WASHINGTON, July A!-Demo-
Gratis of the Senate intend to hold a
conference at three o'clock. 1t will
be a caucus, as that would mean
that all senators should be invited,
and it is decided that Senator Hill
should not participate A plan
will be to invite senators who
voted for the tariff bill to the con-
ference. 1t will mean also that
there will be nothing binding upon
them and that general consulta-
ton may take place with an inter-
change of views with hope of reach
ing some agreement.
As soon as the Senate met today
Senator Faulkner went about the
Democratic side notifying the DEM
ocrats of the conference today.
When the members Of the steer
ing committee were asked as to no
notification being given to Senator
Hill, they replied: "This is con:
ference Of friends Of the tariff bill
and only Senators friendly to the
measure will be asked to attend"

Mrs. Leland Stanford, by her at
torneys, Wilson & Wilson, has no.
titled the government, through
United States District Attorney
Charles A. Carter, that its claims
for 100000 against the estate
of the late Senator Stanford
have been rejected. This means
that Mrs. Stanford considers
the demand of the government un-
Just and without foundation, and
it will be paid, if ever, only at the
end Of long litigation. The district
attorney has notified the govern
ment and takes no action, pending
further instructions.
