WORK or THE HOUSE. '
Ear-if! Bill Reported by llIr. Dingley.
lllr. Bailey Gets ’l‘lme. _
WASHINGTON, March 20. ———All the pre-
liminary symptoms that the house was
about to plunge into the work before it
existed when the speaker rapped the mem-
bers to order today. The desks were piled
high with the appropriations bills which
failed.
Chairman Dingley of the. ways and
means committee was in his place, as were
Mr. Cannon of the appropriations commit-
tee and Mr. Henderson of the rules coni-
nittee.
Immediately after the reading of the
|ournal Mr. Dingley, amid some applause,
reported the tariff bill.
Mr. Bailey of Texas, on behalf of the
minority, secured unanimous consent; to
extend until Monday the time in which
ihc minority report may be filed.
Mr. McMillin showed a disposition to
abject to Mr. Dingley’s request for the
printing of additional copies of the bill and
report unless a comparative statement ac-
:ompanicd the bill.
Unless this was done, he declared, the
sill would be unintelligible, as the duties
in so many cases were compounded.
It was finally arranged that 5,000 extra
copies of ' the majority and minority re-
ports and also 5,000 copies of the compara-
tive statement should be printed.
Mr. Dalzell (Rep, Pat), from the com-
mittee on rules, then presented the special
rules under which the house was to operate
luring the tariff debate.
The rules provided that the general de-
bate should begin on Monday at 10 o’clock
and continue until and including Thurs-
:‘lay, March 25, with night» sessions, after
which the bill should be opened to amend-
ment under thefive minute rule (commit-
tee amendments to have precedence) until
3 o’clock on Wednesday, March 31, when
the bill with pendingamendments should
be reported . from the committee of the
whole and the previous question should
be considered as ordered on the third read-
ing and final passage of the bill. The rules
also gave leave to print for 20 days.
Mr. Dalzell demanded the previous ques-
bion, which was ordered by a. strict party
vote—163 to ISO—the Populists voting
with the Democrats.
