Washington, July 24-All the dis.
puted tariff schedules are in the pot
with the conferees hoping TO fetch
out a set today that will pass muster.
When they adjourned last night, they
had more progress toward what they
termed compromise" on cottons,
Senator Aldrich had agreed to certain
reductions on the eoarser grades to
the Dingley rates. 1t was understood
however, that the senate increases for
most of the schedule would be re-
tained.
The conferees were still talking %
7is per cent on hides, though one or
two of them insisted that the final
outcome would be free hides. They

the iron ore people with a duty Of
fifteen cents ton or to let It In free
Coal was scheduled for perhaps forty
five cents a ton and lumber $1.25 a

Earle Jones. Of Catale fell under the

he was reported to be resting very

The accident occurred when Jones

asked.
You will learn my opinion when
the report is made, has been In ef.
feet his answer
House revisionists have very little
hope that Payne will make a deter.
mined fight-in fact, he has let them
know that he would not consider it
his duty to hold out for the full
house program.
Would the house defeat the bin if
the president should let it be known
that he desired its defeat?" Repre-
sentative Perkins of New York was
asked yesterday afternoon.
Without doubt the bill would be
beaten, he replied
"Then what?"
"It would be sent back TO conference
and better bin would come back"
But standpat senators have said
they would prefer to beat downward
revision bill and let the Dingley law
stand"
yes" Perkins answered, but that
isn't the alternative. The Dingley law
won't stand even If this bill should
be beaten. A wave Of popular senti
ment would sweep over the country
that would force more radical revision
from the next session Of congress i
the senate should block 1t then ther,
would be another congress that woulC
revise downward. There will be ne
ten years more Of peace under the
Dingley law. If they know what's
good for them they will accept a mod
