TARIFF AC^ASSURED Good Effect of the White House Conference. ¦ CONFUSION CLEARED AWAY ] Agreement Satisfactory to Presi-j dent Will Be Reached. SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE ALIVE! Executive and the Legislative i Branches Brought Into Closer Harmony. Oat of the confusion of the tariff tit- nation, two propositions seem to stand ont as certainties now: First, that there will not be a dead¬ lock between the two houses, even thongh there should be a delay of a few days to whip the compromises into shape for general acceptance. Second, that the agreement thus to come about will be acceptable to the President and the bill will receive his signature and downright Indorsement. There will be no such fiasco as mark¬ ed the passage of the Wilson bill, it is prophesied; no replica of the "My Dear Catchings" letter, denouncing the tariff legislation as an act of perfidy and dis- honor. Efforts to Hasten Agreement. The effect upon republican senators ami ; representatives of last night's confer- enee at the White House was to stimu¬ late today the spirit of compromise among all factions and to hasten efforts to reach an agreement upon a tariff bill. The s:atement made by some of those in attendance at last night's meeting that no conference report will he brought in until its adoption by both Houses seems assured added to tlie zeal of the efforts of the workers for compromise. The dinner brought a thorough under¬ standing between President Taft ami the members of the conference committee as to what lie desires in tariff legislation and a demonstration that existing con¬ ditions render It unlikely that all the President's desires can be gratified. The outcome is that the conferees are left to do the best they can in the way of com¬ promise among the varying elements of the House and Senate. This outcome apparently was satisfac¬ tory to all concerned. It is declared to mean good feeling between the White House and the Capitol, a sympathetic understanding on the part of the Presi¬ dent of the difficulties confronting the conferees and fostering a general sp:rit of concession 011 all sides. The construction placed upon the out¬ come of the conference was that no ab¬ solute policy of free materials can be In¬ sisted upon, since the declaration was made by Senator Aldrlch that such a policy could not carry in the Senate, and the House leaders were not able to give positive assurance that it would command a majority in the House, owing to the aggressive attitude of republicans from western states. Friendly to Compromise. The further view prevailed today that executive demands are not to dominate the consideration of the tariff bill, but that on the contrary the President lends assent to the principle that all tariff leg¬ islation is a compromise, and he gives free rein to the conferees to work out the best kind of a bill they can. These considerations led during the day to increased activity among the oppo¬ nents of the downright free raw material policy. They are moving heaven and earth to keep some kind of a duty on hides and coal. OH and iron ore are vir¬ tually turned over to the advocates of free raw material. But a compromise od coal and a split of the reduction 011 hides are still among the possibilities of the situation. Lower Duty on Leather. One way In which free hides can be obtained, it is declared, is to reduce the duty on finished products of leather. It is confidently asserted that the leather manufacturers are getting ready to give assent to such reduction, if the parlia¬ mentary status can be arranged. There Is a difficulty there In this respect: the reduction demanded would be below the figures named in either House or Senate bill, and the conferees have no authority to go outside the limitations of their re¬ spective bills. It is suggested that a joint resolution might be passed authorizing the conferees to dro? below the lowest rates named In the bill. The objection te that plan is that it opens up possibility of further dis¬ cussion of the subject in the Senate. The opinion is held by some of the con¬ ferees that the subject of reducing the duties on leather below the minimum fig¬ ures now before the conferees can be opened up without resorting to a joint resolution They contend that there are precedents for such action, and that, fur¬ thermore. the placing of hides on the free list by the House gives an excuse for taking up The duties 011 related subjects. However, It Is admitted that if this is clone, the democrats will immediately de¬ mand free shoes. Not Bound Hard and Fast. Great satisfaction was expressed by both senators and representatives today- over the willingness of the President, as they understood it to be expressed in last night's conference, to stand by the conferees in their compromises and not t«» put out a fl.it ultimatum for absolute free raw material. This spirit is ex- pe< ted to bring a response in kind from the far western senators who have been rather stiff in the past few days in their resistance to free hides and lower duties on coal. Senator Borah of Idaho, who a few .lays ago was in a m<>od to oppose the President's wishes for free hides, has been brought around to the position of viewing with equanimity if not willing- ucss the proposed reduction, providing it can be accompanied by a lowering of the duty of finished products of the leather manufacturers. He was working today on a plan to bring about that compro¬ mise. Last Night's Discussion. Those attending the dinner last night were the Vice President, the Speaker of the House, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney General, Sena¬ tor Hale. Senator Aldrich. Senator Bur¬ rows. Senator Penrose, Senator Crane, Senator Boot. Representative Dalzell. Representative Payne, Representative McCall, Representative Boutell, Repre¬ sentative Calderhead. Representative Fordney, Representative Dwight and Capt. Butt. Capt. Butt withdrew when the tariff talk commenced. After dinner the President and guests retired to the portico. According to the l>est reports of what occurred at the after-dinner conference, the first discus¬ sion was whether a conference report which provided for free iron ore. hid<-s, oil and coal could be adopted In both houses. Senator Aldrlch gave It as his absolute opinion, based upon a canvass of the Senate, that such a report could not pass the Senate. Chairman Payne of the House commit¬ tee was reasonably sure that such a re¬ port could pas«s the House, but he cojld not speak with certainty, as he had not . .jtnvawod the House. The republican whip. Mr. I>wight. was unable to furnish tiBures showing an absolute majority for tree raw material. li is saitl that the President, appar¬ ently realizing that the time was un- propitious to press for a rU-cision on the subject of free raw materials, refrained from demand for further details of the situation in 'lie House and Senate. The discussion then t«>ok up the customs court the corporation tax and other fea- ** "<»« ut the conference.

TARIFF AC^ASSUREDGood Effect of the White

House Conference.¦

CONFUSION CLEARED AWAY]

Agreement Satisfactory to Presi-jdent Will Be Reached.

SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE ALIVE!

Executive and the Legislativei

Branches Brought Into Closer

Harmony.

Oat of the confusion of the tariff tit-

nation, two propositions seem to stand

ont as certainties now:

First, that there will not be a dead¬

lock between the two houses, even

thongh there should be a delay of a few

days to whip the compromises into

shape for general acceptance.Second, that the agreement thus to

come about will be acceptable to the

President and the bill will receive his

signature and downright Indorsement.There will be no such fiasco as mark¬

ed the passage of the Wilson bill, it is

prophesied; no replica of the "My Dear

Catchings" letter, denouncing the tarifflegislation as an act of perfidy and dis-

honor.

Efforts to Hasten Agreement.The effect upon republican senators ami ;

representatives of last night's confer-enee at the White House was to stimu¬late today the spirit of compromise amongall factions and to hasten efforts to reachan agreement upon a tariff bill. Thes:atement made by some of those inattendance at last night's meeting thatno conference report will he brought inuntil its adoption by both Houses seems

assured added to tlie zeal of the effortsof the workers for compromise.The dinner brought a thorough under¬

standing between President Taft ami themembers of the conference committee asto what lie desires in tariff legislationand a demonstration that existing con¬ditions render It unlikely that all thePresident's desires can be gratified. Theoutcome is that the conferees are left todo the best they can in the way of com¬promise among the varying elements ofthe House and Senate.This outcome apparently was satisfac¬

tory to all concerned. It is declared tomean good feeling between the WhiteHouse and the Capitol, a sympatheticunderstanding on the part of the Presi¬dent of the difficulties confronting theconferees and fostering a general sp:ritof concession 011 all sides.The construction placed upon the out¬

come of the conference was that no ab¬solute policy of free materials can be In¬sisted upon, since the declaration wasmade by Senator Aldrlch that such a

policy could not carry in the Senate, andthe House leaders were not able to givepositive assurance that it would commanda majority in the House, owing to theaggressive attitude of republicans fromwestern states.

Friendly to Compromise.The further view prevailed today that

executive demands are not to dominatethe consideration of the tariff bill, butthat on the contrary the President lendsassent to the principle that all tariff leg¬islation is a compromise, and he givesfree rein to the conferees to work out thebest kind of a bill they can.

These considerations led during the dayto increased activity among the oppo¬nents of the downright free raw materialpolicy. They are moving heaven andearth to keep some kind of a duty onhides and coal. OH and iron ore are vir¬tually turned over to the advocates offree raw material. But a compromise odcoal and a split of the reduction 011 hidesare still among the possibilities of thesituation.

Lower Duty on Leather.One way In which free hides can be

obtained, it is declared, is to reduce theduty on finished products of leather. Itis confidently asserted that the leathermanufacturers are getting ready to giveassent to such reduction, if the parlia¬mentary status can be arranged. ThereIs a difficulty there In this respect: thereduction demanded would be below thefigures named in either House or Senatebill, and the conferees have no authorityto go outside the limitations of their re¬spective bills.

It is suggested that a joint resolutionmight be passed authorizing the confereesto dro? below the lowest rates named Inthe bill. The objection te that plan isthat it opens up possibility of further dis¬cussion of the subject in the Senate.The opinion is held by some of the con¬

ferees that the subject of reducing theduties on leather below the minimum fig¬ures now before the conferees can beopened up without resorting to a jointresolution They contend that there areprecedents for such action, and that, fur¬thermore. the placing of hides on the freelist by the House gives an excuse fortaking up The duties 011 related subjects.However, It Is admitted that if this isclone, the democrats will immediately de¬mand free shoes.

Not Bound Hard and Fast.Great satisfaction was expressed by

both senators and representatives today-over the willingness of the President, as

they understood it to be expressed inlast night's conference, to stand by theconferees in their compromises and nott«» put out a fl.it ultimatum for absolutefree raw material. This spirit is ex-pe< ted to bring a response in kind fromthe far western senators who have beenrather stiff in the past few days in theirresistance to free hides and lower dutieson coal.Senator Borah of Idaho, who a few

.lays ago was in a m<>od to oppose thePresident's wishes for free hides, hasbeen brought around to the position ofviewing with equanimity if not willing-ucss the proposed reduction, providing itcan be accompanied by a lowering of theduty of finished products of the leathermanufacturers. He was working todayon a plan to bring about that compro¬mise.

Last Night's Discussion.Those attending the dinner last night

were the Vice President, the Speakerof the House, the Secretary of theTreasury, the Attorney General, Sena¬tor Hale. Senator Aldrich. Senator Bur¬rows. Senator Penrose, Senator Crane,Senator Boot. Representative Dalzell.Representative Payne, RepresentativeMcCall, Representative Boutell, Repre¬sentative Calderhead. RepresentativeFordney, Representative Dwight andCapt. Butt. Capt. Butt withdrew whenthe tariff talk commenced.

After dinner the President and guestsretired to the portico. According to thel>est reports of what occurred at theafter-dinner conference, the first discus¬sion was whether a conference reportwhich provided for free iron ore. hid<-s,oil and coal could be adopted In bothhouses. Senator Aldrlch gave It as hisabsolute opinion, based upon a canvassof the Senate, that such a report couldnot pass the Senate.Chairman Payne of the House commit¬

tee was reasonably sure that such a re¬port could pas«s the House, but he cojldnot speak with certainty, as he had not. .jtnvawod the House. The republicanwhip. Mr. I>wight. was unable to furnishtiBures showing an absolute majority fortree raw material.

li is saitl that the President, appar¬ently realizing that the time was un-propitious to press for a rU-cision on thesubject of free raw materials, refrainedfrom demand for further details of thesituation in 'lie House and Senate. Thediscussion then t«>ok up the customscourt the corporation tax and other fea-** "<»« ut the conference.
