CONFEREES HAVE STRUCK
ANOTHER SNAG IN THE
NEGOTIATIONS. p:

WASHINGTON. Sept. 25.-After
finishing all but about a half dozen
OF the points OF difference between
the senate and house. the tariff bill
conferees ran into another deadlock
today and adjourned tonight with the
conference report still incomplete
Three important matters were still
at issue. the tariff rates on cotton
yarns and cotton cloths and on lead
and zinc ores. and the dates when
! free raw wool and changes in the
woolen goods tariff should become
effective
Members of the conference COM
mittee could not predict tonight how
soon an agreement could be reached
on these items. With the aid OF sx-
perts they spent the afternoon going
over the cotton schedules estimating
revenues and calculating the enec:
on the woolen industry of the pro
posed changes.
Both houses OF congress gave up
nope OF report from the conference
Journing until Saturday and the sen.
ate until Monday. The report NAV
go INTO the house Saturday.
