. Venable and the case of Miller vs. Elliott
 that they will both be disposed of in tn,
 event that the week is not entirely consumed in the consideration of the measures abov 1 | mentioned.

lNA sTATE OF ERUPTION.

Mount BogestoH in Alaska Emitting
 steam and smoke and Lava-The Pil-
 lar of Flre Seen at Night FroA .
 Great Distance.
 PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, July l3.-News brought to-day by officers and passengers on the steamer Arago from Alaska confirms the report of Mount Bogoston being in state of activity. About two months ago there was a violent eruption on all the islands in tho Aleutian group, and soon after Bogostoff, which is on Ounmark Island, began emitting steam and smoke and lava. BogostoHa has been inactive since 1796, when the island upon which 1t is situated is said to have risen from 1t, and although always marked on charts as extinct, several times in the year smoke and steam have been seen issuing from the cra- ter. From the original height of 1,169 | feet the volcano has dropped to 889 feet | above the sea level. Professor Elliott of the | Smithsopian institution has visited the island
 upon which the volcano is situated and has
 made important scientific investigation The
 flames of the fire, thousasds of feet in height, can be seen at night issuing from ths
 mountain. Mount Sheldon on Onalga, 5,05s feet high, ,is emitting steam and smoke and 1 is thought will soon be in state of eruption This mountain can be seen at seq for nearl. 100 miles and will be of great good to navi I Qation if it. should become active as th
 pillar of fire can be seen for great dis lance.

Must Keen Her Babv at Homo.

An italian woman named Pauline Cberalli,
whose husband is an organ grinder, was at
the corner of 18th and F streets Saturday
afternoon begging. She had in her arms an
infant nearly year old. A lady noticed the
infants condition and at her request q physi-
clan was asked to examine the child. He did
80 and expressed the belief that a drug had been
used to keep the babe asleep. Policeman Heller
arrested the woman on acharge Of vagrancy and
her husband appeared TO leave collateral for
her. He had $40 in pennies. When the case
was heard in the Police Court this morning
Judge Miller thought that the hot sun had
affected the child and took the woman's per-
sonal bonds, telling her that il she was found
ON the street with the child again she would
have to 20 70 the work house. She promised
10 keep the child at home hereafter.
