                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, we are going to be in a period of morning 
business for a while today. We have a matter that is on the calendar 
dealing with railroad antitrust. It is pretty clear most Senators agree 
there is a compromise that has been worked on, on a bipartisan basis. 
We will see if we can have a vote on cloture vitiated, and we will go 
directly to the matter.
  I have spoken to the Republican leader on how we are going to proceed 
on the tobacco legislation. It is not quite clear yet. We need to move 
forward and protect the ability to offer amendments. If consent is 
granted on the railroad bill, we would extend morning business 
throughout the day.
  There will be no votes today. Senators should expect one tomorrow 
around 11 a.m.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Republican leader is 
recognized.
