DEMOCRATS CAUCUS
ON MANY SCHEDULES

WASHINGTON, April s.-In the in
terest of success for the Democratic
tariff revision bill President Wilson to-
day stepped over another obstacle in
the way of perfect harmony between
the White House and the directing
forces of congress.
For the second successive day he left
his own Offices in the White House and
journeyed to the capitol, this time for
an hour and half conference with
democratic members of the senate
finance committee,
HARMONY PREVAILS
At its conclusion the president
stated frankly to newspaper men thas
he and members of the senate were
agreed that nothing stood in the way
of harmonious support "of the party
platform" as to tariff revision. The
senate situation was canvassed in de-
tail at the conference. The dangers
that might threaten a single bill should
the opponents of free sugar and free
wool combine in sufficient strength to
endanger the democratic majority in
agreement was reached that binds the
senate leaders to any definite line OF
action.
HOUSE DEMOCRATS CAUCUS
While the conference was in prog
ress the full democratic membership of
the house was in caucus at the other
end of the capitol. discussing the de-
tails of the tariff bill. the first schedule
of which was agreed to without
change. Representative Underwood.
! democratic leader, stated at the conclu-
sion that the tariff revision would go
through the house as a single bill.
The president again ignored long
standing precedent in seeking legis-
lative conference within the capitol.
He met the senators in the presidents
room, near the senate chamber, where
presidents long have come to sign the
last bills of a dying congress, but
which never before had been used as it
was today within the knowledge OF
senate historians.
TALKS TO REPORTERS
At the end of the conference the
president. with democratic simplicity.
stopped in the senate corridor to tell
newspaper men the results of the meet
ing. Members of the senate finance
committee had agreed that the presi-
dent should be the only spokesman for
the conference.
Il hope the senators and representa-
tives will permit me to come here fire.
quently and confer with them in way
to save their, time and mine, he said.
AT our conference this afternoon we
of course were discussing the tariff
The net result is we don't see any diff
ficuity about standing together in
sort of party program"
The president was asked If the con-
ference had decided whether the tariff
would be revised in a single bill or
schedule by schedule.
That's matter for the other end of
