The Week In the Senate.
II II expected on both sides Of the senate
cham ber that the wooden schedule will be
reached during the present week In the
consideration OF the tariff bill.
There IL tacit agreement among the
Repu blicAn and Democratic leaders that
the debate shall be continued under the
five-minute rule on the cotton manu-
features and fax schedules. Senator
Aldrich expressed the opinion that these
schedules would be disposed Of with very
little delay. He said that the under
standing for five-miuute speeches would
not be continued when the wooden sched-
ule should be reached. and he expressed
the opinion that three or four days de-
bate would be necessary before the wool
and wooden schedule is acted upon.
Some Of the Democratic leaders think
the schedule may be disposed Of in two
days, but this schedule will develop one
Of the most important debates connected
with the bill.
Next TO the duty on sugar free wool has
attracted more attention than any other
item on the bill, and there can be no
doubt that many Repu blioan senators
will make speeches vigorously sssailing
the Democratic position.
The Democrats, while not expecting or
hoping TO secure consideration of this
schedule under the FIVE minutss' rule, are
pevsrthslsss hopeful that they ssn make
an arrangement for the hxinR Of a definite
number Of days for the debate
Late night sessions will be resorted to
only In case Of evident dst~ssn i:.at!cn on
the part of II publican senators 10 delay
a vote. This is not expected on any II the
items which precede the wooden schedule;
nor do many senators think IL will be uu-
dertaken in that connection. The Demo
cratic leaders, however, regard 1t best to
be prepared to meet the emergency n 1t
should present itself.
They desire. also, IL IL should prove
that there are To be an unexpected number
OF speeches on the wooden schedule, to
work them of a. rapidly AS possible, by
resort to night sessions for that purpose.
