WASHINGTON, May 9.-Cspecial) AT
the end Of the tariff debate and a vote I'm
the senate on the pending bill. as amended,
approaches. considerable interest attaches
to the probable personnel of the conference
committee on the part Of the two houses.
conference committees have in the last
three great tariff bills so completely
changed the measures that It Is expected
that the conference on the present bill will
afford no exceptional result
Senator AldTich, as chairman of the fl
nance committee, will, of course, head the
seven members on behalf of the senate.
Speculation has II that his associate con-
ferces will he Messrs. Burrows, Penrose
and Hale, republicans. and Daniel, Money
and Bailey, democrats
The house cunferecs will likely be Chair
man Payne of the ways and means COM
mittec aud Messrs. Dalzell. Boutel and
Fordney, republicans and Minority Leader
Champ Clark Underwood and Broussard,
democrats.
The selection OF the house conferees, 1t
Is believed, will show departure from the
usual practice OF taking members from
the two parties according to their rank on
the committee. with that view and be-
cause OF the known attitude Of members
toward tariff legislation It is assumed that
Speaker Cannon will prefer Boutell and
Fordney, who are stanch protectiontsts, TO
members of superior rank, ,such as Mccall
and Hin. who have not always been un-
compromising protecuonists. Calderhead
and Needham also outrank Boutell and
Fordney on the committee, but they have
not shown the same zeal for the preserva-
ton of the protective policy

is not going well with Uncle Joe AT this
iuncture and It is believed that he will
make a conferee of Breussard for the same
reason that he assigned him 10 the ways
and means committee, because he is as re-
liable as any republican on tariff questions
and the speaker is prone to reward ais
