WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-rhe prospect in
the senate this week is for more talk than
accomplishment When the senate ad-
tourned on Saturday the senate's attitude
towards Hawaii, the proposed recession
from the senate amendments to the income
tax appropriation, and the Nicaragua bill
all occupied In different ways, technically
considered, the position of unfinished bust
ness.
The income tax question has the right Of
way by virtue of its being part of an mp.
preparation bill The Hawaiian question
will in all probability be considered, If
not crowded out by the debate on the in
come tax. Senator Hill is expected to
stand out for his income tax amendment.
The Nicaragua question still holds It's
place at the head of the calendar for con
sideration daily after 3 o'clock. Senator
Morgan said today that he was still hope
full of securing vote on this bill before
the close of the week, but If there should
be many Interruptions he may again be
disappointed. Senator Turpie has the
floor for a reply to Senator Morgan, and is
expected to make one Of his characteristic
speeches. There will also be other ad
dresses on this subject before the vote is
finally taken
Senator Cockrell expected to ask to have
the Notifications appropriation bill taken
up as soon as the urgent deficiency bill is
out of the way, and thinks there will be
70 difficulty in getting 1t through duriHg
the week.
The friends of the bankruptcy and terri
torial admission bills are growing anxious
concerning the fate of these measures, and
are beginning to be apprehensive that time
may not be left for their consideration if
the Nicaragua bill be not soon disposed of.
The present prospect is against a revival
of the financial and currency question in
the senate during the week, but much will
depend upon the action of the committee
on finance at its meeting tomorrow and
also upon the attitude of the house of rep
resentatives
This promises to be a busy and import
ant week in the house. The program ar
ranged by the committee on rules before
the departure of Speaker Crisp for Ashe-
vile, n. c.. Saturday night (where he ex-
poets to remain week or two) contem-
plates the consideration of the public build
ing bills on the calendar, to be followed
by the Indian appropriation bill now
under consideration, the sundry civil and
the agricultural appropriation bills The
committee on rules, after much urging,
| decided to bring in closure rule to secure
| a vote on the bill for a new public build
| ing at Chicago to cost S40O0,00O. The i'm
provements for the New York public build
ing are provided for in the sundry civil
| bill. The other public building bills, six
in number, are as follows Newport, KY,
100000; Cumberland, Md, 5000; South
Omaha, Neb, 100000; Paterson n. j.,
$250000; Brookline, Mass, 1900; Potts
vile, Pa, 900.
The program as arranged for the week
may be subject to change in case Mr..
| Springer, chairman of the committee on
banking and currency, decides before the
end of the week to bring forward his new
measure. He has been in constant con
sultation with Secretary Carlisle for tho
past week, and is very sanguine that con
| cessions can be made to the silver men
| which will induce them to withdraw their
| opposition. He expresses the opinion that
| he would bring forward the modified bill
| this week. and that it will pass. This
| opinion, however, is not generally shared
| by the Democratic leaders of the house,
most of whom do not hesitate to say that
they believe all hope of currency legisla-
| tion at this session is dead.
