Washington, d. C.-Repeal of Pan.
anna Canal tolls exemption for Ameri-
can coastwise shipping passed the
Senate by vote of so to 35.
The measure now goes back to the
House, which is expected to accept the
Simmons-Norris amendment, specific
ally reserving all rights the United
States may have under the Hay
Pauncefote treaty.
The passage of the bill, after a bit
ter struggle that has lasted several
months, was regarded as another dis
tinct victory for President Wilson. Al
though 13 Republicans came to the aid
of the 81 Democrats who voted for the
bill on final passage, the President
initiated the movement in his party
for repeal, and it was behind him that
many of the Democrats who voted
AYE" lined up on the last test.
There has been no certain promise
from the White House that the Presi-
dent will sign the bill with its qualify
ing amendment, but no declaration
that he will veto 1t has been forth
coming, and party leaders in the SEN
ate were practically certain that its
approval as amended by the House will
lead to favorable action by the Presi-
dent.
Eleven Democrats, led by Senator
O'Gorman, fought consistently to the
end and even an hour before the last
vote was taken they did not abandon
their efforts to amend the bill to meet
their views of the manner in which
American rights in the canal and
American rights to exempt coastwise
shipping from toll payment should be
guarded. Although vote after vote on
all sorts Of amendments were passed
over by majorities that never fell be-
low IL and on ore occasion went as
high as So, the minority Democrats
kept up the fight to the end.
The Senate was weary with its long
grind and watching for any attempt to
gain a parliamentary advantage, and
by the time Vice-President Marshall
put the question for the passage of the
bill the oratory had died down, the
chamber was quiet and the vote was
taken with little excitement.
