Chairman DlnKley, of tho ways and meanB eoaj mlttec, baa recolvcd a letter from Sec retary Carllslo, which is prlvato bui burnishes uotno Information concernluti tbe condition of the treasury. Diugtey Bays tbo secretary oilers to furnish tho bouso all tho data thai may bo needed Tbe condition of tbo treasury rep resented as very sorlous, uud Curllsit urges legislation for gold'bonds. Ding ley has Informed tho Boorutary thut gold bonds aro out of tho question and could not be considered. TIIK BOND II!U, Washington, Dec 27. Tho way uud meaus commlttco has adopted thi ameudmout to tbe bond bill suggested by Hopkins of Illinois, to prevont tbi accumulation In tbe treasury or green backs and their practical retirement without cancellation. Thanmondmont provides that notb lug in this act shall be construed to repeal or modify tbo aot of 1873, for a re Issuo of greenbacks when redeemed. Auotbor amendment was adopteo making bonds Issued under this aot payablo within llftoen years. The amuudmenta were adopted by a strict party vote, and tho bill was roporud to tbo bouse as ameuded. OEDATb ON TUB TARIFF BILL TIIURS DAY NIUIIT. Immediately after the reading of tin journal, Dlngloy, chatrmau of the ways and means committee, reporteo tbe revenue bill and agreeu upon tin mtjorlty of the committee. Tho bill was accompanied by an elaborate report, In which tbe committee said: "Your committee regards the tbi obronlo deficiency In the revenue for tbo past two years and a half as tbe most potont causo in the difficulties tho treasury has oncountered, and an important factor in tbo creation and promotion of that serious distrust wblob has paralyzed business and dau gerously shaken confidence, oven in the Huauclal operations of tho govern ment, The serious fact we are called upon to confront is that in the two and a half years that haye elapsed since July 1, lb03, this government has had an Insufficiency of revenuo to meet current expenditures, amounting in tbe aggregate to about J133.000.000, aud, even for tho first half of tbe present fiscal year tbe deficiency will reach about $20,000,000, and about 3,000 600 tbe present month. 'The Insufficiency of tho revenue baa mado it necessary to uro redeemed United States legal tender notes to paj current expenditures, and thus supply an additional means to draw gold from tbe greenback redemption fund, in short to create tbe endless chain of which tbe secretary of tbe treasury complains, and which has made it nee essary to sell Issue after issue of bonds to replenish the treasury. Those who oppose raising more revenue in such a situation, In eUect, whether tbey intend to do so or not, favor borrowing In preflereuce to paying as wo go along. While we liavo, at reseut, In a brief measure reported a horizontal In crease of 15 per cent of existing duties on all schedules but two, which fa an addition of leas than 8 percent to the average ad valorem (giving abut J16, 000,000 revenue fromthut eource), yet more than f25,000,000 of tbe $40,000,000 which it Is estimated this bill would add to our annual revenue, will come mainly 'from wool, which is taken from the Uco list aud given a moderate Iduty, nd from tbe manufacture of wool, whloti mo glvtn a compensatory duty equivalent t tho duty ou wool (which is always necessary when n duljt is placed on wool), iu order to give tbo woolgrower the boneflt nud mako it possible to manufacture wool ens At homo. "Such lumber nk was placed on tho free list by the aot,$( 1600, without tho slightest Justification, Is restored to tho dutlnbio lst, but with a duty of only 10 per cmt of tbo duties provided by tbe act of 1800, giving ati equivalent of oniy about 16 per cent." This bill tuo speaker forthwith re ferred to a committee of tbo whole bouse, Henderton closed tbo debato on tbe rule in a speech, which aroused tho Republican side to great enthusiasm. "A Demooratlo president," ho said, "had sent congress a declaration of war, and three days afterwards tiled a petition of bankrupoy (Republican ap plause.") "Wo ate hot for war," con tinued Uendoraon. "The president desaauded money. Wo will Rive it to him, but we have not declared war, although war will fltjd us ready. Let not the business Interests of the country suffer before tbe tempest in a teaporl. The country has assets. Tho Repub lican party has returned to power iu the legislative branck of tho govern ment. It will Boon'ifavo tho executive aud then never again1' will our integrity be put to question. Tho Democrats have no right to oowplulu of whip aud spur and gag after their pcoceodinga on the Wilson bill." Tn special order ugiUcr which tho bill was brought to u vote) after tbrco aud ono half hours of debute, wan Ironclad in character, aud conipolloa tho mem oers to adopt or njpet It without an opportunity of ottering amendments of any kiud. Tho debato lUolf whs participated In by the leaders ou both sides. Tho republicans oouteuded that the first necessity fir tbo treasury was reveuuo to supply the ooutlnuucd do Uelonoy. Every speaker denied that tho propose!! j&casurojwus a republican protojtlon,grj.v It ws, tboy claimed, an emorgonc.rovonuM bill ou protect ive lines. It was significant that soveral. no tably Dalzell, Payne, Hopkins uud Urosveuor, (predicted 'the pussugo of a genuluo protective moasuro, as noon as iho republid.ua gained coutrolot tho White Houso. The democrats took, tho position thut tboro was no laok of rovonuo In the treasury and that tho passing of a bill to lucreaBO taxation would In uo wise belp the situation nor furnish tho re lief desired by tbo president nnd secre tary of tbo tbo treasury. Tho bill passed today repeals tbo present tarlU law until August 1, 1803 It restores 04 per cont. of the MoKlu loy rates on wool aud wooleno, lumber and carpets and mukes a horlzontul Increase or tho present rates In all othor schedules except BUgar, of 15 por cent, When tho bill was put upon Its passage it was passed, 205 to 81, tho vote being takon by yes aud no. Thero may bo an Important ohango mado In the ways and moans commit tee In the bond bill before the scheme is Drought beforo tbe houso tomorrow. Considerable dissatisfaction baa arisen among Republicans since tho text or tbe bill was made public, dlsaontera as serting that it could be used by a hostile administration for tho permanont re tirement of greenbacks. Iu committee meeting a similar ohurgo was mado by Democrats that the Republicans proposed to secure what they had always opposed and what President Cleveland advocated, tbe retirement of grcoubaoks. Accord ingly there will be a committee meet ing today to consider an amendment prepared by Hopklns.ot Illinois, which follews: "Provided, that nothing herein con tained shall be construed to repeal or modify exlatlux laws which authorize and direct tbo reissuance of said hgal tender notes." Hopkins is confident that the amend ment will bo adopted. Heavy Storm. New Yonic, Dec 27.

Gd grunt wo muy stand unltod to light oppression everywhere Vice presldont, Lndy Henry Somerset." Executive Approval. Chioaoo, Dee. 27. A speolal to the Poet from Washington, says: A thorough understanding Is believed to lmvo been arrived at between tbe president aud tho leaden of both purtles lit ooiigrera, by the terms of which Iho executivo will approve the tarlll bill. Hlscousentto this Is said to have been obtained by an agreement ou tho part or the Republican mem bors, to mako tho bill an emergeuoy moasuro, but limited its oporatlon to a period or about two and a hair years, until August.1808. Tbo president argued that such limitation would amount to tho practical admission of the ultimate sufficiency of tho Gorman-Wilson aol from it revenuo polot of view. The Republicans were won to acquiescence by tho tbrught that they could extend the period to suit themselves, as soon as a Republican successor to President Cleveland Is Installed In the White House. Another provision of the understand ing alluded to Is a pledge on tbe part of the Republicans to do their best to push the bond bill. This bill Is abug the lines laid down In the president's message, aud tho report of Becrstary Curllslo, whloh provides for short-term emergeuoy bonds. By m .king It a Republican measure, however, hopes are entertained at the White House that It may got through tho senate. This consummation Is ex tremely doubtful, however, for tbe discovery has beon mado that, con cealed In the bowels of tho bill, Is a soheme to begin tho retirement of tbe outstanding paper money of tho gev ernmont.
