: WASHINGTON, D. G., March ,23.-The
committee authorized to be appointed at
the recent conference Of Republican Sen
ators, has decided upon an order Of bus
iness for the Senate that will probably
be executed in accordance. with its rec:
concentrations. The committee consists
OF Messrs. Edmunds, Sherman, Allison,
Platt, Teller, Cullom and Dolph. In ac-
cordance with their recommendations,
the consideration OF the Sherman anti
trust bill will be resumed tomorrow.
The author Of the measure hopes to
reach vote before adjournment, but
that is hardly probable. In order to
econom!za time in debate, as we'll as to
prevent the continued obstruction Of
business by permitting bill to hold its
place at the head Of the calendar in
definitely, it is proposed by the commit
tee on order OF business that bill once
taken up fot discussion shall be consid-
cred without unnecessary interruption
or delay until it shall have been dis
posed Of. ~ n,
" The dependent pension bill is second
on the list and will be called up, it is
expected, Tuesday or Wednesday. The
bill on the calendar is identical in its
provisions with the one vetoed by Pres.
ident Cleveland. An effort will be made
to substitute for it what is known as tho
Morrill, bill. This provides for disabil-
ity pensions and service pension to all
soldiers who have reached the age OF G2
years. Later in tho week the admins.
tration customs bill, reported laHt week
from the Committee on Finance, will
be taken up and this, members OF the
committee believe, will be as much as
the Senate can dispose Of in one week.
After these measures, the NJ ones silver
bill and the land grant forfeiture bill
will follow. & s:.S ;!.,;'sf.!g!Sa.ii 1:' z.,l%i

reported blythe Committee on the: Dis.
trict Of Columbia, which embrace none
Of general interest, except that propos-
ing the establishment OF a National park
on Rock Creek The Worlds airabill
will be taken up, Tuesday,, probably
under the iron-clad. order requiring
final action upon that day. T lively de-
bate is certain to ensue as some Of the
New: < ork and st.. Louis, people fancy
they see in tho proposition to postpone
the tair until 1893 an Opportunity to to;
consider the action OF, the ! House in
selecting Chicago as the slte. The re,
mainder of the week will probably be
devoted 10. the discussion oI the bills to
admit the Territories ofWyoming and
Idaho TO statehood. Tho long deferred
