SOLDIERS BONUS SIDE TRACKED
 FOR TARIFF

WASHINGTON, June 20.-The eau CHS of the Senate Republicans has def initely committed the party to pass age of the tariff bill before taking up the Soldiers Bonus measure. The party leaders are unanimous that the interests of the country at large de- pend on an early enactment of new tariff as they contend that the Underwood tariff has proved itself unsuitable to the necessities of the nresent industrial and foreign trade situation. This means that there will be no possibility of the bonus being considered until after August 1. Pass age of the tariff bill by that time even will mean a resumption Of night ses- sions of the Senate and continuous hard work on the measure It is esti- mated that it will take at least from four to six weeks to dispose of the Bonus bill which means that the Sen ate will have to swelter through the hot summer days in Washington with no chance of escape before the latter part of September.
