Washington, May 20. The tariff bill

will be passed by the beginning of the
fiscal year.
Making the new tariff is going en se
slowly and faces such difficulties that
there is some doubt whether a law can
be get through before election. Sena

discontent with the machlne which the
elections in Pennsylvania and Indiana
have revealed. It will be Impossible te

A geed many members of both houses
would like te drop tariff roeking until
after election, but they are afraid te

was told that Pinchot was nt hand he
asked te talk le the Ferester. Pinchot
