The following paragraph from the Seoul

complete openness with which Russia pur-

at the extra session, there viii be no lack

the committee hoppsrs have begun TO

The appropriations committee has been
at work for ten days and Chairman Can

prtncipal bills before the hslidays-the
legislative. executive and judiciary and
the pension bills. One or the other OF
these bills Il is expected will be reported

Beyond doubt there will be several reso-
lutions Of inquiry during the first week
which may be more or less sensational.
Some Of the radical pro-Cuba members
will attempt 70 get consideration for
Cuban resolution before the foreign affairs
committee can act. Congressman L.Ev-
ingscon Of Georgia. is one of these But.
owing to the nature OF the house rules
all these hasty efforts viii prove abortiye

There will be nothing. except indispo-
sition on the part OF the members. TO pre-
vent the senate entering promptly upon its
work upon converting tomorrow as there
is a calendar already made for IL. with
about 81, bills reported from committees
during the special session. If any circum-
stances should prevent the receipt of the
presidents message on Monday. the prob
abilities are that the senate will adjourn
over without taking up any other business
until the message could be received. With
the message read, II will remain with the
senate TO decide as TO whether it shall seri-
ously enter upon the work Of the session
after Monday, or begin a system of delay
intended TO throw all important questions
over beyond the Christmas holidays.
The indications are now for a little more
activity than usual during the pre-heliday
session. This is largely due 20 the fact that
the supporters OF the administration and
advocates of annexation are very anxious
