THE COMING TEST ON FREE
SUGAR.
Many Republicans Satisfied with the
Senate Tariff Bill.

Senate Tariff Bill.
WASHINGTON, May 30.-The fight on
the sugar schedule Of the tariff bill is
close at hand. The lumber echedule
will be finished to morrow. possibly
early enough to permit the beginning
of the crucial test in the afternoon.
The Republicans have had several
conferences to day for the purpose Of
ascertaining whether a united front for
free sugar can be presented. 1t is said
to night that several Republicans have
expressed their unwillingness to vote
to put sugar on the free list, even
though the result might be the defeat
Of the tariff bill. 1t is an open secret
that a number Of Republican Senators
will be Satisfied to have the bill pass
in it's present form. These men realize
the Mckinley law does not meet the
hopes of many who favored it four
years ago., and that the reductions con-
tanned IN the proposed law would be
very beneficial to many American in
tereets. Feeling as they do these men
may be expected not to go out Of their
way to aid a movement which might
endanger the final passage of the bill.
They will, of course, vote against the
perfected measure, but with the knoWl-
edge that it will nevertheless becomea
law, and that the country will receive
/ the benefits which they would like to
see conferred.
The Republican leaders have en-
countered this spirit to day, and they
| are not at all hopeful of the result Of
| their attempt to smash he revised
sugar schedule and thus ALLEVIATE from
the bill the votes of the Louisiana Sena-
tors, without which it would be de-
feated.
The attitude of Mr.. Allen and Mr..
Kyle continues to perplex the Repub-
licans. Mr.. Allen has talked on both
sides Of the question, but the Demo
Gratis feel confident that In view of the
many concessions made on articles
in which his constituents are interested
he viii conclude that it will be good
policy to stand by the bill. Mr.. Irby
continues to plag the sphinx, and it
seems likely that his assertion that no
one will know his intention until his
name is called when the final vote is
taken will prove true.
Democratic Senators who have an
vassed the situation to day say that
they have at no time felt more hope.
full Of the speedy passage of the bill
than they do now. They believe that
when the Republican fail to place sugar
on the free list they will offer no further
objections to naming the day for the
final vote.
