the consideration of the Tillman i
quor bill at this session. The iifor
mnatim yosterday sggested a diffor
ont result and the action today waF
a disappoinimont to Sonator Till
man. The arguments in support of
tho application for the rulo woro pro
sented by Sonator Tillman and Rop

guisod that the object of tho bill wal
to circumvent the Simonton decision
and porpotuato the exist,ing dispon.

tativo Latimor, however, disclaimled
any purposo of that sort. il( arguot
that tho gonoral prineiple of the bill

meant the portt,iation of the dis.

said, support, the hill.
In opposition, liopresolitative El

posod its abuses, assorted that it ww
a disgrace to the State and charged
that it was shamofully porvorted ant

(Spoeial to The State,)
Washington, July 19.-A poll of
the senato today indicates that one
vote may defoat tho tariff conference
report. When this phase of the sit
nation was called to Senator Till
mfan's attention today he said: "I
will voto for the bill it ny vote is
necessary to pas it."
When ho made this assertion a
day or two ago it was not thought
that one vote would decide the fato
of the bill, but that was Sonator Till
UMan's improssion at the tim. The
ol'ect of one vote is now apparent
and the South Carolina senttor's at
titudo has been the subject today of
much comment among Ropublicans
and Domocrats in both houses. Gov
ornor Taylor of Tennossoo has been
apprised of the situation and urgent
tolograms have been sont to hin 4o
lay, suggest,ing ti,o immediate ap
pointment, of Senator Harris' suc
cossor.
Senatoa Tillnmi's policy in voting
for the tariff bill is not supported by
the South Carolina members of the
houso. They doploro his course in
the matter and express great appro

anl factor in the passage of the tariff
bill anmd lhe gives at cons5on for supl
porting the b)ill a little less unique
than Senator Tilbinan's reason for
suppjorting the tariff bill. There is
some merit, he says, in the d1151)on

the factions in the D)emocratic party
