NOW FOR BUSINESS
CONGRESS WILL BEGIN WORK IN
REAL EARNEST.
AL HANDS TO THE PL0W
House Calendar Well Filled, with
Canal Zone Government Case
First 70 Come Up.

ShlnEt0n.-COn8re8S Will De8ln
business In earnest this week. With
the Christmas holidays behind them
and with the preliminary ante-holiday
plans completed, both houses will
start in upon reconvening. with the
intention Of keeping their hands to
the pillow, to continue until 'the crop
il laid BY" which 1t is now believed
will take place In the early summer.
The senate is not 50 forward with its
work as is the house, and the former
body may experience didlculty In
finding something to do during the
first few days of its sitting. But the
house calendar is already well filled.
and as soon as the formalities per.
init, that body will get down to
serious business. Both houses will re-
convene at II o'clock Tuesday. but
the immediate announcement of the
recent death Of Senator McLaurin of
Mississippi will result in adjourn
ment of both for the day out of re-
spect to his memory. It is doubtful
also whether there will be quorum
on the first meeting day, SO that but
little business would probably be
transacted under any circumstances.
Wednesday will be canlendar day
in the house and that body again will
take up the Mann bill for the reor-
ganization of the government of 'the
Panama canal zone." It Is believed
this measure will be disposed Of in
one day and with 1t out Of the way
the house will attack the appropria'
ton bills.
The army supply bill is already on
the calendar and by the time 1t is
passed the Notifications will be ready
for consideration. Following the for
tifications measure will. come the
urgent deficiency, the agricultural and
the navy bills. Even the sundry civil
and the legislative bills are well
blocked out in committee. Indeed ap-
preparation legislation is further ad.
vanced in the house than ordinarily
at this season. and 1t is the opinion
of the experts that the supply bills
will be so turned out by the commit
tee as to render it possible for the
house to give almost continuous at
tention to them during the next two
months.
The senate committee on appropria-
tons will begin soon, the considera-
ton of the bill making appropriations
for the District of Columbia, which
already has passed the house and un-
til it is reported, the senate will &C.
cupy its time with the consideration
of comparatively unimportant meas
ures on the calendar. The state COM
mittees have not been so assiduous in
their attention to duty as have been
the committees of the coordinate
body, with the consequence that the
senate calendar is completely barren.
Much interest is manifested in both
houses in the two announcements
that presidents message on the Sher-
man antitrust law and the resolu-
tons of Senator Jones and Represent
alive Humphrey providing for an in
vestigation of the Interior depart
ment and the forest service will be
presented on Wednesday, the first
legislative day after reconvening.
