FRIDAY, July %.

Washington, July 20. - While no
agreement was reached by the tariff
conferees today on coal, lumber, hides,
oil, iron ore, the cotton schedule or
wood pulp and print paper, it was said
tonight that the prospects of settling

cellent.
Heroic measures were used in an
effort to adjust differences between
the senate and house and to carry out
President Taft's program for a reduc-
tion of duties on raw materials. All
the conferees said tonight that the
feelings they entertained for one an

Washington, July "a. - The hide
question was settled and unsettled to-
day, and, while there seems little doubt
that eventually hides will go on the
free list of the new tariff bill, the con-
test over their status cannot be re-
garded as closed. None Of the ques-
tions made prominent through Presi-
dent Taft's interest in them were set
tied today, although the conference
was in strict executive session all day.
The conferees expect to spend a large

Tuesday. July 27.

Washington, July q. -" Lumber
duty of 81 1000 or defeat for the
tariff conference report by the house. :"
This in effect was the ultimatum given
President Taft tonight by Chairman
Payre, of the ways and means commit
tee, and q number Of other congress
men. The conference at the White
House lasted until late. Mr.. Payne
remained with the president after the
others had gone.
Some Of those present stated posi-
lively that the senate must accede to
the rate of 81 1000 on lumber, as
agreed upon by the house, or the con-
ference report would be defeated.
They told the president they were de-
termined to fight for the lower rate
and it was said that the house would
have the presidents support on this
feature of the tariff measure.
II appears that the house has won
its battle for free hides and free oil
and for increased rates on gloves and
hosiery in return for surrender to the
senate on coal, iron ore and print pa
per.
The rates on these schedules, as ten
tatively arranged pending the accept
ance by both houses of the program for
a reduction in the duties on leather
manufactures below the rates fixed by
the house, follow:
Oil, free.
Hides, free.
Coal, 45 cents ton.
Print paper. SO. a ton.
Iron ore, Is cents ton.
The Echo register. (Echo, Umatilla County, Or.) 190?-1909, 1909-07-30
Monday, July %.

Washington, July 26.-Hides will he
put on the free list il the tariff on
boots and shoes and other leather man.
ufactures is reduced below the house
rates. Unless the advocates of free
hides are able to carry out this plan.
the whole is to be called Off. A decis-
ion to this effect was reached by the
tariff conferees today.
The conference adjourned tonight
until II o'clock tomorrow morning, but
the house members assemble half an
hour earlier that they may plan for
executing their part of the agreement.
1t is expected that they will have re-
port from the house leaders as to the
possibility Of passing rule comforting
jurisdiction upon them to agree to
lower rates on leather than those
named in the house bill.
