WASHINGTON, July 10, 1916, SIP. M.

The Senate Chamber was pretty well fl-
led 10 day, and it took Espey's ven,ilaIor with
all IFS power 10 keep the temperature at all
respectable. The scene is in the extreme
languid. The Reporters are trying 10 a.
muse themselves by sketching off some faces
from the chamber below and the galleries
above. Dixon fl. Lewis has a large fan
with which he is trying keep COO, for his
speech. of which he is expected 10 be deliv-
cred to-day.
MIR. Richie, Mr.. Waddy Thompson, the
Presidents Private Secretary. &c are in the
lobby. Mr.. Spcight Of Mississippi, has re-
turned locking less bilious than when he
left few days since on trip for North Car
olina. Mr.. Pennebacker is wiping his spec
taclcs and preparing 10 ''sum up TO the jury,
when the council have argued The question.
Mr.. Dickinson is looking around HIM as if he
felt that Slamm was in earnest when he call
ed him the Star Of the Senate Haywood
has returned TO his seat looking as amiable
as when he pounced upon the 81 degree 40
minutes, combining the fo1fHer in re with

There are Ladies, too, looking languidly
from the circular gallery. and then in the
back circle of The Ladies' gallery is little
man very much interested in the passage
of his own Tariff bill (wronglulIy called, in
common parlance, McKay's.) His eyes are
small. but right and sharp. The facetous
Capt. NJ. Of New ork says he look like
Corporation lamp at day-light-just going
out.
The Senate having again postponed The
Warehouse Bill till tomorrow, took up the
Tariff Bill. Mr.. Dixon II. Lewis led off in
speech in favor of the House Bill. While he
was fpeaking, l noticed Mr.. Webster and MIR.
Evans, among others, taking notes. or
course we shall have two great speeches
from them. Mr.. Evans has the floor for TO-
morrow.
The House has been engaged on The Land
bill long Time to-day. Much confusion
prevailed. and an adjournment was carried
without coming 10 any conclusion upon the

WAsuISGToN, July IL.


The Warehousing Bill was reported unex-
pectedly early this morning from the commit
tee on Commerce, TO whom il was recommit-
ted yesterday by one vote. The result oil
this recummitment was two mendments-
the FIRST lnlilingthe time of warehousing TO
one year, and the second requiring of those
who put their goods in warehouses TO give
bonds upon the goods stored. Mr. Dix gave
notice OF his intention TO call up the bill at
one o'clock, but this was not done. The
motion was made at Two O'Clock, bnt with
drawn upon request.
The Senate passed larger number OF pri-
vate bills than have passed during the session
of Congress in the House. and with much
more discrimination upon the merits OF each
case. The bills against the passage of which
any serious objection was raised, were not
considered.
The bill for the sale Of the Mineral Lands
in most of the Western States was signed ~
the Presiding officers of the two houses OF
Congress TO day, and will be law by Mon
day.
Mr.. Mckay gave notice before the adjourn
ment this afternoon that he should call up
the Treasury Note Bill on Monday.

THE NEW TARIFF.

The first news from the South, since The
passage of the tariff bill by the House oil
Representatives, is a cry Of triumph at the
victory obtained over Northern interests,
mixed with contempt of the dough faces,
whose vaIorous brag of defiance was so soon
followed by the most pitilul subserviency.
The Charleston Patriot announces the pas
sage Of the bill, in letter from Washing
ton, thus
Glorious Triumph of the South. This
day the tariff bill was passed by the House
of Representatives, by majority Of 10 votes.
This was most unexpected, but glorious
event. The Secretary oil The Treasury was
an axious and attentive listener, both yester-
day and 10 day, and seemed highly gratified
al the result. He obtained a copy OF the
bill. aDd posted of with it TO the Department

think the Wings might very well trust the
defence of the Protective Principle with Mr..
Evans OF Maine. If the Loco-Focos could
only appoint some some one &c meet him il
would be grand debate, and would shorten
the session. The demagogue custom, how
ever, of making speeches for Buncombe is
creeping across the Rotunda, into the Sen

Mr.. Berrien of Georgia has paired off with
Mr.. Speight oil Mississippi. They may not

exceptions think the Senate will he full IN
less Mr.. flanagan takes it into his head
that there is no use in staying any longer
here. Mr.. Haywood who has been absent
has returned, so has Mr.. Webster.
The fate of the bill still seems likely 10
depend on the vote of the Vice President.
Mr.. Semple of Illinois caused some uneasi-
ness among the Free-traders, as it was re-
ported that he had 'struck for higher wages"
Executive power has whipped him in, l be-
lieve, and nothing now is dreaded from him.
II was said that Mr.. Benton would oppose
the bill on several grounds, and also Mr.. Cal
heun. see no ground for these hopes
The vote will be about a tic which will throw
il on the Vice President. Ii is said that he
will betray Pennsylvania, and vote against
the common construction Of The KANE letter.
That letter was intended only for the stump.

The WARE-HoUsE BILL, now pending in
Congress, like every other measure fthis
destructive administration, is ruinous to pro-
lection. Cash down payment OF duties in
this respect is highly beneficial TO the coun-
thy. This bill it is true, is for cash down;
But YET, it provides that three years credit
shall be allowed TO all imports which shall
be ware housed or re-ware-housed. This
is equivalent to giving credit on goods
This bill is beneficial TO foreign importers who
may fill the warehouse with foreign goods,
and pay the duties or not, jus, as speculation
dictates. 1t ruins the home importer who
mIh pay the duties at last, at all events. Ii
is said by Senator Davis TO be legislatiDg
more for other nations than our own. The
large capitalists would be benefited, but The
small ones who could not lie out of their
capital would be injured.
