Philippine tariff bill sails through Senate on party vote
The Philippine tariff bill passed the Senate by 46 to 26 in a strict party vote after eight hours of debate. Senators Tillman and McLaurin were barred from voting amid contempt charges. A contention over their right to vote followed lengthy discussion, while amendments on sedition laws and duty rates drew intense partisan clash. The measure also affects duties for Philippine imports and navigation law exemptions through 1904. Prince Henry’s visit loomed as galleries filled.
