CONFEREES AGREE

MANY CONGRESSMAN GIVE IN
ADHESION TO REVISION.
WILL SLASH RAW MATERIALS
Change of Sentiment Comes in Sem
ate on Free Raw Materials.
Philippine Cigars Free.

Washington-The tariff bill that
is finally approved by President Taft
Will include among other things
these important provisions:
Free hides.
Free ore.
Free coal.
Free oil.
Lumber, probably $1.25 on rough,
with senate rates on finished. This
would be material reduction
throughout the lumber schedule.
For several days members of con-
gress have been going to the White
House, and not few of them came
away convinced that the President
was right in insisting on lower
duties. That change of sentiment
had taken place in the senate in the
matter of free iron ore and free oil
is matter of common gossip about
the capital Coal at 40 cents ton,
1t is declared, would prove satisfac-
tory to every section, except Wyom-
ing, which fears the importation OF
cheap Canadian coal.
Philippine Cigars Free.
The subcommittee that has been
considering the Philippines free
trade proposition decided to permit
the free admission of $50, 100000
cigars annually, as requested by the
President, instead of 100000 as
WOW be admitted under a senate
amendment adopted at the instance
of Senator LaFollette.
The tariff conferees settled the
question of giving the secretary of
the treasury authority to issue So
year 3 per cent bonds to cover the
entire cost of the Panama canal. The
effect of the bond provision ts to
repeal the limit of the bond authori-
cation of the Spooner act, although
not interfering with 2 per cent bonds
issued under that authority to the
amount of $S4, $50. The esti-
mated cost of the canal is $S75,2O1,-
