1 would he a wise man, indeed, who
, could tell “wher* tin* tariff hill is
at." It lias heen tossed hack and
forth by the contending and eon-
Hiet ing interest until friend and en-
emy tilike is in doubt, not only as to
its present status, but as to whether
it is going to become a law in any
shape. It lias passed through a eri-
, sis of some kind,at least once in every
21 hours for Hie last four or five days.
< Mice the conferees readied informally
a definite agreement and those who
knew of it went to sleep believing
that the thing was at last settled,
hut even while the people were read
ing the news in the morning papers
of the country, the next day the
agreement whs being repudiated by
the conferees. Since the conferees do
not agree in locating the fault for not
living up to this agreement after it
was publicly announced it would be
presumptions in your correspondent
to attempt to do so. Rut indications
are plentiful to sustain the charge
made by democrats that one of the
principal difficulties of the party is
that there are influential members of
it in the House,as well as the Senate, !
who do not wish a tariff hill passed.
This week opens with an apparent |
determination to pass or jo kill the
taritT hill before it doses. Smudor

vised eoneiirrrenee in all the Senate'
amendments, so as to head olf the
feared intention of the Senate to
adopt a motion as soon as the hill is
tu ii proper parliamentary condition
to postpone il* further consideration
until the next »onj*jui| ill fongress
