Business i'm the House.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The Star last
evening speaking of business in the House
Of Representatives, says The Speaker
and other members of the Committee on
Rules, had an informal talk YESTERDAY
morning concerning the disposal of other
business Of the House that is being showed
aside by the long tariff discussion.
il was concluded that nothing
could be made in the way of setting aside
days for special orders until il was known
Just when the general discussion of the
tariff should end. II the debate goes on
without interruption, they know just when
the seventeen days will expire, but the
time may be broken in upon.
1t was the general idea that the legisla-
tive appropriation bill would be called up
at the sam. time pending the tariff dis
cussion MIR Randall, however, has failed
to make any move so as TO interrupt the
debate, and ii is understood that he has
made up his mind not to do so Of his own
yolition. Just at present he is confined to
his room with an attack of sickness. but II
he were present il is not his purpose 10
interrupt the tariff by calling up any
measure
II the Speaker and Mr. Mills think IL de-
sirable that the Legislative bill should pas
without waitirg for the tariff to be disposed
OF, add insist upon taking it up, he will not
objset. but he will not do anything that
mish sht be held to give color TO the stories
abe ut his holding back appropriation bills
for the purpose of an ntagonizing the Ways
and Means Committee. He is determined
not 70 antagoniZe them with any measure,
10 emphasize the fact that it has never
been his purpose to follow such tactics.
Next Monday is individual suspension
day. The Speaker will recognize Mr..
Blanchard if lie desires TO again attempt TO
pass the river and harbor bill, under sus-
pension of the rules.
