As it passes the senate, the bill con
tains almost 400 paragraphs. The sen
ate made $40 amendments 10 the house
provisions, many of which were added
tod, la.
clerks are finding the preparation OF the
bill for the house an arduous task. They
have been following as closely upon the
heels of the senate as was possible, and
have the work well in hand, but say
that they will probably not be able to
complete their labors before late tomor-
row.
Intimations of Delay.
A depressing suggestion of pro.
tracted session of the senate to conclude
the consideration of the tariff bill was
contained in motion presented by
Senator Aldrich as soon as the senate
convened today. With the experience
OF last night S session IN mind. Mr.. Aid
rich moved TO amend the order of pro-
ceedure by striking out the provision
for an automatic adjournment at
o clock. This was agreed to without OBJ
lection. There was no effort TO reach
an understanding as 10 the hour. but
the general feeling was that whether
early or late. the measure should be dis
posed Of before leaving the senate
chamber. 1t had been supposed that
much time would be consumed in the
discussion of the tobacco tax bill Ever
before that item was reached 1T had
been arranged that there would be COM
paratively little effort 70 alter the
finance committee s schedule.
The uncompleted corporation tax pro-
vision was the first subject of the days
consideration, and Senator Daniel re-
sumcd the speech he began Yesterday.
His remarks were in defense of his
amendment levying tax of one quar-
ceipts of corporations having a capital
stock of more than $500, 900.
Boquets for Taft
''We have a worthy man in the pres
idential chair declared Mr. Daniel:
ga judicial man of great mind and of
great heart, | have no sentiment of
opposition TO the pending proposition
because of its source, On the contrary,
| look to it as of the highest respecta-
bility
Mr.. Bacon suggested that the Vir-
ginia senator change his plans for tax
ing corporations to make it apply also
of more than 100000 annually.
On suggestion of Mr.. Daniel. Mr.. Ba-
con offered his amendment as an amend
mcnt to the proposition by the Nir-
ginia senator.
Il move 10 lay the amendments on
the table. - curtly interposed the chair
man of the finance committee.
(Which amendment interposed Mr..
Bacon, rising in his place with show
Of antagonism.
Both. if I can said Mr.. Aldrich.
''I rise to a point of order, if [ car
have the attention of the chair" per
sisted Mr. Bacon
"The senator from Georgia always
has the attention of the chair ii he
will state his point of order. replied
Vice President Sherman in suave tones
that suggested harmony
Sherman in Good Humor.
''I don Z wish TO be considered as
,hding the chair replied Mr., Bacon.
but do insist ON a right to have my
notion put To the senate.
''1he chair always does that, re-
orted the vice president smiling.
After short exchange of views of
ust what happened, the amendments
we're gently laid on the table, - and
here was no further suggestion of any
'uffle on the senatorial waters.
Other amendments to the corporation
AK amendment were quickly disposed
If in thc same way.
The corporation tax amendment as
perfected hv the committee was agreed
o. and Mr.. Aldrich announced that with
he exception of the tobacco tax, the
ill was perfected so far as committee
amendments were concerned,
Mr. Bacon, for his colleague, Mr..
,lav. offered an amendment to the bill
,rovidiue for special tax and for the
equation of sales on stock exchanges.
nd insisted on strict adherence to
parliamentary rules IN dlsposlng of 1T.
his insistcnce was emphasized by an
oually persistent purpose on the part
t Mr.. Aldrch to dispose of it as quick
Y as possible.
"It is very apparent, said Mr.. Ba-
on, after several clashes with the
