in Detail
Tariff Bill Passed.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Ihe long
struggle over the tariff bill came to a
close at 6 o'clock yesterday evening,
when the house, by vote of 182 to
1O7, decided to discharge the house con-
ferees from further consideration of
the bill, recede from its opposition to
the 634 senate amendments and agree
to the same.
The whole question was precipitated
at the caucus held just before the
house convened yesterday, at which,
after thorough review of the situa-
ton and speeches in favor of receding
by Speaker Crisp, Chairman Wilson
and others, it was decided to take the
senate bill, and Immediately after
wards pass separate bills placing coal,
iron ore. sugar and barbed wire on the
free list, and by SO doing place the
house on record and at least partially
overcome the humiliation involved in
its defeat The programme arranged
in the caucus was carried out to the
letter in the house after an lrOnclad
special order.
The scenes in the chamber through
out the day and evening were exciting
and at times sensational. The galleries
were packed and the members ap-
plauded and cheered their respective
leaders to the echo. Under the terms
Of the order but two hours were al
lowed for debate on the main PROPOSE
ton to recede and agree to the senate
amendments to the tariff bill par
lamentary skirmish preceded the
pitched battle, but points Of order
raised bv the republicans were swept
aside The speaker ruled the house
with an iron hand.
The principal speeches for and
against the main proposition were
made BY Chairman Wilson and Speaker
Crisp on the one hand and ex-Speaker
Reed and Mr.. Burrows on the other.
