Senator Ilurton took tho floor for n speech thnt promised to Inst all day and It was apparent thnt tho republi can opposition wns prepared to hold Its lines firm until tho administration comromlra took a thoroughly definite form. Senator Weeks, author of the bill which Is nlso a part of tho coin- ( promise, predicted It could not lie ac i ceptcd In the senate with the amend , ments proposed by tlio administration , In tho I'ouse.

The provision Is chlofly responsible for the senato republican filibuster. Chairman Padgett of tho naval commltteo proposed a special rule for consideration of the administration proposal and arrangements were made for a caucus of house demo crats Monday night to bind tho ma jority to support It. The rule would discharge the com mltteo from further consideration of the Weeks naval auxiliary bill, take In the (Sore bill and tho other amend meats as outlined by tho administra tion, cut off all other amendments and allow six hours of general de bate, so tho ontlre measure could be put through tlio hohuso In a single session. It was expected the plan I would bring the ship bill before, the house Thursday or Friday, TO NKW YOKK, Feb.
