Republican Senators Consult Over the Flax
and Metal Schedules.
Washington, June 1.-The Republican
members OF the senate committee on
finance were In consultation at the Ar
lington hotel last night with a large
number Of senators on the fax and
metal schedules. on both Of which
amendments looking to increases have
been suggested. Davis, Nelson and Pet
tigrew, and Representative Towney
were heard on the desirability Of a gen.
eral increase on hemp and fax duties,
advocating the restoration Of the house
rates on all articles Of this character
which do not call for still higher rates
than those Of the house bill. They asked
for 1h cents a pound on retted tow. 2
cents on unhackled fax and 81 cents
on hacked fax.
They represented that in the north
western states enough fax straw is de-
stroyed every year to supply the de-
mands for fax products Of the entire
United States, which they said could be
saved with sufficient protection. Aldrich
suggested that II the rates were raised
on the raw material it would be neces-
sary also to advance them on the articles
manufactured from fax. but the west
ern senators contended to the contrary
Quay and other senators suggested adj
vances in the metal schedules. The COM
mittee announced no conclusions.
