Senate schedules clash over Philippine question and appropriations
The Senate will split time between the Philippine issue and appropriations this week with a midweek diversion to the Clark case. Wellington and Teller will speak on the Beer resolution and Philippine question, joined by Pettigrew and Turner, while other speeches are expected. The Philippine bill seems unlikely to pass as opposition aims to answer Spooner before adjournment. Sundry civil appropriation faces 2-3 more days, then general deficiency and military academy bills remain. Adjournment plans target June 6 but may shift to June 9 or 11 as conferees review multiple appropriation bills. Montana senatorial contest likely referred to privileges and elections committee, with Clark election legality unresolved on the calendar.

Leaders push limited agenda amid anti-trust bill uncertainties
Indications are that none of them save the anti-trust bill and resolution will be considered. Friday and Saturday are to be devoted to their consideration under special rules. The friends of the Others, however, are active, aggressive and insistent, and some of them may be successful. But the programme of the leaders does not go much beyond driving through the appropriation bills, the passage of the anti-trust legislation and the cleaning up of a few odds and ends.
