CONGRESS- MEETS TODAY.
Measures Which Are
Likely To Come Up.
Subsidy Bill Disputes Precedence
With Army Bill.
Opposition Won't Delay
The Latter.
Apportionment Bill To Be Dis
posed of This Week.

Washington, January y.--rhe genera
expectation among senator's is that the
first few days OF the time Of the Senate
after RECOMMENDING tomorrow will be de-
voted ., consideration OF the army reor.
ganization bill, but there is some dispo-
sition to make an arrangement for al
vision Of time that will permit of the
continued presentation of the ship sub.
sidy bill during part Of each day.
A nesting OF tbs committee on mill
tary affairs has been called for tomorrow,
when the matter of procedure probably
will be discussed ana . decision rescbed
as to whether the committee shall ask
for all the time OF the Senate until Its
bill is disposed Of or for only part Of ID.
some members of the committee are dis
posed to divide time with the subsidy
bill for the present, but all senator's, re-
gardless OF polite, consider the army
bill of pressing importance. Hence it Is
probable some arrangement will be
reached guarding against any protracted
delay on the military measure. While
comparatively few of the opposition sem
ators will vote for that bill, none OF them
appear willing to make any objection to
its early consideration.
There are still several speeches to be
made upon the subsidy bill, but appar-
emily none of the promised speeches have
been prepared, SO that Senator Hawley
may be able to go on unintsrruptedly
for some time with the army bill, regard
less OF any arrangement concerning the
subsidy hill.
IN THE HOUSE.
Washington, January 2.-The House
probably viii dispose OF the re-apportion-
ment bill this week, although Chair
man Burton OF the rivers and harhors
committee, Is inclined to contest the
right OF way with the census committee,
A very determined fight will be made
against his bill by members from states
which lose representatives under 1t, and
Mr.. Hopkins desires full house when
the vote Is taken. He is confident that
his meas ire will carry with full at
tendance. In any event neither Mr.. Hop
kins nor Mr. Burton desires TO proceed
tomorrow so that the session tomorrow
probably will be SO brief and unimp or
tant. On Friday either the river and
harbor or the re-spportionment bill Will
be taken up. II 1t should be the latter,
the expectation is that its consideration
will be completed on Saturday. II the
former. the length Of time to be con-
sumed is problematioal.
