SOON TO BE OUT OF THE WAY
TOTE EXPECTED ON URGENCY DE-
 FICIENCY BILL BY HEDNESDAR.

Will be Number of Speeches on the In-
 come TaX-Republicans VIII Not Coun-
 tenance Filibustering-Prog of the
 House May be Arranged To-day.
 Washington, Jan. 13.-It Is confidently
 expected that the urgent deficiency bill
 will be out of the way in the senate be-
 fore the end of the week that opens in
 congress tomorrow, There will be a
 number of speeches on the income tax
 from various republicans, but there will
 republicans countenance filibustering.
 Despite the opposition of MT. Quay,
 which has necessitated several roll calls, and the fight that Mir Hill is mak- ing, as soon as the republicans have made the speeches arranged for they
 will have a vote on the bill and will largely support the appropriation. MT Cockrel expects to see the vote taken by Wednesday and says the bill will have at least fifty votes out of the total vote of eighty-five, as the senate now stands.
 The Nicaraguan canal bill is still the unfinished business. The pension, mili- tary academy and the Notifications bill have all been reported and MT. Cockrell expects to call them up as fast as pos sible. The canal bill, while retaining it's right of way, will probably yield to the appropriation bills when they are called up The interest in the senate this week will center about the room of the finance committee rather than upon the proceedings on the floor, with one exception, Mir. Germans promised speech on the financial question, which was to have been delivered on Satur- day, but will probably come off to-mor- row.
 The program in the house for the week will probably be arranged by the committee on rules at q meeting to be held tomorrow Two days are already appropriated-Mond under the rules is devoted to the consideration of busi- ness relating to the District of Colum- bla and Tuesday will be at least partly occupied with the consideration of the Indian bill. In the first morning hour devoted to committee business the Grout bill to make oleomargarine, butterine and other substitutes for and limitations of dairy products subject to the laws Of the state into which they may be trans ported will come up and inevitable pre- cipitate a parliamentary contest There remains but one hour for its considera- tion under the present call of commit tees. and opponents of the bill profess their ability to prevent It's passage with | in that period Should the bill fail to reach a final vote at this stage MT, Hatch will doubtless appeal to the 1 on rules for a special as- signment,
 There is already a tremendous pres sure being brougt to bear upon the com mittee on rules for orders for the dis | position of bills. Requests have been preferred on behalf of enough measures to take up the remaining time of the l session. save that which will be requir- | ed for disposing of the appropriation | bills and the bills called up in morning | hour by the several committees Among l these measures, which, according to a | mernher of the committee on rules, are | ,ikeIy to become the subject of favora- bte action by the committee on rules, are the bills to provide payment of the | French spoliation claims; to provide for | the readiustment and refunding of the l Pacific railroad indebtedness; to erect nubtic buildings in accordance with the of the committee on buildings; to provide for the more speedy settlement of claims arising un- | der the Bowman act; the free snip Dill and the bill providing for the reclassi- dcation and rearranging of the salaries of postal clerks.
