WEEK IN CONGRESS.

General Appropriation Bills in the Senate-The Silver Measure Will Not be Taken Up Right Away-Doings in the House-The Talk of Adjourn. ment.
 WASHINGTON, June 13.-The business of
 the senate during the coming week will be governed to great extent by, and will be dependent upon, the extent to which the republican senators who have focked in such large numbers to Minneapolis will have returned to Washington and have again taken their seats in the chamber. In any case, however, progress may be made on general appropriation bills-two of which, the legislative and the agricultural, were received from the house last Thurs day and referred to the committee on ap- propriations (where the postofice sppro- priation bill is pending), and several con- ference reports will probably be presented to the senate and agreed to during the week.
 The silver bill will not be taken up for action until after things political shall have gone back into their normal condi- tion (subsequent to the democratic con- vention), but speeches may be expected upon it and on the currency question: during almost any day session. Mir. Morgan is ready to take the floor upon the silver question whenever he sees an op- portunity of extracting the views of certain senators; and MT. Peffer has given notice of his intention to address the senate tomorrow on his peculiar bill ''to increase the currency and provide for it's circulation, to reduce the rates of interest on nI kN oh h,,,o of finally, MT. Call proposes next Wednesday to pay his respects to certain railroad companies which show, as he thinks, too much interest in the question of who shall be elected to the senate.
 In the house the truce which was de- clared on party measures will expire early in the week, when the republicans shall have returned from their convention, and there is promise of busy week, with the tariff again the leading issue.
 At this time it is impossible to state the order in which the tariff bills will be taken up, but probabilities are that the tin plate will be first if MT. Snively returns to Washington from Indiana in season as is expected. The silver-lead-ore bill and the bill to limit the value of clothing and per sonal effects that may be brought into the United States by tourists are also to re- ceive speedy consideration. AS there has already been 8 free expression of opin- ion on the general subject of tariff revision it is believed that the debate on the first of the measures called up will be broad enough to cover the others.
 A strong disposition is apparent to hasten the hour of final adjournment. All of the regular annual appropriation bills have been passed originally by the house except the Notifications bill and the gen. eral deficiency bill. The last named will be reported to the house early in the week, and both will receive speedy treatment Some time is also to be given to the con- siderstion of conference reports, and it is expected that the District of Columbia, the river and harbor, the military acade- my, and possibly the army appropriation bills will be sent to the president for his approval during the week. This is an ex- tensive program, but the house mana | gers are extremely desirous to advance the | appropriation bills as much as possible be- fore the exodus of the democratic members towards Chicago begins at the latter end of the week, and they will use every effort to accomplish their point.
