would cause IT, The opposition to the
bill realizes that there IL no POSSIBLE
ity Of preventing an adoption of tho
report and It's present purpose IL only
to secure what advantage It can by the
exhibition Of what 1t claims are the
inconsistencies OF the measure. II IL

port thus assured, the democrats prob

made by Messrs. Jones fArk), Butler.

his Indignation At the scctIonallsm
which had inspired the conference
committee. He gave not to the
southern senators that II they would
stand by him they could hold the SEN
ate until next December, which was
preferable to submitting TO this
change. Mr.. Bacon characterized the
restoration of cotton ties and cotton
bGRging to tie dutia1le list as indefens-
iDle favoritlsm of the north against the
south. Mr. Teller criticised tho con-
ference committee for not carving out
the will of the senate. II vas the
first time, he said. that committee
han surrendered the interests Of the
senate without asking for Instructions.
He bad reason to believe that the mem
beers Of the conference committee sup

FORT should be rejected and sent TO
