Baltimore sun Special.
WAsHIasToN, March lathe tobacco
men are very much annoyed by remark
made to-day by q member Of the ways
and means committee to tho effect that
there is no certainty about the repeal Of
the tobacco tax during the present CON-
grcss. According to one of she Leading
Republican members of the committee,
the repeal of the tobacco tax will will de-
pend largely upon tho scope of the tariff
bill. Thus far the committee has not
seriously considered the tobacco ques-
ton, owing to the uncertainty that at
taohes to the tariff problem. While the
latter subject is under confederation the
committee is unable to determine
whether or not the finances Of the gov
eminent will bear reduction nr total
abolition of the tobacco tex. In the Ian
guage OF western Republican, the ma
jority in Congress are "bstween the devil
and the deep sss." The Republican
party stands pledged before the county
to repeal of the tobacco tax, and also TO
increased pensions. At the present rate
of public expenditure the ire ,sury sur
plus will soon be wiped ont; hence 1t ia
difficult to Hea how both of these pledges
can be redeemed. One stands In the way
OF the other, and ia consequence the Re-
publican leaders fnd themselves in an
extremely awkward attitude.

A STRIKING DESIGN,
Description ofthe Monument Which
Is to Mark Grants Tomb.

John II. Duncan, whose design has been
accepted and who has been appointed archi-
tect for the Grant Monument Association,
presented O statement to the Executive
Committee, which is an exposition of the
general subject as we'll as description of his
own design. Init he says:
"As conceive it. the problem is to pre-
duce an edihce. which shall be unmistakably
q monumental tomb from every point of
view it may be seen, while as to its accessor-
les it shall contain q grand memorial hall
and depressed mortuary chamber with
double sarcophagus, where will repose the
mortal remains of General Grant and his be-
loved wife. In striving to solve this problem,
I have provided for certain portions of the
main structure to be built from time to time,
with the amount OF money In hand, and pro-
vided that such parts as are finished shall
give the appearance Of completed struc-
'ture, as far as it IS possible. II X =
'In the lower portion have chosen the
Dcric order Of architecture, OH account ofits
simplicity, and above the Ionic The great
size of the memorial hall, which have de-
signed to be both impressive, Instructive and
useful, has led me to leave the Intel
construction and adopt the vault and
arch form.of Roman work. My main object
is to present in the present draw

irgs the form Of my proposed mausoleum,
and therefore the equestrian statues OF
Grants Generals Of the four principal ar
mics on the columns in front, the full relief
panels on the sides for portraits Of the sever
al Major. Generals acting under him, the
group on top as well as the other groups and
figures indicated, are simply suggestions
showing sculpture at points where the edl.
flee would best receive or require them. All
such details are subject of after considera-
ton, which, in my judgement, should be kept
subordinate at present to the general design.
while my arrangement OF plan recalls
the Tomb Of Napoleon In the Hotel des In
valides so far as the open crypt is concerned,
tire portion Of the memorial hall clear for
any patriotic or civic gathering, such as the
annual meeting Of the Grand Army, the
Army Of the Tennessee, the Society OF the
Cincinnati, etc., while at the end of the hall
have constructed rostrum for the various
dignitaries, from which a complete view OF
the large memorial hall may be seen:
vista OF the entire length is also obtained
from the entrance, terminating in the apse
and the guardian figure over the granite
tomb.
The general dimension CT my main struc-
ture is as follows. A square base, 100 feet
by 100 at the ground Ine exclusive of the
steps, and the projection Of the portico on
front and apse at rear. The total height OF
the mausoleunl would be about 160 feet from
the base line, or nearly 200 from the water
level Of the Hudson River. From the centre
of the memorial hall floor to dome is 100 feet.
The outer gallery will be 13Q feet above the
ground line, afPording a complete view OF the
surrounding country for miles.
1.-THE dome is supported on the interior by
pendentives, which I'LL in the transitions be-
tween the square formed by the vaults and
the under side Of the circular DOME These
should be of ornanientation with figure sub
jacts, formed of marble mosaic. At this
point I would indicate the special victories
Of General Grant in the war for the Union.
Above these pendentives are thirteen open
ings into the inner gallery. In the panels
above them would place the seals OF the
original thirteen States, and directly over
disks with the names, emblems, ETC., OF all
the States which were reunited in conse-
uuence Of General Grants victories, while
above them all rises the coffered dome.
"The crypt have made the subject or
particular study. It is the feature Of the
building worthy of the deepest consideration.
For material selected white granite, being
the stone least affected by climate. The
crypt itself is large and roomy, reached by
rear stairways and protected from intrusion.

display of banners, relics, personal souvenirs,
