WASHINGTON LETTER,
From Oar Regular Correspondent,
Washington, july %, IS

From Oar Regular correspondent.
Washington, july 20, 1897.
1t was case of mistaken Judge,
ment on the part of those Senators
who started out TO fillibuster 4.
gainst a vote on tho conference re
port on the tariff bill, as they dis
covered as soon as they took time
to do little quiet thinking. The
parliamentary status Of the bin un,
less they could control enough
votes to reject the conference re.
port, us a motion to accept the re.
port was the only one in order.
Could separate votes have been
taken, a motion TO reduce the duty
on white pine lumber to 81, could
easily have been carried, as could
motions to replace cotton ties, bags
giug, burlaps and other articles on
the free last. but when it came to
to rejecting the conference report
with all the uncertainty Of what
would result from RI opening the
entire bill to amendment Il maiori-
W was opposed to it. The trouble
with those who wished to change
portions of the bill WAC that they
did rot include any of those who
voted for the bill as a whole or who
would have voted for it, even if the
changes they wanted had been
made. That is why the effort was
a failure from the start.
1t is somewhat uncertain wheth.
er the sugar trust imposed on
Congress and got much more than
Congress thought it was getting in
thu final sugar schedule of the tariff
bill, or whether 1t Is now lmpOSr
ing upon that portion OF the pub
lie which invests it's money in
stock speculations. If the present
unprecedentedly high price for the
sugar trust stock is maintained it
will indicate that the first is true,
but if the price of that stock takes
d tumble, az some are predicting,
it will be good evidence that the
trust has worked the spectators
to make up for what it failed to
get from Congress.
That some people have queer
ideas of the power of the President
is shown by the urgent written ap-
peals which have come to Presi-
dent Mckinley concerning the big
coal strike, Without exception

exception the writer's ask the Pres.
ident to stop the strike at once
Doubtless the writers Of each Of
these appeals has an idea that AL
the President would have to do 10
stop the strike would be to init,
mate to the strikers and their ems
plOyers that he wished it stopped.
As a matter of fact the President
has no more authority to stop the
coal strike, VI any other strike,
than the humblest reader Of this
paragraph has. He might, of
course, influence either, or both
sides, by suggestions or persuasion,
but he cannot order them. II is
very we'll known that Mai. McKin>
ley would like to see the strike
satisfactorily ended. He is much
interested in the political cam.
paign in Ohio, and he knows that
Il continuance of the strike lint
going to help Senator Hanna. but
he is too shrewd a politician to
take any chances OF injuring hims
self by being too forward with
suggestions, In plain English,
while he wants the strike settled
he does MT wish to have any hand
in the settlement, even if be had
b. power,
The opposition TO Mr., Powder
ley's confirmation as Commissioners
General of immigration is 80 active
that it is understood his friends in
the Senate determined not to push
the nomination to a vote in the
Senate 81 this session.
The Senate adopted the resolu-
ton authorizing the President to
take steps for the release of those
Americans arrested BY the Span,

The argument that amendments
can be easily made to the present
Constitution by the Legislature
is favOrte one among the anti"
cOnstitntionists. Yes, if the
legislature passed any so-called
laws offering amendments, the
Supreme Court would have to
have u whack ut it to decide if it
were constitutional. The rule
has been that a law must pass
before the fire Of the Supreme
Court before it is constitutional,
aud Pete Turney's argument for
the legislature to decide the
matter, delightfully."- reminds us
