agreement on other matters. The house
confereSs feel that they are entitled to
some radical concessions. and the sen-
stors do not seem disposed to yield.
The latter say that 1t was with the ut
most difficulty that they prepared a
bill which would command sutfi-
cient votes to pass the
senate and that many changes would
perhaps mean danger to the final adop-
tion of the measure. Today more than
heretofore the house members have run
against the tenacity OF the senate tol
the senate bill, and the adjournment in
Dictated that the stubOOrnne OH both
sides was keenly felt. The insistence
of the senate Is not alone on the three
large questions, sugar, coal and iron,
but today differences have been devel-
oped in other lines. The conferees of
tine two houses are almost deadlocked
on the metal. cotton and WOODEN sched-
ules. The changes In the classlfications
of wool and cotton schedules is one of
the contentious and one which cannot
be easily settled. The senators
say they represent the view
of their party associates on thts
questions and are not disposed to YIELD.
The house members are tenacious for
the house bill OH wOOlens, and claim
that this schedule was Que OF the most
important as Well as most satisfactory
in the Wilson bill, and that they cannot
accept the increases. The subject of
specific and ad valorem rates may not
cause much trouble, as members of both
houses agree that such differences will
not be worth serious disagreements if
the committee can get together on other
and more important matters. These
changes from ad valorem to specific
duties, the house confereeS find. are not
so Numerous as they supposed and are
largely III the chemical schedule. 1t is
understood that for this reason there
are few disagreements over the first
schedule, and that many of the less
important schedules can now he ar
ranged. Some of the members of the
conference were constrained when the
meeting adjourned last night to say that
it might be Two weeks before they
would get through. Efforts are being
made to reach an agreement OH all
points, so that no article shall be re-
ported separately with the statement
that upon these subjects the conferees
disagree and ask tor further instruc-
tons and consideration. The men who
are more especially interested in the
keystone articles of disagreement are
afraid that such report will be made.
The confereeS also feel that bill which
the eight Democrats eau agree upon is
more liable to immediate adoption than
If disputed points are left for further
consideration.
