WASHINGTON. Feb. 14.-It now seems probable
that the Senate will pass Tariff bill before 1t adj

essentially from the bill as it now stands.
Then there will be an opportunity
for amendment to the text Of the BILL and it is TO be
expected that the struggles over metals, tobacco
and salt will be renewed and that number OF
amendments not yet heard of will b. proposed

THE NAMES OF TIE MEMBERS PROBABLY TO BE
SENT IN TO-DAY


IBY TELEGRAPH FO THE TRI8USgJ
WASHINGTON. Feb. Alt Is expected and hoped
that the President will send in he names Of the
Civil Service Commissioners tomorrow. mas uch
the names We been counted on for this week
and the President will leave here the afternoon
train for New YORK in order to attend Ex-Governor
Morgan's tunrril. There seems to be profound
ignorance on the part of COngressmen regarding
the elections the President will probably make.
One likely to be informed said to-day that
he did not think Jacob ID. Cox would be appointed.
Mr. Eaton commissioner and Mr.. Burt as
Chief Examiner are the only appointments def
ntely expected and that of the Chief Examiner
will probably have to be made by understand
ing between the President and the Commission,
that poi tion of the bill giving the Commission the
power of appointing him being regarded as uncon-
stIutiOna
The grading of Treasury employees provided for
by the bill has already been done by the Depart
ment, so lar as it can be done. There is evidently
great amount of detail to be adus ed in beginning
the system, and speedy action both by tle President
and Senate seems very desirable.
