A REPORT THAT MAY AFFECT TARIFF LEGISLATION ‘THIS SESSION. The subcommittee of the Senate finance com- mittee, having under consideration the question of undervaluation, were in session nearly all day to- day considering their report. They were in session until nearly 5 o'clock yesterday. They have con- siderable work before them, but will probably have a very comprehensive report ready soon after the meeting of Congress. Last spring and sum. mer they took testimony at the great ports of entry, Which established, in their opinion, the "fact that there "was a very great undervaluation of | impor and "in @ general way they had arrived at a method for the correction of the evil. ‘This plan they are now considering and putting into more mature form. Mr. Beck’s idea ts that the boards of merchants appraisers, who have so much in common with @he importer, ‘should be abolished and thelr places taken by regular Government appraisers, The irregularity of apprals-iuent, varying at the sev eral ports, suggested the Idea of having a store- house, say at “New York, where the appraise- ments should be fixed for the nce ot the appraisers at ail the rts, The question 18 one of great importance and willenter largely into the tariff discussion this winter. Tue Senate will probably not wait for the House to act, as is customary in matters relating to the revenues, but will proceed with the matter when reported ‘by the committee, and tt may be attached toa tariff bill should one come over from the House, or it may stand. as an inde- pendent proposition.

WHAT THR BRIDGE CONTRACTORS SAY. Mr. Conger repeated the inquiry of the: re. Porter and sald: “The work has stopped. The railroad company has stopped it. The facts are that we have been all ready for three weeks to push the work as rapidly as possible. ‘The stone r the masoury work has been quarried and is awaiting our order for shipment; the piles, for driving are in the river at the naty-yard waiting to be taken out and dried; and tbe plle-driver was here on two Qifferent occasions last week ready to begin work, but nothing could and has been done.” In fact we had everything in condition three weeks ago for rapid work, and we would have completed much of the preparatory work had it not been for the interference of the rail- Toad cotapany. Up to the present time all that we have done, or been able to do, ts to prepare the causeway’ on the eastern “side ‘of? the river, But we shall have to stop work on the causeway In about @ Week on account of our inability to put down the abutment to keep the dirt from washing away. There are about twenty carts and forty mrDengaved in this work, and they have now r 2 re 250 feet to run before the bridge proper begins, THER HISTORY OF THE DIFFICULTY ‘between the railroad company and the bridge con- tractors is this: About three weeks ago the bridge company started to dig a test pit for the western abutment in order to see what kind of a found)- Uon there would be on which to lay the stone. We got it dag before Col. Hains, tue United States en- sineerin charge of the work, had time to see { nd before we could nouty itm the Baltimore aod Potomac Rallroad people came and nlied the pit up. ‘Why?? Well, they claimed it was on their land. But it was not. “That J will maintain to the end. You can see by the sixth clause of the speci- fications of the contract that ‘Earthen embank- ments may be used If desired on the western ap- rowch, 40 arranged that elther the foot of a slope, 44 to 1, or the tace of an abutment Will be 6 feet West of the westerly rail of tne Bulthaore and Po- Yomae Ratiroad.’ ‘The railroad compiny calms That they own 33 feet on each side of the center of their road. The Government permits them to oc cupy the land Which at that particular point is a Part of Pennsylvania avenue circle. ‘That is & Teservation, and has been for many years. ‘AN APPEAL TO COL. HAIN. “When the company stopped our work I went to Col, Hains’ office and notified him of the matter, and he directed me to rest and not do anything until he shad communicated with the rallroad People. Not receiving any word from them after Waiting a reasonable time he wrote me the follow- ing lever on the 12th instant: ‘I desire thnt you Proceed win Sue construction of the Eastern ranch Dridge as rapidly as possible. If interfered ‘with by officiais of the Baltimore and Po.omac Kallroad, you will notify me, Very respectfully, “A day or two after I notified Col. Hains, as I have told you before, Mr. Reed, the chief ‘engi- neer of the Bultimore and Potomac Co., Col. Hain: Mr, Dunkely and mywelf went over the ground and Col. Hains staked out the place where ‘ie in- tended to put the abutment, Mr. Reed told him pee Ee rallroad company Would not permit It. to be put there, and that it must be 19 feet farther back from the tracks oF they would not oon, Col. Hains replied thi he should build the bridge, and, after boine ‘dis, we separated without having come to an conciusion. THE WORK AGAIN STOPPED, “Now, then, on the 18th I wrote to Col, Hains the following letter, which fully explains what had. transpired: ~‘Reterring to your letter of the 12th instant, re- questing chat the work on the Eastern Brauch ridge be proceeded with as rapidly as possible, and to notily you if interfered with by the officials of the Baltimore and Potomac Ral 1 have the honor to inform you that we, this morning, placed a gung of men at work digging the pit-holé for the western abutment, and about § a, m. were notified by Mr. Recd, engineer Baltimore and Poto- imac Railroad Co., tat the work must be stopped. Our men continuéd the work of excavation Until 12 o'clock, and while at their dinner the excava- ton was filled up by employes of the Balumore and Potomac Railroad Co.

All we shall do 1s to pile the stuff upon the ground as fast as possible, and the dam- \dge, and unde terms of our contract it must be completed by the next August.

In commenting upon Capt. Bunce’s criticisms relative to the Atlanta a member of the Naval Advisory Board which designed that vessel said to-day that, in his opinion, those criticisms were chiefly directed, not against the Atlanta in par- ticular, but against the type of ship. Among naval experts there is ttle difference of opinion as to the merits of vessels which are built, as 1s the Atlanta, with a central superstructure and low free-board fore and aft; but, as this is the only 4m the opinion par the adi to build up the Atlanta at the bow and the reasons that the vessel was not de- tof such superstructures would be crippled. It more satisfactory to build a new vessel embodying Capt. Bunce’s idea than to endeavor to alter a vessel of another ‘The other points type. covered by Capt.
