Program in the House Monday. NO ANNOUNCEMENT OF DEATHS UNTIL AFTER THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE HAS BEEN READ. “The regular order of business in the House on. Monday next,” said Mr. Harry Smith, journal clerk Of the House, in reply to an inquiry of THE STAR representative, “will be the calling of the Houge to order at 12 o'clock by the Speaker, who will direct the roll of mem- bers to be called to ascertain whether or not a quorum is present. When that is done the members elect are sworn in and the call is completed, If a quorum aj a resolu- ton directing the clerk to notify the Senate of that fact Is adopted, and another resolution also adopted providing for the appointment of & com- mittee of three ou the part of the House to join Such committee us inay be appointed on the part Of the Senate to wait on the President and notity him that a quorum of the two houses has assem- bled and that Congress was ready_to recetve any communication he had to make. ‘The House then Usually takes a ‘recess for halt or three- quarters of an hour to enable the committee to discharge that duty, their report 4s usually followed by the appe: denvs secretary with the message. ‘The Speaker Immediately Tays the message before the House, And it 1s then read by the clerk; after that resolu: Uons providing for printing the message, for extra coples, fixing the dally hour of meeting, ete., are then adopted: ‘The call of states and territories for bills and resolutions 1s then the regular order {nd ts usually proceeded with untess, a8 happens be the case, there are announcements to be made of the deaths of members during the recess, In the second session of the last Con- gress the deaths of Messrs, Duncan, of Pennsyl- Vania, and Evins, of South Carolina, were an- nounced, and the House adjourned without a call Of states; and it is quite likely the same course will be pursued on Monday, ‘Two members died during the recess—Messrs. Beach and Arnot—and their ‘deaths will be announced and three new members will De sworn in, viz Mr. Cox, in place Of Mr, Pulitzer; Mr. Bacon, in place of Mr. Beach, and Mr, Rusk, ih place of Mr. Cole.” ‘4 CONUNDRUM. “What will be the program for the balance ot the week?” was asked. “That is conundrum that I give up immedi- ately,” was the reply. “There are numerous spe- Glut acs such as the, rve ship bill’ the, ‘Oklo- hama bill,’ the ‘electoral count bill,’ the bill to in- crease thé eficiency of the army, ‘the bill amend- ing the Thurman sinking fund act applying to the Union Pactite rallroad, the bill providing tor. thie issue of small biils, while the committees on post offices and post roads, foreign affairs, territories and labor have special assignmnentsof days. Asrule 27 provides that all bills, resolutions and reports which originated in the House and remained undetermined at the close of the last preceding session ‘shall bein order for action’ only after six days from the commencement of a second ses ston, it Is probable that the week will be consumed by existing spectal orders and the consideration of a general appropriation bill, if one 1s ready.” ORDER OF EUSINESS IN THE BENATR MONDAY. ‘The Senate will meet at noon on Monday next, and after prayer by the chaplain, the two new Senators, Messrs, Wiiliams, of California, and Che- ney, of New Hampshire, will be sworn in, Next a resdlution to meet dally at 12 o'clock will be adopted, and that will be followed by the audoption of resolutions for Ue appointment of a committee to Inform the House that a quorum of the Senate ts assembled and ready to proceed to business and a committee to act with a similar one from the House to inform the President that Congress ts ready for business. A rocess will then be taken to await the report of the latter com- mittee. It 13 believed that the President Will have his message ready for prompt transmis. sion. The Senate will receive and read the mes. sage and then adjourn out of respect. to the memory of the late Senator Pike. Ag to what leg- islative business the Senato will first. give {ts attention to tt 1s next to impossible to indicate, as it isa body that follows the judg- Ment of the hour on such matters, ‘There are a humber of special orders coming over from the last session, among them an act toconstruct a railroad and telegraph line frown the Missouri river to the Pacific ocean; the resolution to consider executive nominations in open session; an act to fortelt the land grants of the New Orleans and Baton Rouge Tallroad; an act to prohibit members of Congress from acting as attorneys for corporations, ete.

In Telation to the open session resolution Senator Platt sald to a Stan reporter this afternoon: “It has aright to consideration next Wednes- day, and as tar as T am concerned I intend to have it considered. “I shall insist upon it, and un- less the Senate votes otherwise, that résolution will be considered next Wednesiity. THE SENATE WING of the Capito! has been thoroughly overhauled and brightened up, inside and out. All the facings in the corridors have been repainted, and the metal stair railings and ornaments shine like mirrors. In the Senate chamber the desks have all been reno vated, and new coats of paint given to the facings. ‘The President's room has received special attention. ‘The large pler glasses have been encased in new frames of tu: re character and modern design. ‘fhe mirror over the mantel ‘has a new frame corresponding with those of the pier glasses, and new cornices of the same massive design as the frames have been placed over the windows. Inthe Vice President's room every thing has been cleaned and brightened, but no new furniture has been adéed. ‘The reveption and marble rooms have had due attention, and look bright and cheerful. Downstairs the folding force has been removed to the sub-basement, and the stationery st transferred to tke former folding rooms, The room of the committee on agricul- ture has been enlarged by removal of the middle tion of the partition wall which separated it am the old stationery room. New furniture has been put tp, and ft fs now belleved that the com- mittee will have room enough for all its purposes, All the paintings and statuary have been carefully cleaned. ‘THE TWO NEW SENATORS, Messrs, Williams, of California, and Cheney, of ‘New Hampshire, have been assigned seats in the back row of desks on the republican side, gis eee THE STREETS AND ROADS. Capt. Griffin’s Report of the Work ot the Year. THE LAST OF THE WOODEN PAVEMEENTS—FUTURE APPROPRIATIONS TO BE USED ON NEW WORK—A FLAN FOR KEKPING UP THR COUNTY ROADS, Capt. Eugene Griftin, assistant to Engineer Com- missioner Ludlow, in charge of the department re- lating to pavements, street improvements, county Toads, sweeping and repairs of streets and alleys, construction and repairs of bridges and generally all surface work, has submitted his annual report to Col. Ludlow. A summary of operations and es- tmates shows that the work in Capt. Griffin’s de- partment during the last fiseal year cost. $513,- 504.69; the current appropriations are $578,660, and the estimates for the next fiscal year amount, to $854,200, tucluding 405,000 for “work on sun- dry avenues and replacement of pavements,” and $00,000 for “opening. and extending suburban streets,” under Which head the current appropria- ‘on 13 $30,000. CONDITION OF THE STREETS. A table is given showing the condition of streets on Juiy 1st, 1886. This shows that there are sixty-seven square miles of concrete (asphalt or coal tar) pavements, 21.15 miles stone block pave- ent, 18.08 talles ough stone pavement, #19 miles macadam pavement, 3453 intles gravel Pavement, 0.22 tnlles wooden pavement and 86.40 iniles of streets unimproved. "The old wood pave- ment has been entirely replaced with other pave- Tents, with the exception of a small strip of 7,000 Square yards on New Jersey avenue, be- tween New York avenue and 0 street northwest, ‘THE NEXT LMPORTANT STEP in this class of improvements will be the replace- ment of the old rubble and cobble pavements (639,004 square yards). Indiana and Dunbarton avenues, 14th, 43, Hand Gth streets are on the schedule for aprovement luring the present fecal year, But ru ements, however disagres able, are. preferable to nome, "and the. erect rapid extension of the ‘sity may ‘make the laying oF Rew pavements of more pressing importance for the next few years than the replacement of rubble on the more outlying streets."
