The Tariff Bill Sent to a Con- ference Committee.

The Speaker Expected to Announce the Committee This Afternoon.

Chinese Unlawfully fin This Country

 MT. Kennedy's Speech Called Up Again.
 1t is Generally Believed that the Money
 StrIngency is Over.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-The House received the Tariff biN with Senate amendments from the Ways and Means Committes. and after two hours dis cussion voted to non-concur in the Senate amendments and send the bill to conference.
 No little speculation is being in- dulged in as to who will be the Honse conferees upon the Tariff bill. It is expected that Speaker Reed will an nounce the appointments this after noon. It is probable that the list will include Messrs. Mckinley. Burrows or Dingley, Payne, of New York, and Near, of Iowa, Republicans, and MeSsrS. Mills, McMillin and Flower, Democrats.
 Inasmuch as the House committee has reported in favor of extending to February the time when duties may be paid upon goods imported previous to the passage of the bill, iS is antici- pated that the House conferees will insist upon this provision. The Sena- tors, too, are expected to concur.
 The very strong probability that the Senate conferees will concur with the House in the amendment extending to February 1 the time within which goods imported before the enactment of the law may be taken from bond ct the present rate will, in the opinion of the Treasury officials, do much toward quieting the furry in the New York money market.
