The two Republican conferees for the
House Representatives Hepburn ana
Sherman, will stand out for non-concur-
renee while the Democrat, Representative
Richardson, of Alabama, will favor con-
currence in the Senate amendment. The
House Republicans backed by the lead
ers object to the Senate amendments
mainly because they embrace the prin-
cipal features to which the House Re-
publicans objected In the Davey Dill,
the measure framed as representing the
position of the minority. One of the
main bones of contention which is con-
talned In the bill as 1t came from thu
Senate and which the House Republi-
cans kept out Of the Hepburn bill, was
the clause requiring courts Issuing a
restraining order to give notice ana

To know where millions of dollars

And this has been done in the in

wreck was left alone until 1892, when
Oliver Pelky devised a diving suit
strengthened with metal rings to sup
port the rubber against the water
pressure, lie went down to the
wreck once, but on his second de-
scent his suit collapsed, and he was
hauled up dead A few years later

$1,000 before he donned his armor
and to give him one.half Of the net

refused The offer.
Enos b. Petrie, of Brooklyn, who I
