WASHINGTON. April 2L.-There was
a good attendance in the senate to-day
when the garei fell. There was num-
Der OF the visiting Pennsylvania labor
ing men in the gallery, wearing the
badge OF the delegation.
; Senator Carr. of Wyoming, called MP
house bill for the protection of birds
ana animals in Yellowstone park, and
asked Immediate consideration for it.
Before final action could be taken, the
morning hour expired, and the tariff
Dill was laid before the senate. Sena-
Tor Dolph obtained the floor and re-
Sumed his speech. which was inter-
Fupted by adjournment Yesterday.
Z The workmen's delegates in the gal
teries closely followed every word and
move on the floor of the senate, and had
The pleasure of hearing Senator Quay
Eead their petitions and memorials in
the senate and plead the cause of pro-
lection.
: Senator Dolph had yielded to Senator
Quay for the presentation of the me-
mortal, although it WAS contrary to the
agreement for the consideration of the
tariff 10 admit any outside matter.
Unanimous consent was accorded SEN
tetor Quay, ana he read the papers from
his seat on the floor. Senator Cameron
sent to the desk another petition from
NVorkingmen which was not read. After
the presentation the greater portion of
the
DELEGATES IN THE GALLERY
filed out ana Senator Dolph continued
his speech.
I A message was received from the
president transmitting Hawaiian cor
Fespondence.
& Senator Dolph took up the question of
papermakIng anu wood pulpmaking i'll
the state OF Oregon and appealed to the
senate not to destroy this industry of his
state Senator Gray asked whether he
wanted to levy tribute on the state OF
Delaware in order that Oregon might
have monopoly of the paper business.
/ II did not say | wanted to have
monopoly Of any industry for my state.''
replied Mr.. DOiph, adding 1.-The senator
was not paying att' ntiOn, but is simply
trying TO get into the Record"
He went on tn say that Oregon used
great quantity of goods from Delaware,
and he paid nigh tribute to the In
duStTy of that state.
Senator Gray thanked him for his
complimentary words about Delaware,
and at the same time assured him that
he had not been actuated by a desire to
get into the Record. The present de-
nf afT IN Dy,Fo
ware and other states, he said, was due
60 the elimination of thirty years of
high protection. We were living under
the highest protective laws the country
had ever known. There had not been
g single industry of Delaware benefited
by the Mckinley bill. and he predicted
that upon the passage of
THE PENDING BILL
prospeetsall over the country would
brighten. The senator from Delaware
might preach that doctrine. said Mr..
DOlph, but there were thousands of
wOrkingmen out of employment i'll his
state who would convince him of the
fallaey Of that doctrine.
Senator Gray closed the incident bV
declaring that they were out of employ
ment because the Mckinley law was in
force. and Senator Dolph resumed his
speech.
There was some discussion between
AIR. DOlph and MIR. Allen, when Mr..
Chandler entered the debate with a
suggestion that there was no necessity
for hhrrying, as the senator from Ne
braSka had shown Il cOmmendabIe
desire to learn something about the
tariff since he came TO the senate. and
he thought Senator DOlpn should
q oil nf bi
his thirst for information.
Mr.. Delphi agreed 10 yield to Senator
Allen. but added that next September
when the thermometer registered 100
deg, wnen the senate met at 10 o'clock
and held night sessions. and when the
speeches on the tariff were getting
prOsy, prOliX and nninteTeSting, il would
be time enough Tor Senator Allen to ex-
Aibt Impotence, but at present all was
harmony and good fellowship.
In considering the income tax CUES
ton difference OF opinion was diScoy-
cred
AMONG THE REPUBLICANS.
Mr.. Doiph had given his experience in
The collecting OF the income tax in Ore
gon. when it was in force. when not
more than One-tenth OF the tax was col
lected.
Mir. Teller rep. Col.) inquired
WucIll6I LLGtG hdS tl6 same QlTIicuLtV
about collecting the tax i'll England.
Mr.. Dolph said he had no information
from England. But he knew the tax
had been evaded IN this country, and
that the people would commit perjury
to escape it.
Mr.. Teller said that his experience
had been very different from that of
Mr.. Dolph. He did not think it was
evaded any more than the personal
property tax. LII Colorado, where an
income tax was III force. there was nos
as much difficulty in collecting it as
shere was in collecting the personal
property tax He did not think il was
3 good argument against bill to say
shat the people were too dishonest to
have the tax collected. In his opinion
II was the most Just and equitable tax
that could be collected. 1t might be I'M
profitable, however.
Mr.. President" he continued, ear
neStly. Il want TO say 10 the senator
Erom New Hampshire (dr. Chandler.
who mad Just expressed the same views
rs Mr.. DOlph), and to the senator from
Oregon and 10 any other senator who
makes the claim that an income tax
cannot be collected, because the people
are dishonest, that it is Slanderous to
the American people. It's an assump-
lion that the American people, for a
mere plILdnce, VIII commit perjury
Mr.. Chandler and Mir. Doiph both
jumped to their feet to reply, and both
were discussing the question while Mr..
Teller lay back in his chair and smiled
