|PASsEsHOUsE;
up TO SENATE
President Taft's Agreement With
Canada Is Ratified by Almost Solid
Democratic Vote II Senate Fails To
Approve Extra Session Is Likely.
Rsps. DENLY and Young, Of Michigan,
Vote for Bill, But Fordnsy, Dodds
and Mclaughlin Oppose It.

& Call bin, which makes the reciprocity
agreement with Canada effective, was
passed Dy the house last night by
vote OF 22i to 90, and is now up TO
the senate. A majority OF the Repup-
licans voted against the measure, the
division being rs ayes to 81 nays. Inc
Democratic vote was 143 ayes ana
only nays, showing that the bill was
passed by the support OF an almost
solid Democratic vote. Most OF the
Republican insurgents voted for the
bill.
President Taft believes II filibus-
ter can be avoided and a vote taken
in the senate the bill will pass. He
insists that the senate shall act one
way or the other, and has Indicated
that he would cali an extra session OF
congress II 1t does not do so.
The passage of the bill came at the
end OF a long debate which at times
was as bitter as has been heard on
\ the floor Of that chamber In years.
The fight was confined almost wholly
to the Republican side. Democratic
members Joined In from time to time,
and tainted the majority members
for their lack of unity. The Demo
cratic leaders also put In the claim
that the reciprocity agreement was
GOOD Democratic doctrine and de-
clared they were glad TO welcome
4 President Taft and many OF the house
Republicans to the Democratic Held.
The final vote on the bill stood:
