WILL PROBABLY AGREE.
Opinion of Senators on the Result
of the Conference.

WASHINGTON, July 81. Some Sem
ators are Of the opinion that the confer
ence committee will either agree on a re-
port within two or three days after the
sitting begins or within that time decide
to report another disagreement. The pre-
pOnderance of opinion is, however,
that there will! not be another report of
disagreement. In fact the Democratic
cOnferreeS assert that another disagree
ment means the defeat of the tariff bill.
The indications all point to a probable
ity that the sugar schedule will again be
the principal point of con ntioD. and that
but for the differences on this point an
agreement would be reached after a very
brief sitting. The Democratic members
of the conference went through the bill
very carefully during their former sitting
and agreed on vast number OF the items
in it, so they will not need to consider
these points again very fully. 1t is prob
able, however. that the Repub lican men,
bers of the committee will ask for an ex-
PLANTATION of the many changes, and this
action, OF course. would have the effect of
delaying the conference report.
Senator Blanchard has an entirely new
sugar proposition to submit to the confer
ence, but it Is not regarded as likely that
it will be agreed to.
