Debate surfaced as Aldrich reported the measure for the finance committee, Borah objected to immediate consideration, and cotton bagging was placed on the free list with a house rate of three tenths of a cent per pound on cotton ties.

A zinc in pigs duty was set at one and a half cents per pound, up from one cent in the house bill.
