Washington, March 20 The power
OF the Japanese government to execute
the nrml8tlco will now be put IN u otlt-
icnl test. The military power OF Japan,
In the judgment of Intelligent OH

nivil power during the war. This has
caused serious concern, Az II has been
feared that the military element,
backed by the war spirit among the
people would not submit 20 an nrmlH-

TO CONSIDER TARIFF MATTERS.
Chairman Wilson to Gail "a Meeting
of the WaXs and Means Committee

Chairman Wilson TO Gail a Meeting
OF the Ways and Means Committee.
Chairman Wilson will call a meeting Of
the ways and means committee as soon as
a quorum of the members arrives to con-
slider several important measures before
that committee. The foremost of these
contemplate an increase of the revenues of
the government by raising the internal
revenue tax on various articles Repre-
sentative Pence of Colorado introduced a
resolution previous to the holiday recess
calling for information from the Treasury
Department to the amount which would
be realized from putting a tax on beer and
increasing the tax on whisky. The resolu-
ton was referred to MIR. Wilson's COM
lnttee, and it will be one of the first SUBJ
jects taken up, as there is a growing feel
ing among members of the committee that
some plan of Increasing the revenues of the
government must be devised and put in
the form of law before the long recess be-
gins. Representative Moneys bill to raise
the tax on beer will be considered in the
same connection. Another measure to be
considered is the bill to take off the one
tenth ditferentlal Gil sugar. This d:fferen-
tial has stirred Germany, France, Dem
mark Belgium and other countries to take
retaliatory measures against American
com lerce. so that the proposed bill seeks
to overcome the commercial warfare with
these countries.

COL. HEYL'S BURIAL.
His Remains VIII he Laid Away at
Arlington Cemetery.

Arlington Cemetery.
A telegram received at the War Depart
ment says that Col. E. NJ. Heyl, the gal
liant soldier who died at Chicago last
Wednesday, will be buried at Arlington
cemetery tomorrow afternoon, with ap
Iropriate military honors. The remains
left Chicago this morning over the Pan
Handle road and are expected to reach
here tomorrow afternoon at 1:25 o'clock.
They will be met at the station by a COM
pany of soldiers and escorted to the GEM
etery, where appropriate religious services
will be conducted by an Episcopal minis
ter. Col Coroin of the adjutant generals
department will select site for the grave,
and will have general charge of the fu-
neral arrangements. Mrs. Heyl and rela-
tives to the number Of twelve will az
company the remains to their final resting
place.
The honorary pallbearers will be Gen.
Breckinridge, Col Corbin. Col. Benton,
Mai. Hall, Col. Geo. w. Davis, Col. Alden,
Col. Wilson, Gen. Morgan, Maj Gushing,
Gen. Lieber, Maj. Davis and Col Babcock.
Many incidents of the gallant service of
Col. Heyl have been recalled by his death.
On June 80 1862, while first sergeant,
awaiting muster as second lieutenant, and
not yet assigned to command, he led the
charge against a superior force of the
enemy, who mad attacked the picket line
near Willis Church, Virginia, and by his
personal gallantry stimulated the men to
extraordinary efforts, which resulted in the
rout Of the enemy and the capture of a
large number of prisoners, horses and
equipments. At that time Sergt. Heyl was
only seventeen years old. Gen. Averill,
who commanded the cavalry advance at
the time states from personal observation
that Col. Heyrs conduct on this occasion
was conspicuous, gallant and spirited.
Again, in the battle of Antetam, he is
reported as having. at critical moment.
ealloped to the front and rallied a broken
and retreating infantry regiment, charg
ing with it ard driving back the enemy,
capturing two guns and a stand Of colors.

THE COMING CAUCUS.
Mr.. Holman Thinks There Will BE
Little O. No Opposition to 1t.

There appears to be little or no opposi-
ti0n to the democratic House caucus on the
currency question to be held Monday. 1t
was reported today that some southern
members would refuse to enter the caucus
or be bound by it's action. Mr.. Holman,
chairman of the caucus committee, said:
Il think the attendance will be general,
even though some OF the members may not
entirely agree with the sentiment of the
ca Icus majority on what ought to be done.
a House caucus is for conference and adj
vice and does not bind members Oh their
VoieS OF action.
Chairman Springer of the currency COM
mittee said he had heard of no opposition
to the caucus. He thought the feeling was
general in favor Of it.
Representative Bland said he had not
signed the request for caucus, but he
would attend He said he believed in eau
cuses tending to bring members togeth-
er, but not binding them to a course of ac-
tion they did not personally approve.
When the caucus petition was circulated
yes terday four democratic members asked
to be excused from signing. They explain
ed that they wanted to See how the petit
ton turned out and asked that it be re-
turned to them.
IL was reported today that Mr.. McLaurin
and other South Carolina members would
decline to attend. This could not be con-
firned. however, as Mr.. McLaurin has not
been in the House since the recess. MIR.
TaIbert and other South Carolina members
expressed a purpose of attending.
