Senator Allison Charges of a Combination Senator Foraker Speaks of an Agreement Broken The Agreement Denied, but Proven Senator Allison 8or renders. - - Washington June 22. An exciting debate marked the consideration of the wool schedule. Which began In the sen ate today. Itv developed the first open disagreement oriTthe republican side of the chamber : led ' to a - warm person-; al exchange. 1 between Senators Car-, ter, of Montana, and Foraker, of Ohio, on the one hand and Senator Allison of Iowa,. In charge of the bill, on the other. " . - - As soon as the wool schedule was taken up, Senator Mantle, of Montana, submitted a substitute for paragraphs 347 and 361 inclusive, covering the three classes of wool "and the rates thereon. - Senator McLaurin,- of South Carolina," gave notice of a further amenament providing . . horizontal -reduction of 33 percent. on the rates reported by the committee. The paragraphs were then considered as reported, . being agreea. to on . tne provisions to the classes of wool up to paragraph 355. On the latter para.- graph,the committee amendments were struck out at the request of Senator Al lison. I They referred to skirted wools imported in 1890, and prior thereto. This brought the senate to the rates on the three classes of wool. On the first class the house rate was 11 cents per pound, the senate committee rate 8 cents per pound. Senator Allison moved to substitute 10 cents per pound. Ori ' second ' class wool ; the", house rate was 12 cents, the J. committee rate 9 cents. - Senator - Allison moved to sud- stitute 11 cents per pound. - Senator Mills, of Texas, demanded a separate vote on each proposition and the first vote was taken on Senator Al lison's motion to make the rate 10 cents per pound -on first class wool. There was some question as to tne form of the motion, whether it should be to reduce the house rate from 11 to Id cents, or increase the committee rate from"8 to 10 cnts.- The former was the form "of the motion,' which," being a re duction, secured an unexpectedly heavy affirmative vote. The motion to re duce from 11 to 10 cents prevailed yeas 55, nays 13. - ' The announcement of the vote was the signal for an unexepected outburst on the republican side of the chamber. Senator Carter, republican, of Mon tana, arose-and speaking deliberately and impressively, said the vote just grren'-disclosed-a-purpose rto- make re ductions in the rates on. wool. There would be a day of reckoning for such action.- In view of what had been aone, he asked that the consideration of the wool schedule, be now suspended. This declaration, coming from a re publican senator, caused a mild sensa tion, which was but the prelude to a dramatic scene in which Senators For aker and Allison, representing the finance committee, participated "Senator Carter alluded to a "combi nation" to reduce rates which, he said, would hear more about the matter be fore the" agreement was reached. Senator Foraker, with great positive- ness in his tones, said he had supposed there was an agreement as to the man ner of dealing with this wool schedule. Unless this agreement was respected then, declared Senator Foraker, ve hemently, every senator must act for himself. "Every senator appears to have acted for himself." answered Senator Alli son. ' :" " ' " "This senator has." added Senator Foraker, - defiantly. He-added that there was an agreement a. 'writing and not until he had entered the chamber today did he know of the changes which were contemplated. "And "I - do not propose." concluded Senator 'For aker with energy, "to be bound by any such action." ; Senator "Allison, still preserving his outward calm, said there was no writ ten, agreement. that, he knew...of, and he wished to resent. In. mild, terms, he sam, the suggestion pfa combination, that had been made by . the senator from Montana. The amendments now offer ed, he said, were an increase on the original committee rates on first and second class wool, although a reduction from the house rates, Senator .Foraker proceeded to explain t-", an agreement had been made rel f -fie' to -certain "kinds-and "grades of wools. Senator Allison discussed the subject of postponement and said he was will ing to pass over the schedule in dis pute. "I want to suggest," he said, "that senators are not to be driven, and that the senate is not a good place to drive." . "And that is why I wbn't be driven" retorted Senator Foraker. - ."Nor will I," came in Senator Alli son, for the first time flushing and showing great feeling." If there had not 'been an insinuation of a combina tion, he would have moved a postpone- ment of all paragraphs open to ques tion, but with the seriate "thrown into !Ondltl0n"Txtem"eirrrr-he .did not propose to submit to threats. "I am not to" bedrlven by 'threats by any body," prKfededSenator;AllisohBassipnately. "We are told we ar in a combination and that the combination will not-vof. for the bill.

But in 1895-7,' under' the1 present' arrangement $43,000 has been paid,-all going to the state ' printers,1 who did the ; work Nor . does this include the bills for the laws and journals of "the legislature of 1897, the bills for these not being in yet, ,but they will bring the total up to some thing like $50, 000?" making' tbe printing cost ' from $15,000 to $16,000 ' more than nnderthe old contract. : The job work will toe given, out here to BarneB- Bros.', for, the sake of .convenience, and as to the' larger work bids may be asked, for, If it Is 'thought5 best. When ; bids are asked for' the gap is opened to people who are not. union printers. '..Those who pay their printers only $6 a week-have a great advantage over those who pay union wages;.
