TO END LEGISLATION
ACTION MAY DE TAKEN THAT WILL.
CAUSE AN ADJOURNMENT.
Republicans Decide to Support q
Resolution Declaring hat Further
Tariff Liquidation 10 Not Advisable
ut This session.

Washington, Aug. Ex-senator Muir
ply offered a resolution that there
should he no further legislation on the
tariff at this session, in view of the
Carlisle letter. 1t went over until to-
day. After futile attempt to place
Senator White on the finance COM
lnittee the senate adjourned, when a
caucus OF Republican senator's was
held. Senator Aldrich brought up the
question of Republican interference
With the selection Of Democrat on
the finance Committee, when Senator
Pettigrew stated that there was no
need of discussing the question, as there
were eight Republicans who would not
agree to it, and it would result in
breaking up all party discipline in the
senate. That matter was then dropped.
AS to taking action on the filing Of
the vacancy the general feeling was
that no party action was necessary.
The resolution of Senator Murphy was
discussed and it was decided that the
Republicans would support it in a
modified form, which would not specify
the tariff legislation, but would state
that in view of the fact that the session
was so near an end that it is impracti-
cable to attempt to pass any contested
legislation during the remainder Of the
session, and that it is the desire of
congress to adjourn as soon as possible.
It is probable that if vote can be
had upon this resolution that it will
secure enough Democratic votes to
pass.
The Republicans claim that any spe-
cial tariff bill to- which there is an OBJ
lection will be- debated until it is de-
feated by lack of quorum. and that
1t is useless to make any attempt to
secure the passage of any of those
how before the senate. Some Of the
Republican senators present expressed
the opinion that in view Of the position
taken by Senator Hill on the appoint
ment to fill the finance committee va
cancy 1t would be proper return for
the Republican senator's to support any
resolution that he may offer to-day in
regard to the appointment, thinking it
probable that he might desire to sub
stitute the name of some other senator
for that of Mr.. White. When Mr.. Hill
was apprised of this action he said he
should not attempt to substitute some
one else because he had no personal
objection to Mr. White. Republican
senators express the opinion that the
resolution amended as they are willing
to accept it, will pass by u majority Of
l or Is. The resolution probably will
be amended so as to strike out all ref
erence to Secretary Carlisle's letter and
to put the reason for no further legis-
lation OH the ground that none is prac-
ticable, instead of as the original reso-
luton has it, that none is desirable
Prominent conservative Democrats
senators We're appraised after the eau
Gus adjourned of its action, and it is
understood that they acquiesce in the
proposed notifications of the Murphy
resolution. The resolution will proba-
bly, be adopted late to-day, and if it
does, congress will adjourn some time
next week.

Texarkana needs and should have
an adequate sewerage system.
There is no time for delay and our
city councilmen are fully alive to
the fact. If one company does not
put in sewerage within a given
time and in accordance with the
plans and specifications adopted,
another will. So there is no need
for any one to feel discouraged over
the matter as an improvement so
badly needed and universally de-
sired will not long be delayed.
