Nothing Important Expected During the
First Legislative Week. .s
WASHINGTON. Dec S:--The first week
OF the senate session is not expected to
be productive of important results in
legislative way. There are many sena-.
tors who think that but little Or moth.
ing should be done beyond the passage
of the appropriation bills at this ses-
sion,. and, as these measures necessarily
originate in the house, there will be a
disposition to postpone the season Of
activity until some of these bills can be
received from the other end Of the Cap
itol. The proba bilities are that the
daily sessions at the beginning will be
comparatively brief and that the SEN
ate will content itself with four days
work each week. The calendar pre-
sents wide range of material for con-
sideration in case the senate J., ~<<ss-
Shows Disposition to Bury Itself.
In this is included the immigration
bill, which is the unfinished business
the Pacific railroad refunding bill, the
statehood bills and the Dingley tariff
and bond bills, as well as the Hawaiian
and Cuban questions. ~~,,s. ..a.. =
Senators Lodge and Chandler have
announced their determination to press
the immigration bill to vote as speed
lily as they can. It will be the first reg
ular business to be taken up, and can
not be displaced except by vote or unan
imous consent. They hope to get the
bill through before the holidays.
It is generally agreed that the Re-
publicans will hold caucus to deter.
mine upon a line of policy, especially
with reference to the tariff, and until
after the exchange of views which this
conference will permit no important
step is likely to be taken. II II d,

Feeling inthe Senate That Only
supply Measures Should
Be Passed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. he opening
week promises 10 seesthe house put its
shoulder to the wheel of the regular
propriations bills. Chairman Can.
non and the committee on appropria:
tions were at work all last week aud il
is their earnest intention to pass two
and possibly three Of the bills before
the Christmas holidays The pension
and legislative appropria ton bills are
about ready and work on one. or the
other Of these will be begun in, the
house before the week closes. The
pension bill, although 1t carries a
larger amount of money than any Of
the other supply bills, is very brief and
unless s
Some Political Discussion ), @
is precipitated, is not likely to consume
much time in its consideration. Be-
yond these two bills nothing is in sight
at present. It is, of course, not un-
likely that the committee on rules will
provide something for TIL, house to do
in case the committee on appropria tionsz
is not prepared to go ahead with either
of these appropriation bills. The
course Of the legislation so far as the.
important measures on the calendar is
concerned dixie the Pacific railroad
funding bill, etc. will be determined
entirely by the rules committee. But
it is safe to assume that nothing will
be allowed to block the appropriation
bills as they are reported for action
They always have the right Of way at
the short session

LATE NEWS ITEMS

a DISPATCH from Bombay, on the
14th, said: Terrible floods have oc.
CURED through the overhowing of the
River Kistna. The damage to prop
erty is immense. and many persons
have been rendered homeless, their
houses having been swept away. Two
hundred persons were drowned by the
sinking of a boat near Tatara. The
overAowing water from the river has
washed ont a breach seven miles long
in the Nizam or Hyderabad railway.
AFTER two years trial it has been
discovered that the famous Krug-Jor-
gensen rife is at fault. The rear sight
of the weapon has been improperly
adjusted on all the rifles of the infan-
try and the carbines of the cavalry.
The trouble with the sight is such
that if good shot aims accurately at
the right hand of a lay figure he stands
a good chance of having his bullet
nip piece out of the left ear of the
dummy.
JAMES w. Poe, president of the Ma
tional Republican Protective associa-
ton, said, on the 14th, that up to date
A colored free silver clubs had been

porting, he says, to assist-in bringing

JOHN E. DUBI6NoN, managing owner
of the tug Dauntless, said, on the 18th,
that he was in nowise connected with
the flibustering scheme upon which
the vessel was said to be engaged. and
Coney & Parker, New York agents,
stated that the Dauntless had gone to
Florida waters to tow barge.
MR. BRYAN has abandoned for the
present his proposed trip to Maine.

ney east and of constant speaking has

considerably more of the road bed will
