S L WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The Sznate to-morrow will pass so quietly from the extraordinary session into the first regular session of the Fifty-eighth Con- gress that the change will scarcely .be realized. In accordance with the terms of Saturday's adjournment resolution the hour of meeting will be 11:30 a. m., when the usual morning business will be transacted. At 12 o'clock Senator Frye as president pro tem will nounce that as the hour for convening the regular session has arrived, the an- The regular routine of business then will be proceeded with as if there had been no interruption.

Much has been gained by the special session and the work of the regular session will be ad- vanced fully two weeks, as ordinarily | it requires the time up to the adjourn- | the organization of the House. Now it jonly remains for the committees, the {last of which was completed yester- day, to meet and organize, when the with general legislative work. { | It will not be possible to pass the general appropriation bills before the | recess is taken and some of the publie | leaders hope to accomplish this. The | clerical work on the legislative and ex- | ecutive appropriation bills has been ad- | vanced to a point where their early | constderation by the committee can be | undertaken. It is expected that Hem- enway, chairman of the Appropriations Committee, will publish the work of his committee as rapidly as possible. Pending reports from committees, the Houge will take up such matters as may be brought before it for consid- eration by unanimous consent, but the real work will not begin until com- mittees have had time| to act on meas- ures referred to them. It is under- stood by the members of the House | that the President’s message will be | sent to Congress to-morrow. Its read- |ing will be the principal event in the ‘House. It is expected that the Christ- | mas recess will be taken about De- | cember 22 and that on the assembling work in deep earnest preparatory to as early a final adjournment as possible. The death of Representative Burke of Pennsylvania will be announced to the House, perhaps to-morrow, and the res- journment as a mark of respect. e e We have all the new pictures and frames for the holiday trade now on ex- Beautifully impressive were the me- morial services held yesterday after- noon by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks’' Lodge No. 3 at the Cali- fornia Theater in the presence of a gathering of ladies and gentlemen that filled the b rflowing.

Nieto then delivered the in- vocation and was followed by the sing- ing of Gounod's “Ave Maria,” by Miss genia Barker, accompanied by the violin and harp, played by Mr. and Mrs. John Marquardt. Judge M. T. Dooling of Hollister, a | prominent member of the Order of | Eiks, then delivered the oration on the | dead, his address being a scholarly composition and given with depth of feeling and emotion, At the close of the oration, the or- chestra rendered Sulltvan’s ‘“‘Lost | Chord,” the solemn strains filling the | building with heartful melody that welled and throbbed. Wallace Brownlow then sang Sulll- van's superb composition, “Passing Hence,” in a most artistic manner. George P. Webster read Tennyson’s “In Memoriam” and Miss Etta O'Brien’s splendid contralto volce was heard in Marston’s aria, “My God and Father, While I Stray. JUDGE MURASKY SPEAKS. Judge F. J.
