Senator Morgan who made long adj
dress severely criticising the President

(FROM OUR REG LAR CONSEQUENTLY

(FRoM Our REG ULAR CONSEQUENTLY
Monday, November 80, 1908.
Congress is In session because Of the
unanimous agreement Of the senators to
postpone the vote on the reciprocity
bill until December l6, and because Of
Speaker Cannon's determination that
Congress shall not adjourn until it has
taken action on the measure for which
it was called together in extra session.
The Senate wished for a vacation be-
fore the beginning Of the regular ses-
sion, on December 7, but as neither
branch of Congress can adjourn tor
more than three days without the con-
sent of the other, the House has forced
the Senate to remain In session. Mr..
Williams has given his list of commit
tee appointments to Speaker Cannon,
and it is believed that the committees
will be announced in time to get some
work done before the regular session.
Several thousand bills have been intro
duced and are waiting to be sent to the
different committees. In some quar-
ters the action of the Senate in post
poning the vote on the Cuban bill until
the regular session is regarded as a
slight to the President for having call
ed the extra session.
