Washington, Aug, 1.-THE long
struggle over the tariff bill came to a
close at q O'clock last night when the
house, by a vote of Isl to 1o5, decided
"a discharge the house conferees from
further consideration Of the bill, to re-
cede from its opposition to the GA SEN
ate amendments, and TO agree to the
same.
1t vas II complete victory for the
senate. The house made an absolute
surrender.
The result grew directly out of the
sensational course Of events at the
senate and capitol precipitated by
Senator Hill Friday. Up to that time
the house conferecs had stood firm
against the senate amendments espe-
Tally OH the three disputed schedules,

ter an voice of the house was for war
war to the end. But the indica lions
we're that the democrats of the sen
ate might be unable to longer hold d
majority Of the votes in line for even
the senate bill ami the fact that the
bin was in desperate jeopardy
forced the house democrats to imme-
date action.
The scenes in the chamber through
out the day and evening were exciting
and at times sensational.
The principal speeches We're made by
Chairman Wilson, and Speaker Crisp
on the one hand and EX-SpeaSer Reed
and Mr.. Burrows. on the other. Bourke
Cochran and Mr. Tarsney, both demo
Gratis of the ways aud means commit
tee, delivered scathiug and sensational
speeches denouneing the surrender of
the house as cowardy and indefensi-
BE. The speaker replied to Mr.. Cock
ran with so much temper tlrat the lat
ter took it as a personal affront, al
though the speaker disclaimed such an
intention, and made vicious lunge at
Speaker Crisp.
There was no attempt on the part of
the democratic leaders to claim vic
tory, They all admitted they accepted
the inevitable, iustifylng their action
on the ground that the senate bill was
better than the Mckinley bill.
