session in the room of the committee on
ways and means. Mr.. Breckenridge of
Arkansas. who has been advising with
the conferees, says that another meeting
with the Senate conferees will not be .neces
sary, and that the House conferces can
bring in report receding from the diSa=
agreement to the Senate amendments and
concurring in them, which will pass the
bill

managers of the House to finish up every
thing today. The committee on rules was
to present a special order to carry out the
mandate of the caucus. The intention is
to pass the tariff bill. and then will follow
the other bills named in the caucus resolu-
ton. These bills have all been prepared,

done unless they can secure reasonable
