IL 70 Said an Agrsemsnt Has Been Reaches
Between the President and Leaders
Chicago. Dec. GA special to the
Post from Washington says: A thor
ough understanding Is believed to have
been arrived at between the president
and leaders Of both parties In con-
gress, by the terms OF which the exc
cutive will approve the tariff bill His
consent to this IL said to have been
obtained by an agreement on the part
of the republican managers to make II
but an emergency measure. but lin
iting its operation to a period OF about
two years and a half. until August.
1888. The president argued such limi-
tation would amount to the practical
admission of the ultimate sufnciency OF
point of view. The republicans were
won to acquiesce by the thought that
they could extend the period to suit
themselves as soon as a republican
successor to President Cleveland Is In
stalled In the white house.
Another provision OF the understand
ing alluded to is the pledge on the part
of the republicans to do their best TO
push the bond bill. This bill is along
the lines laid down In the presidents
message and the report of Secretary
Carlisle. which provides for short term
emergency bonds. BY making II re-
publican measure. however, hopes are
entertained at the white house that 1t
may get through the senate. This con-
summation Is extremely doubtful. how
ever, for the discovery has been made
that. concealed in the bowels Of the
bill. Is a scheme to begin the retire
ment of the outstanding paper money
of the government.
