OPPOSING THE VOTE Opponents of the Tariff Bill After Ooncessions. AN -ALL- NIGHT SESSION LIKELY Senator Tellers Attack on the Measure. MR. WHITE’S SPEECH Though both Senator Allison and Senator Jones expect a vote on the tariff bill to- day, and the democrats generally do not think that anything is to be gained by further delay, there Is a cloud gathering, which threatens a stormy time before the final vote ts had. It is the purpose of Mr. Allison to have a vote before the Senate adjourrs today, and Mr. Jones of Arkansas, the democratic leader, sald today that he thought this program would be carried out. It is evident, however, that Mr. Allen and some others are determined to hang the bill. 1t ds understood that the opposi- tion have sufficient organization to make them confident of holding the Senate up until next weck. It is reported that they have received encouragement from certain republicars that concessions demanded for white pine lumber, cotton ties, ete., will be granted if they hold out firmly for it. Whether or not this report is true cannot be ascertained definitely, but it is evident that there is a purpose in certain quarters to make a desperate fight against a vote this week, and, if possible, to hold out un- fil some concession is secured. Might Prevent a Vote Today. Ii is quite possible to put this plan into operation, so far as to prevent a vote to- day, but it will probably lead to a con- tinuous session through tonight and to- morrow, and possibly tirough Sunday, if it is attempted. When the usual time for an adjournment arrives this afternoon, Mr. Allison will re- sist an adjournment, and it {fs belleved that a majority of the Senate will sustain him in his effort to maintain the session until a vote is had. Senators who are trying to keep up the fight will be provided with long speeches and will be physically capable of kecping up a filibuster for many hours, It is likely therefore that there will be a scene in the Senate before the tariff mat- ter is finally ended. The men who are making the effort to keep up ihe fight are the same who want to secure a vote on the Harris Pacific railroad resolution, and it may be that they will, in the end, be placated by an agreement for a vote to be had on that resolution if they will let up on their tariff fight. ‘There is likely to be an all-night session tonight, at all events, if Mr. Allison insists on a vote. When the Senate met today there was no outward evidence that the session was fast drawing to a close, although senators gath- ered in groups and discussed the prospects of getting a ve House bill was passed authorizing the President to suspend discriminating duties imposed on foreign vessels and commerce. Mr. Allison then moved to proceed with the tariff conference report, but Mr. Till- man contested this with a motion to take up h adversely renorted yes- an investigation of alleged sen- ulation in Sugar stock. Mr. Tillman was about to begin a speech, en Mr. Allison made the point of order that debate not in order, and the pre- siding officer sustained the point. Mr. Till man thereupon asked for a yea and vote, on which his motlo! 15, nays 35.

A joint resolution was passed for the erection of a government building at the trans-Mississippi international exposition at_Omai y, for atorial spec The consideration of the tariff confer- ence report as then resumed, and My. Teller (Col.) took the floor fora general speech, He said he did not favor the pending bill, and did not believe it would accomplish the purposes of its -frlends. Its passag! ever, would dispose of the question d en- able Congress to devote its attention to other subjects. He regarded the money question a» the paramount one. The last campaign was not, in his judgment, an in- dorsement of the gold standard. A great many people who voted for the republican candidate did not believe in the gold standard, but felt that the tariff qu Uon was of more importance than that affecting finance. Mr. Teller turned his attention to the political methods of the last campaign. It was the most remarka- ble contest in our history, he said; remark- able for the agencies set at work and the methods employed for the first time. A system of terrorism, of deception, of fraud, the like of which had never before been ‘seen, was put in operation. And having been successful in this the senator expressed the fear that such methods had beccme a permanent part of our political system, until the people were aroused and repudiated them. If any one challenged these statements then, Mr. Teller said, he would go into details. Mr. Teller spoke ironically of republi- can promises of prosperity, first during the election, then preceding’ inauguration, then when the tariff bill was framed. Mr. Teller commended the recent State Department paper on the seal question as “that remarkable paper of good American ideas expressed in a good old-fashioned way.” He said he did not know who the author was, but would congratulate him if he did. Mr. Teller again returned to campaign methods and their influence in shaping the benefits conferred by the bill. Great sums of money had been used in the last cam- paign by the successful party, he said. He had heard it stated that the republican party had spent more money in the last campaign than in all the previous cam- paigns of its origin. However this might be, certain it was that every great industry was taxed, that every great financial Insti- tution was taxed, and they all contributed. The world would never know what these sums were, and they could be judged only by examining this tariff bill. These great contributing concerns had come here and said ‘n substance: “As we helped you win that fight against anarchy and socialism, what are we to have to recoup our ad- vances?” Only on that basis could a hun- dred things in this bill be explained. “It would be worth a mint of money,” exclaimed Mr. Teller, “if we could know what the sugar trust gave,what the Stand- ard Oil Company gave, and what the great financial concerns gave. I suppose the finance committee know, and that they un- derstand what measure of benefit must be meted out to them.” The senator then went {nto the details of the bill, in particular criticising its pro- visions as to agriculture ‘and labor and severely commenting on the action of the conference committee in abandoning the tax on stocks and bonds. When Mr. Teller argued gn the constitu- tionality of the tax on bonds, stocks, etc., Mr. Allison joined issue with him, saying that state courts had held that certain classes of bonds were exempt from taxa- tion, and the tax, if imposed, could not ap- ply equally to these and all other bonds. “Did not the finance committee propose the stamp tax?” queried Mr, Lindsay. “Certainly,” answered Mr, Teller. “And wasn’t it sanctified by the republi- can caucus?” asked Mr. White. Mr. Teller answered that he did not know as to caucus sanctification, but certainly it was a committee proposition: it was clear- ly constitutional, and any inconsistencies in it could have been remedied. After examining the annual expenditures of the government, Mr. Teller declared that the tariff bill would not produce sufficient revenue, and that it would feil in its pur- pose of being a revenue measure. The dis. tress of the country could not be remedied by the tariff, he said. Whenever the re- publican party, or the party in power, rec- ognized what the real trouble was, when they learned that it was not more taxes but more money that the peop! there would be no difficulty in findife the rem- edy. He would not ‘discuss the financiel question, for, he said, he awaited an un- answerable argument in the failure of the pending bill. me Mr. Teller spoke sarcastically of the re- ports that the President would recom- Pee eeronrosecocteentoctecte tecteeimtentontoctectnenontostortetnt > > * ‘There the variety as large as any in town.

It was stated, too, he said, that the Secretary of the Treasury had called to his aid that remarkable agency, the In- fanapolis monetary convertion, a combi- caren of self-constituted reformists, who got together in behalf of the gold standard. he senator, in indignant tones, said he mted this suggestion that the Presi- dent would say to Congress: “Authorize me to pick out a commission of ten men to tell you what to do on the financial question. The American people were not ready to turn over the great monetary question to a commission or to the indianapolis con- vention. He believed the people them- selves would settle that question and set- tle it rightly in 1900. He said that the House and Senate were commissioned by the people to legislate and intimated that the President was discour- teous to Congress to ask that it be taken out of their hands. Mr. Teller next referred to the enforced resignation of President Andrews, an- nounced today, because of his advocacy of the free coinage of silver, which he de- nounced as one of the most shameful acts of abasement the world had ever seen. “Thank God,” said he in impassioned tones, “that President Andrews was big enough to refuse to be stifled!” ‘The trustees of that university declared that Pres‘dent Andrews was not in accord with the views of the great patrons of that institution. This demonstrated, said Mr. Teller, the methods which these million- aires, who had grown rich by robbery and jobbery, pursued. Their influence com- pelled the trustees of a great educational institution to force from the head of the institution an eminent educator because his continuance it alienate some of the patrons of the college. There was not a big college in Kurope, Mr. Teller continued, that did not have cne or more professors who were today teaching the economic doctrines which President Andrews held. He made ths statement, he said, on the authority of a professor of Oxford. In no other country of enlightenment and decency save this could such r thing have occurred, said Mr. Teller. He characterized it as one ot the most infamous chapters in 100 years of our history, not because a famous educator had been turned out, but because it showed the trend of public opinion in the direction of destroying that freedom of thought upon which our government was founded. In conclusion, Mr. Teller announced that he had no desire to return to the folds of the republican party.
