Washington, May 27.-The house today passed the shattuc immigration bill.

 THE SENATE.
 Washington, May 27.-A fruitless effort was made just before the adjournment of the Senate today to secure an agreement on time for a vote on the Philippine bill The discussion indicated that some day next week eventually would i, be agreed upon. A proposition was mEde that a time be fixed on alternate Tuesdays, be- ginning next week. for a vote on the Philippine bill, the Nicaragua canal bill and the Cuban reciprocity bill, and that final adjournment be agreed on for the fourth Tuesday; but 1t was too startling to be taken seriously, although some Sem ators regarded it favorably.
 For several hours today Mir Patterson Of Colorado discussed the Philippine ques- ton. He urged that the Filipinos be granted their independence and drew an eloquent word picture of the turning over to the Filipinos by the United States of the islands when they had established a government.
