IN UPPER HOUSE.
Doliver of Iowa and Aidrich of Rhode

kinley Had Gone BY Default. 3


Washington, D. c., Jan. 13.-(spe-
cial. 1.-The Iowa idea ruffied the Sc
renity of the senate today when Dolli-
yer made the statement that the SEN
ate was allowing the reciprocity ideas
OF Mckinley and Blaine to go by de-
fault. He declared that, these ideas
inferred the reducing of certain tar
If schedules now too high and that
Dingley himself had said that he made
some of the schedules too high, so as
to induce reciprocity. X
This aroused the ire of Aldrich, of
Rhode Island, who denied the Dingley
remark and also differences regarding
the reduction Of the tariff. He stood
before Deliver and harangued him
with wild gesticulations declaring that
he was for the real reciprocity that
provided for the exchange of iron and
competitive articles and that it did not
disturb the foundation of protection.
He said he was as good friend of
reciprocity as Deliver though he did
not agree with his infamous ideas.
Tillman electrified the senate by de-
claring that the President and the at
torney general are to blame for the
coal famine. He will speak on the
