speeches, during the present week. up
on the Philippine question, but beyond
these notices no indication has been
given of the probable course of events

The currency bill continues to hold
the right of way and it is not improb-
able that it will be made the subject of
more or less speechmaking. 1t is also
quite certain that during the early part
of the week there Will be a change in
the elective offices in the Senate and
that in accordance with the decision
of the Republican caucus Of last week,

tary and Mr.. Ransdell as sergeant at

tinue in executive session. his effort to
secure reconsideration of the Samoan

by the Republicans. There is a tactic
understanding that the Quay contest
will not be taken up until after the dis
position Of the currency bill.
