I WASHINGTON, May S.-Only
cut and dried program of opposition
Iby the minority, half hearted because
of the recognized futility Of overcom-

iority, Natervened before final pas
sage of the Wilson Underwood tariff
bill in the house this afternoon. For
nal reading of the engrossed meas

were prepared to register their full
strength Of 129 votes against the

the rest against the democratic meas

for some inscr table reason Mann in
sisted that every one Of the $4,000
words in the bill be read again. This
