WAsu1Nu1oS, D. c., March 1.-The now nov.
enuo bill was discussed tho greater portion Of

nuny obstacles. At II o'clock tonight ita
defeat Foems Imminent, AS au amendment has
bocn nddcd relative TO tho tax Of tobacco
III tho Committee OF tho Whole. and
will probably DO sustained II tho bin is reported
back to the Senate. Sonator Sllesn,an, Chair
man OF tho Finance Committee, was opposed to
the bill. Morrill, OF Vermont, took charge Of It.
and presented the reasons for its passage to Tho
Senate. lie urged tho Senate to pass tho bill
III il camo from tho llouss without an amend
mcnt and insisted that any amendment would
defeat It. 1lc claimed that tue Eoycn.le which It
II would rntbo il absolutely indispensable Ii
tho Government Is to respect ITS obligation.
Mr.. Sherman opposed tho Gill but said
that lo would not oppose nnv amendment
nor cmparrass tho Sonato In rcaching vote lll>-
on it. bu. should vote against ita passage. lie
thought tho President might, in liis discretion.
suspend work on public improvements whenever
tho condition of tho rnvcnuo required it. lTo
thought that work on public buildings should
stop rather thnn tho bill should pass. Tho
Thurman, denied that Tho public honor Is Inyoiy-
cd In tho sinklng-funti. Tbs Senators
REPRESENTING THE TOBACCO DISTRICTS
Insisted that tobacco alroady manufactured
should DO exempted from, TIC ,ncroased tax.
Mr.. Morton favored tho blll N1.. Logau made
ono OF the strongest against It. IIo objected 70
Tie great inequality Of tho tag. Ilc
tainted tho Senate With tho iaaolenco which had
characterized its action thus far, and aslicI
sc,ators how tloy would like to lneot their coi,-
stituN7tB after having accomplished practically
nothing but 10 increase taxation snd so OIL.
Aftor Logan had finished, John Sherman,
whom Morrill, had prolded with being
a weak-knood Republican, roso m made M olo-
queut apoech, which eurpriaed tho Senate. He
r1diculed tho mopatrositlcs Of the bill. showed
how unjustLy it bore upon tho Weas, and said he
hoped to SEQ It defeated. Tho Senate refused to
tablo tho bill by tic vote.
