Washington Jtn 24.?Tnire t? very grave doubt io regard co ibe passage, of tbe war tex redueiion bill at tbte session ol eoogrees. Tbe bill drama bj the house differ* radically from, that dravo by the senate, aboat the ooLy point of resemhleoee between theo? heiag the faat that each reduees the roueaee by aboat $40,000,000. whereas Secretary Oege aeeerts that tbe goasrasaeat eao aot afford to reetriot its income by si ore thao $30.000,000 8iooa both boaaee peraiat io uodereut?og tnie to tow extent of about $10',<W&.00Q>, it is be? lieved that the administration woold aot regret to see tbe whole natter go over till oext sseeioa. Certainly, the behaviour of: certain etealera would give one this icnpreeeioa. Moreover, if eongreaa eontinuei to pile op the appropriations as it is doing even $30,000,000 redaction will be too tnuob. it is estimated that $760,000, 000 will be expended at this ssssioo. Over $720,000,000 were expeoded at tbe leat one, making tho total nearly a billion and a ball Tbe river aod har? bor appropriation bill providsa for an expenditure of $60,000,000 ; tbe naval bill is equally extravagant, aod tbe advooatee of the ship subsidy bill insist that tbe goveromeot shall give to the beneficiaries of their scheme a sum estimated at $9,000,000 a year for a long term of years. Instead of re? trenchment and tax reduotioo the ten? dency seems to be toward rxtravagaooe aod tbe perpetuation of exoessive war taxes. Tbe advocates of ??liberal appropria? tions" oonteod that tbe country has passed beyond tbe stage of moderate expeoditnree, even in tbe piping times of peaoe, aod that government disburse* ments keep paee with tbe growth of population The argument of those who attempted to defeod tbe cxtrava ganoe of tbe tirst "billion dollar con gress" was, io substaoco, that "this is a billion dollar country " There is small c luufort io such reasoning: for pursues of limited meaos, to whom increased taxation represents seme do gree of deprivation. For instanoe, the war tax of 10 cents a pcund on tea, an artie'e which cv3ry bod) uses, is et*tiotatcd by tho treasury to be about 80 per c?nt on the import value How rouoh satisfaction doe* it efford the poor man who baa io piy this to bo told, on tbo au hjrity of Senator Fryc, that if be v?i 1 cooiicu: to b^ar tho burden meekly provision Trill be made to subsidize Amcii:an gjips so that one great compaoy, at least, will b? able to pay ita atockhold ors 3.\ per cent, dividend. Tbe cuan who ku > pay 35 cocts a pound for an lalsfiot quality of tea will Sod no solace il 'h assuranco that if he lubmits obediently to excessive taxation the Untici StbtCH will eventually hev? < he greatest co lestion of warnbips ic the world to doi'ind cur ? ubs'dlr.'d merohant marine. Tbo republicans aro detormiccd to torce through tbe slipping bill If it cannot he brought to a vote at tb-l session, th i tepublioaco will fco to it that one cr more of the appropria ioo hills also fails, an] ao extra session mil be called to pass tbcoi. Then, wbco ooogross baa met?to appropriate ?it cao, of c urt-c, take :p tec ehippiog bill ioc'dootally. Thus the pre?'deot will bo freed from ih? criticisms vt having calH ro session for tbo bencfi {of the bbip owners aod yet the ehip ewoer will be benefit ted by the session ho will have called So everything will be lovely ar.d the taxpayers Kill have to shell out. Meanwhile tho treasury bureau of Htliltioi is congratulating the co'otry that American exports have inortartcd from $857.502,548 io 1890 to $1,478, 050,584 in 1900.
