DID THEY ADJOURN SAME DAY7
According to Record. House Quit June
20, and Senate June 80.


Washington, D. c.. July 4.-The two
houses of congress did not adjourn on
the same day, according to the record,
and there Is much commotion here,
many persons fearing the validity of
the last days legislation may be af-
fected.
The journal of the house shows that
that body adjourned on June 30, while
the senate journal shows that the up
per branch adjourned on June 80.
This arose from the fact that when
the house convened on the Goth it was
still proceeding under the legislative
day of the goth, as result of having
taken recess on the night of the
29th
Mr.. Courts, clerk of the house COM
mittee on appropriations, said that a
similar case arose some years ago and
that the comptroller of the treasury
decided that the seeming difference in
the dates of adjournment was a legis-
lative fiction and not ., fact
