CONGRESS IS TO
 MEET ON APRIL !
President Issues Proclamation for Converting of That Body
NO SCHEDULE REVISION
The Occasion for the Special Session Is Not Set Forth, But It Is to Be Held Primarily to Revise
 the Tariff.

shington.-Following a proclama- ion by President Wilson, calling upon the Sixty-third Congress to meet in extraordinary session April ', it was learned that, instead of a revision of the tariff schedule by schedule as had been generally expected, only one bill composed of Is sections and 4000 items will be presented at the first Demo cratic caucus to be held early in April.
 The occasion for the special session is not set forth by the President, but it is known, of course, that it is to be held primarily for the purpose of re- vising the tariff. Other subjects may be considered, dependent on the state of public business and the disposition of the administration and the party leaders in Congress. The Presidents proclamation follows:
 "Whereas, Public interest requires that the Congress of the United States shall be convened in extra session at 12 o'clock noon, on the 7th day of April, to receive such communications as shall be made by the Executive.
 Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim and de- clare that an extraordinary occasion requires the Congress of the United States to convene in extra session at the Capitol in the City of Washington, on the 7th day of April, 1913, at 12 o'clock, noon, of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members thereof are hereby re- quired to take notice. Given under my hand and the seal of the United States of America, the 17th day of March, in the year of our Lord, 1913, and of the Independence of the United States the one hundred and thirty-seventh.
 WOODROW WILSON. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN,
 Secretary of State" At the beginning of the new Con- gross only tariff revision will be con- sidered. There is, however, a strong demand for action at this time on a banking and currency bill, and it is possible the leaders may yield to the wishes of those who are insisting on action along this line.
