The leaders f the house expect to BCD the Cuban eclproclty bill passed during the present week , but they admit that the obato may bo prolonged so that the Inal vote will not bo reached until loxt wook. When the niuomiro la brown open for amendment , a great number of amendments will bo offered > y thu Democrats with a vlow to open- tig up a way for amending the sched ules of the Dlnglcy tariff law. It la mown In advance that all such amendments will bo held to bo not germane to the bill whoso title pro vides for reciprocity with Cuba. . . Ap- icals will bo taken from the rullnga of the chair on the general tariff amendments , but it Is certain that with possibly ono exception the at- cmpt will be unsuccessful. That will jo the amendment to take the differ ential off refined sugar. A number of lopiiblicaiiB who arc opposing the bill have announced that they will vote to overrule the chair on that iroposltlon and Democrats expect to jo able to cast a solid vote for It. The Republican opposition to the bill , as shown last Tuesday on the motion : o go Into committee of the whole , s In the neighborhood of 40. Added to the Democratic vote , If solidly cast , the opposition would have a clear majority of 10. But the Repub lican leaders profess confidence In their belief that not enough of the Republican recalcitrants will go to the length of voting to override the chair to make with the Democrats a majority of the house. Moreover , they assert that some df the Democrats - , crats themselves will hesitate to adopt this method of getting a vote on a proposition which they contend Is plainly not germane. If the danger Involved in the amendment to abolish the differential is passed the bill will have plain sailing on its final pas sage , as a majority of the Democrats will vote for It. In accordance with the agreement reached on Friday last , the senate on Wednesday will vote on the Chi nese exclusion bill and the present understanding Is that the Philippines government bill will be taken up Im mediately afterwards.
