FINISH TARIFF
WORK BEFORE
NEXTSATURDAY
Democratic Conferen c e
Committee Will Make No
Further Announcements
Until The Conference
Work Is Completed.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE demo
cratic members of tariff conference
committee now engaged in adjusting
differences between the two houses on
the tariff bill, decided today not to
announce further agreements until the
conference work is completed. The
publication of the agreements brought
many demands for a re-opening of GER
tain schedules.
Chairman Simmons said tonight the
work is progressing more rapidly than
he expected and thought the report
would be completed by the end of the
week. The conferees today finished
up the free list and began on the re-
naming items in the dutiable sched-
ules.
There was a long debate over the
wheat and -four provisions, the house
members objecting to the senate
amendment imposing a duty of ten
cents a busheI on wheat from coun-
tries levying a duty against United
States wheat. The question was un-
settled. The conferees agreed to leave
pig iron on the free list and effected
a compromise on the automobile
schedule, increasing the low senate
rates slightly.

Most Serious Strike In History
Is Now Threatened In England

At Liverpool seven Of the great
freight depots were idle this morning
and others are likely soon to be closed.
All attempts have failed to settle the
Dublin trouble. The difficulty of get

has become so great that it is be-

London has been only indirectly af-
fected by the railroad strikes. The
metropolis is more interested in the
threatened strike of motor omnibus
drivers because the employers refuse
to allow employees TO wear union
badges. The men met today and
passed a resolution favorlng a strike
which would tie up all the motor om

Schmidt still insisted that neither
Ernest A Muret, his dentist friend, nor
Anna Aumuller, the girl he murdered,
knew anything about his counterfeit
ing operations. In reply to l. written
statement sent to his cell, he wrote:
"Anna knew nothing of my plans to
solve the social question by creating
money for all the poor people here
and abroad"
Schmidt maintains that he made bo-
gus money from philantropic motives

little progress today so far as

Assemb1ymen Who Have
Failed of Reelection Are
Not In Anniable Mood
From Various Summons
To Albany.

Albany. n Y, Sept. 17.-Acting
Gov. Glynn and the legislative lead
ers were none too hopeful today that
a. sufficient number of assem- blymen
would be present tonight, when the
state legislature is reconvened, to put
throns the financial program. The
state faces serious financial embar-
rassment unless the revenue bills and
appropriations for bond interest are
paid
Many Of the present assemblymen
were unsuccessful in obtaining nomi-
nations as candidates for reelection
and the unusual drain on their private
resources, owing to repeated recalls to
Albany since the extra session con-
vened, has put them in no amiable
frame of mind toward incurring fur
ther personal expense Their salaries
ceased with the adjournment of the
regular session and under law they
are allowed mileage for only one trip
to Albany TO attend the extraordinary
session.
In the senate, where the Sulzer i'm
peaohment trial will be staged, the
leaders expect practically a full at
tendence. Each senator will be called
on tomorrow to qualify as a member
of the impeachment court and for
this sedvice he will draw a stipend
variously estimated at from $40 10 $50
