' TARIFF BILL TO BE CALLED UP IN THE SENATE TODAY to Compromise With the En- Washington, April 19.—The adminis- tration tariff bill is to be called up to- morrow in the senate, but in the absence of Senator McCumber, republican, North Dakota, who is to have charge of it, the program for its conkideration was tonight somewhat indefinite, Senator McCumber was returning to- night from his home in North Dakota and planned to be on hand in time to pi- lot the bill's course from the outset. Some senators on the finance committes hoped that the usual reading of the measure could be dispensed with, but since this would require uhanimous con- sent ,they were not very optimistic. If the reading of the 440 page doca- ment is insisted upon there will not be much smore than that accomplished to- morrow. With the reading over, or di: pensed with, the usual procedure would be for Mr. McCumber to make the open- ing address, explaining the work of his committee majority. Generally, on a bi'l of this magnitude there would be two or three weeks of general debate, but the practice in this regard was departed from by the late Chairman Penrose, when the tax ision legislation was be- fore the senate last year and there were Indications that it might be departed from again in the case of the tariff bill. Senator Simmons, of North Carolina, ranking democrat on the finance commit- tee, said -the minority report would not be ready tomorrow. He will open the general democratic onslaught on the measure, but it is not now certaln when he will speal \ political sul-commission at any time they were called. as they had prepas their general reply to the London experts. ‘There !s nothing confidentlal or pri- vat about’ our position,” continued M.
