tariff bill would assume definite shape be-
fore the 25th instant, and that there was
very little hope that ii could be laid before
the full committee in time Tor action and

in the iron and steel schedule and are
unable TO agree upon che enlargement Of

articles have been placed on the free list
and then taken off. The chairman of the
