WAsHINGToN. Jan. Senators and
Representatives who go homo during
tho holiday recess rarely hasten their
return TO the Capital, so there is likely
to be small attendance in both Houses
to- morrow wren Congress meets again.
and the seats will probably not be filled
before next week. In the Senate there
are indications OF a struggle for place
between tho nti.options bill, tho bill
for tho repeal OF the purchase OF silver
act, and quarantine and immigration
suspension bills. Tho irst business in
crdor will ba tho McGarrahan bill.
which comes up, by unanimous consent,
in the morning hour. Senator Wilson.
OF Iowa, and others have speeches to do
liver on this subject, and they protniso
to occupy the morning hours during tho
week, greatly 10 the concern of the
friends of the Great Claimant" who
realize that the bill cannot long be kent
in its privileged condition to the cxclu-
sion Of other business.
After tho morning hour to morrow
the anti-options bill will probably be-
taken up Tor further debate. Mr.. Nc
Pherson, before recess, gave notice that
he would call UP his resolution to re-
peal the Sherman silver act promptly
on the assembling of Congress, and ne
can at least succeed in delivering a
speech on the subject. More Than that
can hardly De expected ut rhis timo in
view OF the reluctance OF Republican
Senators to move in tho matter until a
settled limo of policy is auopscd 81 tho
caucns soon 10 he held. Tbs imn!gra-
ton CON mittc2 is extremely anxious to
lake somc action on quarantine and
suspension bills, and If Wa.hburna docs
not succeed in pushing his anti options
bill to vote by Friday, the indie ATOMS
are that they will make determined
elforS to displaco that measure as un
finished business. In this attcmpt they
will have tho support OF some Senators
who foar cholera, and others VINO fear
the anti options bill, or who want to ret
on With other business.
The only business of importance
likely to be transacted this week in tho
House is the passage of the fertilization
appropriation BILL which is in charge of
breckenridge, of kentucky. There is
but little chance that quorum will be
present tomorrow, and the appropria.
ton bill will not be called up until
Thursday. The appropriat ton commit
tee expect that there will be little, If
any, general debate upon it, and that it
will pass during tho day.
Chairman Martin. Of tho invalid pan
sions committee, will take the earliest
opportunity to call up tho private pen.
sions bills, which arc now on the oalen-
dar OF unfinished business, but he will
not do so until he is convinced that
there Is quorum present to vote upon
them. Altogether. the remainder OF tho
week promises to be uneventful in Con-
greSS.

struggle. He said, however, that he
never had any intention OF becoming o

fused permission to his friends to use
his name in caucus.
