 In Congress the outlook does not promise very exciting week. In the Senate the Merchant Marine bill holds the place of unfinished business each day after 2 o'clock and the Pure Food bill has the preference place during the morning hours. There is not ap- parent. however. any disposition on the part of any large number of Senators Go press either measure to a speedy termination.
 Senator Mallory will probably speak tomorrow on the Shipping bill and the Pure Food bill will doubtless be made the subject of more or less considera- tion not only tomorrow but on other days during the week. Senator Lodge has suggested a number of amend ments to~it and other Senators will fol- low his example in that respect. Senator Tillman will be heard dur ing the week on his resolution relative to the situation in Santo Domingo and there are intimatiops that a Moroccan question will be revived but the intro ductiop of a revised resolution on that subject.

It has been decided to postpone for at least a week the reporting of the Statehood bill from the committee This leaves the busi- ness of the week now in sight simply inc hnishirO of he Philippine bill and day or penSloH ieSIsidt'oh'

 In the meantime the Appropriations Committee is working daily to perfect the urgent deficiency appropriation bill This measure was to have been ready inc first of the week but on account of the thoroughness with which the committee has gone into the necessity of urgent deficiency appropriations. for the purpose. as Chairman Tawney puts it, of ending the practice of depart mental appropriations, the bill will not he ready until the latter part of this week or the first of the following week.
