told them that the committee would
hear them, but that the committee
had no stenOgrapher and was not
prepared to make a record of the pro-
ceedings- The interview closed with
out completing the arrangements for
the hearing

sent their arguments before that COM

the committee to grant them hear
ing, but they could see the individual

after the tariff bill should be disposed
of in about two weeks the committee
might give attention to their request
for formal hearing.

WASHINGTON. June lathe abso-
lutte blockade of the tariff bill in the
senate yesterday was in marked con-
trast with the wonderful progress in
the senate Monday. Not cog was
turned. The entire eight hours was
devoted to set speeches preliminary
to the consideration of the wool
schedule. Mr.. Quay, who has been
quiescent for five weeks, resumed the
delivery of his speech, which has al
ready occupied four days, and after
speaking for four hours his manu-
script seemed unappreciably dimin-

motion, however, was without special
