That is not the proposition in the exact form in which thoCom- mittee has decided it, Tho question of cottons, sult, and steal raila Is still pending. | ‘THE SCHEME OF THE OPPONENTS of revenue reforin was to defent tariff legisla- tlon by so londing down tho bill that It would unite all protedtivo Interests against It. The un- Nnished bualness before the Committee was the bichromuate of potash bill. Mr. Curllate, who Introduced it, insisted that tho bill ought to be reported on {ts merits, elthor favorable or othorwige, and pointed to the fact thnt tho coun- try was oriticising tho Committee for smother- ing such independent propositions as this. Fer- nando Wood, to the surprise of & good many, snid that bad ho not beon Chairman of tho Committee, and therefore in a measure bound tosupport ita deerocs, ho should havo voted with tha minority of tho House Inst week in tho tariif contest, ono purpose of which wasto robuke the Waya and Means Committee. Mr. Frye, of Maino, thon, in what isdeseribed as a very bitter and threatening speech, demanded that all protooted -intoroste should stand together. Ho doclared that if the duty on bichromato of potash was to be ro- moved ho should unite with the protectioniats and attack everything clso on tho list, including steel rails aud sugar. Tho protectionista, do- termined on smothering legislation, then begun to offor amendmonta for which tho revenuo reformers wero obliged to vote. THE WRIENDS OF REVENUE REFORM had hold 2 mocting, and bad considercd the pro- prioty of voting down these amendments, but decided that {t would bo useless, and that thoy had better vote on all questions presonted in Committee, Of course tha object of tho pro- tectionists was to Incumber tho bill:so that tho ontire tariff strength tn tho House might be nr- rayed ngnlnst it, The ‘routine of procoedings was in the following order: Mr, Kolloy moved to amend by placing manufactured paper, wood- pulp, Jute butts, unmanufactured tinx, straw, und all other fibro and fibrous planta for uso in the manufacture of paper on the free let. ‘Tha yote on this proposition was 8 for and J agalnst, Mr. ‘Lucker thon moved thut the following be inserted: Flnnneis and blankets, and a number of articios of kindred character, Lost by u tio voto, Mr. Conger then movod that the rate of duty on artictes fn thie inserted section bo 60 per cout nd yalorum, Lost by a tle vote. MR. CONGER THEN MOVED to mako tho duty 45 per ceut. Also lost by a tio, Mr. Tucker thon movod to make the duty 40 er cent ad valorem, and this was adopted.” At his point, and pending a motion to put cotton goods on the bill, the Committee adjourned, One need not be very profound to conclude that the proposition to put print. paper upon tho freo list, which was mude by dudga, Kolley, of Pennsylvania, wag not exactly a movement tn ST.

MITTENLY DENOUNCED RY BOUTHENN AND WEST: EQN DEMOCRATS FOR IA PROTRCTIONIST PHRINGIPLES-ECHOES OF THE PILINUBTERING IT, Speciat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. Wasnrnaton, D. C. Marek 90.—The contest in tho House over the tariff question and tho ref- erence of the Townshend bill may be more far- reaching than cithor Mr. Townshend or Speaker Tandall expected. It Is not impossiule that im- portant politicn! consequences may follow the contest of the Inst few days. It is very certain ‘that the Democrnts of the South and Weat favor lower duties, and equally cortain that tho Dem- ocratic leaders of the Middie States wish toavold any agitation on the tariff question until after tho Presidential election. The fight of last week in tho House may prove to bo the means of re- shaping Democratte national issues. Already it is reported that Tammany politicians have tele- graphed to antl-Tildon mon hero to * Keep up the fire on Randall as 6 Protectionist in dis- guise," It neoded no telegrams from ‘Tammany Halltomako Speaker Randall's position more Uncomfortable. Thoro has never been harmony between Speaker Randall and his purty in tho House; the occurrences of tho last few dayshave helped to Increase the disharmony, Tho Speaker's recent rulings, by which bo would not permit the journal to be read, and under which he cscapud the responsibility of ruling on polnta of order, were so manifestly ‘unjust and In the interests of tho party of Pro- toction, that 4 large number of Democrats aro thoroughly disgusted. Among these are Proc- tor Knott, Blackburn, Mills of Texas, and Hook- er of Mississippi. tr, Singleton, of Illnols, suld to-day that Randull's decisions ‘ WERE UNPARALLELED. “Tf he had decided that tho House should de- clde whether tho reference should be inade to a certain committee, {t would be wrong, but not outrageous; but, when ho ruled that the jour- nals could not be read, ho went far beyond any- thing In tho history of Parliamentary ralings, Ho has made himeelf 80 obnoxious to the Demo- crate that, if an election for the Spenkership wero to bo had to-morrow, he would got get alx votes outside of his own State of Ponnsylvanin, Tho feeling in the House js very bitter azainat Randall; but no harm will come to the party on his account. as be will be held responsible for tha demornlization into which ho hns got tho pars Mr, Myors, of Indiana, thinks the Speaker has offoctually slaughtered himself in the West, so far as any ambition may be entertained by Sim in the direction of the Presidency, Mr. Vance, of North Carolina, did not like to sy much about it, as he isa very consorvative min; but he was willing to say that, in his opin- fon, there wns a at, doal of dissatisfaction with the Speakor on acocunt of bis rulings. He was not Propared to sny. however, just how Touch injury ho bad donedimself, or what oppo- sition thero would be to his renomination for the Spenkorship on this account. His own (Vanco’s) pocale are all for Froe Trade, and will probably DISPOSED TO ORNSUAE the Bpenker. A member of tho Ways and Beans Committee froma Southern State said that every one of Randall's rullags was ay wrong. He bo- Hoved that tho Speaker's open violntion of tho rules, in his zeal to further tho intervsts of tho Protection(sts, would do moro to kil him pollt- fenily than any other suing could. Ho thought, however, that Bir. Randall alredidy soca bis stu- pid blunder, and bitterly regrets tt. Mr. Warnor, of Obio, thinks the Speaker mado cy ‘blunder tn allowing bis personal preju- dices in favor of a High-Tariff polley to inter- fore with bis judicial functions as Speaker, in which ho is sitpposed to exerelse im) artinilty, He did not belleve, howover, that tho prescot: dissatisfaction among members would be por- quunent, Mr. Warner does not bellovy that tbe yotes taken On the different purtions of tha Me- Lane compromise have any significance us rep- resenting the fentiments of the Hougo as to Tariff or Free-Trade tendonclos, f Ohfo, anid: decisions, Whother he could be elected aga’ Spenker or not, I would not like to say; but there js a very hostile feeling in the Houso aaaingt him just now.” ‘ir. Morrison said tho result of tho. pirogyle did not surprise bim in tho least, When tho Committes on Ways and Means waa organized, ho recognized tho hopelusnees of any attempts at turif-legistation, In forming this Committee, and the others as woll, tho Spenker had dellb- crately deceived members, The South and Wost were wheedled and mado ridiculous, He had fought Randall on overy occasion on which ho had been a candidate for Speuker, becaurc he know him to be an avowed Protectionist. Thero wero polnts about Randall which ho admired, forall that. As to his candidacy for President belng hurt or helped by anything he has done, that Js all nonsenso, Ho has no chance for any such dlatinction, THE UTES.
