56TH CONGRESS-.
The Program for Coming Week
In Both Houses.
Senate Will Discuss Hay-Pauncefote
Treaty and Shipping Subsidy.
HOUSE WILL ATTEND TO REDJTC
ING WAR REVENUES.

Washington, Dec 9.-The Senate will
continue to give its attention to the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty and the shin
subsidy bill during the present week.
taking up first one and then the other
as may suit the convenience of those
who may wish to speak on the two
measures. During the last session Of
Congress the Nicaraguan canal bill
was made the special order of business
for Monday next: but the establish
ment Of the ship bill as the regular or
der will have the effect of displaying
the canal bill, preference being given
under the Senate rules to a regular Of
der over special order
1t is understood that Senator Nor
gan who has charge Of the canal bill
will not press that measure until the
treaty for the abrogation of the Clay
ton Bulwer treaty is disposed Of. on
this account the friends OF the ship
bin do not apprehend that he will
make any opposition to the continu-
ance of the consideration OF that mea-
sure. He has indeed. said that lie
would be content To allow his bill to
follow closely in the wake of the ship
bill
HItc Vi icuf set speeches. are prom
ised in opposition to the subsidy bill
and IL Is expected that most, If not all
of those already in sight. win be made
during this week. Among those who
probably viii speak on the subject are
Senator'S Clay. Vest and Berry, all OF
whom oppose the bill. Senator Vest
Is an especial advocate Of free ships
There are differences OF opinion as
to what effect the taking OF a vote on
the fertilization amendment to the
treaty will have upon the time Of dis
posing Of that instrument. but a ma
Jority OF the senators express the opin-
ion that the vote upon the treaty itself
will follow very soon after the vote
upon the amendment.
The indications are that the amend
ment Will be adopted and that as mus
amended the treaty will be ratified.
Opponents OF the treaty will offer other
amendments but they DO not count
upon having them favorably acted
upon.
The Senate viii not sit. Wednesday.

ton of~ths est adjustment Of the seat Of
