After a final day of double pressure
congress adjourned Saturday night
until December with a remarkable
record of work and all factions claim
ing the greater part of the credit.
The president's annual message
covered the whole legislative field.
The program which he especially
urged contained about eighteen meas
ures, of which six were adopted. The
regulars claim cred.t for everything
done that was mentioned In his mes
sage. The Insurgents and democrats
see the results far differently. The
railroad bill, the main issue of the ses
sion, as adopted, bore practically no
semblance to the original Taft-Wlck-
ersham bill, the Insurgents claiming
that the president tad nothing left
of It but the commerce court.
The great bulk of the work was
done in the last month, and a very
Important part during the last week.
In the early half of the session the
house was not industrious and the
senate did practically nothing at all.

The amount of the continuing ap

was about $160,90,000. It Is safe to
say that It will not be less for the
next fiscal year, and the grand total
therefore will aggregate at least $1,-054,000,000.
