Washington Notes.

WASHINGTON, March THE house re-
port-under the decision of the chalrmrn,
OF the committee of the whole--on the tariff
commission bill must take its regular place
on the calendar, where it stands 80 in order
among the bills which must be disposed of
or lad aside before it is reached.
Advocates of the permanent construction
naval fund will probably resist any
attempt to have it set aside without consid-
eration and in view OF the fact that the op-
ponents of the tariff bill may demand the
yeas and nays on the setting aside of every
bill which precedes it on the calendar, the
prospect of an early discussion is not prom
lsing, unless the ways and means commit
tee can devise some way to obviate the me-
c!esslty OF passing oyerother bills preceding
u seriatim.
