Washington. Dec. Ga statement
made by Hon. Nelson Dingley. chair
man of the rays and means COM
1nittee. since his return from Canton,
where he went to confer with Presi-
dent-elect Mckinley confirms the pre-
diction made BIZ The Herald CORE
spondent ten DAYS ago. Mr.. Dingley
says:
Frankly speaking. I have no hope
OF the senate passing the bill. 1t is
the same old senate, yet I cannot but
hope that good viii result from the
agitation
It was very plain. from other state
ments made BY the chairman of the
ways and means committee, that he
had little faith that the house of repre-
sentatives would act favorably on the
bill, even if by a very remote posi-
bility. the bill should pass the senate;
and, Furthermore. DESPITE the state
ments of eastern newspapers made re-
Gently concerning the attitude of
President Cleveland, he believed the
president would veto the bill if it
should pass both houses of congress.
AS stated in these dispatches hereto
fore, members of the ways and means
committee delegated one of their num-
Der TO talk with the president concern
ing the Dineley bill. While the presi
dent did not state in so may words
that he would veto the bill if it should
be sent to him. he expressed his dis
approval of the measure very plainly.
To sum up the whole situation, mem
bers OF the house committee. realizing
that the bill would have a rocky road
to travel through the senate, with a
possible veto should it pass, have
determined not 10 press the measure
but to get together as soon as possible.
during this short SESSION. and i'm
me6iately begin 70 formulate a bill so
that If will be all ready to submit to
the house when the Fifty-fifth con-
gress meets in extraordinary session,
about the middle of March. The ways
and means committee viii be consti-
tuted in the Fifty-fifth congress prac-
tically as it is now. The members are
familiar with the tariff schedules, and
it is believed that they could have the
tariff bill framed by the time the extra
session meets. The Republicans, it will
be remembered, sharply criticised the
Democrats for not allowing fuller hear
ings to manufacturers when the Wilson
bill was bein@ framed, so that it is
believed the Republican ways and
means committee will now accord
lengthy and exhaustive hearings TO the
manufacturers and others interested.
Notwithstanding this it is the iudg-
ment of Mr.. Dingley that the bill will
be ready IN time. and that there will
be little delay in acting upon it in
the house Of representatives But the
senate. q more deliberative body. will
take its time. and it is predicted that
the extra session will be a protracted
one, and may last until the fall of next
year. Statements made by Mr..
Dingley since his talk with Major Me-
Kinlev indicate that the bill Will be
moderate one. at the same time being
amply protective"

Very Narrow Escape From De-
StructiOn.

Chicago. Dec. e.-Fire attacked the First
Presbyterian church, Twenty-first street

services today. The flames got their start
in the basement of the structure, directly
