ADJUSTMENT OF DIFFERENCES
ParIia mentary Machinery to secure
Prompt Action ON Bills.

Washington, June THE house man
ayers have parliamentary machinery in
motion which will enable them to secure
a prompt action on every proposition SUD-
mitted by the conferees on the 1--WE re-
naming appropriation bills looking TO ar
adjustment of the differences between
the two houses. Instead of adjourning
last night the house took recess until
10 o'clock tomorrow morning. That &C
ton continues the Legislative day Of Sat
urday, which by a special order adopted
on Friday, was made a suspension, and
will enable the house to vote on any
proposition after 20 minutes debate. The
differences between the two houses, the
four supply bills-the sundry civil, naval,
Indian and District of Columba-are rad
ical, but by mutual concessions the house
leaders believe the differences can be ad-
justed so as to permit an adjournment
Tuesday Wednesday.
The main difficulty in the way Of an adj
journment by the middle of the week
seems to lie at the senate end Of the
! capitol, where a single senator can OBJ
| struct matters if he chooses, until the
! quorum fails or until the chances of
| sine die adjournment before the st
Louis convention will disappear. An in
tense desire of the members at both ends
| of the capitol to get away raises factious
| oppositfon to yield their individual desires
| to accomplish the result. 1t is positive
| that If Mr.. Harris and others, who are
| represented as insisting upon the restor-
alton of the southern war claims on the
| new general deficiency. should carry
their obstruction tactics too far, the
leaders at both ends of the capitol might
decide to allow the deficiency to fail alto
gether in order to bring about the COW
eted adjournment. While the failure CT
this bill might embarrass the govern
ment 1t would not stop all of the govern
ment machinery.
Whether the senate shall be able to con
clude the work of the session this week
will probably depend upon whether
quorum can be maintained. Some sena
tors are opposed to the passage of the
deficiency bill with the French spoliatior
clause and the store and supply claims
allowed under the Bowman act omitted
Senator Harris makes no secret of hi
intention to demand the restoration o
these items to the bill and says he vii
, not consent to its passage without then
except upon a yea and no vote. II h.
insists upon this voting quorum vii
| he necessary Several senators hav
announced their purpose of leaving tn
city early in the week and many othar
, will depart about the middle of the wee
4 for st. Louis Under these circun
: stances it is possible that adjournment
n may be postponed until the republica
e convention, although there will be ver
: general effort to prevent this.
