poses That the Appropriation
Committee Visit Panama.

on the ground of the estimates for the

gress, who will nave charge of the prep
aration of the sundry civil bill, in which

lowing the adjournment last March He
believes ii will be to the best interests

committee having in charge the prepara-
ton of the sundry civil bill go to the

men who provide the appropriation and
the officials who spend 1t. and that 1t
