GriIIed by Senator Nc
Cumber, North Dakota.
tBy The Associated Press.)

Washington, June 14.-Metro-
politan newspapers. especially of
the eastern seaboard, and import
ing houses and department stores
of the country, were attacked in
the senate today by Senator Nc
Cumber republican of North Da-
kota. who charged that they were
spreading ''insidious and poisonous
propaganda against the pending
tariff bill to further their selfish
interests and to maintain "extor-
tionate" profits.
He assailed particularly New
York, Boston and Philadelphia
newspapers.
Senator McCumber's speech,
nearly two hours in length, imme-
diately precipitated replies from
the democratic side and brought a
resolution by Senator Walsh. Mon
tana, calling upon the attorney
general to advise the senator
whether steps had been taken or
were to be taken to establish
whether a conspiracy existed
among the ii terests mentioned by
the North Dakota senator. The
resolution asked that if such COM
bination existed. prosecution Of
those suspected be instituted under
the antitrust law.
The Montana senator sought i'm.
mediate action on the resolution
but Mr.. McCumber objected, say
ing he was heartily in favor Of an
investigation of the facts and in
cidents presented but did not be-
lieve the Walsh resolution was In
accord with the situation laid be-
fore the senate. The resolution
went over day under senate
rules.
Senator Underwood, Alabama,
the democratic leader, character
lied the tariff leaders stand as
most remarkable and entirely new
in tariff discussion" He declared
that on the position taken by Nc
Cumber, the republican protec-
tionists had left no longer any ap-
peal to American manufacturers
or labor.
Pro..t Taken by Some.
1.-THE senator has shown" said
Mr.. Underwood, that the profit
taken by some Of these people
ranges as high as 1900 per cent.
If that be true, how can he or his
committee expect TO protect Amer
lean labor with so per cent duty?
What appeals has he left to the
American manufacturer? | say IL
his statements are true then he
and his committee have perpetrat-
ed a gigantic fraud on the Amer
ican people
The McCumber speech came at
the end of day OF little progress
on the tariff bill. He appeared on
the floor with numerous articles
usually imported for sale by de-
partment store. Using the articles
on which both the foreign and re-
tail selling prices here had been
obtained as examples to illustrate
his speech. he described what he
characterized as "the enormous
frauds perpetrated on the Ameri-

Article after article was held up
before the senators. There was
cuckoo clock made in Germany.
