The Tariff Bill Senate Action in Washington January 18
The Senate debated a one cent sugar bounty amid long remarks by Reagan Butler Chandler and Spooner and a dispute on congressional power. A vote approved the bounty 33 to 14 with party lines, then session adjourned. In the House a fight over the Springer omnibus delayed progress on territorial bills until a comic quorum lapse allowed debate to resume and pension bills passed. Separate revenue totals reported for the period, and a Gainesville Florida boiler blast caused major damage and injuries.
