lii.

wAsnuNaroN, ID. g., Oct s.-The
momentuus even, In the Senate this
week will be the attempt to secure
continuous session Of that body. THAI
the attempt will produce results can
hardly DO DOUBTED by any one familiar
with the situation.
The general desire, as we'll as belief,
In tho chamber, Is that the present
week will bring y solution OF TING
problem. The opinion expressed Is
that there will be n compromise Of some
character agreed to anu put through
The proposition to simply extend the
Snern AZ law for definite period,
with reduced monthly purchases,
seems b. be taking shape a. tho most
likely Of the various propositions to re-
ceive approval. The proposition TO IN
olude bond purchases In also receiving
attention, aud present indications are
that while many Democrats may not
agree TO such proposition, II may be
nut through with the assistance of the
Republicans,
The senators from the sllver.proiuc.
ing states are constantly consulted aud
advised with Ms 10 the terms Of
tho agreement, but they VIII
not DO allowed TO dictate In
the matter Of compromise. What
the silver men would Ike best
next 10 free coinage would be cjn-
tinuatlon OF the present bill. IL would
DO a triumph and not n COMPROMISE. AZ
the night session experiment should
not bring about tho passage OF tho
bill, there Ia a possibility that recess
resolution would secure majority In
ita support.
The elections bill will possibly reach
the Senate early Ia the week, tut there
will likely be no Immediate effort TO
take IL up. This important matter will
occupy the attention OF tho House this
week. Tuesday, according 20 the
terms OF the special order, the Tucker
It'll will 70 to n vote. Although the
Democrats arc united In the demand
for the repeal Of the laws permitting
federal supervision at the polls, some
Northern Democrats believe the
Tucker bill, which blois out all the
laws on the statute books relating TO
federal supervision, goes too far. After
the disposal OF the election bill the bill
from the banking and currency com
mittee will again come up.
Thursday, II the banking bill IA dis
posed Of, the McCreAry substitute for
the Everett bill 10 amend the Geafy
exclusion act 90 as TO extend the time
for the registration Of the Chinese will
come up and he voted on after tive
days. The bill will be- bitterly opposed
by some Of the Pacific slope memhefs,
especially Geafy, who does not like
lie provlsions, and who believes the
bill only temporizes with the situation.
In whatever shape the silver bill
might pass the Senate, everything else
would be laid aside In the House to
act upon II.
Work on the tArlfi bill by the Demo,
cratic members OF the ways aud
means committee continues on the line
Oi making the raising Of revenue tn,
object Of the bill aud protection ia,

Several committees OF the House
viii bo busy during tho week. The
committee ON territories will try hul
get a quorum together TO consider
several bills for the admission OF Utah
Arizona, New Mexico anu Oklahoma
There has been more pressure for ia,
Utah bill than the others, and II vii
