CANNON IS DISPLElSED
 WITH FINAL SCHEDULES
Changes Made by Taft Are Downward Yet Tariff Experts Declare the Bates Are Higher Than
 the DneIey Bill.

Washington, July 29.-The Payne-Ald- rich tariff bill tonight stands completed. An agreement on all disputed points was reached late this afternoon and the con ferees report was signed by the repub- lican conferees. It will go to the House tomorrow and be voted on by that body on Saturday. The Senate will begin con- sideration of the measure as agreed to by the conferees Monday.
 Halted by the mandate of President Taft the tariff conferees were compelled to turn back and revise their rates on lun- Der and gloves. In communication to Senator Aldrich and Representative Payne the President demanded that the birh rates on gloves fixed by the House and the high rates on lumber as fixed bv the Senate, should not be made part of the conference report
 After struggling over these questions throughout the entire day the conferees surrendered to the Presidents view and signed the report The report will go to the House tomorrow at noon and will be ordered to be printed. The House may be called to meet at 10 o'clock on Sat,,r day, for it is the intention of the leaders that the report shall be pushed through in one legislative day Probably a week will be required to dispose of the confer ence report in the Senate.
 conferees Make Mistake,
 When the conferees fixed lumber and glove rates yesterday by shading very slightly the higher rates on each, they were so certain that the President would consent to the arrangement that notices were sent to the democratic members of the conference committee to be present at 10 o'clock today to approve or disap- prove of the conference report
 The President had other ideas of what the rates should be and expressed him. self forcbiy in a letter to the tariff con- ferees today. He said that lumbar should not be more than $1 .25 per 1000 feet for rough. with the differentials fixed by the Senate on finished lumber. He declered also that the Senate rates on gloves. which are the same the Dingley rates and much less than the House rates. would have to be adopted in order to obtain his indorsement.
 Not content with issuing an iniunctfon against high rates on these articles The President specified that hides must ro on the free list and the House rates on hoots ana shoes ana other manufactures of leather reduced. Hosiery. too, he thought should be reduced below the House rates which were advances over the DinrIev rates.
 It was not until after the democratic members had assembled that the White House communication was received at the conference chamber.
 After its contents had been discussed by the republican members of the com mittee. the minority members were in- formed that the conference report could not yet be submitted to them
 Democrats Annoyed.
 Senator Daniel of Virginia and Repre- sentative Griggs of Georgia exhibited some annoyance at having been called into session prenaturely, but Senator Bailey advised his associates to go in peace. The democrats then held a lit- tie conference of their own. The repub- Ncans were criticised, but Senator Bailey again came to their defense by calling attention to the fact that if the demo- orats were in power, charged with the responsibility of making tariff bill they would not want ary republicans to help them. Later Representative Champ Clark of Missouri was given 8 copy of the bill as the cpnferess intend to report 1t, ex-i cent for the schedules discussed by the President Tn his letter. The democrats then went into session.
 The minority members were in the con-
