ON TAR|FF:DEBATE
Cluture Petition, Signed by
Fifty-Five, Goes to Sen.
e. ate Wednesday.

This week is to develop some def
nite plan as to the fate Of the pend
Ing tariff bill in the Senate. accord
ing to decision today by republican
leaders in informal conferences. It
was announced that the republican
motion to curb debate on the bill.
which has been in circulation about
ten days. would be presented In the
SeIate next Wednesday and voted on
the following Friday.
The clotufe petition. which requires
sixteen senatorial signatures for
presentation. and which was said to
bear fifty-ave of the sixty republi-
can names, was delivered today by
Senator Curtis of Kansas. republi-
can whip, who circulated 1t. to CHAIR
man McCumber of the finance COM
lnittee, manager of the tariff forces.
Senator McCumber conferred with
other republicans and decided to pre-
sent the motion Wednesday. The mo-
ton must lie over a day under tne
ruls, and the leaders said they felt
sure of vote Friday.
That the necessary two-thirds vote
forSL cloture could not be secured was
probable, according to the sponsors OF
the. petition Several democrats were
said to favor cloture. but the party as
a Whole was expected to line up gen.
orally against it.
Defeat of the cloture move, republic
carsleaders said, would at least demon
strafe a desire on the part of the ma
joTf.y to bring the bill to an early vote:
Thky said that afterward If substantial
prdEress was not made on the bill they
wefe prepared to lay 1t aside and make
a Vigorous fight for the proposed new
cloiure rule, recommended recently by
tVe republican conferences to invoke
cioture by majority instead OF two
