Revenue bill delays and political maneuvering in senate
The article reports on the slow movement of the war revenue reduction bill in the Senate Finance Committee led by Aldrich, with efforts to keep discussion quiet and to push the measure as a calendar item.

It also covers senior court connections and a career shift impacting Porto Rico, plus Governor Mount of Indiana dying suddenly after a political week.
