THIS WEEK In CONGRESS.
THE MEMBERS OF BOTH HOUSES
GETTING TIRED.

An Adjournment from Thursday Until
Monday Therefore Probable = The
Session Certain to be Protracted
One-The Vote on the Election Bilf
May Not Occur Till Thursday.
WASHINGTON, June 29.-The Senate
debate on the tariff bill will probably not
begin until Monday of next week.
Appropriation bills will occupy the atten-
ton of the Senate the greater part of this
week
OF general business the bill for the admis-
sion of Idaho has the first place on the
calendar and will be taken up at the earliest
opportunity.
As Friday is the Fourth of July tn Q
Senate will probably adjourn from Thurs
day until Monday.
OUTLOOK OF THE HOUSE.
The House has its work well in hand, and
as the probability that this session of con-
gress will be unusually protracted has now
become practically certainty, there is a
strong desire on the part of the members
to take advantage of the Fourth of July
coming on Friday to secure a vacation Of a
few days during the heated term.
The speaker himself favors adjourn
ing over until Monday. The House,
therefore, has one legislative day
only during the coming week at its disposal,
the first three days under the rule being set
apart for further consideration of the
federal election bill.
The rules committee has considered what
1t shall do with this one day, Thursday, but
has not yet definitely decided what measure
shall get the benefit of it.
THE BANKRUPTCY BILL.
The strongest probability is that the COM
mittee will report a rule setting apart day
for the disposal Of the Torrey bankruptcy
bill, but there are other measures being
pressed for early action. and the friends Of
some one or more of them may induce
the committee to defer consideration of
the Torrey bill and give the day to
them. There is also always the possibility
of hitch in congressional programmes,
and an unexpected debate on some appro-
priation bill, conference report, or some
other at present unknown obstacle may
delay the final vote on the election bill until
Thursday, instead of Wednesday.

Robert G. Humber may run for the legisla-
ture. Last night thirty-two employees of
the state lunatic asylum went to the home
Of Col. Humber on Hancock street and
gave him a nice serenade, and expressed to
him how kindly they felt toward the recent
steward of the asylum. Col. Humber was
very kind to the employees, and they GER
tainly appreciate his kindness Rumor has
it that Col Humber will be announced for
the legislature at an early date, and II such
should be the case politics will no longer be
quiet in Baldwin. With Col Humber
against Hon. Robert Whitfield there will
have to be some hard work done by the one
who is elected.

In superintendent Porter's place

The departure Of superintendent OF
the Census Porter for Europe last SAT.
urday gave rise 10 a question as to who
should act as Superintendent during his
absence, as there is no Assistant Super.
intenfent, and no provision Is made by
law for the absence Of the head Of the
bureau Secretary Noble. however
found a statute applying 10 all branches
OF the Government service, by which
the chief clerk can perform the duties
Of the absent Superintendent. Chief
Clerk Albert f. Childs will, therefore,
be designated 20 act as Superintendent
Of the Census Secretary Noble ex-
presses himself as well satisfied with the
present working Of the Census Bureau,
despite an criticism.
