CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
Senate StIlv Occupied With hoIdover Appropri-
alton Bills. Arbitration and Cuba,

Washington. ApFfl 19.-The senate will
conclude its consideration of the ap-
preparation bills this week. The Indian
bill is expected to pass today and the
sundry civil and agricultural bills will
follow in the order named. There Is no
expectation that there will be any pro-
longed debate upon any OF the bills.
There will be an effort to amend the
sundry civil bill by the addition of pro-
vision for the regulation of the forest
reservations. This may lead to some dis
cussion, but the friends of the amend
nfent do not anticipate much trouble In
having the amendment agreed to.
Senator Davis will make another at
tempt today i'm executive session to get
a day fixed for taking vote on the ar
bitration treaty. He has announced his
purpose 10 press the treaty to final ac-
ton at as early a date as possible. lie
expects TO have little difficulty in secur-
ing an agreement for date. but some
of the objecting senators intimate that
there still may be opposition. The mat
ter of pairs has been definitely arranged
OH the basis OF two votes for the treaty
to one against il. II is not believed that
a great deal Of time will be given to the
UedLy OuFlnS the Weth, NidNeNNi 'hV uS-
gree OF Mr.. Davis success in securing an
agreement for date for a vote.
The bankruptcy bill will continue to
hold it's place on the calendar as the un-
finished business. but ii probably will not
be seriously pressed. Senator Morgan
has announced his intention to insist
daily upon the consideration of his Gu
ban resolution during the morning hour.
but he will not block other business with
1T.
Much of the senates time will be given
20 the question Of the organization OF the
ssenate committees.
If the program proposed is accepted
both the Republicans and the opposition
will proceed TO make selections for the
committee vacancies. and this work will
require very delicate adjustment in or
der to satisfy conflicting claims. If the
plan is not agreed to by the Republicans
the coalition OF Democrats. Populists
and silver Republicans will tomorrow
move to MI some of the committee va
cancies with the view OF continuing the
process until all are filled. At least such
is the present program.
The house this week will continue the
program OF three-day adjournments un'
less the Indian appropriation bill is re
turned from the senate when II meets or
Wednesday. The complications arisins
out OF the situation in Eastern Europe
possibly may figure in the proceeding
of both houses the latter part OF tht
week
