The Work Of Congress.

WASHINGTON, March 4-Of the work of
the Fifty-first Congress three measures,
any of which in intrinsic importance and
popular interest would be sufficient for a
national issue, stand forth pre- eminent
among all others. The first is the Nc
Kinley tariffsbill, which became law; the
second, the silver bill, on which at the first
session compromise was effected, based
on the monthly purchase of $500, 900 ounces
Of silver, which in turn was followed by
more radical measures that failed of pass
ing; and third, the federal election pill,
which, after protracted struggle, failed
in the Senate to reach decisive vote.
Radical innovations in the rules of the
House added interest to its proceedings,
and the determined but frultless efforts to
adopt the most vital of these innovations,
formed part OF the history of the latter
part OF this session of the Senate. Even in
its mortuary record this Congress was re-
markable, the call of death having sum
moned no fewer than twelve of its Repre-
sentatives and three of its Senators.
The total appropriation for this Congress
will probably reach billion of dollars.
During the Fiftiath Congress 161 bills
were vetoed and during the Fifty-first
Congress fourteen. Among the bills which
became law are these: The copyright bill
private land court bill customs administra-
tive bill; general land forfeiture bill; bill to
relieve the supreme court by the establish
ment OF an intermediate court of appeal
the United States Judges salaries bill; the
Worlds fair bill; the Wyoming and Idaho
admission bills; the anti lottery and anti

The Inter state railway commission met

William N. Shank, of Ptttsburg, formally

he will have general charge of the survey
ing work. Other civil engineers will be Sc
lected to assist him and he is also promised
the CO. operation of local engineers in each
of the countries through which the pro

surveying parties, including the military

interference with private business enter
prise, etc.
