without much trouble. MIR DmSley has

the creekery, glass, and silk schedules: the
advances madein many OF tie items In the
chemical schedule, notably ON borax; the
recla sSif 3ca uons in many important sched-
ules. and, finally, the advance made in the
duty given the sugar trust. Speaker Reed
has said in private conversation that the
House will never yield on this schedule,
aid the oonferees will understand this
before they are appointed. 1t is an open
secret In the Senate that the House
rate on sugar is To be finally accepted
The impression III some quarters that the

Salisbury Explains the Delay IN
the Peace Negotia tioEs.

the Peace Negotiations.
London. July 6-In the House of Lords
today Lord Salisbury, iii reply to ques-
tion by Lord Conemare, said that the delay
in the conclusion of peace negotiations
between Turkey and Greece was entirely
attributable to the Porte. He did not
think that there was any delay as far
as the powers were concerned, as they
had ag1eed upon every point hitherto
There had been no definite reply on the
part of the Porte upon any point and
the question when a solution would be ar
rived at was a matter of prophecy rather
than anything else.
There is disposition in the Hobbies of
parliament to attach the gravest i'm
poftance to Lord Salisbury's statement
In regard to the delay in the conclusion
OF peace negotiations between Turkey
and Greece being entirely attributable
to the Porte The consensus Of opinion
indicates that the governments are CON
WINGED that threat to use force against
Turkey is inevitable. A section OF the
Liberals are in favor OF raising a debate
on the matter.

Senator Jones, of Arkansas, the man
ager OF the tariff bill on the part of the
Democrats, is too Did a hand at the game
of politics to be caught by any political
play, So re took every pains yesterday
afternoon TO see that there should be no
deviation on the part OF the Republicans
from the action directed to be taken,
as he was informed by the Republican
caucus, on the subject OF the proposed
bounty on beet sugar. When AR Allison
told him that the Republicans had decided
not to support the amendment Mr.. Jones
said that immediately upon the conclusion
Of MI Aliens remarks on his amen dnent
he should expect some one representing
the Republican members of the Finance
Comuittee TO make a motion to table the
amendment lie very frankly told Mr..
Allison that the vote could not be taken
on the amendment direct
Mean vhile he prepared his forces. Sev-
eral Democrats were ready TO speak had
sny other policy been pursued and had
the Republicans tried to take the vote on
the amendment direct a debate would have
be gun the end OF Which no one could
have foreseen The only fair way for
the Republicans to carry cut what was
purported to be their caucus agreement
was as Mr.. Jones indicated. A direct
vote on the amendment might nave carried
it despite the caucus action, and this was
the contingency Mr. Jones did not pro-
pose to confront. The motion TO table
was made by Mr.. Allison himself, and
the vote cast was the most one-sided
since the debate began.
