The deputies voted against the government, 288 to C4. and this evening the ministers de cided to present their resignations to President Fallleres. -The adverse -vote ef the chamber waa due to the admission by General Golran, the minister of ' war.

Riotous Scenes in Illinois Legislature Waterway Bill ii Defeated and Num ber of Members Insist Votes Are Wrongly Recorded. SPRINGFIELD. 111., Juna S3. Speaker Adkins wielded the gavel to the defeat of the administration's waterway bill In the house today. Riotous scenes followed, but the lack of a floor leader kept the water way adherents from overriding the speak er's ruling. The records show that the bill was de feated by a vote of S ayes to CO nays. Rep resentative Leavltt announced that he voted In the affirmative, but he I recorded against the measure. Representative W. E. Anderson insists that he voted In the affirmative, but Is not recorded. These two votes would have given the bill the constitutional majority of 77 vot B(ees- sary for its passage.

One Party RECIPROCITY WILL NOT FAIL Senator Penrose Predicts Passage of Bill After Some Delay. COALITION A ROPE OF SASD He Says Differences Between Demo crats and Insurgents Are go Rad leal that Combination Can not Last. WASHINGTON, June J3.-Benator Pen rose, chairman of the senate committee on flnai.ee. said today that the Canadian reci procity bill will not fail by reason of the new coalition between Insurgent republic an and democrats, which placed the regu lar republicans in the minority. Speaking Of that coalition he said: ' "It Is a rope, of sand and it will net hold. The performance of the . insurgent and democrats on Wednesday .was effective for the time, but the differences between the twjo. elements are so radical that tha ooso bloatlon will not continue, and If the pur pose of It was to defeat Canadian reci procity ft will fall. "With the- tariff question dumped into the senate In connection with reciprocity, delay is to be expected, but In the end reciprocity will go through, and it then will remain to be seen what shall be done with the tariff bills now before the senate and those yet to be presented." The outlook in the senate Is for a long and somewhat dreary period of debate, wl'h no prospect rf relief. Under the presei.t cordltlons, with no party In control and no leadership recognised, no one can say in advance what la going to happen, or when anything may transpire out of the ordi nary. The reporting ot the free list bill and the woolen bill adversely means nothing more than that they are thrown Into the senate and that the senate may do as it plfes with tbem regardless of the commit'et's recommendation. The eight majority m -rubers of the finance committee have no more influence over the fate ot the b lis In the senate than have any other s.nillir number of Influential senators. Their rec ommendation would not prevent the pas sage of the bills tomorrow If other condi tions were favorable. Frill the members -ot the committee are conceded to have accesa to btter Inform. tlcn than have other Senators, and whn Senator Penrose predicts favorable action on the reciprocity bill he voices what Is unquestionably the predominating opInU n of a majority of senators regarding the outlook for the measure. ' Even democrats- and Insurgents agree I that the probabilities are favorable to the success of the reciprocity bill, and a ma jority of the democra's are n-w unqurs tlonably opposed to any amendment of It. There la a hare possibility of agreeing over the La Follette-Brtstow-Cummlns tariff amendments, but in the face of certainty that the president will take a positive posi tion against all amendments It. la extremely doubtful whether any rider can be placed upon the bill. Senate Will Vote on Boot Amendment Monday Afternoon WASHINGTON, June 23. -The senate agreed today to vote next Monday on the Root amendment to the wpodpulp and paper schedule of the Canadian reciprocity trilL The proposal for a vote Monday was made by Chairman Penrose of the finance committee and there waa no opposition. The senate will not be in session tomorrow. Rumor ot a recess of congres from July 1 to October 1 to tide the extra ses sion over the heated season were revived today along with an agreement In the sen ate to adjourn from today until Monday. The adjournment ot the senate over until Monday was to allow Vive President Sher man to leave the city on business.
