The thrf-:iu-ned extra session of Coa--r- has ht-eu the chief subject of spec uUli ju durintr the week on Capitol hill. There is a (inference of opinion as to whether it will be called or not. Sena tors arc generally of the belief that there need be no extra session, while mem bers of the House think it cannot be i averted. A Senator remarked to me j yesterday that he never in all his expe rience in Congress, saw the appropria- j tions in better shape, and that they could get them all out cf the way by j the fourth of March. Half and hour afterward I heard a Representative de- ' clare that the appropriations were in 1 very bad condition and he did not see how they could be passed in time to avoid an extra session. Then there is an impression among the Democrats that ihe Republicans are working secretly to force an extra session, whiie the Republicans believe there is aclique of Democrats who are trying to bring about the same result. The question was sprung so unexpectedly that many Congressmen are alarmed at the proba ble frustration of their well laid plans for the coming summer. Senators would be less inconvenienced than members by a call of the forty-ninth Congress. Many of them live in Wash ington, and would under any circum stances" spend the greater part of their summer here. The dynamite bill died a quiet death, the dynamite sympathizers were de prived of an opportunity to declare their views on the floor of Congress; and the expected quarrel was avoided, and the House of Representatives got out of tho dvnamite business without committing itself in any way. The House foreign affairs committee voted that it is beneath the dignity of the HouRe to pass ft dynamit re80iution similar in tone to that passed by the Senate. It behooves the Senate to look to its dignity after this rebuke. Ike 1 upper cnamoer nas oeen consiuereu very strong in that line, neretotore, while the House has had a bad name for easy morals random manners. Another House committee has just taken action that will be verv disap pointing to gentlemen who contested seats in previous Congresses, and who lia hied claims to be remunerated for the exnse of their contests. There are many of these claims, and many of their owners are now in the city, think ing to get them through Congress in the hurry of the closing days of the session. The committee ha decided to report only those, claims where the contests i were for seats in the present House. j Mr. Cleveland's friends and advisers, are expecting and hoping that he will announce his Cabinet within the pres ent week. They think it best that the hopes, anxieties and disappointments OI Pir " Bnoui? De over wun 48 800n t. , j r- -i' arations may be made by the fourth of Jlarch. Mr. Cleveland intimated to a ci-rtain statesman that he would make his slate public by the twenty -second of j February and that all the names would be announced at once. All politicians in Washington think Mr. Bayard will be the next Secretary of State. A great deal of interest is manifested in the work of preparing the new pen sion building for the inaugural festivi ties and many have expressed doubt as to whether it would be ready by the fourth. But one of the managers said vest rday. "they need not fear, every t:i:iiir will ready m time.
