HOUSE AND SENATE
AT LOGGERHEADS
Continued from First Page

nitely postponed Howell Joined Tanner in
the house and both got after the members
to recommend it for passage. They got
after Taylor and they got after Graft and
other leaders of the house. Taylor put It
up to Tanner to pass the physical valuation
bill and the bill providing for the initiative
and referendum, but Tanner declined to
agree to vote for either.
1.-The charter will make jobs for a lot Of
democrats Tame is quoted as saying
to Graft, but this failed to interest the
gentleman from Cunning.
Threats from Senate.
Then came the message from the senate
that unless the charter bill passed the
house, 1.-THE Omaha senators will turn loose
HI"
Let 'em turn lose hell" Graft Is said
TO nave replied. Never has there been such
a fight on the floor Of the house this
session and the denunciation of the senate
aid the Omaha senator's by Taylor was
greeted with applause.
When the South Omaha charter bill came
up, Howard of Douglas moved to amend
the title by striking out several sections.
He called particular attention in his state
ment to the fact that under the Tanner
charter the street railway company would
not be required to ave between its tracks.
He accused those who drew the charter TO
be in the employ OF the corporations. He
was answered by Kraus and then the
Howard motion was lost. Clark of
Richardson moved that the bill be recon-
mended for passage as it came from the
senate, saying in support of his motion that
the Douglas delegation, save Howard, was
for It and that It had the unanimous en-
dorsement of the Douglas county senators.
This was the inspiration for Howard to
tell all he knew about corporation
domination in South Omaha and he pleaded
with the house not to send him home with
such a charter.

charter" he said. land l am not. repre-
sent the people. N am not here TO repre-

in Disgrace"
The house was about to recommend the
bill for passage when Taylor of Custer
got in the game:
Gentlemen he said, you have paid
no attention to the speech by Mr.. Howard
and neither have you paid any attention
to his amendments. I nave gone over these
amendments with him and they are
meritorious." Then the gentleman from
Custer proceeded TO tell about how the
Omaha senators had cut the stock yards
out of the physical valuation bill; he ac-
cused them of caring more for their cor
p%oration interests than for their platform
pledges. He showed that under the nro-
posed charter Mr.. Tanner had provided
that everything the council did should he
published in the Official Newspaper of
the city. Oils W paper) Then he
waded into his speech as outlined above.
Howard moved TO recommend the bill
for indefinite postponement and the motion
carried with a whoop. Then later Kuhl
made his motion for a reconsideration
Taylor insisted this would require fifty
one votes and the motion was withdrawn.
Later the committee arose and Kuhl moved
not to concur in the report, but TO leave
the bill on general file. Taylor agreed to
this and SO the motion carried without
opposition,

Introduction Of Tariff BuI Makes for
Quieter spring Season.

9uieter spring season.
NEW YORK, March 19.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
The introduction of the new tariff bill
in congress and the advance of the spring
JobDing season toward its close lave made
for a rather quieter tone In trade this
week. A fair business is doing in nearly
all lines and the turnover is in excess of
a year ago at this date, but conservatism
rules. Spring 1obbing activity has passed
its zenith, buying Is only to cover imme-
diate necessities, the result of Easter trade
at retail are awaited with interest, collec-
lions are only fair and the volume of bust
ness done this spring 30 far Is, in some re-
spects, disappointing. Jobblng trade seems
TO have quoted down at q humber of mar
kets east and west; Chicago, st. Louis and
Kansas City in the west and New York
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston in the
east, reporting some reduction in demand,
partly explainable by the advance OF the
season and the return OF buyers to their
homes.
brought out some new business, but I'M
settlement still rules. Pig iron stocks are
accommodating. and prices are weak. The
same Is largely true of other metals. Addi-
tional reports of wage reductions come
from iron and steel interests. In the cotton
goods line the spring rush is over, print
cotton yarns are weaker. but an important
revival in export trade in cotton goods is
noted. The leather trade is quiet, as is also
the market for hides. Shoe manufacturers
are approaching the end of the spring run
Eastern shipments are "a per cent larger
than a year age.
