OUTLOOK FOR THE WEEK.
JUST PROBABLE THAT THE TAR
IFF BILL NAY PASS.
When it. Reaches the House it VIII
Immediately be Sent to Confer
ence-Senate viii Meet Today.

Washington. July 4-The outlook for
the wesi. in the senate is quite uncer-
tain. There is every probability that
the tariff bill VIII be passed, but
whether early or late in the week is by
no means certain. The various pro-
visions for stamp tax. for q beet suga
bounty. and for the suppression OF
trusts threaten 10 develop considerl BILE
debate. and there is a prospect Of gen
eral speeches by Senators Bate, Mills,
Chiffon, Allen and others. Senator Al
lison mas given notice Of an effort to
secure night sessions Monday or Tues
cay. The present indications are that
there viii be a determined effort to
force the committee on finance 10 re-
sore the sugar bounty provisions, and
uHon the success or failure of this effort
probably largely will depend the length
of time yet 10 be consumed in the sen
ate.
When the tariff bill comes over TO
the house this week. the programme is
to send il immediately TO conference.
The minority viii make no opposition 10
this if the Republicans VIII assure tiIem
reasonable time for debate when The
bill is reported back 10y the conferees.
TIE Republican leaders express their
assent. though no determination has
yet been made of how long a reason
able" time Is. Mr.. Bailey thinks three
or four days VIII be sufficient. In view
Of the fact that the bill may return 40
the house any dsy, the order Tor ses-
sionS only on Mondays and Tt.nrsdavs
vii probably be revoked tomorrow, or
a recess viii be taken from day 20 day
until The bill passes the senate.
The Republican members Of the SEN
ate committee on finance held a session
today and decided to offer no more
amendments 10 the tariff bill, and also
not te reintroduce the beet sugar
amendment. IL is understood. how
ever that the committee viii make no
united or determined effort 20 prevent
the acceptance of the amendment as
oifered by Mr.. Allen, but that Repub-
lican senators viii be left free to sup

Indications now are that a majority of

bounty provision was authorized by /
