                                PROGRAM

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the Senate 
completes its business today, it stand in adjournment until the hour of 
10:30 a.m., Monday, September 9, further that following the prayer, the 
Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the morning hour be deemed 
to have expired, and the time for the two leaders be reserved for their 
use later in the day, and that the Senate immediately turn to the 
consideration of the conference report to accompany H.R. 3230, the 
Department of Defense authorization bill, as under the previous order 
that had been agreed to.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. On Monday, the Defense conference report will be considered 
under the unanimous consent agreement that limits debate to a total of 
5 hours. I now ask unanimous consent that at the hour of 3:30 p.m. on 
Monday there be a period for morning business with Senator Daschle or 
his designee in control of the time from 3:30 to 4:30 and Senator 
Coverdell or his designee in control of the time between 4:30 and 5:30.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. I want to remind my colleagues, there will be no rollcall 
votes on Monday. The next rollcall vote will take place on Tuesday, 
September 10 at 2:15 p.m. Those votes will be first on the adoption of 
the DOD. authorization conference report which will have been debated 
during the day on Monday, followed by passage of the Defense of 
Marriage Act, to be followed by 30 minutes of debate and passage for 
action on the employment nondiscrimination bill. Following those votes 
on Tuesday, the Senate will turn to consideration of the Treasury-
Postal Service appropriations bill and those votes can be expected then 
or votes to occur on amendments and on that appropriations bill later 
in the day on Tuesday.
