 Eight republican members of the ways and means committed which framed the bill, voted for free hides, and Represent ative Garner of Texas. ranking demo- cratic committeeman, and in charge of the general fight against the bill, was counted with republicans voting for the tax.
 There were many breaks from straight party lines on the first contested section of the measure, but finding themselves with votes to spare. republican leaders forced an early adjournment over the democratic demand that the bill be read for amendment.
 Represent tative' Hawley of Washington, republican member of the committee, in pleading against the duty, declared the farmers by a tariff would get less than they were now paid, and that SSl,00o,o00 would be added annually to the nation s shoe and leather bill.
 The action of the leaders in adjourn ing after a five-hour session, and on the heels of an eleVen-hour sitting yesterday, ended the hope of democrats of q chance to demand d vote on amendments gener- ally After discussion had been running for two hours, Representative Garrett, the acting democr atic leader, offered a motion to close debate at once so that the house might have an opportunity to work on the bill under the five-minute rule, according to the legislative custom
 The republicans countered with a mo- tion for two additional hours of debate,

Opponents Of tEe duty said, hsw- ever, they had little koHe fer defeating ii then.
 Calling for a man-to-man count, the democrats forced a march down the aisle which showed the following republican members of the ways and means commit. tee standing out to keep hides on tho free list:

The feeling here is that once that object has been attained an agreement easily will be reached as to subjects of discussion. provided none of the powers ties it's own hands before the conference begins.
 Those in charge of the negotiations are so confident of an agreement that the purpose to proceed with the issuance of formal invitations was reaffirmed after the whole question had been reviewed at todays cabinet meeting.
 So far as the. present plans of the ad- zninistration go, these invitations will be extended only to the powers originally approached on the subject-Great Brit ain, France, Italy, Japan and China.
