From this subject Mr. Vest turned to
that of the delayed Senate tariff bill, and

gTouniess.

bill designed 10 protect and foster Ameri-
can industries" as against the free trade
Mills ,arif bill, which was intended 10.
and ald, weaken masy Industries OF the

ported would be careful revision Of the
tariff laws; that II would give to men en-
gagged in the arts the use OF alcohol un-

10 statement made by Mr. Hoar yester-

nection with the Standard Oil Company;
that there was mot word of truth in
il, ror particle OF foundation for the
charge" he spoke Of Mr.. Hoar as max
ing statements "in disingenuous aud
dishonoratle way" He denied that

"insinua,ion" that Mr.. Whitney, the Sec
retary of the Navy, was interested in the
Standard Oil Company, and read thst
gentleman's own disclaimer in to-day 5
paper.
Mr.. Hoar said that the speech Of he Sen

to the Republican vote, growing out OF
the activity Of that company.
Mr.. Payne: Will you read it?
Mr.. Hoar: | will not
Mr.. PAYNE. guessed you would not.
Mr.. Hoar; am not very much moved
20 any feeling that deserves to be de.
scribed as indignation, or anger, or any
thing above the feeling OF contempt by
the utterances that have just come from
the Senator from Ohio. The history OF
that Senator's accession to:this body Is
fresh in the minds Of the country.
Mr. Payne remarked that the action 81
the Senate in the matter last alluded to
has been a condemnation OF Mr.. HOar's
position in 1t; and added tha, II that
Senator was possessed by the "conceit'
that his statements we're fair and honor
able, that conceit was confined pretty
much to the Senator himself.
