Washington. June 2S.-The Senate
made good progress on the tariff bill
today, dlsposing of the paragraphs
relating to hides. which have been the
source Of much controversy. As final
" agreed on. the duty on hides Is
placed at 20 per cent. al valorcm. in
place OF ~ cents per pound. as orig
inally reported by the finance commit
tee. The discussion was protractcd,
drifting into Il general debate on
trusts. and from that back to the su.
gar trust.
Mr.. Smith Of New Jersey spoke at
length against the duty on hides.
while Mr.. Allen Of Nebraska supported
the duty. The new paragraph was
agreed to-:9 to 2o-onc Democrat,
Rawlins OF Utah. and several Popu-
lists and Silver Republicans voting
with the Republicans in the atiirma-
tive.
The incidental debate on trusts led to
severe nrraignmcnt OF the sugar
trust by Mcssrs. Cafrcry and Lindsay.
and general discussion OF means to
deal with trusts by Mr.. Hoar. Among
other paragraphs disposed OF during
the day were all those relating to
gloves. a substitute for the paragraph
on live animals, iron ore and stained
glass windows.
In the Senate to-day the resolution
authorizing the president to invite for
eign governments to participate In the
Trinsmississippi Exposition at Omaha
was agreed to.
