He put In at Falmouth, England. and
there secured bills OF health both from

Cs6scial to Tn. Evening World,

WASHINGTON, Aug. l0--The tariff
situation was further complicated to-
day by the presentation in the Senate
of resolution, fathered by Senator
Hill and supported by Senator Aldrich,
calling on the conferrees to make a re-
IS port as to what they were doing. This
= WAS considered as in the nature Of a
movement towards taking the bill away
from the conferrees, and 1t led not only
ITO heated debate In the Senate, but
'Ito lively discussion outside.
II AS the matter stands now two opn-
Ions are advanced. On the one hand, II
Is predicted that a disagreement will be
reported from the conference tomorrow.
4 Again. 1t Is declared that the Democratic
I conferrees will SIMPLY refrain from fur
NtSer proceedings until the fate of the
erdV -Aldrich resolution Is decided In the
Ultimate. That resolution It may be ex-
~ \lned went over until to morrow
slon pr the rules.
%AVe unexpected turn Of affairs In the
Ate brought out much comment from
Etembers of the House, and with few
exceptions 1t was favorable to the move
Urged by Senators Hill and Aldrioh.
'everal leading members said they
;ould urge similar resolutions in the
ouse, II the rules would permit. They
tr,fieved, however. that unanimous con-
'seht would be required and this could
not be hoped for.
Another House conferree said at the
close of the exciting Senate debate
e thet II Senators were anxious to kill
q tn Tariff bill. they had chosen the right
cSprse In supporting the Hill resolution.
Iuring the beginning of the con-
lei nee to-day there was an inter-
change Of suggestions, based upon the
offer made by the Senate conferrees,
last evening, to accept free sugar. as
. ,,groyided In the House bill, the senate
: ss3ill. on other Items. to be accepted by
the House.
IT did not take the conferrees long to
- find that they could come to no agree
ment on this basis. and the first House
member to make his appearance said
so.
IA Within half an hour after the confer
ence began, the Senate conferrees left
the room and met Senator German in
the room Of the Committee on Appro-
priations. Other conservative Senators
were sent for and 1t was said that a
point had been reached where decision
zone way or another must be had.
III was said that the Senate conferrees
left the conference room feeling that no
other course but a disagreement was
possible.
