STORM OF CRITCISM HEARD
Bristow Moves to Retain House Rate
and Forces Vote, Which Is Won
by Aldrich Heybum's
AVrath Aroused.
"WASHINGTON, May 5. The reading
of the tariff bill and the adoption of
amendments passed over when the
measure was flrst read in the Senate
wrj resumed today, having: been dis
placed since April 23 by speeches of
Senators who have discussed the
measure as a whole.
Amendments on the schedules for
lead ore and for lead products from
which paint is manufactured called
forth a storm of criticism. Bristow
moved that the House provision of 2
cents per pound instead of 3 cents
per pound on orange mineral, as pro
posed by the committee, be retained,
this being the iirst of the committee
series of increases relating to lead
that was reached.
The regular order being called for on
a demand by Bristow for an aye and
nay vote, the rollcall was begun. Hey
burn attempted to take the floor and the
chair ruled that it was too late to in
terrupt the call. A murmur of protest
was heard In various parts of the cham
ber. Heyburn angrily announcing:
"If we start in that spirit there will
le trouble."
The vote on orange mineral was re
garded as a test, and the rate pro
posed by the committee of 3 cents per
pound instead of the House rate of 2
cents per pound was agreed to, 41 to 3a.
TAFT WANTS INHERITANCE TAX
He Will Favor Levy on Incomes Only
as Last Resort.
WASHINGTON. May 6. The possibili
ties of the passage of the tariff bill and
the adjournment of the special session of
Congress before June 15 or July 1 seem
to have vanished. This conclusion has
h?cn reached by the President as a re
sult of recent talks with Senators and
Hepresentatives, and he made it known
today.
The Senate is not making the headway
that was expected and before the new
tariff can be presented to the President
there must ensue a long conference be
tween the representatives of the two
houses.
In view of conflicting reports as to the
President's attitude on the special taxa
tion proposition, he has reiterated his
position to recent callers. If it should
be shown that further revenues are
needed, the President will adhere to his
original proposition that a graduated In
heritance tax is the most just that could
be levied.
If such a tax should not prove suffi
cient, or if it should not appeal to the
majority of Congress, the President fa
vors the imposition of an excise tax on
the dividends of corporations. An In
come tax, he has always believed, should
be levied only as a last resort.
PHILIPPINE TARIFF REVISED
House Committee Puts Oil and Hides
on Free List.
WASHINGTON, May 5. The mew
Philippine tariff bill, which will be a
supplementary measure to the Payne
tariff bill, will be reported to the House
tomorrow. The ways and means com
mittee today agreed to the measure as
redrafted and introduced by Payne.
. The principal change made in the orig
inal measure affects the steel and oil
schedules. Petroleum and its products
are placed on the free list, to which
liides are also added. Light steel rails
for tramways are provided with a lower
duty than was contained in the original
bill, and a lower rate Is placed on sugar
making machinery.
SESSION MAY BE CONTINUED
Congress Not Likely to Get Througb
Before July 1.
WASHINGTON. May 5. President
Taft has come to the conclusion, as a
(result of a. talk with Senators and
members of the House of Representa
tives during the last two days, that
there Is little chance for adjournment
of Congress before June 15 or July 1.
The President has also declared that
, be favors an Income tax nly as a last
resort, that recourse In ca: j of a de
ficiency under the new tariff act should
first be had to an Inheritance, and next
to a corporation tax.
Sugar Men Will Fight.
COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo.. May 5.
Organized opposition to any reduction In
the duty on sugar is the object of the
movement started here yesterday by beet
growers, sugar factory men and business
