No Adjournment Until Congress Has
Completed Its Job.

Washington, June 27.--Iongress will
stay in session until its work is fin
ished. This is the dictum of Speaker
Cannon and his lieutenants, and is be-
ing emphasized at this time to counter
act any impression that the pure food
bill. at least, might go over until the
next session. There is also trouble on
the meat inspection bill and the ''tie
up" on the railroad rate bill indicates
delay. The immigration bill is also in
conference, as are several of the appro-
priation bills. All of these things must
be worked out without any date of adj
journment being set, according to the
decision Of the house leaders
The meat inspection amendment TO
the agricultural bill probably will be
returned TO the senate and house in
dsa greement. The conferrees twice
had 1t under discussion and the indica-
tons are that the differences in regard
to the payment for inspection by the
packers or by the government, Or
whether the date Of inspection must be
placed on cans of meat, are irreconciIa-
