Washington. July 9.-Considerable
unfavorable comment was made to-
day among members of the house over
the action of the senate, at the insti-
CATION of Aldrich. in appointing con-
ferees for the tariff bill before the
measure was returned to the house.
The ordinary procedure is to send
the amended bill to the house, ana
await its action before appointing con-
ferees. Aldrich claimed his course
was adopted to save time, but some of
the house members feel that they
were insulted.
The senate conferees were appoint
ed last night after the passage of the
tariff bill by the senate. The frs,
conference will probably be held to-
morrow. The members are Aldrich,
Burrows, Penrose, Hale, Cullom, re-
publicans, and Daniel, Money Bailey,
democrats. The republican house con-
ferees are Payne, Dalzell, Mccall, Bou-
tell and Calderhead.
Bill Presented TO House.
At 1890 this afternoon the secre-
tary of the senate presented the tariff
bill to the house, and requested a con-
ference. A recess was then taken
Vote on the Bill.
The tariff bill passed the senate just
after II O'Clock last night by a vote
of 45 to "a. Republicans voting In
the negative were. Beveridge. Indiana;
Bristow, Kansas Brown. Nebraska;
Burkett, Nebraska; Clapp, Minnesota;
Crawford. South Dakota; Cummins,
Iowa; Dolliver, Iowa; LaFollette, Wis
consin; Nelson Minnesota.
McEnery of Louisiana, was the only
democrat voting in the affirmative.
Bill Is Voluminous.
As it passed the senate the bill con-
tains almost 400 paragraphs. The sem
ate made $40 amendments to the
house bill, many of which were added
Consequently the enroll
ing clerk are finding the preparation
of the bill for the house an ardous
task. They have been following a.
closely upon the heels of the senate as
was possible and have the work well
In hand.
