Small progress was made in the consideration of the measure as a whols, but elght pages being considered before adjournment. There was much debate on the various amendments that were acted upon. Senator Delliver concluded his speech be- gun yesterday. When Senator Dolll arose to resume his spesch on the wool and cotton schedules of the tariff bill shortly after the senate assembled today, but few senators were in their places. Mr. Nelson suggested ‘'no quorum.'’ Benators came in rapldly in re- sponse to the call and fifty-six answered to their names. Mr. Dolliver immediately proceeded with his discourse. Benator Ald- rich was not In his seat at the beginning of the session. Replylng to a suggestion Mr. Aldrich made yesterday, Mr. Dolliver declared th it made no difference to him it a man of the acute mind of Benator Vest had found in the Dingley bill some of the things he himself had discovered in the pending m-asure. “My frlends, the senator from Rhode Is- land,” he continued, “seemed to get a good deal of comfort yesterday by sneeffing at me because I had sought the advice of persons qualified to speak on these ques- tions. Such & thing was not only uncalled for, byt It fs little short of ridiculous when the senator sits here and in answer to questions reads from pamphlets prepared by experts. In view of that course, I submit he Is in no position to complain if T talked with wise and good men to prepare myself to address this body and the people of the United States, ““Ph bl pending before the semate’ he sald, “was largely a matter of mathe- matics and it could be understood by care- ful study." Cotton Rates (nereased. Recalling that Mr. Aldrich had sald yes- terday that It would be shown to the sen- ate that no changes Increasing the cotton rates had been made by the senate com- mittes finance, Mr. Dolliver sald that if that was a correct statement he would expeet all the items carrying senate amend- ments stricken from the emasure. The fact was, he said that the cotton ra were increased. He then read from a New York newspaper, which, he added, had for twenty years heen watchful of the spirl ual side of the senator from Massachu- setts (Mr. TLodge), & statement to the effect that Mr. Lodge had said that as reported from the committee on finance on the cot- ton schedule as amended by the commitiee was “of great value to chusetts. i'he same article, appeared in a Boston paper. Mr. Lodge appearing in the chamber this moment, recugnized the the statement and made Inquiry concerning it, to which Mr. Dolllver replied that (Mr. Lodge) was quoted as saying “the ad valorem rate on cotton tncreased.” Mr. Lodge said that a misquotation. “1 stated,” he said, “the advalorem rates had not been Increased.” ““Then, responded Mr. Dolliver, “§ou weore mistaken in stating that, as 1 have demonstrated to the senate, and If you did not state that to the Boston news- Paper, you omitted a very Important part of your duty.” ‘I have mathematically demonstrated that these rates have been increased, Mr. Doiliver. “1 have great doubt about matical demonstration,” Lodg “I also.” sald the lowan, bowing to the Massgchusetts senator, “have grave doubts about some of the Infirmities of yourself. Referring to the board of appralsers at ‘ew York as “e!der statesmen who falled to be re-elected,” Mr. Dolliver explained the ineércerigation of cotton, declaring that the 1| cent a yard for that or similar processes provided in the bill was in excess ©of the cost of mercerization Bricks or Boguets! Mr. 8moot sald the mercerization process required yptian or long Sea island cot- ton. Mr. Dolliver denled this statement, and, turning to the demeocratic side, said thet was the cotton for which the senator from Bouth Cafolina had so worked for a tariff duty Mr. Tilman quickly disavowed any desire 10 have a duty on Sea island ootton. He added he was enjoying secing the senator from lowa ‘“‘throwing bricks at his col- leagues on the republican side,” but that be did not waut him to throw them at him. 1 thought 1 was throwing him & bou- quet,” ressonded Mr. Dolllver Mr. Smoot declared cotton lost something in mercerigation “Yes,' replied Mr. Dolliver, “the process of mercerization 1s like washing your hands —of course you lose & little in the waste. After the laughter on the floor and the galleries had died out Mr. Dolliver resumed. He sald he did not hold the members of the finance committee re- aponsible for the bill, as they had been forced to hire merchants to explain the measure to them Mr. Dolllver sald the time was coming when the controversy over the tariff would e transferred by law to a tribunal, where . 1t could be passed upon “‘with more wisdom than & person was Mable to meet about | the corridors of the capitol.

It restralned the state courts from interfering in the regulation of rates, but it was general in its application. Judge | John . Philips tseued injunction a weck later in the federal court which ak lutely tied the hands of every state court every state and county official and every private citizen against regulating ralirond rates, Arguments for a permanent in- sunction on Judge Philips' order were set for today. This order was intended { prevent the elrcult court of 8t. Louls from proceeding with an Injunction against the rallroads in Missourl.

Tt was instituted by Seebert Jones. circuit attorney of St. Louls, at the sug gestion of state officers All of the proceedings of the federal court for the western distriot of Missourt in these rate cases have, with a single ex ception, been handlad by Judge McPher- who is the presiding judge of the southern district of Towa. Judge Philips Who 18 presiding judge in the United States district court for the western dls- trict of Missourl, has, in the mean- ! time, been engaged with cases in the cir- | cult court of appeals, and his only entry into the present litigation has been to issue the temporary restraining order against the state courts, simply to sava Judge Mc- Pherson from coming to Kansas City to perform that act ‘ At the opening of the court here today Judge Phillipe assumed the bench only long | enoush to make a brief statement of his connection with the cases, this as a result of Representative Murphy’s resolution de- manding & congressional investigation of the acts of these two judges. Judge Philips then vacated the bench and Judge Mc- Pherson, who had arrived during the morn ing from St. Louls, was left to the arguments of the state and the {in the Injunction sult Statement by J Judge Philips said he | at this juncture to state “what every in- | formed persons knows,” that the rate cases were passed upon and left entirely to| | Judge McPherson, he having been assigned {to that work at the very outset of their | consideration in court.

He consented and granted the temporary order, a hear- ing on which was the business of the court today. ‘As every lawyer knows” sald Judge Phillips, “a temporary order does not touch the merits of the case, but is made to main- tain the status quo of the points involved. Continutng Judge Philips said “1 want It distinctly understood that I do ot want to shirk any responsibility what- ever. 1 do not want to shift one atom of responsibility that belongs to me upon Judge McPherson.
