Washington January 23 Democrats prepare a plan to fight the Senate tariff measure. Senate clerks failed to finish the substitute for the Mills tariff bill today and expect it to reach the House tomorrow. In the House, Speaker Carlisle would refer it to Ways and Means pro forma unless objections arise. Democrats consider three options: let it die in committee, send it back to the calendar to die, or push it to conference. A caucus may be held to decide.
