WI AsHINGToN, June 1.-THE fight
w to place wood pulp and print
PAPER on the free list opened in
to place wood pulp and print paper on
the free list opened in the senate today
the senate today under the leadership
of Senator Brown of Nebraska.
Going over to the portion OF the
chamber in which Senators Aldrich,
Hale, Frye Lodge, Gallinger, Smoot and
other leaders have their seats. the Ne
braskan stood in the midst of the OPP
posing force, and with good nature par
ried thrusts that came to him from all
quarters as he delivered telling speech
in behalf of the cause he had espoused.
Showing familiarity with all avail
able information on the wood pulp and
paper schedule, Mr.. Brown frequently
quoted from various authorities to sus-
tain his contention that wood pulp and
print paper both are produced in the
United States with cheaper labor and
cheaper material, resulting in cheaper
product than can be obtained in Canada.
Turning to his Republican colleagues,
he asked them how, in view of that
fact, they could justify a duty on these
products for the protection Of labor"
Senator Aldrich and Senator Hale
fatty contradicted these statements In
reference to wages and cost of produce
ton. They insisted that the committee
of the house of representatives, from
which Mr.. Brown quoted, was lacking
in accurate testimony and contended
that, even accepting that report, 1t
could not be maintained that the United
States had an advantage in the produc-
ton.
Many Democrats Present
There was a large attendance of Dem
ocrats. Senator Tillman asked how 1t
was that newspapers advocating pro-
tective tariff desired free trade in the
materials they use.
"They are humbugs," the South Car
Gilman declared.
Senator Bailey suggested that an
amendment be drawn giving the ben
eft of free paper to free trade papers
and levying a duty on paper used by
protectionist tariff journals.
Mr.. Brown still held the floor when
the senate adjourned earlier than
usual to permit a Democratic caucus,
He will resume consideration of his
amendment for free paper tomorrow.
The senate adopted the window glass
schedule, placing a lower duty than
is provided either by the Dingley law
or the house bill
Because of intense competition by
German manufacturers, the duty on
illustrated post cards was increased
1876 per cent above the Dingley law.
The schedules relating to litho-
graphic papers, calendars, cigar bands
and such products were adopted.
