PUBLIC UTILITIES CHANGES
 GROWING LEES AND LESS.
If Any Bill Passes 1t Will Be the
 Barnum Bill.

Hartford, July 29.--The chances of any public utilities commission legis- lation passing at tine present session are growing less and less. If any bill passes, it will be tn E Barnum bill, but that this measure, kven in an amend ed form, will pass the house, is, very doubtful. Nothing more radical will pass the senate under any conditions and the likelihood of an agreement be- tween the two hoiises is disappearing, if it ever existed.
 The feeling of, the senate is that there is no publbci demand for any bill at all at this tifnie and that this talk of there being an obligation on the part of the republican party to pass one amounts to- very little. Only one or two business : mems associations with active press agents are making any stir whatev er in favor of a com mission of any kind and they don't know what thew want. On the other hand, those wffo favor a commission In the house Ire in favor of the mi nority bill frolh the special commit tee, but not ini its entirey; they want to amend 1t and nearly every man has dlHerentr an hendment he wishes to tack on.
 It Is certaif that the senate will agree with the house on nothing ex- cept the Barn hm bill just as it is, and it is almost certain that what the house passesi will be a hodge-podge which looks I lore like the minority bill than the otner, in which case there can be no Agreement between the houses. UnFier these conditions there are many ms smbers who have come to the point W here they believe thai if is better to- let the whole matter drop than to ask hen to vote for something of which theS do not wholly approve A motion toll indefinitely postpone in the house luld get many votes.

enoe committee. How do know?" re- spoi1ded the speaker.
 His reply, however, was garnished with certain emphatic expressions which gave it considerable weight The speaker wore the unmistakeable air of man who had capitulated before a superior force.
 There was no opportunity to com p,iomise on gloves. The president said tile rates must not be advanced be- yOnd the figures named by the senate biRl. which are the same as the existing duties except for the fact that 'sehma- setn gloves were reduced by the senate from $1.75 a dozen to SIPS. z.
 Some Concessions onjLumber.
 On lumber some concessions were fnadeg in spite of the fact that 1the presidents instructions were complied with to the letter. Rough lumber was made dutiable at SIPS per thousand feet; finished on one side, $1.T5S finish ed on two sides or one side planed and tongued and groved, $2.15: finished on three sides, $2.52 1-2, and finished on -four sides $2.90.
 To consiliate Senators Piles and Jones, the conferees adopted the sem ate rate of 50 cents a. thousand on shingles instead of the. house rate of 30 cents.
 Rate on Pig Lead in Bars Restored.
 In order to obtain the support of Senator Hepburn. the industries of whose state had been assailed through the abolition of the duty on hides, the reduction in the duty on lumber and the, reduction in the dlfferential on pig lead in bars, the latter schedule was reconsldered. The senate fixed the rate on pig: lead at 2 1-S cents per pound, but this was reduced in conference to cents. In view of the dissatisfaction of the Idaho senators, this subject was reopened today and rate of Is cents pound on pig lead in bars was restored.
 Concession to the Cattle Industry.
 In view of the action of the con. ferees in putting hides on the free list, a concession also was made to tfle cattle industry today by taking tallcJw off the free list, where it had been placed by the conferees. and restoring 1t to the dutiable list Tallow had Deen put on the free list by the house. but the action of the conferees today makes it dutiable at 1-2 cent per pound. The Rates on Hosiery.
 The rates on. hosiery were fk ked by increases of about 20 per ttent. in grades. valued at s1, s1.59 arid g a dozen pairs This is an iipcre ase over from the advances made biy 4zlle house On all other values of hosielryi the Ding, ley rate, which had been re- enacted by the senate. were retained < When their session adjovlr ned tonight 1t was announced that the experts had proceeded far enough to show~that the new bill will be an incresue Of from i to 8 per. cent. over the all valorems of the Dingley law.
