Iron and Steel Revision Bill Was Passed Over the Presidents Veto With Just a Single Vote to Spare
SENATE OPPOSITION
 LACKING STRENGTH
Democrats Not Hopeful of Overriding Veto There; Another Attempt to Re peal Reciprocity Legisla- tion

WASHINGTON, August 14.-Re- beating it's action of yesterday when it passed the wool tariff bill over President Taft's veto, the house today passed the vetoed steel and iron tar if bill within two hours after it had been returned from the White House with the presidents veto message The vote was 173 to 83, margin of only two votes over the two thirds neces- sary.
 The senate at almost the same time was engaged in passing the democrat ic cotton tariff bill sent it a week ago by the house. LaFollette's substitute, which represented the views of the tariff board, was voted down, 46 to Is. and LaFollette and eight other pro gressive republicans later joined the democrats and passed the cotton bill 36 to 19
 An amendment was attached re- -pealing all but the pulp paper section of Canadian reciprocity law. The re- passed steel bill was sent to the sen lat and reposed tonight with the wool bill among the papers technically on the desk of the president of the sen ate Both messages will be called up on Friday and an attempt will be made to re-pass them. but the dem ocratic leaders have little hope that they can obtain the necessary two thirds vote
