FAIR PROGRESS
MADE ON WOOL
But the Debate 90 Rates Provoked
Some Republican AntagOnism.
A VOTE FINALLY REACHED
SiqnaI Triumph Of Allison in the Adoption
Of His Substitutes for Rates FIXED
BY the Committee.

washington. June 22.-tspecial to the
Astorian.)-An exciting debate marked
the consideration Of the wool schedul-
which began in the senate today. It de-
veloped the first serious disagreement on
the republican side Of the chamber, and
led TO a warm personal exchange between
Carter and Foraker on the one hand. and
Allison. In charge OF the bin. on the other.
Foraker asserted that the agreement coz
cernlng the rates on certain wools was
being violated. and that under the e'r-
cumstances every senator would be free
to act for himself. Alllson, with great
vehemence. declared that he could NOT
be driven by threats.
Teller also spoke against he delay,
and took occasion TO say he would never
vote for the bill unless the Objectionable
features were eliminated
Aside from this stormy interruption, fair
progress was made on the wool schedule
The duty on first-class wool was agreed
10 at 10 cents per pound, and on second
class wool at II cents, whlch IS between
house ard senate rates in eacn case. The
rates on thlrd-class wooIs-Sent over.
Mantle submitted an amendment cover
ing the three classes Of wool. Prepared
by the Wool Growers Association and
spoke briefly thereon.
He said his amendments were the re-
suit OF careful investigation by the men
most familiar with the subject. and as
serted that as the manufacturing intefes,s
were securing the rates they desired from
the pending bill he believed the greet
wool industry OF the West should be al
lowed TO say what the rates on wool
should be.
Paragraphs on wool were then agreed
to as reported up to paragraph s55. which
was stricken out at AllisOn's request.
It referred to skirted woods importel in
1880 and prior thereto.
This brought the senate to the rates on
the three classes OF wool On the first
class the house rate was Il cents, the SEN
ate committee rate cents. AAis, n
moved TO substitute 10 cents per pound.
On the second-class wool, the house rate
was u cents. and the committee rate 9
cents. Allison moved TO substitute Il
cents.
Mills demanded a separate vote on each
proposition. and the first vote was taken
on Allisons motion to make the rate 10
cents on frst-class wool. II was adopted,
yeas 55. noes IS Butler, Carter. Clark,
Foraker. Heitfeldt, Mcbride. Mantle, Pet
tigrew, Shoup Stewart Teller Turner and
Warren voted in the negative.
The announcement of the vote was the
signal for an unexpected outburst on
the republican side Of the chamber.
