ALDR|CH HAS HIS WAY
Senate Votes for Increased
Rate on Wool Wastes.
WARREN MAKES APPEAL
Sees Nothing Wicked in Growers and
Manufacturers Alliance.
HE KNOWS OF NO RAG TRUST
Foster Opposes Amendment With
Democrats and Crawford and
Gamble Return to Allegiance.

By an aye-and-no vote of 40 TO so the
Senate at l 80 o'clock adopted the finance
committees amendment restoring the
Dinsley rate of 30 cents a pound wool
top waste and other wastes. The House
rate was 20 cents.
Progressive republicans generally voted
with the democrats against the increase.
Durbin, Urges Haste.
The tariff debate today was preceded by
the reading of recent statement by ex-
Gov. Durbin of Indiana advising prompt
action on the pending bill. The reading
of the document was ordered on motion
of Senator Scott.
What is the date of that statement?'
inquired the senior senator from Indiana,
Mr. Beveridge.
Mr. Scott stated that the date was in
the latter part of May" Mr.. Beveridge
smiled and nodded his head with ap-
prevail.
Following the reading of this statement
Senator Warren resumed his speech. Pre-
Senting a comprehensive review of the
wool industry and its relation To the pro-
tective tariff. he entered upon an appeal
to the Senate to maintain the duties
recommended by the committee on
finance as necessary to the welfare of a
Combination Not Wicked.
There has never been a time said
Senator Warren, when wool growers
have been prosperous unless the wooden
manufacturers were prosperous.
1t has been said here, with a sneer, that
the woolen manufacturers and the wool
growers had made some agreement II
ask In all seriousness whether that is not
a proper thing to do or whether they
should have each other by the throat?'
1nterrupting, Senator Dolliver referred
to a rag trust in this country, which. Mr.
Warren said, he suspected was largely
organized on the plan of Col. Sellers, as
he had heard nothing of 1t until the SEN
ator from Iowa had called it to his at
tention.
Alignment on Ballot.
BY a vote of 40 to 80 the committee
amendment levying a duty Of 50 cents,
similar to that of the Dingley bill, on top
waste. slubbing waste. rowing waste. ring
waste and garnetted waste was agreed to.
This vote was the first that has been
taken on the woolen schedule, and is
regarded as a test vote on all amend
ments to that schedule.
On the amendment no democratic sena-
tor voted in the affirmative. Mr.. Craw-
ford and Mr.. Gamble, who have gen.
orally voted with the progressive" re-
publicans and democrats. voted aye.
Foster da-) voted with the democrats,
although generally voting with the ma
jority. Republicans voting no were Bev-
eridge, BriStow, Brown, Burkett. Clapp,
Cummins, Dolliver, La Toilette and Nell
