when it would reach here It was
expected, however. early in the present
week, and as soon as received it would
be handed at once to the president, and
when it had been read and considered
by the president it would be made pub

the report, said that while fully realiz-

opinion, would willingly accord to the
president a day or two, if necessary,
for its consideration. The indications
seem to be that the report will be made
public by the middle OF the present

FUN AT DlNGLEY'S EXPENSE

Democrats Improve an Occasion to Ask
b. Who Pays the Tax. =
WASHINGTON, March 22-At the
opening of the session of the house Mr.
Dingley, the floor leader of the ma.
jority, offered the bill reported from
the ways and means committee, pro-
viding for the free entry into this coun-
try of guns, ammunition, and other
naval supplies and war material pur-
chased abroad, until Jan. l, 1S99 He
explained that the committee had unan-
imously reported the bill It was asked
for by the secretaries of war and navy.
Some of the Democrats undertook to
poke fun at Mr.. Dingley by asking him
why the supplies should be admitted
free Of duty IF the foreigner paid the
tax" .s.... ...
Mr.. Dingley replied rather sharply,
that it was perfectly understood that
where articles were purchased abroad
and imported, the purchaser paid the
duty. The bill was passed without
division.
