CARLIsLEs VIEWS.
creater Carlisle says the committee will
,5r+ IN favor of non concurrence in the
Sanate substitute, and that the House will
majority vote sustain the committee.
~ M event, he thinks, will the House
odont the Senate substitute. Its internal
~avenue features are not as acceptable to
+ba internal revenue men as those of the
Mills bill, and in every particular it is dis
+inctlv inferior. The House will stand by
its own bill The committee on appropria-
fins will rroba lly postpone action on the
Cowles bill until the House committee on
1rays and means disposes of the Senate sub
stjtute for the Mills bill.
MR.. FORAN VIEWS.
Mr. Foran of Ohio, consistent protec-
+ionist on the democratic side and a mem
her of the appropriations committee, is out
in an interview opposing a report from the
committee on the Cowles bill. 81 do II {
think" he said, that anyone will deny that
lam as advanced protecti0nist as there
is on our side, but | do not think the COM
Ittee on appropriations has any busines, TO
meddle with the matter at all. | snail pro-
nose to lay the bill on the table in the COM
mttee, and let it stay there. The bill does
not lelong to us. 1t was not sent to us in
GOOD faith, and it would not be j Stice to
ollr party to take advantage of the action
Of O " q few democrats with the other
party.
NO BUSINESS TO MEDDLE.
81 don't know what the committee may
do but feel that we nave no business to
NEEDLE with the matter" As to the propo-
stiJn that some democrats intend to vote
for the Senate bill Mr.. Foran said, speaking
as q consistent protectiOnis6, that he should
not vote for Senate bill and did not see
how any democrat could. The House bill.
he sand, hid been open to the charge of
sactonaisn, but he considered the Senate
bill far more objectiona5ly sectional.
NO HOUSE CONFERENCES.
So far there has been nothing like for
nal conference On either side In the House
upon the subject, although the members OF
the ways and means cO1nmitte9 individually
4 have been thOughtfully considering the
matter. Chairman Mills to-day remarked
with sarcastic infexion in his voice that
Il the House did not refer the Senate bill
to the commi tee on appropriated IS, or TO
tlec1mmi,tee on war claims, or to some com
mlttee Otle~ than that on ways and means
ard decided 10 place the responsibility for
It's tre7tiHo't upon himself, he would got
bis committee toge, her and determine what
Was best 10 be done. He dit not believe
that democ attic caucus would be necas-
Sarr to reinforce the comm ttee's decision.
Ar Mills did not seem to entertain the idea
tIat the cOmmi tee would ever report favor
ABLY upon the Senate bill, and when it was
suggested that it might be argued by some
democrats that It would be bstter to take
haiI loaf than no bread, he replied en-
llalcEliy that It was not half a loaf that
W' senate offered, as the bill did not
promise to reduce the revenue at all.

.-l-aa ta admitted that the subject had
OseI informally discussed by him with
Va republicans, said that he did not see
VA. 'aa republicans had any part TO
!e.,"m ID the disposition of tne bill. He
Iayle expected the ways and means com
Alttee TO report the Senate bill ad-
,rs7Iy, and that it would lie on
lhe calendar, never reaching the
u.Ie'ence stage. Touching Mr.. MIL
tt"t-cll.on that the bill might be referred
o1 '"o committee on appropriations, or some
M - committee than the committee on
tS'ts ana means, Mr.. Mckinley said that
s'.4 ro g7!iv' ell the republicans would not favor
