PRESIDENT PRO TEN.
,BY TELEGRAPH TO TIE TRIBUNE
Washington, July 30-The Senate tariff bill
will probably not be reported for some time yet
Those in position TO know say that it will take
at least week or ten days for the Committee on
Finance to finish its labors. Most Of the schedules
have been or arc to be. submitted to the different
interests affected 1t will be impossible, probably,
TO please everybody; but the attempt will be
made to harmonic all conflicting claims so as to
produce in the end a thoroughly equitable meas
ure which shall really reduce the revenues, and
not, like the Dark Lantern bill, only pretend
to do it. 1t is needless to add that it will also
be drafted on lines of just protection without
creating monopolies, and will not, like the Mills
bill, cover under the cloak Of the surplus an
attack upon the industries OF the country ana
at the same time foster trusts.
The subcommittee is still giving hearings and
receiving suggestions To-day, for instance, 1t
listened to an argument submitted by representa-
tives Of wool growers. Tomorrow it will hear
woollen manufacturers. 1t has within the last
week also given wOrlUngmen an opportunity TO
be heard. All this is in striking contrast to the
manner in which the Mills bill was prepared and
pushed through. The Republican members OF
the committee do not exclude their Democratic
colleagues from their meetings Mr. BECK, the
Democratic member of the subcommittee, for ex-
ample, has at all times had free access to the
meetings, but for some reason or another has
never availed himself Of the opportunity to attend
them.
The bill after being reported to the Senate, will
be discussed in all its details Nothing has been
done looking toward a curtailment of discussion.
All talk of preventing the delivery OF speeches. OF
limiting the time of debate has so far been con
fined to Democratic Senators. A member Oh inc
Finance Committee said to-day that the Dill would
certainly be discussed for at least one month
This, together with the ten days it Will take 10
put the bill into final shape for report to the oeh-
ate and discussion in conference after it shall have
passed that body, does not promise well for an
early adjournment of Congress. Indeed II Con.
gress gets through with its work by the middle OF
September il will be doing we'll -
Already over twenty applications have been filed
with the President pro tenn for the delivery OF gen
eral speeches. As many more will pour IN PROB
ably before the bill is reported. These Will con-
sumo ten days at least, in their delivery Inc
remainder Of the time will be taken up in discuss
ing the bill section by section.
