SLOW PROGRESS OF THE REVENUE BnL.


WAsmNGTON, July 23.-Ihe Senate began the
consideration of the Revenue bill ten days ago, and
last night had only disposed of two OF the SIX see
tons. Beside the remaining four sections of the
bill there are about thirty printed amendments
while fresh amendments proposed to nearly
every liue rs the consideration OF the bl proceeds
At the rate of progress thus far made the bill could
not reach the House before September l, and that
body will have run away from it long before that
time. Nine-tcnths of the talk comes from the
Democratic side. much of IT being Irrelevant and
more OF it useless. 1t is impossible to change results
by argument at this late stage OF the proceedings
and the measure. with all its amendments, might bc
voted upon tomorrow as iniclhg,ntlv as a month
hence. The Democrats, by their speeches, their
amendments and their votes, have shown their
anxiety TO reduce the tax upon tobacco and

for several reasons. When the present Controller

has been 10 complaint thai the Controller has neg
lected his official duties and his opinions on Ques-
tlons OF law and regulations have not only been
more frequent but also mere yoluminOus than those
of his predecessors But it appears that he has
been unable 10 carry forward all his WORK himself
and has been compelled to use much clerical assist

For some time clerk belonging to his Office has
been absent on leave without pay, III the West, on

voted to his private business correspondence and to
clerical work upon the books which hc ia preparing

have been 50 employed for some time past is Mrs.

they hal received no extra pay for the additional

1t is said that an effort was made TO secure some
extra com mpensation for them from Congress, but
that il failed IN the new appropriation bill. Two
