the present situation with regard to
the tariff bill.
Previously Cummins rad been in
consultation for two hours with the
president and an exchange of views
had passed between Cummins and
others of them who voted against the
tariff bill in the senate.
The announcement is evidently in
tended to meet the idea that the
president. in his demand for down
ward revision, is to be content with
free raw material 81 endorse every
word OF the statement recently made
by the president, and earnestly hope
, that he will be successful in bringing
the conferees to his views" says
Cummins, who then called attention
to the fact that especial emphasis has
been placed upon the so-called raw
materials.
81 feel compelled" says Cummins,
"to remind the public that neither
the presidents statement nor our
fight was so confined" He then pro-
ceeded to continue "while ii is of ut
most Importance that iron ore. oil.
hides and coal be dealt with as pro-
posed by the president, IL is of still
greater Importance that the duties on
manufactured products shall be
brought down somewhere near the
productive point. 1t will be OF little
advantage to the body of people to
do away with the unnecessary duties
upon raw materials IL the manufact-
urers are permitted to enjoy excess
sive duties that enable them to take
extortionate profits upon things the
people must buy and use"
Cummins outlines his principal OBJ
jections to the bill as 1t left the SEN
ate. He says the reductions in the
steel schedule generally are not suffi-
eient. but the schedule might be ac-
cepted but for the increase on struct-
ural iron and steel. This increase, he
says, means a duty of SIC a ton. Gan
Increase over the present low rate of
So a ton, and over the house provis-
ion Of $40 a ton"
Steel Rails.
"When 1t is considered" he con-
tinues. that the duty on steel rails
is $3.50 a ton. and their market price
s2S a ton, the proposed duty upon
the form of steel which sells for s35
a ton is wholly indefensible."
Cummlns says further, commenting
on the lumber schedule, II both rough
and dressed lumber are not free as
they ought to be. the house rate of
81 on rough lumber should be pre-
Iserved and the differential upon
dressed lumber should begin at 25
cents a thousand. and not go beyond
sixty cents per thousand.
The Paper Schedule.
'In the paper schedule the house
rate of 50 ton on print paper. with
out the possibility of increasing II by
a countervailing duty, and free wood
pulp, also protected against a counter
yalling duty, should be rigidly'insist-
ed upon"
He believes the senate increases in
|cotton should be rejected. The wooden
schedule, he considers to be mani
testify wrong. The wool grower, he
says. is sacrificed in order to give un-
due protection to the worsted wool
manufacturer. The whole schedule
is so indefensible that readjustment
seems imperative. even though To ac-
complish 1t the conference report will
be voted down and the bill brought
before the senate again for amend
ment.

The day was one of conferences

the white house last night. participant
ed in by the president, Aldrich and
Payne. at which Taft was assured
that harmonious settlement Of the
differences between the two houses
is practicable.
The senators opposed to the free
raw material program we're consulted
by Aldrlch, and the committee re-
porting same position on the house
side held a conference with Payne.
In addition, the house conferees met
this afternoon to have the experts of
the senate finance committee explain
the senate changes in the cotton
schedule.
II is evident that the president. by
Informing the conferees that the dis

Element, brought about a condition
that augurs well for an early agree
ment of the conference report. Aid
rich today met large number OF sen
ators who are opposed to free hides,
coal. and iron ore. and no encourage
ment was offered for placing any of
these articles on the free list. The
tariff insurgents" in the house who
oppose free raw materials today
adopted resolutions protesting against
the plan.
Dwight, of New York. the Republi-
can whip of the house, conferred with
Aldrich this afternoon and informed
him that the anti-free raw material
sentiment in the house was a matter
which required serious consideration.
He said its strength had grown to As
members. The advocates OF dutiable
hides in both houses declare a COM
promise is possible, but they cannot
consider the placing of these articles
on the free list. One conferee de-
clared that the plan to reduce the

for free hides was not feasible with
out a long delay and, that the presi-
dent undoubtedly would accept the
judgment of the conferees on this
point.
With regard to the free reciprocity
provision on coal there also was a
firm stand. The members interested
in coal declared that such a provision
would make the situation with regard
to coal untenabie for the operatives
and that a reduction in the senate
rate would close TOR reciprocal free
trade was more acceptable.
That the nominal duty of >iron ore
will be agreed to by the conferees was
indicated last night. II is understood
that Payne is insisting on absolutely
free ore. II is more than likely that
the conference report will place pet
roleum on the free list without the
countervailing duty proposition.
