Immigration bill to stay unfinished business in Senate
Washington reports the immigration measure will remain in unfinished business status in the Senate until final vote. A House bill permitting free homesteads on public lands in Oklahoma Territory for actual settlers is likely to be voted on without delay. Other agenda items include Morrill’s library resolution, Cuban affairs, and actions on Atlantic & Pacific Railway foreclosure rights. The District of Columbia day and military appropriations are noted for upcoming discussions with a potential long recess into New Year’s Day.
