TARIFF
IN SENATE TODAY
Democratio.Insurgent Alliance Will
Put Through Iron and Steel
Amendment.
TO VOTE ON FREE LIST
Chairman Underwood Announces
Democrats Will Withdraw De-
mands for Free Lemons, &C.
reals and Meats in Bill.

Washington. Aug. 16.--The cot
ton tariff revision bill will come to
vote in the senate with the Demo
Gratis pledged to accept the La Fol
lette iron and steel schedule as an
amendment. The farmers free list
bill probably will be disposed by
the senate tomorrow with all differ
ences between the two houses adj
justed as the wool bill awaits the
presidents veto This is the tariff
situation in congress tonight.
The cotton. iron and steel pro-
granime agreed one in the caucus of
the Democratic senator's today car
ries out part Of tn G revision extern
sion programme of the Progre sive
Republican senator's whose powerful
alliance with the Democrats has
swept tariff legislation through con-
gress at this session.
Neither the free list lor cotton bill
fis expected to involve much debate
In view OF the programme.
The decision Nof the Democratic
senatorial caucus was reached after
Representative Underwood, chair
man Of the ways and means commit
tee and other house Democrats had
declared that this senate extension
of tariff revision would not be OBJ
jectlonable to them.
Underwood announced that the
opening Of the tariff programme to
these schedules undoubtedly would
| extend to the present session week
| or ten days from now at least, and
| that il will result in his committee
| completing work already advanced
on the iron and steel and other
tariff measures,
Underwood also saw no legal OBJ
1 lection to such tariff Legislation
organization in the senate as al
amendment to the house bill.
The supreme court, he pointed
out, had passed on that question Ii
the income tax bill which was made
corporation tax bill by the senate
4 He acknowledged that going in sucf
general revision would delay ad
journment.
With the exception of two hours
recess on account of the session o
the senate the Democratic senator
ial caucus continued from 10 O'CLOCK
this morning until after 2 O'CLOCK
tonight.
Beginning with a wide diversion
OF opinion and many abrupt
clashes as to whether even the cot
ton bill itself should be acted upoI
closed with an agreement not onl,
to take a vote on the house cottol
bill but to amend it and to add II
the iron and steel schedule.
1t was decided that vote SHOULD
be taken first on the house cottol
bill and that in case Of It's defeat
which was anticipated, some sena
! tors moved the reconsideration o
the house measure as was done witt
other tariff bills recently and thu
nave the way for action on the l.
Toilette cotton bill which rs under
stood will be presented as substl
4hn bauua
with the cotton bill again hefor
the senate the programme provide
that the steel amendment shall b
offered. No doubt Is expressed tina
o with the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS re
I publican alliance revived, 1t Will b
: adopted.
