                  ORDERS FOR WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 2001

  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that when the 
Senate completes its business today, it adjourn until the hour of 9 
a.m. on Wednesday, July 25. I further ask unanimous consent that on 
Wednesday, immediately following the prayer and the pledge, the Journal 
of proceedings be approved to date, the morning hour be deemed expired, 
the time for the two leaders be reserved for their use later in the 
day, and there be a period for morning business until 10 a.m. with 
Senators permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes each with the 
following exceptions: Senator Hutchison of Texas, 9 to 9:30; Senator 
Durbin, or his designee, 9:30 to 10.
  Further, I ask unanimous consent that at 10 a.m. the Senate resume 
consideration of the Transportation appropriations bill.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, there is also the possibility that we 
may move to the nominations of those who have been on the Executive 
Calendar now since the early part of May, the Treasury nominees Nos. 
59, 60, 159, and 161. I have had a number of consultations with the 
Republican leader about those nominees. That also is a possibility. He 
has been discussing the matter with colleagues in his caucus, and we 
may have more to report with regard to those nominees at a later time.
  Madam President, if there is no further business to come before the 
Senate, I yield the floor.
