COMING WEEK IN CONGRESS.

look I'm the House.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.-The nature of
the senate's proceedings this week will be
determined by the attendance. If no
quorum is present, there will probably be
adjournments from day to day. If there
is quorum-counting the senators on
both sides of the chamber-the debate on
the election bill will continue, and one of
the features of the discussion will be q
speech by Senator Hoar, the sponsor of
the bill in the senate. Should there be Q
quorum of republican senator's during the
something hardly probable
may be expected Transformation of the
light skirmishing, which has been in pro-
gress for month into heavy engage
ment of the political forces, for it is the
intention to take up the new cloture rule
introduced by Senator Aldrich as soon as a
safe republican majority can be assured.
1t is not expected that any business will
be transacted in the house during the
coming week. There is possibility, how
ever, of a quorum being in attendance
either Friday or Saturday, and should this
happen the appropriations committee is
prepared to call up one of the regular an
nual APPROXIMATION bills

Able to Compete with Germany.

BERLIN, Dec. 28.-An expert who has
returned here from Pennsylvania declares
that America is able to compete with Ger
many on cheap articles, and not on first
or second rate goods, owing to the high
wages and the scarcity of good hemp and
the high price of wool. It is therefore
doubtful if the few American tariff law
will greatly injure German exports.
