TO ADJOURN.
SENATE AND HOUSE MAKING READY
FOR SUMMER RECESS.
The Only Work Vow Remaining Is
to Agree ON Conference Reports
on Appropriation Biils-Both
Houses May Adjourn wednesday.

WASHINGTON. June 3.-Conference re-
ports on appropriation and other bills
promise to occupy the attention OF the
house to the exclusion of everything dur
ing the closing days of the session. Only
one piece OF general legislation seriously
threatens the programme, the Grout oleo-
margarine bill. The friends of this meas
ure have been very insistent and have
threatened. in case the senate does not
agree to the resolution for final adjourn
ment on Wednesday, to hold up any
amended resolution until they can have
an opportunity to vote on their bill. A
way out of the difficulty was suggested
yesterday. Tomorrow being suspension
day, Mr.. Tawney may be recognized to
move that an hour OF Tuesday be given
to the oleomargarine bill. AS this mo-
ton will require a two-thrds vote, the
powers that be are willing that the meas
ure be considered If It can command such
an overwhelming majority OF the house.
There are considerable numbers Of dis
puted items on the bills which the house
will probably settle by direct vote-the
appropriation Of the ST. Louis exposition
and some less important items which
the senate placed upon the sundry civil
bill, tho armor plate provision and the
paragraphs relative to ocean and like sur
veys. and the abolition of the sea course
for naval cadets in the naval appropria-
ton bill, and the Miles@Corbin amend
ment on the military academy bill Final
adjournment will come Wednesday.

IN THE SENATE.
Leaders of All Parties Desire Al
tourument Wednesday.

There is now hardly any doubt that the
senate will agree to the house resolution
to adjourn the session Wednesday The
passage of the last of the appropriation
bills leaves no obstacle in the way OF
adjournment except the amendments
made to this bin by the senate. and the
opinion Is almost universal that these
differences can be adjusted and all the
business concluded by the time named.
The only two items of difference which
might cause material delay are the armor
plate amendment and the amendment on
the sundry civil bill. Inc leaders of all
parties, apparently, are united in the
wish to bring the session to close on
Wednesday, and. by beginning the daily
sittings early and allowing them to con-
tinue late. they will succeed. The re-
ma,nder OF the session will be given up
to conference reports and consideration or
comparatively unimportant bills on the
calendar and to the making of speeches
on political questions. There are a half
dozen senators who want to be heard at
some length and they will be accommo-
