Possible tho House Tariff Hill May Pass
the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. l2.-When Sena-
tor Quay left the Capitol after the ad-
journmeEt of the senate, he had almost
decided 10 withdraw his motion to re-
commit the tariff bill, or at least not to
press it. This was the result Of the
importantly of several Republican SEN
atOrs, who, after canvassing the situa-
ton among the Democratic senators,
had ascertained to their satisfaction
that while there would be solid vote
on the part of both Democrats and
Populists against recommittal, there
would be no difficulty in getting a COM
paratively large vote on the Democratic
side Of the chamber against the free
coinage substitute for the bill.
viii Defeat tho Substituts.
This turn in the situation has led to
an active canvass of the probable vote
on the substitute and on the original
bill in case the substitute is voted
down. This survey has necessarily
been incomplete, but the result is such
as to cause the opponents Of the substi.
tute to believe that it can be defeated.
They count upon the entire anti-silver
Republican vote on the Republican
side, besides the votes of many of the
silver Republicans, who will not agree
to displace the tariff bill with silver,
and also upon getting large majority,
if not all, the anti silver Democrats
against the substitute. With the sub
stitute defeated the vote would recur
on the tariff bill proper. The friends
of this measure are
Not So sure Of Its Success
as are the antagonists Of the defeat of
that measure. They are led to believe
that there will be solid Democratic
and Populist vote against the tariff
bill and they also recall that Senator
Baker Of Kansas declared in caucus his
intention of opposing the tariff bill in
the senate.
In the event of Mr.. Bakers adhering
to this determination, it would be
necessary to secure two votes froIu
either Democratic or Populist sources
to secure the passage Of the measure.
There are some who believe these can
be secured. The vote, will, in any
event be very close. and it is SO doubt
full at this time as to render q predic-
ton a mere guess.
