The wsys and Means Committee.
The Ways and Means Committee of the
House this morning adopted resolution
providing for the final adjournment OF Con-
gress on the 25th. Unless something un-
f0Teseen arises, IL is believed the resolution
will be adopted by both Houses The meet
ing OF the Ways and Means Committee
about completes the work Of the committee
for the session. The policy of some of the
Democratic members Is the postponement of
any further attempts Of tariff revision and
TO prevent action on sugar. salt, lumber, iron
ore and other proposed bills. The improb-
ability OF any additional tariff bills emerg-
ing from the Ways and Means Committee is
increased by the fact that the Republican
members Of the committee arc not disposed
to assist the Democrats on the committee to
steure quorum. Word was received by
the Democratic members that the Republi-
can members would not attend any sessions
OF tile committee except for the considera-
tion OF the adjournment resolution reported
to-day. The number of the Republican
members makes it impossible for the conf
mlttee TO do anything, and the refusal, be-
sides preventing the report Of an additional
tariff bill, will render it Impossible for the
committee to do anything, If the refusal is
persisted In.
