THE HOUSE PROGRAMME.

Liable to Be Tilt with tho Senate on the
Date of Adjournment.
WASHINGTON, April 1e.-After several
weeks devoted more or less steadily to the
tariff question, appropriation bills will now
have the right of way in the House for
some time to come. The appropriation
bills are now In an advanced condition for
this stage of long session OF Congress.
and if the programme outlined by the party
leaders for the next two or three weeks be
carried out, the question of early final ad-
journment Will then rest with the Senate.
The House. however. is pursuing a policy
of retrenchment in all branches of the gov
eminent expenditures, so that long. and
TO some extent, probably. acrimonious.
conferences between tho two branches of
Congress must follow action by the Senate
on appropriations before the bills can be
enacted into law.
Tomorrow Is District of Columbia day
under the rules. but it ID purposed to spend
q part of the day III action on the urgency
deficiency appropriation bill. and the Dis
trict will doubtless secure only portion of
the time. The Indian and District of CO.
lumbia appropriation bills. which have
passed the Senate. will be put I'D confer
ence during the week. The naval appro-
priation bill will be taken ND Tuesday, IN
less sOmesuDforseen emergency prevents. Its
consideration will occupy at least two days,
and may possibly run until almost, If not
quite, the close of the week. There will be
little discussion on the bill as q whole. but
the Republican minority. aided by some
Democrats who are opposed to the recon-
mendation of the majority of the naval
committee that only one new cruiser be
authorized, will make an earnest fight to
have the bill amended so as 10 authorize
the construction of two new battle ships,
and. perhaps some torpedo boats.
The sundry OWL appropriation bill will
follow the naval bill. and will probably &C.
cupy the rest of the week, if there be any
part of 1T left. Besides these bills there are
on the calendar the consular and diplomat
&c, and the river and harbor appropriation
bills, which in the following week will be
taken MP in the order named. Committees
are at work on the appropriation bills not
yet reported to the House, and before the
bills now on the calendar are acted upon,
most of the following bills will have been
reported to the House: The postoffice, ag-
rloultural. legislative. executive and ju-
dicial. Notifications and general deficiency
bills.
The Senate is to listen to several set
speeches this week. MIR. Chandler has
given notice of his intention to speak on q
subject of popular interest, viz, the cleo
tion of Senators by direct vote of the
people. 1t is also expected that during
the morning hours Of the present week adj
ditional speeches on the silver bill will be
delivered by Mr.. Teller and others.

Uses of Veneering.

Ii may not be generally known that
veneering gives greater strength TO articles

costly and artistic furniture Is
now veneered. Among the vAlu-
