Prospective Work OF She Senate and House
This Week.

This Week.
WAsHINGToG, Jan. 6.-The senate Is
not In session today, but It is expected to
resume tho work of tho session in earnest
tomorrow. The finance committee has
promised to report both tho bond bill and
the revenue tariff bill on that day, and it
may be reasonably expected that If this
promise is kept the debate during the re-
mainder Of the week and for some time
nfterward will DO based upon those bills.
The bond bill probably will be the first
Of the two measures TO receive attention,
and it is considered probable fortnight
will be devoted 60 its consideration. The
Republicans are hopeful Of being able to
dispose OF tho tariff bill in the Same longth
Of time. They have received assurances
from individual Democratic leaders that
they will not resort to dilatory tactics to
prevent the early disposal of either of the
bills. This docs not mean, however. that
they will not insist upon a thorough dc
bate upon them.
Senator Elkins' bond resolution holds
its place on the calendar as unhnish-
ed business, and is in position to furnish
a basis Of discussion until the financial
committee bills shall be reported. II IL
should not be acted upon before these re-
ports are made, it is yet uncertain whoth-
or tho resolution would be pressed, but
the chances are that &c would be.
The finance committee will meet again
this evening, by which time it is pre-
sumed the silver majority Of the commit
tee will have proposed its substitute for
the bond bin which will provide for free
coinage. The fate OF the tariff BIZ is not
SO certain. On this bin tho Republicans
consider themselves masters Of the situa-
tion in committee, and they are in doubt
whether to report IL as it came from the
house or to amend 10 in accordance with
the wishes Of individual Republican sem
ators. There is a disposition on the part
of some Of the members to increase the
advance made on all the schedules except
that covering sugar from 10 to 90 per
cent while others think the increase
should only apply to agricultural prod
ucts In either event it is probable that
the sugar schedule will receive the same
treatment as the other schedules, in obedi-
ence 70 the wishes of Senator Perkins Of
California and Senator Thurston Of Ne
braska.
The house this week will settle down
to the routine work Of the session. Until
Wednesday,, however, the work will not
be well defined, as none Of the commit
tees has reported bills, and the first three
days Will therefore be devoted to unani-
nous consent legislation and such mat
tors as may bo brought before the house.
On Wednesday, or at latest on Thursday,
the pension appropriation bill will be ro-
ported and its consideration will be enter
cd upon.
As rule the deficiency bill is the first
appropriation bill considered but the es-
Inmates for the deficiencies will not be
submitted until next week, and as the
pension bill is ready, save for its formal
approval by the full appropriation com
mittee on Wednesday, it has been decided
to dispose Of it while work on the other
regular appropriation bills is proceeding

GRAND OPERA Ho1rsE.

The Grand Opera house was crowded to its utmost capacity last night to well come the old favorite, Dan Mccarthy, in his great play, 'Cruiskeen Lawn" Long before tfe opening time big line had formed and things jogged along merrily in the ticket office for some time, but the best of things must have an end, and it soon became necessary to stop the sale. A special feature with this company is the fine band and or chestra, which is the best that has been heard here this season. The man. agement has been exceedingly liberal in staging the play, and the scenery and accessories are quite elaborate and effec, tive. The interior of the public house is strikingly presented, as are also the old mill, Skelly's glen, the fairy pool and the prison. In fact the stage effects were quite in keeping with the excel lent cast and the work of the principal players.
 As a personator of the always funny Irish character Dan Mccarthy has won deserved and great popularity He is careful and painstaking actor, who evidently has high ideals, and is never satisfied with doing anything but his best. His conception of the character of Old Paddy Miles is beyond criticism, and his presentation of the part shows the ability to put his conception into word and gesture and act He kept the audience in merry mood last evening, while he was not at all lacking in the more serious situations of the play. The supporting company is a strong one wherever strength and ability is needed. Miss Lou Ripley as Nora Ma guire was a typical Irish lass, and Miss Rita Villiers as Kate Carney did some excellent work. Miss Maggie Weston, who took the part of Mrs. Kelly, was quick, bright, voluble and in every way did herself credit. The parts borne by Thomas J. Smith and others of the com pany were well sustained, while Lucille Leith personated the Carney in a man. ner that charmed and delighted the audience. Altogether a more pleasing play or company has not been seen this season than ''The Cruiskeen Lawn" with Dan Mccarthy and his able SUD- port.
 There will be a matinee to-day and tomorrow.

poLI's WONDERLAND rHEArER.

The new show for this week drew crowded houses yesterday at every per- formance. It gave the most abundant satisfaction. The four Angela sisters, who are the chief attraction, are four very pretty and talented girls who sing most charmingly number of four part songs and glees. They do some very fine whistling also, making speciality that is at once original and unique. Morton and Mack introduce an act that is a decided novelty, MT. Mack playing the Irish bagpipes, while Mir. Morton presents the national dances of Ireland. It is a novelty in every respect, and an exceedingly pleasing one. The mu- sical specially of the -Clerise trio is very pretty one, there being two ladies in the group who play the harp, violin, mandolin and banjo with great skill Other attractive specialties are presented by Miss Flo. Banks, MT. and Mrs. Campbell, George Moore, Arthur Moreland and John Hart, Miss Rosina Venus, and Baker and Lynn.

DEATH OF cAprArs STRICKLAND

Occurred Yesterday-A Captain in the Civil
 War-Funeral to be Conducted by Ad-
 miral Foote Post, G. AYR.
 The death of Captain Nelson Irving Strickland, son of the late R. N. Strick- land of this city, occurred yesterday at 20 Lamberton street, where he had lived for the last fourteen years. MT. Strick- land had been for some years a drug clerk, employed in Ballou's drug store on Kimberly avenue. He was nearly fifty-six years of age and was born in New London, but had lived in New Ha- ven during the greater part of his life. He was a captain ill the late war, where he served with distinction. MT. Strick- land was member of Admiral Foote post, C. A. R., and had recently joined the Masons.
 The funeral will be conducted by the G. A. R., but full arrangements for it have not yet been made. He had been i'll for some time, but the immediate cause of death was peritonitis. He leaves two sisters, Mrs. George H Beardsley of this city and Mrs. Harri- son of North Branford.
