Rome, Jan. 24.-(By The A. P.)- While there seems to be no doubt that the next Pope will be an Italian, the newspapers express the hope that Ehe next pontiff may be one who will put an end to the long discord between the church and the Italian government. Seemingly for thal. reason, Cardinal Maffi,, archbishop of Pisa, is strong ly favored by Italians, judging from the comment. In virtually all the newspapers his name appears at the head of the list for the tiria of St. Peter. The new spaper Popolo says l. is in possession of q secret circular sent out by Premier Rom0mito the prefects urging all of them IL reserve toward the cardinals, glvIn=s them every facility for making the journey to Rome and thus doing what they can to assure that the conciave elect a Pope favorable to an agreement be- the government and the Vaucin- It follows adds the newspaper, that the candidate to whom the govern ment will give all support will be Cardinal Maffi, who is noted for his ICaIlanily.

conferees OF. the two houses. The bill
passed by the House differs both fun
damentally and in detail from that
with which the Senate in now wres-
tling. The House adopted the Ameri-
can valuation plan; the Senate one
with rates based on foreign valuation.
The House put the American vaIua-
ton plan through in few weeks.
The Senate threw it into the scrap
heap. Mr.. Fcrdney, who appears to
have n much better control over the
House than Mr.. McCumber has dis
played in handling the Senate edition
of the bill. is confident that he will be
able to impose mis- views on the upper
House, or there will be no tariff bill.

Several Republican Senator's, like
Mr.. Lenroot. who has refused TO accept
the McCumber Offering at its face
value. believes the tariff bill which
finally will become a law viii be put
together by the conference committee
of the two houses. Mr.. Lenroot's
position is that the Senate itself
should correct as many of the in
adequate and unequal rates proposed
by Mr.. Mccumber's committee as
possible.
He will vote for the bill which he
has condemned to a greater extent
than any other Republican Senator
and leave the rest to the conference.
That which is true of the Wisconsin
Senator. who has displayed both yigcr
and intelligence in demanding the cor
rection OF the more glaring evils of
the McCumber bill. also applies to
other members OF his party in the

and he asked Senator Frellnghuysep
whether he voted for 1.6 cents.

said Senator Harrison, ''the people of
Cuba were aroused and they sent a COM

against the very high rate imposed on
sugar, namely,'.1.6 cents.
do you know that they had con-
ference In this country protesting against

made the protest. If you will reduce

Senator Harrison said the Cubans took
the position they could not restrict the
crop then because contracts had. been
entered into and ii was too late. He
added that in little while the Govern
ment appointed Gen. Crowder to go to
Cuba in order to help the island solve
it's economic problems.
Senator Harrison charged that Sena-
tor Smoot wrote a letter to Gen.
Crowder proposing that If Cuba would
reduce her crop to 100000 tons this
country then would take under con-
sideration the maintenance of a reduc-
tion in the present rates on sugar"

Senator Harrison presented a docu-
