Culberson Amendment Lost.
The Culberson amendment was lost, II
to A. Mr.. La Toilette was the only re-
publican who voted for it. The discus
sion of the amendment was incidental,
and when it was concluded the contro-
versy over the minimum and maximum
provision was renewed.
Senator Shively discussed the subject at
length, declaring that the maximum rate
would be the real tariff. If the maxi
mum and minimum provision is adopted"
he said. lit will be with the plain under
standing that 1t is to become the general
tariff of the United States
Senators Aldricil and Doliver said that
higher rates as a basis for reciprocity
treaties placed in the Dingley law were
applied to only few articles, such as
sugar.
Bacon's Charge Anglers Aldrich.
Senator Bacon declared that as the
chairman Of the finance committee Mr..
+Aldrich had prevented the ratification of
the treaties negotiated under the reciproc-
ity clause of the Dingiey act
MI. Aldrich disputed the assertion. aEI
stated that Senator Cullom, chairman of
the foreign relations committee. realizing
that the ratificafio of the treaties was
impossible, had not pressed them for ac-
ton.
That is absolutely and unquestiona bly,
Incorrect" retorted Mr.. Bacon The
treaties were brought before the Senate
and pressed for consideration
Mr. Bacon added again that Mr. Aldrich
was chief opponent of the treaties, espe-
cially of the French reciprocity treaty
and that his influence caused the monaco
ton on it.
Mr.. Aldrich then called Mr. Bacon to
order under the rules, saying that he did
not object to criticism, but did not pro-
pose to have business of an executive. ses-
sion publicly discussed. He admitted hay
ing opposed the reciprocity treaties, and
said nothing in his public career had
given him more pleasure. He believed
they sacrificed every interest of the
American people. He denied that any
Rhode Island interests were specially In
volved.
But Mr.. Bacon persisted. claiming that
Mr.. Aldrieh was Influenced by the inter
ests OF his own state.
This ansered Mr.. Aldrich, and he said
that nothing could be farther from the
truth than Mr.. Bacon's statement He
said he had denied II once, and he now
insisted that Mr.. Bacon withdraw it,
MI. Bacon consented to admit that Mr.
Aldrich had not been Influenced by local
interests.
The Senate then fell into a discussion
of the reasons for the failure of the Sen
ate to ratify the reciprocity treaties ne
gotiated under the Dingley law.
An amendment by Mr. Gore substitut-
ing the provision of the Dingiey act au-
thorizing the negatien of reciprocity
treaties for the maximum and minimum
clause was defeated. Is to 50.
