SLIGHT STEAMSHIPS OCCUR

London, March 21-Nothing has reached hsre to confirm the report that a battle
 has taken place on the Yalu in which the Russians captured 1890 prisoners.
 A dispatch from St. Petersburg to a news agency here says there has been no change in the situation. and that all

 river and the Japanese line to Gensan. There have been slight skirmishes be- tween scouts. but no battle has taken nlace. as the distance between the op- posing armies is great. The bulk of the Russian forces. the dispatch adds. has not yet passed the Yaiu river. The St. Petersburg correspondent of The.

THE SENATE.

Washington. March, 2o.-Thc present week in the Senate will be devoted ai- most entirely to appropriations bills, be- ginning Tuesday with that for the Dis trict of Columbia. and following with the Indian and Pension bills. Neither the District not the Indian bill has been re- ported from the committee, but both are promised early in the week, and they will take precedence over the pension bill. notwithstanding the latter Is now on the calendar.
 The pension bill is held for possible ad- ditions necessary by additional legisla- ton, but its consideration will not be long delayed. It is not expected there will be any effort to incerase the amount carried by the bill on account of the re- cent executive pension order. Whatever sum may be required to carry the order into effect will be incorporated in gen. eral deficiency bill.
 UnobJected bills on the calander will be taken up tomorrow, and further con- sideration may be given to the Fairbanks bill providing for a new department building in this city.
