WAsnISGroN, D. O., July T.-The
prospects Of an agreement on the tariff
were much improved to-day. For tho
first timo in many days the house Dom.
ocratic contereos came from the meet
ing with the abatement that previous
irreconcilable differences wero in
progress Of amieable adjustment. With
much satisfaction the house nemberA
stated to their associates that tho soma
tors had shown disposition for the
first timo 70 meet the house half way.
AS to when full agreement could be
perfected there was some difference OF
opinion. Ono house conferee said 1t
would probably be this week. Another
thought it would bo "soon."
Chairman Wilson would not oven ad-
nit that the understanding had gone
fur enough 10 warrant the prediction OF
speedy report. He said, However,
that tho conference had at lett done
business and made progress to-day,
which was moro than could have been

the conference was as far from an agree
ment as II had been. While there was
this conflict among those thoroughly
informed OF tho inside workings OF the
conference, tho general bolief prevailed
that the hopcfulness OF tho house con-
fereus had some substantial foundation.
Ona Of the conferees said that while
no final agreement had boon mado on
iron, coal and sugar, yot sufficient had
boon developed in conference to show
that an agrc0mcnt could be reached on
those three most important items,
which would bc' acceptable to the senate
and house conferees, and to tho house

Washington, May Ex-senator Hill
of New York, made his speech today
attacking the proposed duty of ga
cent per pound on lead ore and lead
silver bearing ore, and general ar
raigning of his colleagues for their re-
fusal to stand by the Democratic doc
trine of free raw materials
The bill, he said was not satisfac-
tory to other Democrats on this side of
the chamber, and If the senator from
Maryland (Gorman) the other day in
tended to infer that there was Demo-
cratic unity on this bill he had exceed
ed his authority. The bill would not be
satisfactory to him so long as it con-
tained one remnant of populistic in
come tax. Still, he thought it the duty
of Democrats not to defeat 1t, but to
modify and pass 1t. Hill proceeded to
explain that he had voted against Tell
.er's motion to table the bill because he
did not desire to kill the measure before
it was fully considered and an honest
effort had been made to modify 1t. He
had voted the other day to place iron
ore on the free list. His vote stood
solitary and alone, so far as Democratic
votes were concerned. He did not an
ticipate that the motion he now made
would be carried, but 1t ought not to re-
quire any argument to convince the
senate that lead ore should go on the
free list. The Democratic party stood
pledged to it. Lead ore was a raw ma
terial, and the party was committed TO
free raw materials
The motion was defeated by yeas

Judge Hall Says tt Has a SocialistiC
Government,

Denver, Col, May 26.-The Raven
Gold Mining Company, of Cripple Creek
incorporated under the laws of West
Virginia, applied to Judge Hall, of the
United States district court, today for
an injunction to restrain strikers from
interfering with it's property and en-
ployes. The court held that it is not in
the power of the federal courts to pro-
tect the property of citizens of another
state, and that by the constitution the
county and state police power alone
rests with the state authorities. In
making this decision the court added:
"If the government of this state has
fallen into the hands of socialists, which
is true, or of imbeciles, which is also
probably true. 1t is most unfortunate
for, the state, but it cannot be held as o
reason for this court to exercise police
power"

readiness for a call to arms. A new
conflict at Cripple Creek today is feared.

Cripple Creek, Col, May 26.-Eyery
known newspaper representative has
been ordered away from Battle Noun
tain and Bull Hill, and told not to re-
turn again at the peril of their lives.
The strikers seized IL train at Victor
about midnight and proceeded down the
Florence and Cripple Creek railroad to
Wilbur, where the Denver deputies were
in camp. At 4 a. m. a battle occurred
between the strikers and the outposts
of the deputies, in which George Crow
ley, a miner, was killed. Several miners
and three deputies were wounded. The
particulars are hard to obtain, as the
wires have been cut. A non-union miner
was shot dead in saloon at Victor this
morning.
The force that attacked the deputies
numbered 300. At the latest reports the
Denver deputies were still at Wilbur,
awaiting the arrival of reinforcements,
and expected to leave Colorado Springs
today. The names of the wounded have
not been learned. So far as known none
of the deputies were killed.
1t is now positively known that no
lives were lost by the blowing up Of the
Strong shaft house yesterday.
1t is reported that Attorney c. s..
Thomas, of Denver, on behalf of the
mine owners, is trying to have United
States troops sent to the camp.
