SESSION WENT SMOOTHLY
Many Difficult Points Were Safely Passed -Compre- mises Effected Between the House and Senate Rates.

Washington, July 21.-Better pro- gress was made today by the tariff conferees than on any other day since the troublesome disputes were reached Many paragraphs were set tied without a renewal of hostilities.
 The president is given credit for the smoothness of the conference. It de- veloped that after Messrs. Aldrich and Cannon told their troubles to President Taft yesterday, he under took to bring the warning factions together. He ordered out his big touring car to MT. Payne's home. Soon the chairman of the ways and means commitete and the president were riding out toward the country roads. The two talked over the sit uation. What they said will never be known, but MT. Payne made no ob- jection today to taking up of sub jects not involved in the White House program concerning raw materials.
 The entire zinc schedule was ad- justed. Spelter was made dutiable at I2sc per pound which is a reduc ton form the senate rate of 112c and an increase from the house rate Of one cent. All differentials of the senate were adopted. Zinc in sheets will be dutiable at 1% and sheets coated or plated with nickel or other metal at two cents. The house rate of one cent for old and wOrn-out zinc fit only 10 be manufactured was adopted.
 Tungsten ore, which is used in the manufacture of ferro alloys, one of the chief component parts in the manufacture of tool steel and the steel parts of automobiles was made dutiable at 10 per cent ad valorem in stead of fifteen per cent as fixed by the senate.
 The senate and house rates on lead ore were identical, the duty being 1Iac a pound. The house made pig lead dutiable at the same rate and the senate provided specifically for lead droSs, lead bullion and pig lead at Bc a pound. This rate was re- duced by the conferees to two cents and as a result one-eighth of a cent was removed from the senate rate on ail paint derivatives.
 Lemons will pay a duty of 11ac a pound the senate rate This is an increase of one-fourth cent pound over the house and one-h half cent over  the Dingley rates
 Senator Borah tried to effect an agreement by which hides may be put on the free list. He said the plan he had to suggest had originated with President Taft. This plan contem- plates the adoption of joint resolution giving the conferees jurisdiction to reopen the question of reducing the duty on leather goods and in con sideration of placing hides on the free list, to make some leather duti- able at five per cent ad valorem; boots and shoes and calf skins at ten per cent, and to reduce rates On- harness in the same proportion. In view of the opposition in the senate to free hides, indications are that combination will be effected with democrats to defeat the Borah plan.
 The progressive republican sena- tors decided to issue a statement out lining their position on downward re- vision. MT. Cummins has been invit- ed to take breakfast with the presi- dent tomorrow to discuss the atti- tude of the insurgents, and there fore it has been decided to withhold a statement until tomorrow.

DIRECTORS OF VALCALDA
CONSIDER FUTURE PLANS

On yesterdays train there arrived
M. NJ. johnson and w. p. O'Meara, OF
the Valcalda force, says the Blair
Press. The latter gentleman was ask
ed as to the future operations of the
property, but stated that he could saJ
nothing definitely except that while
here he and Mr.. johnson would go over
the matter thoroughly, and the develop
nents of the mine would be decided
upon. In the afternoon the gentlemen
took a team and drove over to the Nc
Namara lead mine, across the fiat.
Rumor has it that the gentlemen
were disappointed in not finding Gen.
eral Manager Jussen at home, as, it
seems, that gentleman was expected to
accompany them through the Valcalda
property, but just for what purpose is
not known. By some it is surmised that
the Pittsburg-Si Peak is contem-
plating taking over the Valcalda, and
color is given to this by the fact that
questions asked by President Finn up
on the occasion Of his visit last fall,
would indicate that such an action was
contemplated.
