Tariff In the Senate.
The debate on the tariff bill began IN the
senate Tuesday last with crowded gall
leries and large attendance of senators
and tariff leaders of the house. Senator
Aldrich Of Rhode Island, who has charge
Of the tariff bill, had the measure laid be-
fore the senate and took the door for the
opening speech. The Republican side Of
the door showed an almost solid repre-
sentation, there being three or four vacant
seats. The Democrats also presented full
ranks, and the scattered seats Of the Pop
ulists were occupied with but one excep-
ton.
Senator Aldrich spoke for almost an
hour and . quarter, adopting an easy con-
versational style. Without making in.
vidious distinctions between the two bills,
he clearly stated as the belief Of the finance
committee that the house bill would not
yield revenue adequate for the needs OF the
government.
Senator Vest of Missouri, one of the
Democratic members of the finance COM
mittee, followed with statement in oppO-
sition to the bill. He spoke Of the dangers
of putting up taxes on an Overburdened
people when there was balance Of $780,
0oO, 600 in the treasury, criticised the sched-
niles Ia detail, declaring that some OF them
were prohibitive.
Senator Cannon Of Utah, silver Repub-
lican. closed the debate for the day, by
urging that the protection should be SO
distributed as to aid the farmers.
