FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.
Senate Committee to Meet Before
Congress Assemblies.

The Senate finance committee will prob
ably hold a session about two weeks be-
fore Congress meets for the purpose of
considering the question of proposed finan-
cial legislation. There has as yet been no
conference between the Senate committee
and the House CAUCUS committee, which
has formulated measure to be proposed to
Congress. The Senate committee, on meet
ing, Will Consider this measure. but from
the consideration 10 this measure that has
been given by members of the Senate COM
mittee individually and from judgment of
the temper of the Senate it is expected
that the committee will not adopt the House
measure as it stands. but will draw up one
of its own, relying on a conference between
the two houses to adjust the matter after
each house has passed It's own bill.

Captain Longnecker, left New York Sat
urday afternoon on her long voyage to
Manila by way of the Suez canal. Her
boilers are said to be in fairly good condi-
ucn, but the ship will not be able TO make
over ten knots an hour. Owing To her
somewhat crippled condition, due to the
excessive speed I'm preparing her for serv-
ice in the Philippines, il viii take her about
three months to make the trip. Her first
stop will be at Algiers and she will also
stop at Port Said and Colombo for coal
and provisions.
