ceal or obscure the real Ques-
ton. Democratic orators were at
tempting in manufacturing districts TO
shift their ground and to conceal the
purposes OF their party, but the official
utterances OF the President and the re-
ports OF the Secretary OF the Treasury
emphasized by the Mills bill (which had
been endorsed by the National Demo
cratic Convention, and which had pass
ed the House by q strict party vote }
left no doubt whatever as to the truth OF
the position OF the Democratic party on
that great question. The Senate bill
left no doubt as to the position OF
the Republican party. Both parties
conceded that there should be a reduc'
ton of revenue and to about the same
amount. Therefore the question oil the
amount OF taxation was not involved III
the discussion, but the question was rs
to the manner in which the reduction
should be made. He examined some OF
the details OF the Mills bill in order to
prove that in the proposed reductions
there were Determinations in favor OF
industries OF the Confederate States as
against industries oi the Northern States.
The effect OF the Mills bill, MIR. His
cock declared, could not be disguised.
The Senate bill was equally pronounced
in character and principle. 1t fairly
illustrated the Republican policy or
Protection, and when its provisions be-
came law it would defend the American
market against foreign competition. 1t
was not sectional. Industries North,
South, East and West were equally pro.
vided for in it. 1t was the opposite OF
the Mills bill. The Democracy had ten.
dercd the issue and every effort should
be made to mcetit fairly.
At the close OF Mr.. HiScoCk's remarks
Mr. Hale obtained the floor and the
Tariff bill went over till tomorrow.
Mr.. Edmunds appealed to Mr.. Berry
to withdraw his objection to the consid'
Grafton OF the bill for the benefit OF the
widow OF Chief Justice Waite. Mr..
Berry declined to withdraw his objec.
ton, stating that would be equivalent to
Il consent to the passage OF Il bill which
he considered thoroughly bad. Mr.. Ed
munds thcreupon gave notice that he
would tomorrow morning move TO take
up the bill for consideration.

To Arrange foe Debate on the Tariff Eli.
Probabilities of II Recess.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 0.-An Informal
conference OF Republican Senators was
held this morning to talk over the gen
cral situation and more especially to ar
range the course OF debate on the tariff
bill. The results were meHgrc, owing to
the doubt everywhere entertained
whether d quorum OF the Senate can be
held in Washington should the tariff
debate be protracted beyond next week.
A dozen or more Senators were named
who desire to make speeches, and Il list
Of Republicans was started which so far
includes the names OF HiscoCk, Cullom,
Platt, SpoOner, Aldrich and Teller. The
desire OF a number OF Senators, however,
to get away is very strong, and with the
system OF pairs prevailing in the Senate
aud always riGidly adhered to, every
absentee reduces the voting force by two.
In considering these matters it became
apparent that there would be great diili-
Guilty in keeping n voting quorum to act
upon amendments and finally upon the
bill. No action was taken in conference
and no definite policy was sketched, but
there is reason to believe that ii the
Senate finds itself for any length OF time
without q quorum, either IN adjourn
ment sine die or q recess for several weeks
will be taken, II, therefore, now seems
probable that this session will practically
come to an end next week or early the
week after, and that the tariff bill be left
for final action after election day.
