the leaders uf the American Railway

Milwaukee Sentinel: The Wash
ington correspondent of the Chica-
90 Record Qnd.), who is generally
well informed, says that he was told
by member Of the conference com.
mittee that the question about the
sugar schedule had been settled.
This was accomplished, he said, by
changing the phraseology OF the
senate bill so that the house repre-.
sentatiyes might be able 10 assert
that they were voting for something
different from the senate bill. The
change, however, was in form rather
than substance, 80 that the sugar
trust would still be cared for. The
only paragraph still in dispute, he
said, twas the duty on coal, and the
president was very determined not
10 let the house yield that, not only
because he wants coal on the free
list as a general proposition, and
because he has pledged himself to
his friends in the Novia Scotia syn,
dictate to do all he can to place IL
there, but he is exceedingly vindic-
tive toward Senator German and
wants to punish him for his speech
