regular appropriation bills has been
| finally acted on by congress and an

! legislative, executive and judicial bill
| SIX other supply bills have passed both
| houses and are in conference With
| only five days of the session left. the
senate still has seven of the most i'm
portant appropriation bills to consider
in whole or in part. OF the seven the
naval and the Indian bills have been
partly read and some features of the
naval bill have been discussed Sen
| ators generally appreciate that the task

sion at u o'clock next SATURDAY. is gi-
gantlc, but none doubts that IT will be
accomplished. 1t will be necessary to
prolong the daily sittings. and all night

Of the week.
Vote on Swayne.
The weeks work will begin with vot-
ing on the Swayne impeachment trial.
The senate will convene for the purpose
of taking up that matter at $50 a. M.
Monday, and it is expected that the
voting will consume about three hours
of time. No debate will be allowed 4

the impeachment articles. and on every
vote each senator will be expected to
rise formally in his place and say
whether he considers Judge Swayne
guilty or not guilty. A two-thirds vote
Will be necessary to impeach on any
one of the charges.
Supply Bills Next.
AS soon as the Swayne case is dis
posed of the naval appropriation bill

lowed by the Indian, the postoffice and
the pension bills in the order named

Monday after the Swayne case Con-
siderable debate on the postoffice and

also on the sundry civil and river and
