Bill is Strictly a Protective Meas
ure.
Especial Cor. of STATE CHRoNIcLE.l
WASHINGTON, March 31.-Chairman
Mckinley presented the republican tar
1T bill at special meeting of the ways
and means committee today. He
claims that it will effect reduction of
$45, 100000 in the revenues. Ten days
will be allowed the minority to offer
amendments and prepare their views
upon the bill and such amendments as
may be made before the bill is presented
to the House. The democratic mem
oers OF the committee will present the
Mills bill, with slight alterations, as a
substitute
To-day, on motion of Hon. John S.
Henderson, bill was passed depriving
United States judges of the authority
to give an opinion On question Of
fact.
Eaves has not yet been confirmed, but
his friends are confident that he will be
this week. On the other hand, there is
rumor that he will not be, but that
young Mott may become the collector.
This rumOr has some of the elements of
verify. W. W. Mott, who has been and
may be still Eaves' chief clerk, is an
aspirant for bank examiner. In his eff
forts to secure this appointment he, of
course, has the support and endorsement
Of all of Eaves' friends. Should it turn
out that Eaves is not to be confirmed,
how appropriate it would be to take his
chief clerk! Civil service principles
would be observed and the party graft
fed! Now, whether or not this is a
| coup d etat contemplated by the Iron
| Duke, time will soon disclose. The ap
pointment of bank examiner will hardly
be made until after the collectorship i
settled.
Mr.. Clifton Breckenridge, of Arkan
sas, a leading democrat on the ways anG
means committee, told your correspond
ent today that the Mckinley tariff bill
was one strictly in the interest of pro
lection; that where it professed to pro
tect, it was in the interest of mcnopo
lies. He said that in the item of irol
and steel, where there was a chance t.
do something directly for the people
they had made very small reduction OF
steel rails, when they might have fol
lowed the Mills bill. In the case 0
hardware and cutlery, they had actuall
increased the tax
Mr.. Mcmillan spoke very slightingl
of the republican bill.
Mr. Price, Of the third Louisiana dis
i. tlict, and the leading sugar represents

the bill relating to sugar were put int
effect, it would greatly damage that in
