Regrettable misunderstanding

request the Italian government, in the

refused to do so, we broke off relations
with Signor Silvestrelli, whereupor

WARNS THE MNsURGENTS"

Opposition to the Administration Gu

Says, Furnish Democratic Argument
for the Coming mpaign-ReVieWs
the History of Reciprocity in Sup
port of His Position.
Washington, April 11-At the con-
Blusion of routine business in the
house consideration of the Cuban re-
ciprocity bill was resumed. Mr.. Payne,
the majority leader, attempted to Sc
cure an agreement to close general de-
bate on the bill next Monday, but Mr..
Tawney (Minn.) demanded the reg
ular ORDER"
Mr.. Grosvenor (O), the first speak
er, made an earnest speech in favor
of the bill. In opening his remarks he
addressed himself to his Republican
colleagues who we're opposing the bill
and warned them that nothing which
he would say could be used in the COM
ing campaign to advance Democratic
success by striking at the merits of
Republican measures.
The president and his cabinet, he
said, favored legislation on the line of
the pending measure. Nevertheless,
he said, he did not propose to assail
those who had organized themselves
into hostile force against the admin
istration if they felt that their con-
sciences or local self interest dmpelled
them to that course. Be he insisted
that the pending bill constituted no
deviation or detection from the path
way of protection and he said he pro-
posed to repeI the assaults made upon,
himself growing out of this unfortun-
ate contrOv He then proceeded to
review the history of reciprocity and
the sugar schedule since the days Of
the Mckinley tariff bill. He told some
interesting history of the controversy
free admission of sugar in the McKin-
ley bill, Blaine desiring to use the tar
iff on sugar as a means Of promoting
reciprocity. Mckinley, he said, was
also a disciple of reciprocity at that
LIMC, UuL u4O uOl dS4 &C Will b1CSluO
upon the method of protecting sugar
and Mr.. GrOsvenOr said he had himself
been present at what might almost be
described as an acrimonious discus
sion" in the state department between
Mckinley and Blaine.
Mr.. GrOsVenOr warned the Republic
ans that the present tariff schedules
could not exist forever. Irresistible
demands for changes would be made,
but this was not the time. 1t was not
schedules, he said, but the protective
principles for which the party stood.
He warned the Republican opponents
of the bill not to oyerturn rulings of
the chair and plunge the country into
an agitation for revision Of the tariff.
Referring to the speech of President
Roosevelt touching on reciprocity he
sarcastically wondered at the temerity
OF the president in making such state
ments while Republicans of the house
were denouncing such sentiments as
party disloyalty.
Mr.. Weeks (Mich.) followed Mr..
Grosvenor with a speech in opposition
to the bill. He argued that there was
no obligation upon us to id Cuba It
was ridiculous, he cOntended, to say
that because we freed Cuba at the cost
OF hundreds of lives and millions of
dollars that therefore we were under
a load of debt to the island.
