Previously Senator La Follette's
amendment had been defeated IA to
&C. Fourteen republican insurgents
voted for it.
Senator La Toilette by 40 TO 81 Sc
cured a reconsideration of the vote on
the house wool bill, the democrats and
insurgents joining in support Of his
motion. He then offered modified
substitute of his amendment as a
compromise between the house bill
and the original La toilette bill upon
which the democrats and insurgents
had agreed and it was passed.
Senator La Toilette startled the
senate today when he declared he had
beard there was to "be little per-
fcrmance today to defeat all real ta-
riff legislation" That a number of
high protection republicans had agreed
Ito vote for the democratic house wool
bill, being sure that its excessively
low duties would justify veto by the
president. Senator La Toilette also
took occasion TO arraign the present
operation of the tariff board, charg-
ing that influences had been at woork
in the board to suppress certain facts
in regard to the manufacture of print
paper in this country He said he be-
lieved there were men on the tariff
board who were working for the high
purpose of serving the public but that
the report on the paper making indus
try showed that somewhere there had
been influences exerted to leave the
reporN> in confusion so that the print
paper manufacturers could go on get
ting excessive benefits; assessing the
buyers of print paper for their own
All insurgents but Borah, Idaho;
