TARES UP REVENUE BILL
Ecmo Begins tlio Consideration of an
Important Measure ,
WAR MAKES HEAVY DEMANDS F03 MONEY
Chnlrmnn Dlnglcy 1'oliit * Out tbe
for United Action
to Support tlio Oov-
vrmucut.
WASHINGTON , April 27. The opening of
three iluy * ' debate on the war revenue meas
ure attracted crowds to the galleries today
and the attendance on the floor was also
large. Hcv. Hcze Sworn , who delivered the
Invocation , asked the divine aid and direc
tion for our army and navy. Without any
evidence of excitement or preliminaries of
any kind the house went Into commlttre of
the whole , after the rwdltiR of the Journal ,
nnd entered upon the consideration of the
bill. Owing to Its Importance , Mr. DInglcy ,
chairman of the ways nnd means committee ,
did not ask that the first reading of the bill
bo dispensed with , as Is usual with bills of
minor Importance.
The reading of the bill , which consists of
forty-fcur pagc , occupied an hour and ten
minutes. Mr. Dlngley then took the floor to
open the debate. The bill , he said was
dtotlnctly a war measure. It was essen
tial that we should stand as a unit ,
uhouldrr to shoulder , as It was only through
such united action that hostilities- could be
nbbrevlited and brought to an end at the
carlleot possible moment. War now was
much moro costly than formerly. This war
demand upon our rcaourcta , ho Mid , came
just M the country wat > emerging from a
long period of deflclencleo of revenue , and
was Jtwt beginning to see thilight. . Mr.
Dlngley then proceeded with hU argument ,
pointing out the condition of the treasury ,
.tlio extraordinary demands upon It for war
puipcsei ami the necessity not only of pro-
ildlng the additional revenup which would
be wised by the bill , out authorizing the
tccretary of the treasury to borrow money on
the credit of the government. Ho followed
clwely the lines of the report which he drew
to accompany the bill when It wau reported
to the house yesterday.
uuous UNrrnn ACTION.
Ho emphasized the necessity of united
ction In support of the measure , not out )
to Impress Spain , but the countries of
Europe , with the profound conviction that
the American congress and the American
people stood shoulder to shoulder without
regard lo party , In the determination to
push to a successful termination tbo ware
\\o had undertuk'ii.
Mr. Dlngley spoke wllfi great eirnestncji
and wns listened to with profouuJ attention
Many of the democrats left their places and
look seats on the icpubllcan sldu In order
to hear better.
Mr. Dlngley said that unless nil signs
failed the war would not be a three months1
nor a six montH' affair , and the mere prep
arations wo made for both offense and de-
femo the better It would bo.
Wruu ho reached the question of the bond
Issue he wa.3 besieged with questions by Mr.
'Mc.Millln , Mr. Savet-s eul otli ° rs. and there
was some discussion of the probable cost ot
war.
war.Mr. . Sajcrs ventured an catlmato of $300-
000,000 per annum , \\hlch Jlr. Hlngley re.
JectoJ , calling attention to the fact that the
civil war cost ? 1.100,000,000 pir aruum.
Mr. layers , while avowing Ma willingness
to vote every dollai necessary to prosecute
the war , contended that Chero wca no neceo-
alty for authorising In tna ! bill the raising of
$700000,000 , when congrbs ( would meet In
December * A plethoric treasury In time ol
war would Invite endless schemes ol speculi-
itors until It was gone.
Mr. Ulngley pol-itcd out. that the authori
zation for $500,000,000 of bonds was simply
an authorlrutlon. If not needed all the bjnds
would not be Issued.
Mi. Dlngley briefly dlwLsaed the proposi
tion , which the minority would advance for
an Income tax as a ajbstltuto for the betid
proposition. The supreme court had decided
the tax uucon < 3tltutlonal and jet It was pro
posed In p'ucc ' of an authorization to borrow
money , to remind the government what
would come out ot a lawsuit which had al
ready been decided against the government.
NOT SERIOUSLY PRCSENTGO.
"It eceras so preposterous , In such an
emergency , " said Mr. Dlngley , "that I din
hardly believe such a thing Is to be
seriously presented. "
The proposition to coli the sliver seignior-
ago bo characterized as one of rhe absurdi
ties of finance which was never heard of be
yond the borders of the United States.
Selgiiloragovcs the profit from coinage.
We were not now coining silver.
Mr. Dlngley was given a hearty round of
applause whei he concluded Mr. IJalloy ,
Ic.idcr of the minority , followed Mr. Ding-
ley with the opening argument on his side.
Ho said that his sldo realized as much as
the other the necessity of raising revenue
to cirryon the war t d It stood willing to
co-opsiuto In placing at the dUpocal of the
government every material aid for the prci-
, ocutlon of the war to a eurccajttil and
apccdy termination.
T'ICTO would bo no difference of opinion
t'uf ' the. government should bo abundantly
p-ovldcd with revenue , but , said he , tht
, uiIm rUv wouli not be led or driven Into the
support of measurM'whlch commended thcra-
splvcs neither to tholr conscience nor Judg
ment. They reamed tie rlfvht to oppose
tt-o measures b > v which the majority proposed
to pro'/llc the war fucds.
.Mr. Ualley spoke with a trace of bitter-
nt3 ut the treatment the minority had re
ceived at the hands of the inajorltj. The
ch/il-man / of tl > p ways and means had said
triepanaia ? bill followed clcecly the sjstem
cf var taxation which obtained at the close
of the civil war.
That taxation , Mr. Ualley said , had bcon
followed In respect to those ta\es which fell
moat heavily on the producing und consum
ing clEsicu , llccr , tobacco and other ar
ticles were la-ad , but In
one respect. In ' I
lit * opinion utterly indefensible , the > .vatem

close of the civil , \ar had
been discarded.

Proceeding with hU criticism of this and

declared that Imperfect as It , we * , his aide
of the houao would take ) It. It the housu
would accept their proposition for an. Income -

8100.000,000 ( democratic applause. ) lie
thought the estimate of Mr. Dlngley ( $25.000. .
000 a month ( or vvur expenses ) a reasonable
one.
iMr. Bailey alro contended for the proposi
tion to coin , $18.000,000 of the silver seignior
age and to that ho thought an ksjuo of $58.-
OOU.OOO legal tender note * could be added with
propriety. The greenback circulation could be
extended tint far without danger.

gaging that credit at thta tlmo.
"Wo propose. " Mid Mr. Bailer , "to tar

the energies of tieor men for coming gen

Dlsctinslng the question of the supreme
court decision of the to com p tax case he de
clared that 710 queatlcn waa ever settled until
It wan settled rightly. Mr. Dalloy then en
tered Into an extended argument on the con
stitutionality of the Income tax , combatting
the theory that It was Inhibited by the con
stitution
Mr. Dnlley said the Income tax provision
which the minority had drawn , and which
would be ofTerci by Mr , 'MuMlllIn ' , had been
drawn to meet that portion of the court's do.
claim which was unanimous , and In which
ho concurred , by exempting federal , state ,
county and municipal bonds.
( Mr. Bailey declared that the Income tax
was the most Just tax ever considered.
"If I were rich and prosperous , " concluded
Mr. I'alley , "I would contribute of ray
abundance tp my country In this tlmo of
stress because I would not want It Bald , In
tUo history of these times , that the poor
give more of their blood than the rich weco
willing to glvo ot their treasure. " ( Ap-

Mr. Hell ( pop . Cole ) , In stating the post

the bill , Nothing , he declared , could caune

country as tdo announcement that they
were to be saddled with another bend lasuo
Mr. Sayers ( dcui. , Tex. ) said that the bill
proposed to place at the disposal of the
government $630,000,000 In addition to the
ordlrary revenues. The expenses of the
civil war In 1861 were $1.100,000,090 yearly ,
but the government was then supporting
an army of 2,000,000 men aid fleets contaia
Ing four times as many war ships as
now had. .
Whllo no one would BO farther than be In
support of the government , with these fact :
before htm ho felt convinced that $690,000 ,
000 was vastly too large a um to appro
priate. It was dangerous The corridors 01

lug fat contracts. The president would b-
more than human It he could resist their

Secretory Alger has had a number ot re
quests of this kind , anil already has nude
several changes from the original designa
tions of the character ot troops wanted and
the place of concentration , Governor Hast-
nga of Pennsylvania , accompanied by Ad-
.utant General Stewart , was on hand thortly
after 9 o'clock. Pennsylvania wa.i asked
to furnish , ten Infantry regiments of twelve
companies and four heavy batteries ot or-
lllory. ThLi apportionment U not satls <
actory to the soldiers of the Keystone
state , as the national guard I * constituted
so thirteen regiments of Infantry , throi >
' ight batteries of artillery and three troops
of cavalry. To furnUh the troop * In the
manner called foe by the secretary the
Pccinsjhanlcua eay would disrupt the state
organization , and to xccure some modifica
tion of the original order. Governor Hattnsn
and his adjutant general came to Washing-
on. In addition the state officials thlok
some consideration ought to be giita to the
cavalry troops ot the state , not one ot which
was asked for by the secretary. SecceU'V
Alger promised to take Governor Hastings'
request for a change In the apportionment
under consideration , and told him to come

NO DEUVY I.N THE nnynyun
Opiianoiitn of the lioiiil Feature Willet
\ot Debate It at T.euutli.
WASHINGTON. April 27. Whllo there Is
no doubt that the senators of all parties
who advocate tbe free coinage of silver will
oppose the bond feature ot the war revenue
bill , the present prospect U that they will
not seek to delay Its passage on account of
that provision. Senators Teller , Pettlgrew
and Duller all expressed the opinion to
day that this would be the course pursued.
Senator Jones ( Ark. ) declined to express any
opinion on the point , saying there had been
no exchange of views upon It among the
democratic senators. The bond provision
will probably be stricken out of the bill In
the committee on finance and res'ored In ,
the senate. The full democratic strength ot
the finance committee Is relied upon to op-1
pose the provision.
? prater Jo-ies cf Nevada , silver republican ,
If counted upco. to support a motion to eliminate
inate- the bond feature. His vote would be
dec'.slvc , as ho holds the balance of power
lu the commltt e. In the event that the bill
la reported to the sesato without the bond
clause , the republicans will move to rckii'ert
It after It I > i repotted , and In this way they
hops to succeed , with tlio assistance of sev
eral democratic vote. ? . The present Idea of
the silver republicans and populists Is to
let the majority pa. & the bill In the shap < <
that suits them , after a comparatively brief
debate They will flud oceaalin to state
their position explicitly , .making clear their
opposition to bonds , but they will not at
tempt to de'ay the passage of the measure

noth'og ' but dc'ay. There will he an effort
to amend the bill In committee by adding

WASHINGTON. April 27. The war flltua-
tlon la eiibtitantlally thla : The blockade
squadron remains passive before Ha\aca ,
with no presecit purpose of bombarding or
of drafting the fire of the lUore batteries.
Tlio atnitcglc purpose of effective blockade
of the Cuban capital la being accomplished
to the entire ctitlifactlon of tbe authorities
here. I
There Is no Indication that a part of the
fleet will be withdrawn for the purpcco cf
affording additional protection to north At
lantic ports.
As to the reports ot the Imminence of a
naval battle off the Philippine Islands , the
iuv.ll authorities here nerloualy doubt
whether the Spanish fleet will make a stand
against the American ships. Their ceason
for thla belief Is that the Spanish fleet l
very Inferior to the American force under
Admiral Dowey. The department , therefore ,
U datljfled that Ulc Spanish licet will not
go to do Utttle on the blgd eeas with Ad
miral Dewey , but vvlll remain In port to se
cure the protection of the battecles of Ma
nila , and the department U not expecting
an engagement for about two days.
Without giving any explanation for set
ting this time , tue department allows It to
be surmised that the estimate la based on
Its knowledge of Admiral Dewej'n where
abouts. There to no certainty that there
will be an engagement at all In the 1m-
mediate future , the rna'u ' purpose of the
Ameilcan e\pedltlcn being to selzo and hold
some suitable Spanish territory In the Phil
ippines ca a Lase of operations In Asiatic1
watcts. It ls pcx lble that this can be

of the Montserrat at Clenfuescs. The offi

blockade of CienfAiegos had begun.
The very fact 'that ' the MacUld ofllcla's
have rather cotentatlously declared that the
Sr'inl'h fleet his silled to bombiid the
cities on the North American coast Is taken
as a certain Indication at .the Navy depart

Spanish officials would be the. very last to

In the War department there Is a growing

work involved In thus Increnlag the arm ) ,
regular and volunteer , has caused General
MilM to abandon lib southern trip for the

forces and many changes may bo looked

It Is suppcsed also that the official notice
of Fiance's neutrality will be received b >

a proclamation was agreed upon at yester

powers Germany and Austria , neither ot

does not cause surprise , as Austria's sym
pathy with Spain Is more pronounced than
that of an > other country of Europe It U
net doubted , however , that Austria will as-
durnc a neutral attitude sooner or later.
The delay of Germany Is felt to be due
solely to Germauy'tj consulting Its own com
mercial interests before shaping the exact
terms ot Its nsutrallty proclamation. Prom

opposed the right cf search as detrimental to

The SpcnUh o-der published In the official
gazette last 'Monday ' announced the purpose
of exercl&lnm the right of sparch of all mer
chant ships on the nigh seas.
Tbe prcal.'ent's proclamation of yesterday
qualified the rl hi rt search by saying that
It "Is to be exercised with strict regard to
the rlsht of oeiftra'a , and the voyages of mail
steamers are iV > Site be Interfered with , ex
cept oa the -Clearest grounds of suspicion ,

It Is understood1 that this matter of right

Germany , and < tbat It It Is satisfactorily es
tablished ti t thatvGermm merc-haut ships shall
not be subjecf'to/harasaraent / , "Germany will

Colombia Is. the only South or Central „

clared neutrality.- ' Spain baa counted much
on the oo-opora'tlon of Spanish-American

that all ot them will adopt a ueutrr.l pjltlou.
Members of'Hho diplomatic corps dlamUs
the report coming from Eurpet that another
move tow ard "European Intervention will bo
made aa 8Oon , 4'paln ' suffers a. decisive re
verse. This la said to bo purely conjectured ,
as no auch moVe has taken form thus far by
the exchange ot notes.
It is accepted as settled that no more
shirs Intended ( or the American navy can
leave the port ot thoee countries , which have
declared their neuttullty. This result U most
serious in the case ot tbe cruiser Albany ,
now at the Armstrong yards , In England.
The view among diplomatic officials Is that
nolther the Albany nor the torpedo boat
Somers can leave , even though the United
States flag was raised over them before the
proclamation of neutrality was Issued. It Is
eald the raising of the flag cannot avoid the
manUest uses ot tbe ship for war purposes.

The blockade * continues without Incident.
No casualties have been reported to the flag
ship. Laet night waa uneventful ,
This morning the torpedo boat Dupont ar
, rived fiom Mataiiws , reporting that thcro
had been no moro firing there and that the
' blockade was effectively established. No
prizea have been secured by the Matanzaa
EKjuadron.
News bis been received that La Lucha laat
night asserted that two coasting stcamcm
had sneaked Into Havana harbor on Satur
day , but It should bo remembered that ut
that tlmo the blockade waa only In Its In
itial otages Today the squadron Is equipped
with a force of small bust ? , which , under
cover of darkness , can got close In fihore ,
where they are likely to prevent blockade
running by llttlo craft hugging the coast.
The amount of provision carried by the
two coasting steamers Into Havar.ii last Sat
urday must have been so small as to be prac
tically of no effect. The Incident cannot be
taken as In any way a crlteilon ot the block-
ado's effectiveness or a affecting In the
slightest the chances of our success.
Havana even i'iovv feels the pinch of the
blockade. When Spanish need of food be
comes Imperative , then If there Is nicney
enough In the city to make It worth while
there are likely to be many attempts made
at blockade running , but Rear Admiral
Sampson silR they will be unsuccessful.
Then w 111 conio the Inevltiblc , anil ( Havana
vvlll be forced to surrender end beg for fool.
The appearance of the SpatiUh fleet , and
an attempt to raise the blockade , are con
tingencies that must be considered. This
phase of the question , however , U one cf
conjecture. > 'o one knows whether the
SpirVah fleet Is In condition for a fight , or
whether It would be willing to take such a
risk for the sake of relieving Havana. Evtu
should an engagement between the two fleets
occur , there la no reason to believe that It
woull ameliorate the plight of the r.ty.

PATCH BOAT ( via Key West ) , April 27. I
p. in The flagship New York spent last
night patrollng the coast from a point west
of Havana to a point within ton miles of
Matanzas. The general belief Is the cream
ot the prizes has been taken and that not
many more Spanish merchant vessels will
venture Into these waters.
Of course the absorbing topic , from ad
miral to coal picker , Is "Whoa do we take
Havana ? " Ono could not help thinking
when lying near shore how easy It would
be to land troops at a particular point , or
at hundreds of other places. The toy forts
would not frighten a battalion of school
cadets , and the water Is deep enough to
allow the war ships to cover a landing from
close .
in. i
On Its present trip to Key Weat the
Dauntless , at ( he request of Captain Chad-
wick of the Now York , brought In joung
Ananguren. brother of tlie Insurge'i brlgaoler
Gensral AraJiguren , who was killed by the
Spanish colonel Beuedleto in revenge for his
having shot Lieutenant Colonel Ruiz ot the
Spanish army.
Young Aranguren has been to the flagship ,
where It was thought at first foe might be of
some especial use , owing to his local know.1-
cdse-ot certain parts Of the coast , but the lad
has not been well , and It was thought better
to send htm home.
It was almost ludicrous to see the tran
sition In the cxpresslcn of the Spaniards
taken prisoners o fl the Spanish merchant
men , fr vn a state of fear to one of the incut
corrplctp politeness , when they found there
was no Intention to maltreat them.
