Ercss Finally AdJOurns.
Despite the tediousness of his long wait
at the Capitol Wednesday afternoon and
evening President Mckinley was there
again yesterday, reaching the President
room shortly before 4 o'clock p. M, and
remaining until final adjournment had been
announced. In that interval he received
calls from the members of the two Houses
and signed sxty-one private pension bills
and one or two others Of minor Importance,
which had received final al ton in the Sem
ate in the closing hours. Fifteen min
utes before the hour fixed for adjournment
the Naval Appropriation bill, which had
blocked the closing session for tweIty-six
hours, reached the Senate with the ink
from Speaker Henderson, pen scarcely
dry. President pro tenn Frye inscribed his
name to the parchment, and few mo-
ments later it had become 4 law by the
Presidents signature.
The joint committee appointed by the
two houses to wait on the President, head
ed by Senators Allison and Cockrell, was
received Immediately afterward, and after
being informed that the President had
no further message to communicate to
Congress, returned to their respective
chambers TO report. The President then
left the Capitol for the White House.

On December Mr.. Overstreet intro
duced a bill the title of which was "A
bill to define and fix the standard of
value. to maintain the parity Of all forms
of, money issued or coined by the United
States, and for other purposes"
On Thursday, December z, Mr.. Over
street asked unanimous consent that the
bill might be considered in Committee
Of the Whole, declaring that some gen.
tlemen on both sides have made enquiry
as to when debate on that bill may be
begun. / learn that there is quite
general feeling, shared at least by the
members on this side of the chamber, in
favor Of an immediate consideration of
that bill; ard / trust that some arrange
ment may be made with members on the
other side of the chamber whereby that
proposition may be taken up soon.''
Mr.. Richardson said mo member on this
side OF the House even knows the con-
tents of the bill we will be called upon
to consider. No committee on this side
of the House has had an opportunity to
analyze its provisions, to be able to state
to this House and to this country what
We think of it. So, Mr.. Speaker, when We
are confronted here by a proposition
to grant unanimous consent that such
financial measure, of the gravity and i'm
portance Of this bill, shall be taken up
after two intervening week days, on next
Monday. and then to be considered. it
seems to me it is utterly unreasonable
TO suppose that We can be expected to
agree to such proposition
The consideration Of this momentous
bill was begun by the House on December
IL In pursuance Of the following order,
Resolved, That on Monday, December IL. i'm.

'Ah! George" said Sanders, Il
