WASHINGTON CITY, JAN I9-There has
been some discussion recently of the posi-

bill to later day than that set by the sem
ate-Jan. p The senate met Yesterday
morning at y o'clock. and again this morn
ing at H. Monday there will be night ses-

most impossible to come to final vote at
the time fixed-l o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
The sugar bounty clause has been disposed
OF. 1t has furnished the senate with topic
for two days The wool and wooden sched-
ule and the lumber schedule are still to be
considered. The members of the committee
having the bill In charge adhere to their
original position, and say that the vote will
be taken on Tuesday as agreed There are
other members of the senate, however, who
say that they believe there will be "a post
ponement for day or two
The agreement under which the senate is
proceeding is not recognized hy the rules of
procedure and can not be enforced No I'M
derstanding OF this character has ever been
broken, but the Republican senators have
been proceeding with some caution for fear
that some Democratic senator might be
tempted to break through the agreement
and thus upset all the plans they have made
The friends of Senator QUAY and Senator
Stanford said yesterday that although these
senators are slightly disaffected they will
vote for the bill No one assumes to speak
for Senator Cameron. There is no fear ap
parent among Republican senators that the
bill will fail
