Laid Before the House-Democratic SEN
afors Are Bound to Prepare the supple
mental Tariff Hills
WASHINGTON, Dec. I2-Thcre is n well
defined movement on the Democratic side
of the senate to get up the supplemental
tariff bills Notwithstanding the decision
of the caucus of last week to give the pref
crcnce to other measures and virtually TO
shave the tariff bills,
Senators Vest and Berry are engineer
ing this movement and there was strong
indications during the morning hour that
they considered themselves strong enough
TO move. Abscntees We're sent for. and
the senator's interested were evidently on
the qui vivc. The fnct, however, that SEN
ator Morrill, had given notice of n speech
cut them off in the morning hour. and ut
2 O'Clock the Nicarziguan canal bill was
taken up as unfinished business, thus
causing them 10 further postpone their
efforts The opponents of the bill express
the opinion that IL will be impossible to
get the bills up.
1t is understood that the sugar bill
would have been given the preference IL
the tariff bill had obtained hearing 1t is
now considered probable that there will
be an effort to-day to displace the Nicara-
guam bill with the sugar bill. This effort
might have been made yesterday except
for courtesy to Senator Dolph, who had
given notice of n speech ON the canal bill.
The struggle over the house bill to au-
thoriZc railroad pooling terminated
by the passage of the bill by the decisive
vote of 1856 To $40. The Cooper substitute,
which placed the entire control of the CON
ditions of pooling in the hands of the in
terstatc commerce commission and gave
ing pooling orders was defeated, as were
all subsequent efforts to amend and ~
commit it, and the bill passed as reported
from the committee. Several attempts
Were made To defeat the bill by filibustcr-
ing, but they, too. were unsuccessful
MIR. Springer introduced in the house
Secretary Carlislc's banking bill. IL was
ordered to BE- printed and referred TO the
committee ON banking and currency.
Champ Clark's Second Effort.
In the morning hour Mr.. Mallory again
called up the bill To promote the efficiency
OF the revenue cutter service, which pro-
vokcd Mr.. Champ Clark's remarks ON
Saturday. and once more the Missourian

intention Of talking the bill to death. The
bill was almost dead. he began. lie was
looking into its open grave, and he pro-
posed to consume his time in eulogizing
the heroes of the border states on both
sides. He proposed, he said. to lift them
to the highest pinnacle of glory. MIR
Clark then took off his cuffs, and for -
minutes kept the house in IA roar with hu-
mornus and stirring anecdotes of "ob-
scure heroes.
He paid rough and ready but eloquent
tributes Ia the gallant deeds of Silas Ad-
ans of kentucky, General Sicklcs of New
