.CUMMINS TO TALK
TARIFF WITH TAFT
INVITED TO BREAKFAST WITH
PRESIDENT TO SPEAK FOR
INSURGENTS.
MUCH TlNKERINe DONE BUT
NOTHING OF SIGNIFICANCE
IN CONFERENCE.

Washington, July 22- Better prog.
ress was made today by the tar.i con-
ferees than on ansther day since the
real troubles we've reached. No trace
of the i'll feeling manifested Monday
was apparent in the proceedings YES.
terday After a discussion of raw ma
terials early today the schedules were
taken up and many paragraphs
settled without renewal of hostilties.
Before the schedules were taken up
the conferees discussed briefly what
reporl could be made at the confer.
enee last night on the subjects Of
coal, lumber. hides, oil and iron ore
but no effort was made to fix the rates
on any of these articles. 1t was evident
that the senate and house conferees
were still far apart. Several subjects
passed over in former conferences
were taken up. The entire zinc sched-
nie was adjusted. Spelter was made
dutiable at 1873 cents per pound. a re
duction from the senate rate OF ~
cents and an increase from the house
rate of one cent. All the senate differ
entails were adopted. Zinc in sheets
will be dutiable at ia cents, and
sheets coated or plated with nickel or
other metal at two cents. The house
rate Of one cent for old and worn out
zinc, fit only to be remanufactured.
was adopted.
The senate eonferees receded from
their amendment doubling the house
rate of cents a pound on salicylic
acid.
The lead schedule and products of
lead were disposed of. The senate
and house rates on lead ore were iden-
teal, the duty being one and one half
cents a pound, The house made pig
lead dutiable at the same rate and the
senate provided specifically for lead
dross, lead bullion, and pig lead at
is cen,s pound. This rate was re.
duced by the eonferees to two cents,
and as a result one-eighth of a cent
was removed from the senate rat IS on
all paint derivatives. This settled
one of the most troublesome questions
in the bill
Lemons will pay duty of IL cents
pound, the senate RAE. an increase
of one quarter of cent over the
house rate and half a cent over the
Dipgley rate. The window glass
schedule was settled by slightly reduc
ing the house rates, which were higher
than the senate rates on the CHEAP
grades in all sizes.
The progressive republican senators
decided at a meeting yesterday, to is
sue statement outlining their posi-
ton on downward revision. Mr.. Cum
Minis has been invited to take break
fast with Mr.. Taft today to discuss the
attitude of the insurgents and there
fore it was decided to withhold the
tatement until today.
There was also a meeting Of about
twenty "anti-free raw material" mem
bers of the house. The leaders
claimed that 80 members had signified
their intention of standing together fol
duties on hides, coal. iron ore. oil and
for a higher rate on lumber than the
house provided They also claimed
that representatives who opposed the
corporation tax provision would swell
this number 10 As.

TAFT'S DINNER VOID
OF POSITIVE RESULTS

Washington, July 22.--The white
house dinner and conference, at which
the tariff conferees and the presidents
closest advisors were brought together
last night, in an effort to settle the
differences regarding the tariff bill
ended at 1880, with the disputes over
raw materials no nearer adjustment
than they we're before the dinner.
Only one question was determined
beyond appeal, and that was that the
conferees will have to settle their
own differences. Pains were taken,
however, to convey the impression
that this decision was not indicative
Of any absence of appreciation of the
presidents efforts. 1t merely con-
frIned what the elder statesmen" had
asserted from the frst-that, tariff
making is trading, and the shrewdest
dealer and the strongest section is
bound to get the best of the argu-
ment
Briefly stated, the representatives Of
house and senate practicallv admitted
thar they were unable to forecast the
outcome Alr. Aldrich spoke for the
