AN EMERGENCY LAW
MEASURE AGREED TO BY REPU5- LlcANs IN CONFERENCE
 PASSES THE HOUSE.
GOES TO SENATE FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION
Conference Report Win Be Taken Up by Senate and It's Consideration Acted Upon Until Disposed of- Vote in House Stood 166 for to 14o Against.

Washington, May 29.-An emergency currency law is assured. The cur rency question held It's place Wednes- day, as practically the only subject of the consideration at both ends of the capitol, and when both houses ad- journed the compromise bill which was drafted by the Republica nconferees had received the sanction of the house and had been presented to the senate, where 1t was announced it would be taken up for consideration Thursday and where it will also be passed when the vote Is reached.
 The day began with continuation of Tuesdays conference between the Republican representatives of the two houses. This resulted in com plete agreement which being later presented as a matter of form to the Democratic conferees, was shortly af- ter D. m, presented to the house. There 1t was taken up at three o'clock, discussed for one hour and passed by vote of 166 10 40. The house had no sooner recorded it's verdict in favor of the bill than it was hurried over to the senate. shortly before five o'clock with the announcement of the approval of the house.
 The conference report was read, and after the reading had been concluded MT. Aldrich announced that Thursday, after routine business, he would move to take up the report and continue it's consideration until it was disposed of.
 In reply to a question by MT. Gull Democratic conferees of the senate and house had not concurred in the conference report.
 The Democratic senators spent much of the day in informal conferences among themselves as to the proper course to pursue with reference to the bill, and decided upon a conference to be held Thursday at ten o'clock as the best means of affording an oppor- tunity for an exchange of views with cided to summon all absent Demo cratic senators to return.
 Practically the only point remaining unsettled is when the vote will be taken. No one doubts that the report will be adopted and the bill carried.
 The meeting of the Democrats Thursday will be conference and not a caucus and there will be no effort to bind the participants.
