MIGHT MEAN HIS DEFEAT 8peaker Cannon Cannot Afford to Discipline “Insurgents.” Washington, Aug. 6—A number of the Republican “rule insurgents” have not gone back to the “reservation.” The close vote on the tariff confer- ence report in the house showed this. An incipient boom for Sereno E. Payne, author of the tariff bill, for speaker of the next congress, has, in connection with this showing of “in- surgent” strength, caused several of Speaker Cannon's friends to contend that “Uncle Joe” cannot afford to dis- cipline those Republicans who held important committee assignments in the last congress and who voted with the “Insurgents” at the beginning of the present session. There was no secret made at that time of the speaker’s intention to de- pose Representative Cooper of Wis- consin and Representalive Gardner of Massachusetts from the chairman- ships respectively of the insular af- fairs committee and the committee on industria] arts and expositions. There is no indlcation that the speaker has changed nis decision on this point, but a numoer of the “stalwarts” have oxpressed to him bellef that he can- not afford at this time to be vindictive.

BELIEVED ALL WILL FAIL OF ADOPTION Many Amendments Proposed to “Joker” Resolution, Washington, Aug. 5.—Every amend- ment offered to the concurrent resolu- tion to correct the tariff conference report so as to make reductions in boots and shoes and harness and sad- dlery apply to manufactures from calf skin as well as leather from hides heretofore dutiable probably will be laid upon the table. The New York senators, who de- sired to have changes made in the conference report, called on Senator Aldrich with requests that he lend his influence toward the acceptance of such changes, but uniformally he re- Dplied that the resolution could not be opened up to cover subjects other than the leather schedule and the necessary changes in the maximum and minimum provision. It is difficult to forecast the length of discussion on the concurrent reso- lution. Many Southern senators have Indicated a desire to support amend- ments putting cotton tles and cotton bagging on the free list. It is un- derstood that Senator McLaurin will try to have agricultural implements magde free and that Senator Clapp will seek to amend the corporation tax provision so as to include “holding” companies among the taxed corpora- tions. It has been suggested also that amendments may be offered to the cotton and woolen schedules and that Senator Bristow may offer an amendment extending the scope® of the tariff hoard authorized by the bill. Senator Beveridge has had in contem- plation offering an amendment to the tobacco Internal revenue tax provi- sion for the purpose of restoring that provision to the form in which it was adopted by the senate.
