Staples. These reports with accom-
panying bill came from the House, in
that branch the majority report ac-
cepted and the bill passed to be en-
crossed. Mr.. Hamilton Of York moved
that the reports, with the accom-
panying bill, be tabled and assigned
for consideration Monday. March 90.
Mr.. WHEELER of Cumberland: Mr..
President, / should like to inquire Of
the Senator from York, through the
Chair, whether it Is not possible to dis
pose of that matter today. Some
other matters have been assigned for
Monday which are likely to provoke
considerable discussion and the session
will not begin until half-past four in
the afternoon. II we could clear up
some of these matters on the calendar
today. it would hasten adjournment.
Mr. STAPLES of Knox: Mr.. Presi-
dent, would say that / signed the
minority report and ! expect to discuss
il before this body. ! would be willing
to take it up tomorrow, but could not
do so today very well. ! am willing to
have it assigned for tomorrow or for
Monday
Mr.. WHEELER: Mr.. President, my
only purpose is to clear up some of the
matters which have accumulated on
the calendar; and there does not seem
to be enough matter specially assigned
for this morning to keep us busy, and
there are more than enough assigned
for next week to fill up the session. l
hope it will be assigned for tomorrow
rather than for the first of the week.
Mr. HAMILTON of York: l under
stand this Is a matter of good deal
of importance; and it is one that |
have not had time to investigate, and |
believe we should have time to
examine it might be assigned for
Tuesday / understand that we shall
have plenty of time before we come to
final adjournment. l assure the Presi-
dent and members Of the Senate that
! am in as much haste as anyone to
close up, because 1t Is getting near
planting time. hope the Senators
will grant me that time.

panying bill be tabled and assigned for
