Washington, April 7.-Wrangling,
confusion, captious objections, per-

vituperation marked the first days
discussion of the Payne tariff bill for
amendment in the house of representa-

things which their constituencies were
demanding.

An overwhelming majority was
mustered against an amendment by
Mr.. Scott (Kan) taking hides from
the free list and fixing a duty upon
them of 10 per cent ad valorem.
The barley schedule came in for. a
lively discussion and when the bill
was laid aside for the day there were
pending two amendments, one raising
the rate in the Payne bill from Is

the condition in which the committee
reported it. This grants free hides
and duty of 81 per thousand on
sawed lumber.
