TO INSIST Oil VOTE OF TARIFF BILLS Kern Says Senate Will Not Adjourn With Only Reciprocity Thrashed Out. (National News Association) Washington, June 12. Senator Kern expressed regret today that he would probably not be able to accompany President Taft to Indianapolis on July 4. He said I wish that I might be there to take part, perhaps I can, but it does not look promising now. I think the seiect committee in Lorimer case may go west about July 4. In that case It might be possible for me to drop off at home." Senator Kern is not sanguine about an early adjournment. He said today that the house and some of the senators would not agree that the senate leaders should consider only the Canadian reciprocity and then adjourn. "We will insist upon a vote on the tariff bills that have already or will shortly pass the house," . said Kern.

"The only course open to us will be to move to discharge the finance committee from further consideration of bills, that it. If the committee pursues the course that has been ascribed to it by the current report. We can at least put them on record in this matter. I look for some sort of a compromise by which we can get an agreement for recess instead of an adjournment and congress will get away July 15 or August 1, for two, months and then "re-assemble ahead of the regular session and take up the tariff legislation in earnest."

THE MAYOR'S CABINET Met This Morning and Discussed City's Needs. The ice question came up in the meeting of the mayor's cabinet this morning.
