WAsHINeroN, April 20.-When the
senate as called to order today, Sher-
man, from the committee of foreign re-
lations, reported DILL for the correction
OF an error in the Bering sea bill, re-
Gently passed, by the substitution OF the
word 'excluaive" for "inclusive."
The PETER resolution for the appoint
meut OF reception committee Tor
Coxey's army OF the Commonweal, to
be known in senate parlance 80 "the
committee on communications" came
up few minutes before O'Clock. but
in those few minutes it received some
very rough handling.
Hawley, who dealt the blows, said he
would have preferred to have some OF
the dominant party in the senate take
the floor, for certainly the speech made
Yesterday by Allen of Nebraska ought
not to be allowed to go forth to the
country as representing in any degree
the views of the senate. He criticized
| Allen for his reference to the Common
veal army as "the people," and also Tor
his illusions to the district military un-
der command Of General Ordway, and
he vsntured to say General Ordway had
given more time to the study OF the
question than the senator, and that not
one step was being taken by him except
at the command of the civil authorities.
These men who were coming here did
not represent the general views OF the
people; they were not coming with the
intention of prostrating themselves at
the feet of congress-, but 10 impress
them by their presence.
In conclusion Hawley eaid there were
many other things in Aliens speech
which should be refuted, but he did not
propose to do it. 81 am sorry to say 1t, u
he continued; "but feel bonnd to say
it. that the speech OF the senator iron

and it would not require wide scop
to discover in it the microbes and bs
cilli OF anarchiBm."
Allen intended to reply to Hawley
but the time being up, the resolution
went over without action, and the tarii
bill being laid before the senate, Gal
linger OF New Hampshire spoke agains
the bill.
In the course of Gallinger'e speech
running controversy came up between
Gray of Delaware and Aldrich of Rhod
Island, the latter asserting and the for
mer denying that at recent elections tn,
people had expressed their reprobRtioI
of the kind of tariff reform now before
congress.
When Gray said the only way to settle
the dispute was by popular vote, Gal
linger asked If Gray would agree to post
pone action until the people could be
heard in November.
II would not dare go home," replied
Gray, "if did that thing"
Aldrich reminded Gray that the
Democratic press of the country had
had nothing but words of praise for the
two speeches in opposition to the bill
from the Democratic side of the cham
Der. Their appeal to put the bill in
shape to conform to the Democratic
policy had the hearty corporation ol
all the Democrats of the north.
THE senator from Rhode Isnnd is
building great superstructure on the
two speeches to which be alludes," re-
pied Gray, "but l understand bot b
these speeches, certainly the last,
were confined to discussion OF the in
come tax feature, which has about as
much relation to the tariff reform
measure demanded by the people of
1892 as An ukase Dy the Russian en-
peror, and if the senator from Rhode
Island builds any hope on that founds-
tion, he will have to sympathize with
his disappointment"
''I shall be very much surprised, "
said Aldrich, elf great many senators
on the opposite side do not soon come
to the conclusion that the income tax
is very important feature OF the bill. u
''Is the senator opposed to the income
tax ?" asked Gray.
Il am opposed to the income tax and
every other feature OF the tariff bill be.
fore the senate" replied Aldrich.
Gallinger was folio we'd by Mcmillan,
VINO said: "a comparison between the
Wilson bill as ii comes from the house
and the new Canadian tariff shows how
close an understanding must have ex.
listed between the trainers of the two
meaeures." He pointed out in detail
the terms which showed q parallel be.
tween the two bills.
Dolph followed in speech against the
bill, in which he incidentally paid 9
high tribute to ex-President Harrison.
At 5 O'Clock Dolph suspended his
speech and will conclude tomorrow.
The senate at 5 20 p. m. went into ex-
ecutiye session, and at 5 :55 adjourned.
