 Washington, Aug. 6.-No program has been arranged for this week in the house. MT.

Mr. Paynter and Mir. Brown. the latter chairman of the committee, and both members, are booked for speeches in favor of Settle. Committees which have not already had an opportunity to present bills will doubtless be given a day in turn for that purpose, but the assignments will be made from day to day.
 Conference reports on the appropYia-. tion bills yet remaining undisposed of and on the tariff bill will. of course, have the right of way at all times. The appropriation bills are the sundry civil, Inian, river and harbor and general de- fciency.

He Leaves for Now York-None of the Lines
 Running Out of Chicago, However, Arc
 to be Affscted by the Decision of the Con-
 vention.
 Chicago. Aug. 5.-At a meeting here to-day on the general strike selected by the convention of the American Rail- way union last week 1t was decided to declare the great strike off in Chicago. This does not include the Chicago and East Illinois, nor the Santa Fe. where the men have voted to continue the strike to settle local grievances and where they think they have a fair show of winning.
 There were twenty-four local unions represented at the meeting this after noon. and each representative had been empowered to vote to declare the strike off. The meeting was secret one, and at adjournment the only statement giv- en out was as follows:
 By vote of the local unions of the American Railway union in Chicago they have decided that the strike shall ue ueCidrcu oh III tHe Clty Ol SulChSO, with the exception of the local unions on the Chicago and Eastern Illinois and the Santa Fe. where the strike still remains in full force and effect. This is effective at z o'clock Monday morning, August 6. The decision does not apply to the systems outside of Chicago, and the Pullman employees will be expected to settle their own differences.
 Resolutions explaining the reasons for calling off the strike were adopted.
 The example set by the Chicago unions will be followed immediately by the unions throughout the western country, and by Wednesday night at the latest the strike will be declared off all over the country except on the two roads above named.
