Senate Continuing Reciprocity
Debate, While House Dis
cusses Wool Schedule.

WASHINGTON. June 14-At both
ends of the capitol national Legislators
today championed or opposed tariff
measures. In the Senate Canadian rec
iprocity had the right of way, the pro-
posed agreement having been reported
to that body yesterday by Senator
Penrose. chairman of the finance com
mittee. Discussion of the measure,
promising to extend over a period of
many days. bids fair to begin in
earnest, for two senator's, Messrs. Nc
Cumber and Curtis, had given notice
that they would speak.
The House, still busied with the wool
schedule, expected a number of
speeches for and against the reduction
in duty the Democrats are striving to
accomplish.
The several Investigating committees
of the House continued their labors.
