                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. BENNETT. Madam President, the Senate will be in a period for 
morning business until 10 a.m., with the time equally divided between 
the two leaders or their designees. Following morning business, the 
Senate will return to the Estrada nomination, with the time equally 
divided between the chairman and ranking member of the Judiciary 
Committee or their designees. At 10:30, the Senate will vote on the 
motion to invoke cloture on this important nomination. If cloture is 
not invoked on the nomination, the Senate will resume consideration of 
the Moscow Treaty. Additional amendments are expected to the resolution 
of ratification. Therefore, Senators should anticipate votes throughout 
the day. The Senate will complete action on the Moscow Treaty this 
week.


                           order of procedure

  I ask unanimous consent that the time allocated for morning business 
be equally divided between the majority leader and the minority leader 
or their designees.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Is there objection?
  Mr. REID. Reserving the right to object.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Nevada.
  Mr. REID. We had a majority and minority member coming over this 
morning. They are not coming now, so for anyone who has had a desire to 
come speak and has not had the opportunity, this would be the 
opportunity to do that until 10 today.
  Mr. BENNETT. That is my understanding.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
