SIEGE OVER FORECLOSURE Adjournment of Congress Does Not Depend Entirely on Tariff. PACIFIC RAILWAYS TO BE DISCUSSED Harris Resolution is to Be Forced to a Vote Before the Extra Session is Brought to a Close. WASHINGTON, July 19.-(Special Telegram)-Senator Thurston began his speech today on the Harris resolution and doubts whether he will be able to finish the same before the conference report on the tariff bill is called up. Senator Allen said today that he seriously doubted if congress would be ready to adjourn on the passage of the tariff measure, as he thought the senate desired to take a vote on the Harris resolution before adjournment. There are indications that an attempt to filibuster will be made by democrats to defeat consideration of the conference report on the tariff bill until an agreement is made to bring the Harris resolution to a vote at this session. Friends of the reorganization of the Union Pacific profess great confidence of ability to beat the resolution if it should come to a vote this session. Senator Thurston has seen the first assistant postmaster general relative to Increasing the number of letter carriers at the South Omaha postoffice and received assurances that favorable action to this end will be taken at an early date. Papers preparatory to the appointment of John Jenkins of Omaha to the position of consul at San Salvador were mailed him today.
