The Tariff Hin in Caucus.

10y kfAbAtapA ~ stAD ~" PeN~Asi
WASHINGTON, My 2S.-The Democratic
caucus reassembed al s O'Clock this evening
with rather Il slim attendance. Mr.. Randall
was present. but Speaker Carlisle was not in
the chamber nor was SIR. Cox, chairman Of
the caucus, and Mr.. McCTeary, OF Kentucky,
presided. The greatest secrecy was mains
tanned as to the caucus proceedings, the reso-
luton OF non-intOrmatioD adopted saturday
evening beng more strictly observed than
on the previous occasion. Various door
Keepers were detailed 10 parade the
halls 10 discover whether the ubiquitous
reporter could Oyerhear the proceed
ings OF The caucus, and every effort
vas made to keep supreme silence. The nrst
few minutes OF the caucus were spent IN

New York, advocating no amendment that
the duty 90 cotton-bagging be liked NJ =
cents YARD instead OF Is per cent. dd Udlorem,
as proposed In the bill. Zoe am"ndment
was rejected, aud Mr.. Bliss announced his
intention Of pressing bis amendment IN toe
House. The question OF the duty which
should be placed upon works Of ART was neat
taken uD for consideration.
Mr.. Chapman, Of Michigan, opposed the
provision OF the bill which provides that
such articles shall be admitted free OF
duty. His tptfeh, when pToVoAeu mucn
applause, was devoted to the consideration
as to how the agricultural interests OF the
country would view the action OF the Demo-
cratic House In placing luxuries on The Tree
list.
Mr.. Belmont. Of New York, made an
earnest plea for the retention OF works OF
srt on the free list, but his appeal proved
uuagailing, and upon motion OF Me. Hoi'
msn, OF Indiana, works OF art were stricken
from the free list and the present duty re-
tained.
After the adoption Of this motion there did
not seem 10 be mneh method exhibited In
the trcstment OF amendments. which were not
eonsidered 10 the order which they we're in
tended for insertion IN the bill, but rather
according 10 the preferences and wishes OF
iadiyidual members. Nearly all OF these
members were prone to explain as length the
