DEAL TO VOTE
ON TARIFF BILL,
Democrats Said to Be Willing
to Have Public Pass on
Issue.
BOOMERANG FOR G. O. p.

WASHINGTON. June 10.-Negotiations
between Republicans and Democrats for
readjustmept Of the Senate legislative
tangle were in full swing today. with
the Democrats reported to have agreed
to the passage Of the tariff bill early In
July.
BY that time the Democrats are said
to be willing to have the Republicans
go to the country with the measure In
the hope that their denunciation Of 1t as
certain to increase taxation and living
costs" will cause 1t to react as politi-
cal boomerang upon the Republican
party.
Republican proponents Of the bill de-
clared. however. they were confident 1t
would meet with overwhelming public
approval.
So confident were the Republican lead
ers of reaching a working agreement with
the Democrats as to allow for the
passage of the bill within another month
that they were exerting strong pressure
on Senator McCumber. Republican. North
Dakota, chairman Of the Senate Finance
Committee, to abandon his plan to dis
place It for he soldiers bonus bill.
Canvass Of the Senate situation which
disclosed much more formidable opposi-
ton to the bonus than existed six months
or year ago. was said to have discour-
aged Senator McCumber in pursuing his
original idea that he could secure an
agreement to permit the bonus bill to
slip through after two or three days OF
debate.
The intention OF both Republicans and
Democrats to amend the measure and
The determination OF It's opponents to
talk 1t to death. If possible were re-
ported to be other elements of the sit
uation which were influencing Senator
McCnmber to reconsider his plan.

FEDERAL JUDGE
SEES TIME OF
COURT WASTED
Fails to Understand Why
Asked to Hear
Case.

''Why the time Of the court Is taken
up In trying cases like this is more than
I can understand" Judge Albert B. An
derson said in Federal Court today dur
Ing the trial of Clarence Wampner, for
merly employed as teller at the Indiana
National Bank, charged with embezzle-
| ment Of about 500 Of bank funds.
Other defendants involved in the same
or similar transactions. Miss Naomi
Cochrane and James knight entered
pleas of guilty some time ago. but
Wampner stood on his plea Of not guilty
and insisted on standing trial.
The Government apparently made a
strong case against Wampner and sew
eraI times Judge Anderson remarked he
could not understand why the case was
brought to trial.
Miss Naomi Cochrane formerly assist
ant to Wampner In the exchange teller 5
cage, and Indicted with him, the star
! witness for the Government. According
to her story Wampner told her late in
N191s the bank was getting too much
money out Of exchange and told her they
would split some Of the money between
them. This was done for a period OF
about two years. Then, she said Wamp-
ner was taken to another depa rtmeut, and
she carried on the same scheme with
knight.
When asked what her duties were with
Wampner she answered:
'oh. l just did general turnkey work
for him
The transactions extended over a period
of more than three years and involved,
according to bank officials about 5000
Wampner was not connected with all of
them.
7 Miss Cochrane, n very prepossessing
young woman. was cool and deliberate
/ on the stand and told her story In a
| deliberate, straightforward manner which
apparently impressed the jury.
I When she was tesffying as to how
much money they took out Of the e1-
change fees, Judge Anderson said:

&c would bear"
Yes, l guess that was It," Miss Coch-
