WASHINGTON. July l?lh, 1916.
heard. yesterday morning rumor, coming TO
me from OF most respectable authority. up
the subject of the Tariff, which il true, Is of The
this among The denizens of Wall,slreet.
Ii is that Mr.. WEBSTER will tomorrow introduce
bill for q compromise on the Tariff, which he has
ascertained will meet the assent OF several of the
| prominent Administration Senators, and Will be
adopted instead of the bill from the House. My in
formant is an able w hg member oil The house from
Pennsy vania
1t is said that Mr. Sempe OF Illinois, has express
ed himself dissatisfied With the House bll end that
he has signifed his Willingness 10 vote for sub
s,itu,e such as that which MIR. Webster proposes 10
bring in.
Mr.. SEMPLE as,onished both parties by voting for
Mr. WEBsTER's motion 10 recommit MIR. DIX 5
warehouse ng bill for the purpose OF certain amend
ments specified by Mr.. w. What inference is TO
be drawn from this in regard 10 his course on the
Tariff question, l do not know, nor do | perceive
any connection between the two subjects; yet The
impression is that his mpracllcabiity, cou-
pied with the mysterious reserve OF Mr. BENTON,
NAV save the present Tariff, or secure the adoption
of some less destructive modification
Mr.. BENTON is e1 pccted TO make some movement
on his avori,e subject OF the salt duties
and fishing bounties The leading Free Traders IN
the Senate anticipate that he will take stand IN
favor of The admission OF salt without any duty, and
for striking out the fishing bountes and the only
question is whether he will make concession 10 his
notions these points SINE qua non 10 his support
of the bill
On the whole, it was plain yesterday that the III
ira Anti Tariff men were more respondent OF sue
cess than they have been at any time blncs the pas
sage of the bill by the House.
