RESENTS INSULT. president Wilson Sorry Tolls Debate Has Degenerated. WASHINGTON, March 31. - On the eve of the vote in the House of Representatives on t' repeal of the. American toll exemption in the Pane- tta Canal, Congress yesterday was completely absorbed in tbe contro- versy, verbal artillery thundering throughout the day in both House and Senate. While opposing forces were clash- ing in oratorical flights at the capi- tol, President Wilson took occasion to discuss the all -engrossing situation with callers, expressing keen regret that what had promised to be a dig- nified contest over principles had de- generated into a fight upon the ad- ministration. While on the subject, President Wilson characterized as "a crowning insult of a number of in- sults". in the debate, the declaration 'of Representative Knowland of Cali- fornia, that the administration had made a deal to repeal the toll exemp- tion with Sir William Terrill, secre- tary of Sir Edward Grey, British Sec- retary for Foreign Affairs. Little' doubt as to the result of the vote on ,the bill is entertained by any one, •the majority or the repeal be- ing variously estimated at from 30 to i 5 votes.
