The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1897-06-24

Washington, June Is. - The senate
made greater progress on the tariff
bill than on any day since the debate
opened. The entire schedules covering
twenty pages were completed, namely.
schedules H. on spirits, wines and
beverages, and I, on manufactured
cotton goods. This brings the senate
to the flax schedule with the important
wool schedule standing next. The por-
ton Of tn, bill passed is substantially
the same as reported, all committee
changes being unimportant, while the
opposition amendments Of Mr.. Jones
of Arkansas and Mr.. Vest were sys-
tematically rejected by majorities
varying from 5 to 10. Mr.. Allison Sc
cured the addition of a new para graph
to the cotton schedule with a view to
compromising cotton manufacturers
for the recent action Of the senate in
placing raw cotton on the dutiahle list.
In paragraph 2S9, on motion of Mr..
Allison, the house provision was re-
stored. The remaining parag graphs on
spirits 600 to 293 inclusive) were
agreed to as reported without oppo-
sition.
The wine paragraph led to some dis
cussion. That on champagne and 9th
er sparkling wines was agreed to as
reported. The committee paragraph
ing out the provision for 81 additional
duty Of cents on each bottle or jug
and the substitution of provision that
the filled bottles or jugs shall pay the
same duty as if empty.

uuJleS as proposed would range from
40 per cent to 105, whereas they had
heretofore been free. He moved to
strike out the entire section.
On roll call the senate accepted Mr..
Vests amendment striking out para
graph $50 in regard to floor mattings,
the vote standing % to o. Messrs.
Carter and Hansbrough (straight Re-
publicans), Mantle, Pettigrew and
Teller (silver Republicans voted with
the Democrats Oh this motion.
Paragraphs BAL Cute grain bags and
burlaps) and 342 (bagging for cotton,
gunny cloth, etc., were considered to-
gether and aroused some discussion.
A motion to strike out the two para
graphs in regard to burlaps and cloth
for cotton bagginS was Carried-31 to
%. The effect Of the vote is to leave
these articles on the free list.
Going back, Mr.. Jones moved to
fabrics of single jute yarns). This
motion also prevailed-29 to %.
Mr.. Allison, in behalf of the COM
mittee, proposed a modification Of
paragraph 344, in regard to woven
fabrics, reducing the rate on articles
containing between 60 and 12O threads
from cents to 23-4 cents per yard;
on those between 12O and $50 threads
from cents to 6 cents, and on those
| of more than 1870 threads from 10
| cents to 8 cents. The committee
amendments were accepted. The next
paragraph, 345, was agreed to without
division. This concluded the hemp
schedule and brought the senate face
to face with the wool schedules.
After the passage, at the instance of
Mr.. Mantle. Of bill providing for the
erection Of a public building at Butte,
Mont, to cost 100000, the senate ad-
| journed.
Washington, June %. - The senate
made giant stretches on the tariff bill
covering fifty-six pages and establish.
ing a record for progress during the
tariff debate. The last two schedules
of the dutiable list covering paper and
mend SundrieS, were completed with
the exception of the paragraphs or
hides, gloves, coal and some lesser ar
tlcles, which went over. This ad
vanced the senate to the free list
Which was taken up at p. M, anC
completed in three hours. Early il
the day the wool and silk schedules
Went over, with an agreement tha
wool would be taken up tomorrow
After that the tobacco schedule, the
reciprocity provisions and the interna
revenue portions Of the bill, as we'll a:
the many isolated paragraphs passed
over, remain to be considered. The
progress was SO marked, however, tina
for the first time there was a feeling
that the end was not far off.
There was little debate, the mail
topic Of discussion being matches ant
fuses. On the latter item an amend
ment by Mr.. Pettigrew reducing tn
rate to 10 per cent came within on
vote Of passing against the protest o
the finance committee, the vote bein,
a tie-24 to "a. While the free list wa

Washington, June 19.-The tariff bill
came to a halt in the senate, less than
one page OF the flax schedule being
disposed of. The debate Grifted into
political chs Gnels, Senators Bacon,
Vest. Jones (Ark.) and Iillnlan taking
part in an exposition Of Democratic
doctrine on the tariff. 1t led to sew
eral lively exchanges, during which the
cleaning of political dirty linen was
frequently referred to. Mr.. Tillman's
remarks We're made in his character
istic vehemence, and at one point he
frankly stated concerning the tariff
that if there was to be stealing he
wanted his share for South Carolina.
The consideration of the tariff bill
vas recumed at schedule J, relating to
flax, hemp and jute and manufacturers
thereof. Mr. Vest made test contest
at tie outset, moving to strike out the
first paragraph, flax straw at IS per
ton. He said the whole flax schedule
was based Oh the idea that we could
produce the flax, but he denied this.
Ireland was the only country in which
the flax for linen could be successful
~ produced, and he declared that the
Minnesota fax had not proved salts
factory. The amendment was rejected
is to 2S-A1r. McE1ery voting with
the Republicans. Mr.. Allison, il charge
of the bill, withdrew the senate
amendment on flax, not hacked or
dressed, leaving the house rate of 1
cent per pound stand. He also with
| drew the committee amendment on
| dressed flax, leaving the house rate OF
| 3 cents.
Late in the day Mr. Morgan pro-
| posed sweeping amendn ent to place
10 per cent I'D yaloreln duty on all
articles now On the free list with few
stated exceptions. In supporting the
amendment Mr. Morgan called atten-
ton to the singular fact that the in
come tax feature Of the Wilson bill is
not repealed and can be inforced by a
| change of the personnel Of the supreme
| court of the United States.
