Two Appropriation Bills
Now Due From the
House.
NOTHING DEFINITE so FAR
Special Effort Would Posi-
bly, Make Upper House
Finish Next Week.

The Senate Republican steering COM
uittee met this forenoon at the commit
Tee room of Senator Allison for its first
session i'm the capacity of Sitting com
Tittee of the National Legislature to
begin shaping affairs FOR the ending Of
the session
The committee consists of Senator
Allison. chairman. who was not able to
be present on account of Illness: Sena-
tors Hale. Spooner. Aldrich. Cullom.
Lodge Elkins. kean. Perkins. Bev-
criGg". and Clarke Of Wyoming
After long discussion OF the legisIa-
tive situation the committee agreed that
it is impossible at present definitely to
fix an adjournment date. Two of the
appropriation bills have not yet come
10 the Senate from the House and this
fact together with the uncertainty about
the meat inspection legislation and the
disposition Of the conference report on
tie rate bin makes it impossible ac-
cuvateIy To estimate the time necessary
for concluding the business Of the ses-
sion.
IL IS stated that the business Of the
Senate is in excellent condition, and
that with "a special effort it would prob
ably be possible for that body 10 ad-
journ the latter part OF next week. The
steering committee. however. did ont at
tempt 10 fix any date.
No Action on Smoot This Session.
With the consent of Senators Burrows
and Dubois. il was agreed by the man
ayers that the Smoot case shall go over
until next session. tt was pointed out
that it VIII he utterly impossible 10 take
a vote on the case except after u long
discussion. and the auu-SmOOt leaders
were finally induced TO Withdraw their
insistence on the consideration at this
session
The steering committee decided. how
ever that a vote must be taken at this
session on the Panama canal measure.
because If this should be denied the
threatened rider TO the sundry civil bill
might be offered. providing for a sea
level canal As IL is, the Senate viii
probably pass the bill providing for a
sea-level ditch. and II viii go over to
Tho next session Tor the consideration
of the House
Meat Inspection Bill May Fail.
The possibility that meat inspection
legislation may yet fail. so far as this
session is concerned. was indicated by
Jhe attitude of the managers after their
meeting 1t was stated that if the in
specuon bill passes the House by an
emphauc vote, and IN q form which
seems Ecn/Tally satisfactory TO the in
tercstS involved il will be given =,
chance for vote in the Senate.
VIII Dispose of Rate Bill.
The railroad rate and Statehood con-
ference reports Will. of course. be dis
Icsed Of, bat the suudry civil bin VIII
not reach the Senate before the close
Of this week at the best. II IS a lengthy
and important measure. and the Senate
committee is already working on il. bur

Quire considerable time next week. The
