Republican T.rin nIAnager. Expect Ad-
jOurnment In This Month.
Washington, June 26.-The Republican
tariff managers are very hopeful Of being
aole to complete the consideration Of the
tariff in the senate by next Wednesday,
a result which would bring the end in the
session within the present month. They
are led to this conclusion because the Re-
publicans have adjusted most Of their diff
ferences and see their way clear to the
settlement Of others. The Democratic
leaders do not concede the possibility OF
so early a conclusion. They generally
place it a week further, on or about the
7th or 9Th Of July, but admit that the end
may come by Saturday Of next week.
OF the problems still unsolved by the
Republicans. lead ore, coal. iron ore, gyp-
sum- taIlow and few chemicals are CIV
ing the most trouble but there is no doubt
Of an adjustment on all Of these which
will hold the full party vote. The dispo-
sition is to hold to the rates at present
fixed on lead and iron ore. with the inten-
ton Of making changes in conference.
The rate on Canadian coal will probably
be advanced to 81 cents per long ton.
The advocates Of high rate on .ead
ore are apparently prepared to meet
their opponents half way in conference
and accept a rate Of ~ cents.
The finance committee has practically
decided to abandon the tax on bank
checks. which at one time was so favor
ably considered, and also the increase of
a cents barrel in the beer tax, and the
change In the tobacco tax.
There is some difficulty in the judiciary
committee in agreeing upon the form Of
an antitrust amendment. but all the
probabilities point to the Incorporation of
the Pettus proposition. directed specific
ally at the Sugar Trust. and Of very lit
tie more. 1t Is expected that the recip-
lrocity amendment will be ready for pres
enta,ion by next Tuesday. The present

There probably will be objection TO the
retention Of the house provision For the
continuance Of the Hawaiian reciprocity
agreement on sugar, but the finance
committee will favor such an arrange
ment and the probabilities are that the
Republicans vii supper; ii solidly, pend
ing action upon the annexation treaty.
The action of the committee in withdraw
ing its amendments to the sugar sched-
ule probably would have the effect OF
leaving the provision in force without a
further effort TO tina; end. but there Is no
probability that some one will not OFFER
an amendment that will open up the en-
tire question.
The question Of the duty on tea Is
again receiving the attention Of the CON-
sni,,ee. This was practically abandoned
al one time but since :, has been found

go the tax on checks 1: Is thought that
