WASHINGTON, july ~. Speaker
Crisp, who 10 back in the house alter
four days aLsence, says there viii be no
report from the tariff conference COM
nnttee during the day. 1t. cannot be
learned that any de finite plan of action
has been outlined Ly ,he house Demo
cratic leaders. yet it is evidently their
impression that it might prove inexpe-
dent to carry ont the plsn OF reporting
total disagreement, and asking Tor
Instructions. It was pointed out that
such report would only emphasize
the character OF the difference and that
should the senate and house instruct
their conferees TO stand by their respec-
tive positions. it would precipitase
deadlock. The sdvi,e OF the house
leaders was therefore in line with that
which judge some times gives to y
disagreeing jury t
To Co Back and Try Again.
II Is believed also that one Of the re.
suits Of the speakers return was to
stiffen the determination Of the house
conterees, aud to keep the contest In
conference. 1t was stated, however,
that with the conferees in session, the
situation might change at any moment
and one OF Mr.. Crisp's closest advisers
said the report would probably come In
the morning.
Ii 10 reported that a difference exists
as to the scope of the report Of disagree
ment. The house conferees desire to
make partial report of such agree.

structions ON the items subject to dis

stood for an agreement in toto or dis

The report will ie disagreement in
toto. It will 6e very brief and will not

the senate and house may have come
together on. The report is expected to
be the fist business taken mp by the
house when it as embles at noon. This,
haof course, cannot b. made certain until
the tRepntllcan c0nlerees give their as

Beyond tie point OF making the brief
report Of disagreement in toto the con-
ferees profess not 10 know what the
| house Or senate will do. One of the
house contefees said that the three items
OF isngar, iron ore and coal. were the
| points that had forced the total dis
agreement. Woolens, cottons, lead ore
and some other things had Leen open to
difference. yet it was hoped that these
could have been reconciled, said the
conferee, ii sugar, coal and iron had
