DOZEN VOTES IN DOUBT,

Republicans Becoming Nervous Over the
Fate of the Porto Rican Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-There were
but three speeches in the house upon
the Porto Rican tariff bill. Five hours
were consumed in their delivery. Mr..
Hopkins (nls.) spoke in support Of tho
bill and Mr.. Newlands New and Mffss
Swanson (Va) in opposition to it, The
speakers devoted themselves almost ex-
clusively to the constitutional question
involved and were listened to with at
tention. The Republican leaders are
becoming nervous over the fate Of the
bill. They have only majority Of II
over the opposition, which is solidly OPP
posed to the measure. Eight votes from
the Republican side would therefore de-
feat it and there are from IL to 10 Re-
publican votes in doubt. A movement
for Republican caucus is being agi-
tated. The Republicans reported to be
opposed to the bill are Messrs. Mccall
(Mass.), Lit,letield (Me.), Powers (Vt.),
Tompkins IN. ", Cromwell CO.,,
Lorimer Ills.), Heatwole (Minn.) y,
Tongue (Or.), Loud (Cal.), Jones and
