CHANGES IN THE CODE OF RULES.
SEVERAL IMPORTANT ONES NAY BE RECON-
MENDED BY TIE COMMITTEE.


Washington, Aug. 10 lSp,claD.-The Democratic
members ~ the House Committee on Rules were
In conference tonight in regard to some changes In
the code Of rule, which they regard as desirable
and which will probably Dee submitted to the Re
uulLcan members Of the committee tomorrow morn
ing II Is not expected that the changes VIII DE
numerous, bat some ~ them may be regarded rs
important Among those proposed, one when seems
likely to le recommended by the committee Is 10
increase the number OF members of several OF the
mara imrortant committees 10 seventeen. This In
crease /, ucsc,tcd by the increase In the membership
NJ The House itself and also by the fact that the
IocsIotion reporcd from committees IS almost always
carried through without material change or modifca-
tlon. the House ratfying the report of the com
nittee II the change Is made the increase VIII
urohobly affect the following committees:
.pproprations Naval Affairs, Military Affairs.
Indian Affairs rostofcc Foreign Affairs Agriculture
Rivers and IIarbors Ways aud Means Banking and
Currency Coinage, Weights and Measures, and per
haps one or two others.
Each Of the first eight committees has jurisdiction
of one or more Of the general appropriation MllS.
Tho Ways ard Means Committee Will probably be
one Of gr.n prominence In the present Congress. ana
e same remark will apply To- each OF The last TWO
committees MENTIONED -, >, II, ,
There Is II probability that the House VIII De
oeLcd T., consider and adopt tae new code OF rules
o morrow or on saturday unlt s. the hill to repeal
the bullion purchase provision shall he brought for
ward for discussion. There i II strong feeling III
The House I'm favor Of having the rules before the
rrpcal bill Is considered.
