By mall to any part of the United BUMS TUESDAY, FEB. 24, 181. to NBABtMO THE END. Only aifht fill working days re taala of the Fifty-first Congress, and : front bow natll the 4th of March the proceedings in both branches of that body will doubtless be marked by the baste that is usual in the closing days of a short session. The chief v effort In both Houses will be to se cure action on the appropriation bills, of which but two-the Army and Fortifloations have yet become . !awa. The status of the remaining appropriation bill is as follows : The Kara! bill waits approval of the oonfsrenoe report by the ITouse; the Pension. Distriot of Columbia, and Military Academy bills are la con ference; the Diplomatlo and Consu lar bill Is awaiting an order for con ference by the House; the Sundry Civil bill has been reported by the Senate oommittee, and Is on the Ben ate calendar; the Legislative and the Indian Appropriation bills are in the fionate committee, and the Tost of fice, Agricultural, and General De ficiency bills await the action of the House. It is expected that the Senate will devote IU time daring the week mainly to the appropriation bills, be ginning with the Sundry Civil bill so-morrow, and following with the Legislative and Indian appropria uon bills. These unpostponable measures and similarly urgent con ference reports on other approprla--; Uon bills are likely to leave but little time for action on other measures on the programme arranged by the Re publican oauous. The Nicaragua Canal bill is the unfinished business in this category, and although it will be laid aside to-morrow in favor of the Sundry Civil bill, Its friends are confident that it will retain its position as against other miscella neous business until brought to a final rote. The miscellaneous meas ures following it on the canons pro gramme are the Pure Food bill and the Conger Lard.the Army Reorgani sation bill, the Inter-State Com merce bill, tke bill to transfer the revenue marine service to the Navy Department, and the Paciflo Rail road Funding bill. The caueus of the Republican Sen ators to eloot a President pro tern succeed Mr. Iagalls will probably bo held to-day, aud it Is likely to result in the choioe of Senator Frye, o Maine. lie has made no canvass for the place, although many of hi friends have done good work for him. He is particularly equipped for the place beoause he was chair man of the committee that thorough ly revised the Honate rules in the Forty-olghth Congress, and prepar ed the code at present In existence. The only other aspirant for the honor is Senator Hoar, who seeks election as a vindication for his management of the elections bill and as a reward for the work which he did in Conner Uon with that measure, and for the contumely whioh has beon heaped upon him. Senator Spooner Is his earnest champion, but it 2s one of the humorous incidents of the light that Senator Sawyer, the other Wis consin Sonator, Is just as enthusias tic for Frye. When the choice of the caucus is made one of the Wis consin Senators is sure to go down with a defeated candlnate. The spot in Rome where Nero com mitted suicide is said to have bon discovered. It is on the rinclan Hill and was identified by tho discovery of a stone with an inscription fixing the looation of the villa whore it 1 known the deed was done, An Indianapolis church member who subscribed to a church building fund attempted to writrirle out of it by claiming that the contract was il legal as it was made on Sunday, but the court has decided that he must pay up.

Washington speoial Philad Times: Senator Gorman will be In the race for the Democratic nomina tion for the Presidency, and Mary land will lend a solid delegation to the convention for him, Ono of the local papers here last nitrht nrluted a story purporting to eomo to from Congresiman Rusk, of Maryland, in men ne is aucirea to have stated that Senator Gorman was not iu the race, and that Maryland would send a Cleveland delegation to the con vention. The article also stated that Congressman Rusk had been instruct ed to manage the boom for Clove land. To-day Mr. Rusk took occa sion to dony the story in toto. He nald thatsuch publication was unau thorlfed.and that he had never made such a statement. Mr. Rnsk also said that while Senator Gorman had not announced hlmsolf as a caudi date for the nomination, there was llttio doubt in his mind that ho would take it were it offered him He added that he thought the full strength of the Maryland dedication would be thrown to Senator Gorrnun, and that in tho event of his runniDg he would make a strong candidate.
