Tariff Bill.

Senate Will lie

WASHINGTON , May 22. The democratic
senators held a caucus today and decided to
naugurate their fight upon the tariff bill as
soon as the bill Is taken up In the ecnato by
i motion to strike out the Internal revenue
features of the bill relating to beer and
tobacco. This result was reached after n
llscusslon , lu which practically all the sena
tors present participated. The conclusion
was unanimous that this was the wise nnd
politic course to pursue. The talk was
jascil largely upon the proposition to In
crease the tax upon beer , which was gener
ally criticised ns an effort to Increase the
prlco of "the poor man's beverage , " which
was pronounced wholly unjustifiable In time
of peace and with $120.000,000 of Idle money
In the treasury. The proposed beer tax was
condemned as a war tax.
The discussion ot other features of the
tariff bill was only desultory and no conclu
sion beyond that stated was reached. The
uigar schedule was the subject of frequent
remarks and there was discussion of liio
advisability of offering a substitute for u.
but no conclusion to that effect was arrived
at. It was made apparent that every demo-
cratlc senator present would probably vote
against the bill.
Senator Gorman urged the advisability ot
the Introduction ot a substitute for the en
tire bill ntnl made a speech In Biipport of
the proposition , but It was soon made np-
parent that the sentiment of the caucuo
was almost unanimous In opposition to this
course and the proposition was not pressed
to a vote. Mr. Gorman gave only n brief
outline of n substitute. He thought a
bill could be prepared which would levy a
revenue duty on tea nnd coffee and other
articles which would Increase the govern
ment revcnnco sufficiently to make the Wll-
soiii bill sutlsfactory and thus score a point
of Importance.
The general sentiment of the caucus was
opposed to any policy of delay. No set
speeches will be made In opening the de
bate , and there probably will be no effort
from the democratic side of the chamber
to t prevent the taking up of the schedules
Immediately I after Mr. Aldrlch's preliminary
statement is concluded.
The democrats express the hope that dis
agreements will develop among the repub
licans , and for this reason no general opinion
was expressed In the caucus ae to the time
that will be consumed by the debate.
STATEMENT IY ) GOUMAN.
With the doncliislon of the caucus Senator
Gorman , chairman , gave out the following
statement concerning It :
The conference of democratic senators
was held todny and It was unanimously
ngrced liy them that notwithstanding the
delay In furnishing the comparative stntc-
ment.t , which would enable them Intelli
gently to consider the- bill , there would be
no opposition to Immediately proceeding
with the consideration of the same on Tues
day , ns they recognized the business Inter
ests of the country reiiulre as speedy a dis
position of the. question ns Is consistent
wltli an Intelligent consideration of the
inrnsure. They were further unanimously
of the opinion that the excessive Int-renses
In rules on Imported : irticcs , provided for
both in the Dins ley bill nnd ns reported to
the senate , should be nntngonlzcu only to
the extent of exposing their enormities.
UecosnizInK. however , that the republican
party Is committed to those increases , the
democrats will be eontenl with only u fnlr
( llscusslon upon these propositions. The
demociats were further unanimously of the
opinion that they would oppose the. In
creased tax on beer , tobacco , cigars and the
other Items embraced In the Internal
revenue schedules. Neither party was
committed to such Increases and there Is
no governmental necessity for such In
creased burdens upon those artlr.lcs.
CIVIL SI3RVIC13 ISVBSTICJATIO.V.
Senator Rornimi ScciireH Appointment
nf Two Hundred I3iniiI y ! H.
WASHINGTON , May 22. The civil service
committee of the senate continued its ses
sions today. Several letters were received
from chiefs of bureaus , among others one
from Mr. Miller , acting : commissioner of In
ternal rovMiuc , who suggested the propriety
ot amendments to the civil service rules. He
thought the number of exccpted places should
be Increased. These exceptions should In
all cases Include the chief deputy and cashier
of revenue collectors lu the larger districts.
He also suggested that the collector should
have coitrol of the selection of a large num
ber 1 of hia subordinates. Commlr-sloner of
1I
Patents I Hutterworth advocated a change per
mitting ' lieadp of departments to select their
executive staffs , regardless of the recom
mendations of the civil ccrvice commission.
Harold Benedict of the printing ofllce ,
brother of the recent public printer , ex
pressed the opinion that the results under the
present sjstem were GO per cent better than
under the "spoils" system. Senator Elklns
wss dcslrour of knowing how many appoint
ments had been secured by any one mem
ber of congnes , and the wltncsu answered
that about seventy-five were credited to Rep
resentative HIchardson of Tennessee , chair
man of the house committee on printing and
about 200 to Senator Gorman , chairman of
the senate committee.
