While the new tariff bill as re-
written by Administration Senators
in control Of the Senate Finance
Committee, was called up formally
in the Senate today, and made the
unfinished business" 1t was not ex-
pected that much would be done with
the measure before next week.
Democratic members Of the Senate
Finance Committee expressed resent
ment at the notice served on them
by Republican leaders that they
would only be allowed until Tues
day to submit minority report. Sen
ator Simmons OF North Carolina,
ranking Democratic committee men,
Der, denounced the Republican ulti-
matum as unfair and ungenerous"
in view of the fact that the Repub-
lican committee members had months
to consider the bill, and were
thoroughly familiar with it's pro-
visions, while the Democrats had not
been afforded an opportunity to ex-
anime 1t uatil It was reported.
Consider Bonus.
The soldiers bonus situation was
receiving almost as much attention
from Republican Senators as that
involving the tariff. Republican
members OF the Senate Finance Com
mittee began consideration Of various
ways and means for financing q
bnous plan, which would prove salts
factory to President Harding, as well
as to the ex-service men themselves.
There was a growing feeling that
final action on bonus legislation
would be held back for a couple of
months, at least, as Senator Wat
son of Indiana and other Admin
istration spokesmen are confident
that by July /, or the beginning Of
the next fiscal year, a practical
means of financing a bonus from
expected interest payments on the
British debt can be worked out.
II was understood that word was
being quietly passed among Repub-
lican Senators that the Admins
tration is depending upon the Brit
ish interest payments to materi-
slize soon enough to provide a
method for paying ex-service men
substantial cash bonus, II was
also stated that canvas OF the
Republican, side failed to disclose
majority In favor OF a provision
like the sales tax being attached
as rider to the tariff bill in
order to meet the Presidents ex.
pressed demand that the bonus be
accompanied by legislation to
finance II.
Senator McNary of Oregon was
one of the leaders of the Senate
agricultural bloc" who was said
to reflect the viewpoint OF many
of his Republican colleagues when
he declared emphatically that ANY
kind OF a bonus bill would not do"

NEW ELECTION
FOR ASCENSION.
PARISH ORDERED.
TechnicaIity Prompts Bishop
Harding to Ask for
Second Choice.

A civil law OF Maryland, passed in
1898, today caused the Right Rev.
Alfred Harding, bishop Of the diocese
Of Washington Of the Episcopal
Church, TO order a new election OF
the yestry at the Church OF the As
cension.
DIR. r. Arthur Hooe, recently re-
appointed senior warden OF the
church at the Easter Monday vestry
election, complained that the elec'
ton was irregular in that certain
members voting were not registered
in the Church thirty days prior TO
the date of the election, as required
by the old law.
DR.. Hooe's assertions led to a
meeting Of officials of the church In
the office OF Arthur s. Browne,
chancellor Of the Washington do
cese.
1t was discovered that the Mary
land law, referred to as the content
Of Dr. Hooe's complaint. had been
forgotten at the church, and that
no member admitted to Ascension
parish within the past three years
had been registered on the books
of the church. In fact, at least
two membe' =" the vestry elected
last Monday were never registered
members OF the church. according
to Chancellor Browne.

Browne, that the election was suf-
ficiently irregular to hold it over
