which is to occupy at least the first
half of the week on the revenue meas
ure will be unrestricted. Mr. Payne,
in charge of the bill, estimates that

four days. After the Philippine bill
has been disposed of, the statehood bill
which the committee on territories

brought forward Immediately and that
question discussed and acted upon
without interruption.
No appropriation measures will be
taken up until the statehood bill has
been disposed of, but the regular sup

is supposed to have fallen in, and for
several hundred feet below the hole,
but he quit the work last night and
