WASHINGTON. d. c.. May 22- -
II the Senate Is good from now on
II 1t doesn't get into any more long
strife and executive wrath again; in
a word. II the Senate sticks close to
its knitting and viii content itself to
passing the big supply bills and
nothing else, then it is not inaproba-
BILE for Congress to adjourn about
June 20. OF course, however. If the
Senate insists upon working overtime
on the Panama canal and other Ike
things. then the session may be
stretched OUT beyond July l.
Mr.. Aldrich was in his seat Monday
for the first time In several days. and
during the day was consulted by many
Senators as to what time he thought
adjournment could be looked for. Tho
Rhode Islander was unable to make
a positive prediction. though he told
a number of inquirers that he was
looking into the question and thought
he would know something definite
about 1t in day or two.
Subjects that are frauShI with the
danger of prolonsins the session be-
Eond June 20 are the Panama canal.
the Philippine tariff bill, the Santo
Domingo treaty. and the Reed Smoot
case. Final consideration Of the last
named subject by the Committee or
Privileges and Elections again was
postponed yesterday on account OF
the temporary indisposition of Sena-
tor Burrows. the chairman While it
is still generally believed that the
committee will report adversely to the
Mormon Senator. il is beginning to
appear NOT improbable that the case
win not be pressed upon the Senate
for a vote at this session. All inter
ests seem willing that the whole mat
ter should go over to the next session
mainly because of the doubtful egecr
its settlement one way or the other at
this time might have upon the cam
paisn for Congress. particularly in the
Northwestern States.
Would Force Philippine Question.
Senator Lodge seems anxious Il:
force the Philippine question forward
in some form for further considera-
ton. The bin. it will be recalled. was
tabled IN the Philippine Committee
several weeks ago, and IT was Their
thought that nothing more would be
heard of it at this session
