HOUSE WINS FREE HIDES
But Has to Come to Senate Terms on
Other Articles

Washington, July 28.-From the
best information obtainable 1t APP
pears that the House has won it's bat
tie for free hides and oil and increas-
ed rates on gloves Ind hosiery IN re-
turn for a surrender to the Senate on
lumber, coal, iron ore and print paper.
For nearly week the question OF
putting hides on the free list or i'm
posing a nominal duty upon them has
been before the conference committee.
Not even a nominal duty proved &C
ceptable to Representative Payne,
whose position was strengthened by
the support of President Taft and the
Senate was compelled to yield in spite
of the fact that free hides threatened
to provoke an insurrection among
"standpat" senators from cattle-rais-
ing states. 1t appears, however that
Mr.. Payne's victory was a costly one
inasmuch as the House conferees
were defeated on coal. print paper,
iron ore and lumber.
The chief victory won by the Sen
ate was the retention of its duties on
lumber. These represent reductions
from Dingley rates but are not nearly
as low as the House rates, which be-
gan with 81 on rough lumber. Like
wise a victory was won by the Senate
through the acceptance by the confer
ence committee of rate of $3.50 a
ton on print paper instead of the So
rate fixed by the House.
The conference report will be ready
for presentation to the House as soon
as the rule in regard t. ME leather
schedule is adopted by that body.
