VIII Report Monday. 4.

WAsHINGToS, Feb. 9.-The democratic
sub committee OF the committee on
finance. in charge Of the tariff bill will
make report to the tull democratic com
mittee next Monday. and the democratic
members to the entire committee on the
following day, if the present plans do
not miscarry. The subcommittee was
engaged on the bill all the afternoon,
and it is understood the adjournment OF
the senate until Monday was taken for
the prosecution Of their labors. The
sub committee sat until after 6 o'clock
tonight.
1t has been engaged almost exclusive
ly upon the question OF revenue. and
every day makes it palmer that the bill
will he devoted as largely as possible to
the question OF raising revenue. The
committee is a unit upon this PROPOSE
tion. and is working harmoniously in
this direction. 1t has accumulated a
mass Of figures giving the present re-
ceipts Of the government and showing
estimates of future revenues on the
present basis. and making calculations
upon the effect Of the changes made in
the Wilson bill

BANDS Seigniorage Bill under
Discussion in the House.
Filibustering.
Modification OF the Measure Suggested by
the Secretary of the Treasury
what He Thinks.

WAsHINoToN. Feb. 9.-The deadlock
on BANDS silver seignolrage bill was
broken after four hours Of continuous
tilibustering yesterday, when by vote
OF 176 to 4. the house carried Band's
motion, going into committee OF the
whole for the consideration of the bill
Some eastern democrats and the gr at
mass of republicans made determined
opposition. but Bland was victorious
On the final vote IL republicans and all
the populists voted with him. while ~
democrats joined with the remainder Of
the republicans in refusing TO vote. II
is thoroughly understood that quite a
number Of democrats who voted with
Bland were not in favor Of certain mod.
itications Of the bill. although they
would not carry their opposition TO the
extent Of voting against consideration
II is also well known that Secretary Car
lisle and the administration are gener-
ally opposed to the bill in its present
form
Carlisle arrived al the capitol and had
conference with several leading demo.
Gratis of the house. as well as those
democrats who were managing the fill
clustering, and before adjournment the
announcement was officially made on the
i'oor 10y Tracey that no further attempt
TO filibuster against consideration Of the
hill would be made. This is taken to
mean that acompromise has been agreed
upon, and certain suggestions will be
made in line with the suggestions Of
Carlisle. who. while represented as not
beag against the coinage Of the silver
seignorsge, yet insist that discretionary
power ought to be lodgei with the sec.
retary of the treasury about issuing
seigniorage either in the form Of certifi-
Gates or coin. 80 it would not be injected
in lump into the circulating medium
Of the country.
lie maintains that II would be as in
furious to put out s55.ooo.O0o suddenly
as It would be to withdraw that amount
from the circulating medium. He is also
opposed. it is Understood. to the second
section Of the bill. which makes manda-
tory the coinage Of the rest Of tine bul-
lion in the treasury and the redemption
Of outstanding treasury notes under the
act Of 1850 as fast as the coinage takes
place.
After the adoption of the motion to
go into committee OF the whole. Hatch
took the chair and Bland took the floor
in advocacy OF the bill. He entered at
once upon an explanation OF the provis-
ions Of the bill. but without concluding
his speech, Bland yielded to motion

having been made that filibustering was

THE E.Ts OF THE EXODUS.

Although the !loagmo lt5 and papyri

about zoo years later, also subdued
Palestine and left lists of the conquered
peoples. but be, again. does not mem
tion the Israslites among them.
What is perhaps still more impor-
tant IL that. while the Israelites have
left records of invasions by Mesopota-
inians, Moatites, Canaanites. Midianites
and Philistines, they do not mention
any invasion by the Egyptians, and the
conclusion is that the Israelites were
not settled ON the west side of the Jor-
dan till after the wars waged by Ram
eses III at the commencement of his
reign. which began not earlier than
13ss b. c.. or. as some now say. l266
BIC.
IL has been attempted TO explain this
difficulty away by suggesting that Ram
eses III kept close to the seacoast on his
march through Palestine and did not
strike inland till he was some distance
90 the nortli of the lsraelites. but il Is
iacunctivable that he should not have
secured his long line Of communications
by establishing posts so far inland that
they must have been brought into con
tact with the Hebrews III the latter had
1t that time been settled in their own
country.
The earliest date, therefore. at which
the Egyptian history will permit the
exodus to have taken place, even when
full allowance is made for the time
spent by the Jews in the wilderness and
in conquering Palestine, would seem to
be about 1880 B. c., while, II the shorter
chronology he adopted, it could not
have been much earlier than 1900 B.
