back the House bill to extend the census
law so as to require information to be OBJ
tanned from unincorporated express COM
panies. Passed.
Edmunds, from the judiciary committee,
reported an amendment to the river and
harbor bill. He explained that its purpose

United States. Laid on the table and or
dered printed.
Edmunds presented a motion for q change
of rules by limiting the debate on the tariff
bill. Laid en- the table and ordered printed.
Blair also offered resolution for such a
change of rules as viii permit the previous
question to be moved after paragraph has
been considered two days, that some dispo-
sition may be made of it.
The tariff bill was then taken up, the
| pending question being on Vests amend
ment Offered yesterday reducing the duty
on tin plates from 2-10 cents per pound to
| L cent, present rate.
| Morgan resumed his argument against
the increased duty provided in the para
graph.
Abiding to Edmund's motion to limit de-
bate on other propositions of likeIcharacter,
| Morgan said no Democratic Senator de-
sired to prevent the passage of the bill.
They had merely attempted to have full
and free discussion, which had not taken
place in the House and which was choaked
off by the rules of that body and their ad-
ministration.
Daniel spoke of the proposed in
crease of duty as another step in the re
lentless and memorable way in which the
Republican party was engaged against
the agricultural and producing classes o.
the country. Referring to the proposition
TO limit debate, Daniel said that such gag
rule would be fitting wind-up II

Senate. Those WHO spoke for the farmers
We're begagged like CULVER and were be
told to speak their five minutes and g
home. Shame" he exclaimed, upon yol
American Senators if you can hear such
suggestion with pleasure or without indlg
nation

ment was to be offered imposing duty, Of
} and after the lst of January 1892, on blacl
oxide of tin and on bar, block and pig tin

Aldrich accented to the correctness of tn
statement.
Moody said there was no provision in tn
9 bill of more Importance to the people of hi
own state and to large portion of the pee
! pie of the United States than the provisio
: that would impose duty OF cents
pound on metallic tin. Within six year
t the most extensive and probably riches

in the Black Hills, South Dakota, an
Wyoming. Not only was the tin there, bu
the iron for tin plate and coal out of whic
coke was to be made for fuel to work witt
; Whatever he could do to create or develo
