MR.. DINGLEY's VIEW OF THE NEW WAR
REVENUE BILL.
AMENDMENTS MADE BY THE DEMOCRATS OF THE
FINANCE COMMITTEE SEVERELY CRITICISED

AMENDMENTS MADE by THE DEMOCRATS OF THE
FINANCE COMMITTEE SEVERELY CRITICISED
| fBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBrNE.l
Washington May 13.-Despite the Important
| and exciting news. the amendments pro-
posed by a majority Of the Senate Committee
on Finance to the War Revenue bill were
prominent topic OF discussion among members
OF the House Of Representatives to-day anu
were sharply criticised not only by all the Re
pubcans but also by some Democrats. The
severest criticisms. perhaps. were airned
at the propositions to ISSUE an additional
$50 900 600 Of greenbacks and to coin the So
called seigniorage Of the silver bullion owned
by the Government and In the mean time to
Issue S42.O0OO0O Of silver certificates in ad-
vance Of the coinage; but the criticisms were
by no means confined to .hese provisions.
Chairman Dlngley Of the Committee on ways
and Means. among other Things, remarkeo "
n Tribune correspondent:
The Bryan Democracy appears to have
abandoned free silver ard gone back to nat
money pure and simple. am now wondering
what men like Mr. Newands. Of Nevada. and
the Republicans who left their party and enlisted
under the Bryan banner in order TO secure the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver will say to
that proposition. What's the use Of going 10
all the trouble and expense OF coming JO-ccnt
silver dollars when you can print paper dollars
in unlimited quantities and amounts at slight
trouble and expense
III the bill should pass the Senate In the
form proposed BY the majority Of the Commit
tee on Finance would that not seriously impair
the prospect Of obtaining within reasonable
time the sufficient and necessary revenue to
meet the expenses OF operations?" asked
the correspondent
1T would undoubtedly have a strong tend
Grey to produce that effect. All Of the financial
provisions now proposed by majority OF the
Senate committee were discussed and separate
" voted on in the House Of Representatives.,
and rejected by decisive majoriteS. about TWO
weeks ago and the bill sent 10 the Senate was
then PASSED by a majority OF 30 votes.
The Bland amendment. providing for an al
ditional issue OF Sl5O0D0O0 In greenbacks. was
rejected in the Committee OF the Whole by
majority Of about ~ votes, when one nun
dred members were absent or not voting. II IS
not proba bic. therefore. that the House VIII
readily recede from the position II took on
April 20 It may not be called on 10 do -.
for according to information received from
lions now are that the bond and certificate
sections Of the House bill will be restored by
the Senate with perhaps a reduction or the
amount Of bonds authorized.
