WASHINGTON, June 11.-Congress has
settled its differences and by joint reso-
luton fixed upon O'Clock this afternoon
for the end of the session.
The agreement camo late In the day
Just as the prospects FOR adjournment were
beginning to look dark. with both houses
threatening to hold out all summer before
Bither would yield point to the other
with a bare quorum responding to the
roll calls and with a final flare of partisan
political recriminations.
The victory, If thore be one, rests with
the senate for its dozen amendments to
the sundry civil bill making appropria-
tions for public buildings IN western cit
les were accepted gracefully by the house
when house leaders still insisted upon the
prerogative of their body to originate ap.
proprfations. Both factions to the contest
over government aid to church institu-
tions claimed to have prevailed in the
compromise of the District of Columbia
bill, which continued for one more year
the disbursals to church charitable insti-
tutions, coupling the extension with
declaration that tho governments policy
is to expend no moro money in this field.
The senate disposed of the last of the
appropriation bills and adjusted many
minor differences between the two houses
preparatory to the adjournment.
Mr.. Hale of Maine gave notice of a mo-
tion to reconsider the vote by which the
bill increasing the pay of letter carriers
was passed. He said the time was inop-
perfume. for increasing the government
expenditures 81, 10000 annually or for
swelling salaries Of any kind.
The vice president signed the sundry
civil appropriation bill preparatory to its
going to the president
An enormous amount of business was
transacted by the house in order to clear
the desks for the final adjournment this
afternoon. The absence of Mr.. KEN per-
mitted members to pass bills in the olos-
ing hours In which they were vitality in
terested. There was a great clamor for
recognition. Fifty-three bills and joint
resolutions were passed, the most impor-
tant of which was probably the bill appro-
priating $500, 600 for the Transmisslssippl
exposition at Omaha. Mr.. Allen of Mis-
sissippi, the wit OF the house, enlivened
the day with humorous speech. Chair
man Cannon of the appropriations com
mittee made gallant fight TO induce the
house to stand out against the senate pub
lie building items in the sundry civil bill,
but the members outvoted bim-10o to S.
After the conference report on the District
of Columbia bill containing a compro-
mise on sectarian charities had been pre-
sented Mr.. Cannon precipitated heated
discussion of the political situation. in
which Mr.. Dookery CDem. }. Of Missouri
and Mr.. DinRley (Rep.) OF Maine partioi-
pated. The work Of the session was elab-
orately reviewed. criticised and defended
The conference report on the District of
