Attempts to Decisive.

The tariff plank is attracting more at
tenti0n than any other feature of the
platform. and members on the subcOm-
miJtee think that no agreement viii be
reached until very late n0ur- Already
objections have been raised TO the word
ing of the plank, and Representative Dali
ZeH and Senator Hausbrough are Oppos-
ing the clause relating TO reciprocity
Mr. DElZeu does not want any reference
to the subject while Senator HansprOugn
is contending for the suggestion con-
tanned iu his resolution that am ADJUST
ment OF the tariff should be made with
regard TO enlarged commercial relations
with foreign countries The reciprocity
clause Is urged by those who declare that
it was in the last speech or President Nc
Kinley. and that the Republicans should
endorse that portion of his policy. The
great effort is TO make the tariff plank
a ''staud-uat' declaration and at the
same time hold out q promise for re-
vision when necessary. How to word
the revision clause has been giving the
Republican leaders some concern for sew
eraI days. and the subcommittee on reso-
buttons finds this the most VCXatiOus
question before IL.
