and parliamentary managers OF the House.
make the important announcement to-day
that no legislation. outside OF tho pending
financial bill will be considered at the present
session OF Congress, and that as soon as that
question is disposed of an adjournment is to
be taken until tho regular meeting time OF
Congress In December This plan OF the
leaders OF the House Ia based mainly on the as
sumption that tho financial question will be
settled in the Senate within very
short time Indeed. Messrs. Wilson and Savers
think that the Senate will have disposed OF
the House bill within the FIRST two or three
weeks In September. SO that the final adjourn
ment can then be had. In arranging this pro-
Rramme the leaders do not contemplate post
poning the work OF tariff reform until the
regular meeting time OF Congress In Decem-
per' nut in'ehu W nave the heeeeoeiy '"o
committees appointed and the work Of franz
ing a tariff bill and preparing other proposed
legislation carried out during the recess In
October aud November. SO that when the regu-
lar December session Is called 1t will require
but q very few weeks to bring this proposed
legislation Into tho House for discussion and
enactment. It Is thought that Mr.. Wilson and
Mr.. Savers have made their announcement OF
the party programme after consultation with
President Cleveland. and that 1t WIN nave the
support, therefore. OF tho Administration.
Heretofore the general opinion among mem.
be prolonged to such an extent that recess
between sessions would hardly be practicable.
