Methods Proposed by the House
to Help the Treas ury.
TWO BILLS ARE FORMULATED
One Is Designated as "a Temporary
Revenue Bill" and Means More
lmplrt Duties.

washington. Dec. 23.-The house re-
publicans will introduce on the day af-
ter Christmas and pass within the week
two bills in response to President Cleve-
lands message of appeal for help for
the treasury. One of these will be a
tariff bill to increase the revenue, the
other financial plan to maintain the
gold reserve and prevent alleged exist
ing trouble with greenbacks
This party plan has been perfected by
two meetings of republican members of
the ways and means committee, the first
held Saturday night with the co-opera-
ton of Speaker Reed and other leaders,
the second this afternoon. Although
strong efforts were made to preserve Sc
crecy concerning the details Of the plan,
it's features have been obtained by the
Associated Press from unquestionable
authority.
The tariff bill will be entitled "A bin
to increase the revenues and to prevent
deficits in the treasury" and will go in
to effect when signed by the president
Qf he signs iD and will remain in effect
until August l, 1898. when, by it's pro-
visions, it's operations will cease. It's
items follows;
A duty on wool of 60 per cent Of the
Mckinley law rate. A compensatory
duty on wooden goods of 60 per cent Of
the Mckinley act rates. 4 duty of so
per cent of the rate of 1890 On lumber,
which will be from 10 to Is per cent ad
valorem. An increase of rs per cent
from the Wilson-Gorman act on the
rates on cereal breadstuffs, dairy prod
ucts and live stock, including poultry.
horizontal increase of Is per cent Of
the Wilson-Gorman bill on all other
schedules, with the provision that in no
case shall the duty exceed the McKin-
ley rates except where the Wilson-Gor-
man rates exceed those of the Mckinley
law
BOND ISSUES.
The second bill will provide for two
issues of bonds. The first will be an un-
limited amount of per cent five-year
coin bonds to protect the gold reserve.
with the provision that the currency re-
deemed ~ the proceeds shall not be
paid out for current deficits in the reve-
nue. unless the expenses of the govern
ment are in excess of the revenues
(Which it is expected they will not be if
the first bill is in operation)
In addition, the seconG bill will pro-
