Feared That the Revenue Reduction

Washington, Feb. 2O.-The status of

bers of the house, as the two sides are
apparently deadlocked in conference,
with no present indication that either
Will yield. There is some talk of 2
conference or caucus of Republican
members of the ways and means COM
mlttee to decide upon a line of action.
and before the bill is allowed to fail
some such course will be adopted.
The friends of the bill are sanguine
that If it gets before the house again
a motion to concur with the senate
will receive united support on the
Democratic side and such scattering
support on the Republican side that
1t will prevail. The opponents of the
Dill also realize that this may occur
and for that reason there is less be.
lief that the bill will fail, although it's
condition is looked upon as rather
precarious.
