Deadlock ls llruken.
Wasmxoros, April 9.~—\\'ith the deadlock
in the house of representatives, and the plume-
pneumonia and Dakota statehood bills as un-
linnhed busiiwss in the senate, the proceed-
ings in conng during the week can be
briefly if not definitely foretold. It is gener-
ally bchevod that the deadlock will be broken
within a day or two, and that the floor of the
house will be cleared for the emcial orders
fixed by a report from the conmiitteeon mics,
and adopted several days ago.
Today. by special order, is District at ,
Columbia day in the house, but there is no
probability that the committee can get the
floor. Tomorrow was set aside for the com‘
mittee on Pacific railroads, which desires the
completion 0! the bill extending the Pacific
railroad indebtedness to the gov-crnutcnt, and
which is unfinished hirsute-5'4. The committee

doy night, doctoral that it will stand by and

the general land laws. Friday is private bill
day. Tuesday add Thursday evenings are

deadlock continue, nothing other than the
direct tax bill can at course be considered,
and the special ordain will be tor naught.

Management—A Big Assessment.
Chicano, April 9.—l)elections are new no
curring in the ranks of the Burlington strik-
ers, and fifty of the old engineers have gone
back to work. It looks now as though the
men will not Wait tor the strike to be do-
clarcd oil. but will pmceed to tlnd employ-
ment for themselves wherever they can, even
on the boycotted road. According to the
comtitutiou ol the Brotherhood a strike can
notbedeclaredotl'inside of six months un-
less every member of the grievance oom~
mitten given hb consent. In this case it is
impossible to get the consent of the members
of the Burlington grievance committee.
Mr. Arthur is expected tomorrow, and it
is probable he and Manager Jetl’rey, o! the
lllino'n Central, will go and see the Burling-
ton people. A final attempt [to adjust mat—
ters will then be made, and it in said that Mr.
Jetlrey has hopes that seine sort of a com-
promise can he arrived at.
An treatment of 85 upon each at theiO,l)U0
engineers and firemen belonging to the
Brotherhood throughout the country is to he
made this week to meetthe expenses of main-
taining theidle strikers. This sum at will,»
(II) will not last very long, for the full wages
of the strikers are to be paid, and over Slut),-
000 o! it will go toward paying the engineers,
whose wages average over “00 per month.
About 865,000 will be required to meet the
wants of the firemen. .
