MEMBERS QUITE ROWDY IH DEBATE Oil TARIFF BILL Tumult Among the Revisers Almost Resulted in Several Fistic Encounters and Near Riots.

Lumber Schedule, Which Provides a Duty of $1 per Thousand Feet, Remains Same by Close Vote.

Carolina, one of the democratic members of the ways andme&ns committee, and alleged that he was insincere iu his public attitude on the tariff. Clark declared that he did not go around secretly negotiating- with Republicans lo take care of the industries in his district, but made the fight in the open, reiterating that he would vote for the Payne bill if it furnished protection for sea island cotton, in which his constituents were interested. The two votes taken Indicate that the ways and means committee will, as a rule, be sustained in the schedule it has written to the Payne bill. The amendment to the lumber schedule of the Payne tariff bill, which was offered by Mr. Fordney. and adopted today by the house, strike out the provision in Paragraph 197 of the Pay no bill. The paragraph fixies the duty on sawed lumber at J 1 per 3.0i feet ,an-l also fixes the duty on other classes ot lumber. The proviso requires that the maximum rates provided for in sections 3 and 4 of the bill shall be imposed upon lumber coming from any

country which fixes an export duty on

called It the "long awaited "great Am

forceful, brilliant and thoroughly American drama. "The Great Divide" comes here under the personal direction of Heary Miller, who presented

the piece most of last season and an

country. The paragraph was -directed especially against Canada.

Washington, April 7. Lumber at $1 per 1,000 feet and hides free was the result of two votes taken in the house, sitting in committee of the whole, yes

terday afternoon. The lumber pro

tectionists, however, got a thoroughly

good scare because they won by the

very close margin of six votes against

the advocates of free lumber.

Those who objected to a duty on this

article still have another chance wher the bill is reported from the committee of the whole and the house takes a

separate vote on this schedule. Whatever the outcome of this vote is It will

be very close one way or the other.

The. advocates of the duty on hides

were badly beaten, the vote to keep on

the dutiable list being only 106 as against 167 in favor of the hides going on the free list as provided for in the

bill.

The Barley Schedule.

After disposing of these two items the conynittee of the whole tackled the

barley schedule, but the house adjourn

ed before a vote was reached. The

present duty on barley is 30 cents a bushel, and the Payne bill reduces it to 15 cents. Representatives from states which grow this cereal want the

present duty retained. Among them is Representative Tawney, of Minnesota,

chairman of the committee off appro priations who was one of the most act

ive of the advocates of free lumber. In

retaliation for his industrious cam

paign against the lumber duty the lumber protectionists have served notice that they will do their utmost to prevent increasing the Payne schedule on barley. Tumultuous Session. The session was tumultuous in the

exhibition of feeling during the debate and votes on the schedules mentioned. The bill is now being considered under the five-minute rule, and dozens of members participated in the discus, sion. which at times approached the personal stage. For example. Cushman (republican), of Washington, who favored the duty, walked up to Tawney, also a republican, and. thrusting his long bony finger under the nose of

the appropriations chairman, exclaim

ed in a tone which sounded very much like the hiss of the villain on the stage:

"If you are a republican then I am not

and do not want to be one." Later on,

when hides were under consideration,

the veteran ex-speaker. General Keifer,

of Ohio, and Chairman Paynes of ways

and means, came near engaging in a

personal encounter.

Although- party lines were largely lost sight of in the votes, the clashes

on the republican side were the merri

est and most spectacular. But the

democrats were also in a turmoil, indl

vidual members voting for protection on lumber and hides as they happened

to represent states in which these in

dustries flourish. Clark, of Florida.

in this instance unusual consideration has been given the matter of choosing the cast and making the production, which Is perfect in every detail.
