E TARIFF Bill
IT GOES THROUGH THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES.
THE VOTE WAS 217 TO 161
A Day Filled With Excitement, Mem
bers Being Keyed Up to
a High Pitch.
Washington. After three weeks of
consideration the Payne tariff bill was
passed by tike house of representatives
Friday night by a vote of 217 to 101.
One republican. Austin (Tex.), voted
against the measure and four demo
crats, all from Louisiana Rhoussard,
Estoplnal, Pujo and Wickliffo voted
for it.
The day was filled with excitement
from the moment the session began at
noon until the minute of adjournment.
The members were keyed up to the
highest pitch, and n practically full
membership remained on duty through
out. The final vote demonstrated the
capacity of tho republican organiza
tion to get together. The situation
with respect to lumber was greatly
relieved to the republican leaders
when it became manifest that the
advocates of the proposition placing
it on the free list were In the minor
ity. Recause or that fact. Mr. Fitz
gerald (N. Y.) charged that a mid
night deal had been made last night
whereby free lumber was to be voted
down and the rates on barley and
barley malt increased, and this not
withstanding the denials of Messrs.
Mann (111.) and Cushman (Wash.),
who offered the barley amendments.
The general public was greatly In
terested In the proceedings and the
galleries were packed. Hoth the dip
lomatic and executive reservations
likewise were fully occupied, Mrs. Taft
being among those present.
When the bill actually was passed
the republicans cheered lustily, some
dancing up and down the aisles and
patting their fellow members on the
back.
While more consideration in point
of time has been given by the house
to tho Payne bill, it was passed In
fewer days than the Dinglcy bill was
acted upon alter being reported to
the house. The Payne bill was Intro
duced on March 17, reported to the
house by the ways and means com
mittee on the following day and was
under general debate for sixteen days.
On Monday the rules committee re
ported a special order which closed
the general discussion and provided
for the consideration of the bill under
tho live-minute rule. Chairman Payne
handled the bill on the door and di
vided the time in such n way that only
paragraphs affected by committee
amendments and the amendments per
mitted by the special rule had been
considered when the time to vote on
the measure was reached.
Tho Dinglcy bill was under consid
eration In the house for two days
longer than the Payne bill, but the
house was not in session as long each
day as during the consideration of the
latter measure. All during the gen
eral debate on the Payne bill tho
house sat for ton and one-half hours
each day, thus establishing a record
for that body. Mr. Olmsted (Pa.)
presided as chairman of the commit
tee of the whole house on the state
of the union throughout the twenty
days that wore given to the bill.
CLAIMS OF RAILROADS.
Government Refuses to Pay for Dis

the claims of the New York Central

and the Union Stock Yards company
or Paltlmore against the government
tor disinfection work during tho re
cent epidemic or foot and mouth dis
ease in cattle. The secretary held
the claims were not proper subjects
for reparation by the government.
The claim of the railroad was for
$:,".".."" for cleaning and disinfecting
the stock yards at East Huffalo and
of its stock cars as the result of an
order of Secretary Wilson to prevent
the spread of foot and mouth disease
and the claim of the Union Stock
Ynrds of Ilaltiniore was for similar
work done In its ynrds.

A DAYLIGHT SALOUN
THIS HAS BEEN PROVIDED BY
THE LEGISLATURE.
VOTE IN THE HOUSE IS CLOSE
Put Through, It is Said, as a Measure
of Retaliation Against Omaha
Legislators.
Closing hours of the legislature
were marked by passage by the house
of tho bill by Senator Wiltse, amend
ed, to close all saloons in the state
at 8 o'clock In the evening and to
open at 7 a. m. The bill was at
once taken to the senate and the
amendments concurred in there. The
bill received 51 votes in the house.
"The action of the legislature."
says the Omaha Hoe correspondent,
"in passing this temperance measure
at the last minute of the last day of
the session after killing a 7 o'clock
closing bill, is credited to the Omaha
Bot'jitors. The action of the senators
in standing out for the interest of
the stock yards angered many mem
bers of the bouse, who took the op
portunity to get even. Gov. Shallen
berger also came in for his share of
credit because he Vetoed the Fot
Crook bill and thus lost one vote
ngalnst the 8 o'clock c losing measure.
When the bill was discussed in the
house the day previous it was amend
ed to leave Omaha out entirely, but
after the report of tho conference?
committee on tho physical valuation
bill and its adoption by the house,
Omaha was at once put back in the
Wilts.; bill In retaliation.
"That the news came as a shock
to Omaha expresses tho feeling mild
ly. It was not believed that the bill
could be passed, and when it was
given out early in the evening that
it had been passed the surprise of
everybody soon gave way to a feel
ing of wonderment as to what would
be the outcome. It means a crush
ing blow to the brewery and saloon
men or the city, and tho hotels and
restaurants will also suffer. Thejter
parties will have to go to the restau
rants before seeing tho play if they
want to sip a glass of wine or beer;
the lobster or the rarebit will, if
taken after the play, have to be ac
companied by pure water or a cup
of coffee."
The bill originally provided that
saloons which sold liquor on Sunday
should lose their license and the
house judiciary committee amended
It to close the saloons nt 8 o'clock.
Senator Wiltse brought up in tho
senate the matter of concurrence In
the house amendments to S. F. 28.",
during the afternoon and It was
pushed to vote with scarcely a word
of debate.
Woman's Suffrage Defeated.
