THE HOUSE DEADLOCK
Impossible to Predict When It
 Will Be Broken.
PROPOSALS TO COMPROMISE MADE.


 Proposition Not Considered Feasible. \
 WASHINGTON, July 29-It is impossible \ to predict how long the deadlock in the \ House will last. The opponents of the Fair appropriation have made overtures of a compromise. One proposition is that if a loan will be accepted it will be voted \ speedily and the House can then adjourn another is to the effect that if the advo- cates of the appropriation will yield, di- rect vote on it can be assured on the sec ond Tuesday in December.
 Those in favor of the appropriation na- tVrally refuse any offers of 8 compromise and believe they have the battle won. It now appears to be simply a question of physical endurance.
 The proceedings in the House yesterday were intensely stupid and filibustering motions on the Worlds Fair appropria- tion prevailed all day. The only motion now in order, until the deadlock is broken, is for adjournment and a call of the House.
 The proposition credited to Judge Hol- man, if the deadlock on the Worlds Fair appropriation continues, to bring in resolution extending for another year the appropriations made in the Sundry Civil bill for 1991-2, will not avoid the difficult ty. So many new measures have been ar ranged for since that bill was passed that a continuation of it's terms would be scarcely less than disastrous than a failure to pass the pending bill. Even if the Sen ate were disposed to accept that solution of the difficulty and agree to adjourn, it is said the President would feel compelled to issue a proclamation reconvening Con gress to provide for carrying on the busi- ness that such step would put stop to-
 When the House was called to order MT. Wheeler Dem. Ala.) rose to ques- tion of personal privilege, stating that the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Watson) had attacked him (Mr. Wheeler) Wednesday, The Speaker ruled him out of order, and was sustained by an appeal to the ouse.
 NIT. McMillin called up the resolution from the committee on Ways and Means for final adjournment on July 4th and submitted an amendment substituting July Both for the adjournment
 Mr. Hatch (Dem. Mol said he would op- pose fixing any day for final adjournment until the Senate had fully considered the anti option bill.
 MT. McMillin said there was no desire on the part of the committee to delay the consideration of the anti-option or any other bill. He thought Congress should get away as soon as possible, and he hoped the members would vote for the resolution.
 MT. Outhwaite, (Dem., of Ohio) said that there was an appropriation bill pend ing, containing an obnoxious amendment approprating $5,O0O,0OO for the Worlds Fair. It had been said that the Sundry Civil bill would be defeated if the appro- priation was not made. He had no sym pathy with that sort of talk, but as it was manifestly impossible to get through Inv Satlr6.,v ha bpna6 the resolution would be amended and August 1 inserted as the date.
 MT. Enloe, of Tennessee, thought Con gress should not adjourn without first dis posing of the resolution respecting the dismissal of Commissioner Raum.
 Mir. Cummings, of New York, moved to make the date Monday, August 1.
 Mir. McMillan then demanded the pre- vious question. Ordered. Ayes, 153; Nays, 19. The vote on the motion of Mir. Cummings resulted ayes, 55; nays, no.
 MT. Outhwaite, pursuing his tilibuster- ing tactics of Wednesday, demanded the yeas and nays. Refused.
 Mr. Wheeler moved to take a recess until o'clock. Lost. Ayes, g.; nays, 176.
 Mr Wheeler then demanded tellers, but voted alone. The entire House remained in their seats. Mr. Wheeler then called lOI UIS yeas t1Ifu 4JOoo.
 He then moved a short recess until 40, but being appealed to by Mir McMillan to cease his filibustering he consented, and a vote was then taken on the resolution for adjournment Saturday, which resulted 121 to 51 Mr Hatch Dem. Mo- de- manded the yeas and nays. Refused, and the resolution was agreed to. The regular order of business was then taken up, being Mr. Bingham's motion to lay on the table the motion of Mr. Hol- man to reconsider the vote of Wednesday by which the House decided to recede from | it's disagreement to the Senate amendment on the Worlds Fair.
 MT. Bingham moved to lay Mir. Hol- mans motion on the table. Mr. Outhwaite moved to adjourn, and pending this to adjourn until Friday. Mr. Cummings moved to substitute ! Monday. The yeas and nays were de \ manded on the latter motion.
