THAT NEW TARIFF BILL
The Committee Confronted by a
 Serious Situation.
MORE REVENUE MUST BE PROVIDED

Forecast For the Week In Senate aud House More Silver Repeal Debate In the Upper Branch, While the Lower VIII Discuss the Federal Election Law.
 wAsHINGroN, Sept. 25.-This week will see the beginning of the work of putting into shape the tariff bill to be reported by the committee on ways and means. The committee Is confronted with serious financial situation. It is admitted that in some way at least S60, GOO OOO of additional annual revenue must be provided to meet the ordinary current expenses of the gov ernment, and unless the sinking fund law Is suspended or repealed the deficit will amount to over SlO0Oo0,OoO. How this is to be done is the question the committee must answer by it's work
 One of the leading members of the com mittee said, T believe the bill will em- brace a general scheme of reduced duties the changes to be made with no reference to the persons or interest affected while Chairman Wilson has been quoted as say ing, The taritf bill which the ways and means committee will report will fulfill in every respect the declarations of the na- tional Democratic platform on the subject. Representative Wilson declined to set a date for the introduction of the bill, but in- timated that it would be ready by Nov. l. An impression prevails that Jan. l, 1895, will be agreed upon by the committee as the date for putting the law into effect.
 Another Week of Debate. There is a reasonable certainty that con gross will spend the entire week in debate. | The first business in the senate will be the resolution offered Saturday morning by Mir. Stewart declaring for the independence of the three great branches of the federal i government. This came up in the morning hour today, and Mir. Stewart made it the | text for an attack upon the administration on the ground that it has trespassed upon 1 the constitutional powers of the Legislative ] branch of the government in the case of the 1 pending repeal bill.
 Notice of formal speeches has been given i by Senator Bate of Tennessee for this aft ernoon, by Senator Perkins of Californis | for Tuesday, by Senator PaSco of Florida i for Wednesday and by Senator Dubois o Idaho for a later date in the week. Thes, speeches will not fill in all of the time, a, the lvngthcning of the sessions by the ad ditiun of an hour will give seven full hour for debate each day. But by this evening the list of speakers will doubtless bc in creased, and there are half dozen senator, who stand ready to talk at any momen they may he called upon to do so.
