WASHINGTON NOTES.

The discussion OF the worlds fair bill by
the House Committee on Foreign Affairs
has resulted In bringing forward a PROPOSE
ton which, IL IL suggested, may aid in the
selection OF the site for the fair by the House.
The committee has already decided that IL
will report bill leaving blank the name Of
the city where the fair snall be held; but 10
Is feared that n IL goes into the House in
that shape and without some arrangement
in advance TO govern the method OF selection
OF a site, no agreement can ever be reached.
Under the ordinary parliamentary rules,
the probable course OF proceedings In the
House would be for some member 10 move
10 insert the name OF the site. Some other
member would thereupon move 10 strike
out that name and insert a1Othcr. On the
vote OF the last proposition the opposition
would combine 20 defeat IT, and this would
probably he the fate OF the original and sue
cceding motions, the advocates OF the diff
ferent cities desiring 10 secure tile proposed
fair killing each other off I'm succession.
To avoid this the sub committee charged
with the consideration OF the fair bill has
taken hint from the action OF the Appro-
priations Committee In securing alternative
action upon certain clauses OF the District OF
Columbia appropriation bill, and incline 90
report a special proposition when Will pro-
vide for repeated ballots in the House upon
the question Of naming the site for the fair,
with the agreement that on each ballot tho
OF ballots shall be dropped, and in tins way
II i believed that a conclusion can soon be
reached.
