dertaking is approximately s1S40o0,OOO. Mr..
Cannons estimate also omitted contracts
for future expenditure included in the ON
nibus public building, the omnibus claims
and various other bills, aggregating large
amount. This will carry the total for the
session figuring in these future amounts al
most, if not quite, up to the billion dollar
mark. The appropriation bills have con-
tanned little general legislation, being con-
fined chiefly to the regular needs of the va
rious' branches of the government. The
naval bill, provides for an addition of two
armored cruisers, two battleshps and two
gunboats to the navy.
There have been several Investigations
during the session which have attracted
much attention An investigation of condi-
lions in the Philippines conducted by the
Philippine committee of the Senate, has led
to the examination of many witnesses high
in the conduct of civil and military affairs
In the islands. Another Senate inquiry has
related to the condition of affairs. in Cuba,
especially as to sugar. In the House SEN
sational charges made in connection with
the purchase of the Danish West Indian
islands led to an investigation which dis
closed the groundless nature of the charges.

THE NAVAL BILL.
One Point Still in Controversy-other
Action by the House.

After the conference report the Dis
trict appropriation bill was adopted in the
House Saturday afternoon, the conference
report on the naval bill was called up and
also adopted. There is still one point in
controversy on this measure, the building of
ships in government yards The House is
contendng that one battle ship, one armor-
ed cruiser and one gunboat shall be built
in government yards, while the Senate dis
agreed to this provision.
Mr.. FoSs moved to recede and concur in
the Senate amendment with an amendment
requiring that the Secretary Of the Navy
should build at least one ship in a govern
ment yard, and provided further that the
Secretary of the Navy, should have authori-
ty If he did not obtain reasonable bids to
have all the sfiips built in government
yards Mr. FosS told the House that the
conferees found that the Senate absolutely
declined to accept thes House provision in
its original forn3nbuta he declared that the
amendment he offered contained substan-
TALLY the same provision except that the
Secretary was oraly- required to build one
ship in the government yard.
Mr.. w. w: Kitchin On. c. urged the
House to stand hyaitd original action and
insist that battle ship. cruiser and a
gunboat should be Built in government
yards If the amendment prevailed, he
said, the Secretary of the Navy would build
only d SunDOat at "a government, yard
Mr.. Foss' motion was lost-S1 to 81 The
House then further Insisted upon it's dis
agreement to the Senate amendment to
strike out the provision, and the bill was
sent back to conference. Messrs. Foss
Ull), Tayler (Ohiol and Meyer Ga) were
appointed conferees The conference report
on the bill to prevent false branding of
foods was adopted. A special rule was
adopted to make the Dick militia bill a con-
tinuing order. not to interfere with corf-
ference reports. A resolution was adopted
to grant the commissioner from Porto Rico
the privilege of the floor of the House The
conference report upon the bill to confirm
the Chocktaw and Chickasaw agreement
was adopted. Bills were passed to extend
for one year the time in which to make
final proof in desert land entries In the
Yakima reservation, Washington: to ap-

Trans-Pacific Cable.

The bill to establish a cable between the
United States, Hawaii and the Philippines
was retired by defeat in the House of Rep
resentatives. Several other measures have
advanced to a certain stage and have there
halted without much prospect for further
advancement. These include the bill for the
election of United States senators by direct
vote of the people. 1t passed the House
by practically unanimous vote. but in the
Senate has received little attention and is
not likely to pass.
The House passed a bill relating to tho
immigration laws, codifying and amending.

changes. 1t has been reported to the Sen

passage at this session. The bill defining

The Appropriations.

The amount of appropriations for the ses-
sions will run unusually high. owing in
part to the amount required to build the
isthmian canal. When Mr. Cannon sub
mitted a general estimate of appropriations
a few weeks ago he made the total up to
that time 1881 ,445.OOO Since then the canal
bill has passed. carrying a present appro-
priation of $40.0O0.0O0 for the franchise and
enough more for the rights of Colombia and
for beginning the work to carry the total
up to $50 100000. The entire cost of the I'M

Department of Commerce.

On the other hand. the Senate passed an
important measure creating a department
of commerce, to be presided over by a
cabinet officer. but it made no progress in
the House, not having been reported from
the committee on commerce. Another bill
of interest to the commercial world is the
pure food measure, which was drafted by
the pure food congress-, and, after extended
hearings. was reported from the House
committee on commerce. but not passed.
The Fowler bill probably was the most
important financial measure which has been
brought before Congress. After consider
able public discussion and several confer
ences by the members of the House. it has
gone over for consideration next December.
Another financial measure, known as the
Hill bill, providing for the coinage of sub
sidiary silver and for the retirement of the
present standard silver dollar. has passed
the House, but has not been acted on in

Anti-Anarchy Legislation.

Aside from these important laws are
number of other measures of general i'm
portance which have passed one or both
houses, but have not progressed to the final
stage. These include the anti-anarchy
legislation, which grew out of the assasi-
nation of President Mckinley. Bills re-
stricting anarchy and throwing safeguards
about the President have passed both
branches of Congress, but it has been i'm
possible to reach an agreement in confer
ence so that the subject goes over until
next December. A bill giving to Arizona
New Mexico and Oklahoma, known as the
omnibus statehood bill, passed the House
and the Senate has determined to take up
the matter early in the next session.
The ship subsidy bill received early at
tention in the Senate. but the end of the
reported to the House. AS it passed the
Senate the bill grants graded subsidies
to steam and sailing vessels of American
build. In the House it has been deemed de-
sirable to let the subject go over until the
short session, when it is expected that a
bill on the subject will be reported and
urged to passage.
The bill creating the Appalachian forest
reserve. including a vast tract in the APP
palachian mountain section of the south
has received favorable attention in both
houses but has gone over for final adjust
ment of differences until next December

THE WORK OF CONGRESS
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE DURING
THE SESSION.
Business Activity-Many
Questions of General Interest En-
gagged Attention.

| The new side wheel steamer built at the
| closed, so that it is possible to sum up the
| record of what has been accomplished dur
| ing the past seven months, which consti-
| tutes the first session of the Fifty-seventh
| Congress. The session has been marked by
| exceptional business activity, with many
questions of far-reachng general interest
engaging attention. With the exception Of
the Cuban reciprocity bill most of the
larger subjects of general legislation have
been enacted as laws, or will become such
before the session closes. Notable among
these larger measures is the isthmian canal
bill, which consummates the efforts of
half century to link together the waters of
the Atlantic and the Pacific. Aside from Its
national and International Importance this
bill probably involved a larger sum of
money than that covering any other single
undertaking by the government outside of
war expenditures.
Among the other important general laws
enacted are those repeating the war reve-
nue. taxes. extending and making more eff
fective the Chinese exclusion laws, estab-
fishing a tariff for goods to and from the
Philippines, extending the charter of
tional banks for twenty years, establish
ing permanent census office, restricting
the sale of oleOmargarine by placing high
tax on imitation butter. providing a con-
sular and diplomatic service for Cuba es-
tablishing extensive system by which
the government will aid in the irrigation of
the arid sections of tie west
War Taxes Abolished
The repeal of the war revenue taxes re-
duced taxation $500. coo. and is said to
be the largest single reduction of taxation
ever made in this country. By this step
the last of the taxes imposed at the begin
ming of our war with Spain was wiped out.
The Philippine tariff act imposes 70 per
cent of the Dingey tariff rates on articles
coming from the Philippines to the United
states, and also imposes on articles enter
ing the Philippines from the United States
the rates of duties established by the Phil
1ppine commission. the Oleomargarine act
results from several years of agitation. 1t
places a tax of 10 cents a pound on sub
stances colored to initiate butter.
Irrigation Act.
The irrigation act is of special Importance
to the development of the west. 1t creates
an irrigation fund in the Treasury Depart
ment, into which is to be paid the proceeds
of the sales of public lands in the arid
states. This fund in turn is to be used in
storing water and establishing irrigation
systems, the irrigated sections to be open
to hOmesteaders, who are to be charged a
proportionate share of the cost of improve
ment.
The Chinese exclusion law continues ex-
clusion until otherwise provided by law"
and also applies the exclusion ito the
island territory under the jurisdiction of the
