Lincoln Mcconnell is universally
conceded to be one of the most orig

House Conferees Believe the
Revenue Will Not be Am.
pie For Government.
CRITICAL STUDY
OF THAT FEATURE
Hope OF Immediate Disposition Of the
Measure Goes Glimmerins-Ei<h,
teen Questions Still in Disuuts
When Committee Began Work.

Washington. Sept. 2o.-A critical
study Of the Underwood -simmous
tariff bill to determine whether Il Will
produce enough revenue for govern
mental needs was still under way.
when the tariff conference committee
resumed Its work. Reductions by the
senate in many instances are opposed
by the house conference on the
ground that they cut the revenues be-
yond the margin OF safety.
Chairman Simmons Of thu aenafe
conterees announced that the bill will
amply meet the revenue needs Of the
nation.
Some more important disputes.
however. on articles which the house
members fear the reduction Of rates
mean too much loss Of revenue. are
expected.
May Be Badly Delayed.
Hope of the conferees Of the house
and senate to reach an agreement in
the next few days on the tariff bill
went glimmering when the conference
adjourned last night with about siRh-
teen questions still in disagreement.
Some a dozen Of thess have produced
determined deailoclxs, with all sides
appealing to President Wilson for as
sistance.
Representative Underwood express
ed the hope last night that by tonight
all the taxing features might be
agreed upon. Senator Simmons was
not SO hopeful. stating that It would
take two or three days next week.
probably before the bill was com.
pleted.
At yesterdays session Of the con.
ferees the house receded from its de.
mand for free ferro managanese and
the senate compromised on the house
rates on angora wool and .mohair.
which had been free listed. In the
afternoon disputes over works of art,
fur and leather were disposed of.
Works or art We're put on the free
list practically as originally proposed
by the house and without certain sen.
ate restrictions; furs. dressed and un.
dressed, were free listed. the house re.
ceding from its demand from duties
ranging from 10 to 40 per cent; and
leather was free listed, with the ex-
ception of ten per cent dutv on an.
ameled upholstered leather. The
house had put feathers generally on
the free list, and the senate's amend.
ment made them Iutiable at 10 per
cent.
Close tabulations have been kept Of
the effect Of the various amendments
adopted on the revenue to be produc.
ed by the measure. Experts have in.
formed Senator Simmons that "a at
present drawn and agreed, the bill
will produce an income that should
| give the government q surplus OF $16..
| 10000 in normal year.
