to the tariff fixed I'm the House bill had
not expected 1t to be taken up 50 early. He,
for one did not want unreasonable delay,
but he would have to object to any agree
ment to vote on the bill this week. He
would be willing. however, TO have the
vote taken next week.
Mr.. Foraker then proposed to have the
vote taken on Monday.
Mr.. Proctor said that he would prefer a
day or two later.
Would not Tuesday do Mr.. Foraker
enquired
Il have consulted with one or two
others" Mr.. Proctor replied, who are
anxious TO have it as late as Thursday.
Il knew" said Mr.. Allen contemptuous-
ly that some one would rise and object.
The Senator from Ohio undertook to run a
bluff, and one of his own party calls him. ="
Laughter
MIR. Foraker made a few other efforts TO
overcome Mr. ProctoTs objection. and thus
drew from Mr. Pettus the sarcastic remark
that the two Senators were Dragging, one
against the other and he called for the
regular order
Mr. Allen resumed the floor and called
attention to the fact that the objection to
Mr.. Foraker's proposition came from
"rock-ribbed Vermont" where the Sena-
tor was in no danger with his people. 1t
came from the Republican side Of the
chamber, and was part Of the policy of de-
lay instituted by that side. Every man, -
he said, performs his own part. and l sup
pose that part was assigned TO the Senator
from Vermont"
Mr. Forakers proposition thus failed
and the Senate at p. m. went into exec
utive session. When the doors were re-
OF, ned consideration of the conference re-
pcrt was resumed, but it went over and
the Senate at 4 p. m. adjourned until to-
