WORDY FIGHT RAGES LONG Count of Senate Declared to Have IH.olod ItcpeatedTy That Quo rum Was Lacking Willie Talking Went On. WASHINGTON'. Dec 10. Charges by Senator Owen, chairman of the bank Ing and currency committee, that th Itepublicans were trying to delay th currency bill and waste time by In sisting' on tne presence of a quorum, broke Into the smooth progress of cur rency debate in the Senate Inst night. For an hour and a half a word battle waged across the party dividing line of the chamber, threatening at times to break the bounds of Senate proprieties. The Republicans endeavored to show that Senator Owen himself had occu pied time "uselessly" In debate. . "Day after day Is used up here In Idle debate." declared Senator Owen. "That is the reason why seats are va cated." "If the Senator from Oklahoma has his 'way," retorted Senator Gallinger from the Republican side, "he would make his speech and then the argu ments would be closed and the vote taken." IVeekn Start Altercation. The altercation grew out of a state ment by Senator Weeks, who presented figures to show that from 8:30 until 9:20 o'clock last night a count of the Senate taken at ten-minute Intervals showed far less than a quorum, and In the majority of cases more Repub licans than Democrats present. , Senator Owen charged directly that the cnlls for a quorum were made to cause delay. He presented a list of more than a score of waiting legisla tive subjects, with the declaration that Congress was denying the country re lief while It filibustered over the cur rency bllL "If there Is any one Senator who wastes the time of this Senate without rhyme or reason it is the Senator from Oklahoma when he tries to read us a lecture on our duty." declared Senator Gallinger. "It Is our right and duty to see that business such as currency leg islation is carried on with at least a majority of Senators to their seats. Gallinger Fling at Owen. Senator Gallinger Intimated that Sen ator Owen had been derelict in his duties as a member of the appropria tion committee of the Senate, to which both Senators belong. "If my only opportunity to see him had been in the work of the appropria tions committee." he said. "I would not have been able to recognize the Senator from Oklahoma tonight." Senator Smoot denied emphatically that Republicans were attempting In any way to Impede work on currency. On the contrary, he said, they were attending closely to the sessions of the Senate and attempting to hasten con sideration of the bill as rapidly as was possible. Actual consideration of currency re form tonight was limited to speeches by Senators McLean and Crawford. Senator Crawford,- a Republican member of the committee, who Joined In the preparation of the Hitchcock bill, urged the adoption of that measure. He intimated, however, that .he would vote for the bill finally agreed on by the Senate even though his suggestions were not accepted because he recog nized the necessity of improving exlsV lng laws. Bk Control Aramed. Senator Hitchcock precipitated a gen eral argument earlier in the day over the provision of the Administration bill which would give the member banks control of the directorate of the re gional banks. He was supported by Senators Weeks. Bristow and Clapp In ' the contention that this provision would give wide opportunities for the monop olization of the credit of the country by big financial interests. They urged the adoption of the Hitchcock plan for pub lic ownership and Government control of the regional banks. Senators Owen and Shafroth'defended the Administration measure, declaring that the banks would not enter thesys tem and furnish the funds for the re gional banks unless control of thoe in stitutions was given them. unusual quantity of American hops is being shipped to Europe and that sooner or later the American brewers will wake up to the situation and find there are not enough hops left to go around. Manipulators, who sold a large part of the Oregon crop "short." have been trying to force the market to a lower level. but Mr. Krebs declares that -conditions warrant much higher prices. Ha said: "Taking statistics as a basts for the prices of any farm product, bops should sell at 40 cents, but in reality tne pres ent market stands at 20.Ilc. If pro duction and consumption have anything to do with the ultimate price of 191J hops, then-we will see at least 85 cents paid before next September. "The max Imam crop of the United States is estimated at 300.000 bales. Present indications point to the prob able manufacture of 70.000.000 barrels of beer the coming year. According to the Internal revenue figures. .7 pound per barrel of hops are being used, or a total of 289.000 bales, to which must be added 10.000 bales required for other purposes, such as yeast, etc., making a grand total of 279.000. Kxports to all countries amount to 105.000 bales and by the time the entire crop is mar keted, the exports will be at least u, 0'0 bales. Imports will not exceed 20, 000 Ies. That leaves for home con sumption 190.000 bales, or a shortage of 69.400 bales. "Assuming that the 1911 crop, with the surplus on hand at the time, did not more than meet requlremetna. and the 1912 crop did not leave much sur plus, we are confronted with a peculiar condition. The reason lor tne present low price of bops must be assigned to the financial condition of the brewers, who. unlike other years, must pay cash, and they simply buy for immediate re quirements, not realising the great shortage existing and the probable ad vance of 30 cents per pound later on, I oan see nothing but 35-cent hops.
