in Saratoga.
Murphy Will Issue a Call to Meet a
Week from Tuesday.

SARATOGA, n Y, July 2S.--Nether
Senator Murphy nor Lieut.. Gov. Shee-
han has put in an appearance yet.
They are expected here to-day. Senator
Murphy, on his arrival, will issue a call
for the Democratic State Committee to
meet in Saratoga. probably a week from
next Tuesday. Then the real pow-wow
will take place.
1t was intended to hold formal con-
ference this week, but the leaders for
some reason have persistently denied 1t.
They will get together Informally to-
day If Senator Murphy arrives.
Mayor Gilroy and Richard Croker have
stuck closer to each other than brothers.
They sat talking together al, last even
ing on the veranda of the Grand Union,
and this morning they were up at sun
rise and drove out to the race track
to watch Mr.. Croker's horses do trial
work.

TARIFF CONFERENCE AGAIN.
Democratic Members Prompt in
Resuming Their Sessions
Chairman Wilson Called for a Con-
sultation at the White House.

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-The Demo-
cratic members OF the Conference Com
mittee on the Tariff bill were prompt in
re Stunning their sessions to-day. The
meeting was held in the room Of the
Senate Committee on Interstate Com
merce, with all the members present.
except Chairman Voorhees,, who was abb
sent on account Of illness.
From the best information obtainabie
the dications are that there will be
numerous changes In the les important
schedules of the bill. These were agreed
upon tentatively in the former confer
ence.
1t is believed that there will be no ma
terial changes in the metal schedule
When the former conference broke up
the House members were disposed to
hold out st!!fiy for considerable conces-
sions on cutlery and steel rails. The
prospects now are that the rates on
rails will be lowered somewhat, but that
the cutlery rate will not be changed.
Chairman Wilson arrived from West
Virginia this morning. and within
short time received a message from
the Executive Mansion requesting his
presence there. Mr.. Wilson was one
House, and he was with the President
until IL was necessary to go TO the
Capitol for the opening Of the second
tariffconference.
Chairman Wilson saw several members
Of the House during the early part OF the
day, and while ne avoided direct COM
initial on the issue between the House
and the Senate. these members got the
impression In a general way that MT
Wilson regarded the situation as h,
tremeiy precarious and as presenting a
choice between the Senate BILL some
what modified. and continuance OF the
Mckinley law. and that he regarded the
former as the lesser evil.
Members % fthe House, in speaking OF
accepting the Senate bill, use the words
as meaning coal; iron and sugar as

three items, House members feel that

schedules on sugar, iron and coal.
