ConfereeS at Loggerheads Over
This Important Schedule
ALDRICH and PAYNE CLASH
ADVOCATES OF PROTECTED
HIDES EXPECTED TO BEAR
DOWN UPON TAFT FOR REDuc-
TloN ON BOOTS AND OTHER
LEATHER GOODS.

washington, July 26.--In both the
senate and the house the anti-free
hide element is making active prepar-
ations for most vigorous resistance
to any report from the tariff confer
ence committee looking to taking the
duty off hides. Northwestern senator's
and members Of the house were at the
capitol early today and from the mo-
ment of their arrival, all of them were
busily engaged in conferences among
themselves. The 'insurgent" members
of the house as the anti-raw material
fighters are coming to be called, decid-
ed upon holding a meeting which was
called for IL O'Clock.
The senators who are making fight
along the same lines concluded to per-
feet their plans by means of individ-
ual conferences. Most active among
the workers in the senate were Sena-
tors Clark and Warren of Wyoming,
Carter of Montana, Borah OF Idaho,
and Shoot of Utah.
Want Leather Goods Free.
In case the, conferences bring in a.
free hide report the opposition will re-
sort to adopting a resolution of au-
thorixation to the conference commit
tee to place all kinds of leather and
all leather goods on the free list. This
plan will not be resorted to because
it is preferred to make these articles
free, but because success is regarded
as more probable If this policy Is fol-
lowed than If an attempt should be
made to instruct the committee to
place a duty on hides.
BY the former course, the OPP
position count on obtaining all
but one Of the democratic votes
in the senate, and all but
four OF the democratic votes in the
house. While the democrats would not
directly help the hide men by voting
to put a higher duty on hides, the dem
ocrats would be willing to force all the
duty off shoes. The hide men think
that rather than accept free leather
and free shoes, the manufacturers and
those conferees who represent the man
ufacturers' views would be willing to
concede duty on hides. The fighting
will be close in both houses.
In the senate there are sixty-on
and thirty one democrats.
Senator McEnery OF the democratic
column will vote with the republicans
for protection. The other thirty demo-
Gratis are counted upon as favorable to
free leather. With these thirty votes
as a starter, IL would be necessary to

habits of Miss Bosechek, the club con-
sisted of six girls, four young men and
man and his wife. Most of them are
employed in cloak factories.

men and women called at the Rosechek
home to obtain books and newspaper

room and which she would not let
her parents see. The girl is known to
have met those young people in meet
ings held at various places. The
group is known to have read morbid
literature and discussed death as the
only relief for their woes.

her by lot as the first to commit sui
