Congress- ON Monday.

Congress reassembles on Monday. What
will the harvest be? Talk, and the passage
of the supply bills? That is the popular
prediction. and 1t is heard quite as often in
republican as in democratic circles. What
more. We are asked. may reasonably be ex-
pected when the time limit Is considered?
What important matter was ever under
taken and entirely carried through at
short session of Congress?
As a rule republicans who indulge in this
prediction hope to see 1t fulfilled, and to
the extent Of their power will assist to that
end. They are characterized as the stand
patters," and they are disposed to stand
pat for an indefinite period They would
have the next Congress be quite as inactive
so far as the tariff question Is concerned
as the present one has been, and Is likely to
remain to the close. The democrats, of
course make the prediction as reproach.
They hope to see 1t fulfilled, because do
nothing record on the part Of the republic
cans will, as they believe, inure in the presi-
Dental campaign to the benefit of the demo-
cratic party.
Not only is the responsibility with the re-
publicans, but the field is fairly open for
action. The speakership of the next House
will not be disturbing factor in any of the
calculations. Mr. cannon election IL dS-
sured, and it Is not probable that any radi-
cal changes will be made in the more i'm
portant committee assignments We have
then this situation: The present House has
three months more Of life, and the party in
control has new lease of legislative power,
obtained on the 4th instant. There are sew
eral important questions pressing. the tariff
at the head Of list. Why should not some
thing be done? How can the party hope
for a continuation of public favor unless 1t
shows a continuation of the courage which
restored 1t to office?
Standing pat Is a good short phrase, but
those who have investigated its origin say
that 1t should be applied to politics with
caution. The man who stands pat does not
always take the stakes. He sometimes
gives better exhibition of nerve than Of
judgment. He sometimes groans to see the
gentleman sitting opposite try to improve
his own hand and make his bet without an
overpowering regard for the pat hand.
Standing pat on the tariff has brave
sound, but it may be perilous. The repub-
lican party's hand can be improved, and it
should be. Mr.. Hanna and his friends would
do well to glance at their cards again.

The District Estimates.

Secretary Shaw's decision to make no
changes In the District Commissioners es-
Inmates but to submit them intact TO Con-
gress IS wise. These estimates represent
close study Of local conditions by the mu-
nicipal authorities and involve certain
problems as intricate in their way as some
OF those which the Treasury Department is
called upon to solve. That department has
never in the past closely identified itself
with the work Of preparing the annual
budget for the capital the transaction hav-
ing been relegated, as is proper to the ap-
preparations committees Of Congress and
these bodies in turn have always consulted
the Commissioners before making their
changes. This year the local financial sit
uation Is as acute as ever before and de-
mands the most careful consideration. The
Commissioners have properly placed their
estimates at the point Of necessity rather
than Of net prospective revenue, arguing
with good reason that the current revenues
should not be drawn upon to meet the full
cost of great permanent Improvements on
practically a cash payment basis The estl-
mates can not be considered in detail until
a policy has been adopted as to this ques-
ton. If the large works already provided
for but not yet completed and those still
In contemplation are TO be financed out Of
immediate revenues. then, of course, the
appropriations for schools, police, fremen,
streets, sewers and the general admins
trative needs must be materially cut below
the point Of actually maintaining the pres
ent rate OF municipal progress. But If on
the other hand the wiser and more equita-
bic plan Of providing for these great ex-
penditures on a sinking fund basis Is
adopted there is no good reason why the es-
Inmates should not be approved by Con-
gress approximately as they now stand
This being a question therefore Of general
legislation affecting the Districts future
welfare it is well that the whole RESPONSE
bility has been passed along to Congress,
the Districts legislature

a match even In Pennsylvania, which has
had a comparatively poor season. owing to
the superiority OF the teams which Penn
to Michigan. The fourteen teams scored In
yesterdays Star stand as follows on the
season: Michigan, Yale, Princeton, Cor
nell, West Point, Carlisle, Lehigh, Harvard.
Lafayette, Pennsylvania, Columbia, Brown.
New York University and Annapolis. This
rating La based upon the percentage Of
points scored by each out Of the total scored
in the games they played. This method
approximately meets the requirements Of
the case, and the results correspond In
general to those attained when the percent
reckoned. Yet, according to the latter
method, Harvard would stand third instead
Of eighth, Michigan and Yale each winning
eleven and losing none-Yale having had
one game tied-and Harvard winning eleven
and losing one, while Princeton won eight
and lost one. It L. significant that out Of
the 118 games whose scores enter into these
figures So resulted in 'whitewash." In
these 118 games the total scores Of the
winners were 1885, or an average Of 24.9
points to the game, while the total scores
of the losers were 663. or an average Of SO
points to the game This great discrepancy
is perhaps accountable for the fact that
foot ball. while attracting great numbers
OF partisan spectators to the intercollegiate
games, does not secure firm hold on the
affections Of the sport-loving pubic in
general.
