REST after JULY 10
Leaders Plan to Clean Up. Leg
islative Program by
That Time.

Washington. May 7.-Probablo ad-
Journment OF congress by July 10 was
predicted by Senator Kern. democratic
leader of the Senate. after a White
House conference at which the presi-
dent and Senators Kern. Hoke smith
and O'Gorman discussed the legislative
program. Senator Kern said he be-
lieved tho Panama canal tolls reneal
bin would he disposed of within two
weeks and that the administration
anti trust program will be completed
before adjournment.
1t was practically determined to con-
iine the Legislative program to passing
the bill to repeal free tolls. the trust
Legislation and the appropriation bills.
Rural credits legislation will probably
go over While those in the conference
would not say that 1t was the purpose
to sidetIack rural credits for this ses-
sion, 1t was made plain that 1t would
not be allowed to stand in the way Of
an carly adjournment.
In view Of the tangle OF views over
this subject it will doubtless be forced
over to next winter. 1t was brought
out at the conference that congress is
anxious to end the session regardless of
the party.

ject i'm compensation for the destruc-
ton by fire of his sawinil during the
l.econte revolution. The ultimatum ex
pires at 6 o'clock Thursday morning.
The British demand is supported by
the presence here of the British cruiser
Suffolk. The payment of this sum OF
money had previously been ordered by
court of arbitration.
Immediately after the presentation OF
the British demand the members of the
chamber of deputies and the senate
met in Joint session The deliberations
were marked by great excitement.
Senator Cauvin bitterly reproached the
cabinet for not being able to meet the
situation. There are no funds in hands
with which to make the payment de-
manded.
After a futile session congress de-
cided to go into separate session in
order to permit the deputies and the
