This Week of Congress- Wasuinotox, Jan. 29. The educa tion bill remains the unfinished business of the senate for to-touiorrow. It is likely it will give place temporarily to the house bill making appropriations for agricultural experiment stations. 'If brought to vote before the end of the week it will probably be succeeded by the undervaluation or dependent pension bills. The urgent deficiency bill will bc- reportpd to the house in the beginning of the week and will probably occupj' the attention for a day or two. The Wil- kins notional bank bill stands first in the order of unfinished business, but if Wil- kins remains ill, it will probably give way to resolution assigning an unlimited period of time for the consideration of a large number of bills for the erection of public buildings.

On the 9th of February the committee will give a hearing to a deligation from the national temperance alliance on the bill to create a commission to inquire into the liquor traffic. Representative Camp bell said tonight that while he could not speak for the full committee, he person ally was not in favor of prohibition.
