DOLLIVER GETS AFTER ALDRICH fowan Denounces Speech of Senate Leader. LATTER TRIES TO ESCAPE Btarts to Leave Chamber, but the Speaker Appeals to Him to Remain and Hear What He Has to Say—In- sists That the Duty on Cotton Goods Has Been Increased by the Sen- _ate Bl ‘Washington, June 7.—At once tak- Ing the floor when Mr. Aldrich asked for an aye and no vote on the cotton cleth schedule Senator Dolliver (Ia.) made the senatorial rafters ring with denunciation of the speech made by the Rhode Island senator on that schedule. “I desire to avoid any harsh criti- tism of what has been done,” said Senator Dolliver in opening, “but I am not able to avoid a plain, straight- forward statement of what this com- mittee now asks the senate to do.” “Men are asked,” continued Mr. Dol- liver, “to cast their votes here not upon testimony but upon authority of a committee and it becomes my duty to inquire into the sacredness of that substitute for facts and figures.” Saying he had had no opportunity to read the speech of the senator from Rhode Island Mr. Dolliver com- mented on the statement that “only 10 per cent of the cotton cloth sched- ule had been changed.” Denying this by a counter state- ment on the authority of Senator Smoot that only 30 per cent were un- changed he was quickly interrupted by Mr. Aldrich. “I said,” interposed the senator from Rhode Island, “that less than 10 per cent of the total cotton importations, which amount in the aggregate to $78,000,000, were affected by these pro- visions.” Accepting this correction Mr. Dol- Hver declared that thirty years ago he had gone everywhere carrying in his satchel speeches of the senator from Rhode Island upon the tariff so that he could refer to his statistics, in which, he said, he then had faith, which was gradually slipping away. Asks Aldrich to Remain. Mr. Aldrich then arose to leave the chamber. “I hope the senator will remain to bear what I have to say,” suggested the Towa senator in an appealing tone of volce. “I had an engagement,” said Mr. Aldrich, smiling and hesitating. “Well, you have an engagement here,” retorted the Towan. “I say you will not turn your back upon what I have to say without taking the moral consequences that will naturally arise in such a case.” Mr. Dolliver then exhibited a copy of a petition of merchants of New York, which was a declaration against any increase of tariff duties. Respond- ing to a request by the senator from Rhode Island Mr. Dolliver read the mnames of the merchants. “Please state which of them are im- porters,” said Mr. Aldrich. “Well, some of them are the leading merchants of this country,” respond- ed Mr. Dolliver. A cross fire of criticism and defense followed, Mr. Dolliver, Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Flint participating. It per- tained to the interests of the signers of the petition, Messrs. Aldrich and Flint contending that they were im- porters and interested in low duties, while the Iowa senator continued to urge the general representative capac- ity of the petitioners. “It's a strange thing,” declared Mr. Dolliver, rising to full height and spoaking in his boldest tone, “to find the leaders of the Republican party reproaching the merchants of the country with extravagances which have grown up in connection with the protective tariff.” RAID CAUSES EXCITEMENT Officers Break Into Alleged Clearing House for Bucketshops. Cincinnati, June 7.—County Prose- cutor Hunt, followed by ten deputies, made a spectacular raid on the Con- solidated Stock Exchange, alleged to be a clearing house for all the bucket- shops operating in the city.

The paraphernalia was carted away in wagons to the court- house. W. D. Klausman, B. H. Moor- head and Louis Foster were arrested on warrants charging them with op erating a bucketshop.
