WfIMINGTI) TERMS, Stronger Probabilities of a Settlement of the Tariff Fight. ACTION BY SENATE CAUCUS. It Decides to Return the Bill to Conference Without Instruction. WHAT WILL BE THE OUTCOME’ 1 Many Conflicting Reports Emanate From the Secret Conference, but Managers of I the Bill Insist That Upon the Main Propositions of Sugar, Coal and Iron There Will Be No Change—House Mem- , bers Take a Hopeful View of the Sltill ation—Mr. Cleveland Announces the Commission to Investigate Strike Trou- . bles—Other Capital Affairs. Washington, July 26. —The senate , will accede to the request of the house for another conference on the tariff bill, and its conferrees will return to the i 1 meeting with those ofthe house untram- j | inelled by any specific instructions whatI ever. This was the conclusion of the ■ Democratic senatorial caucus which adjourned sine die late yesterday, after a i two days’ sitting. While the caucus did not commit itself to any definite line of i policy in so many words, the conferrees feel, with their Democratic colleagues, j that they understand what a majority of ! them desire, aud /hey believe this to be that they shall stand substantially for | the senate bill. This is not the individ-M* l ual preference of many, nor jierhaps of a ' majority of the Democratic senators, ! but ft represents the opinion of most of ■ them as expressed in the caucus as to I I AjJwra - W A V WTNW w ya SENATOr. JARVIS., the only practical course o]v?n to the Democrats who think that the present congress must pass a tariff bill of some kind, whether it be what they prefer or not. In other words, the result of the caucus which has just closed is the reascertaining ot what was known when the three days’ caucus closed last March —that it is impracticable to pass any tariff bill through the senate which does not meet the demands of the so-called conservative senators and the Louisiana senators. Three Plans Considered. It became evident soon after the caucus convened that the resolution of Senator Jarvis to send the bill back to the conference without instructions was the only course open. The other propositions were those of Senator Vilas and his friends, one of which provided for instructions to recede from the 1-8 of a cent differential on refined sugar without other change in the sugar schedule, ami the other to substitute for the present schedule a duty of 45 per cent ad valorem without any differential, and that of the conservatives to instruct the committee to stand by the senate amendments. Senator Vilas and two other senators opposed the latter course, and conservative senators declared alsohitely and emphatically that they would not accept the Vilas proposition, even though the ad valorem should be increased to 45 per cent. Senator Smith declared that such a change meant the shutting down of the refineries in his state, the throwing of thousands out of employment and a general disturbance of industrial conditions such as he could not contemplate with composure and would not accept. No Change I’redicteiL There have been few secret conferences from which so many conflicting reports emanatiid, and it was apparent that each senator took away an understanding to suit himself as to what Implied instructions the conferrees were under. Some felt that the senate bill would be adhered to, and others that the main point of difference (the 1-8 of a cent on refined sugar) was- to be eliminated and perhaps a new sugar schedule presented. But from those senators who have been managing the bill the statement came with forceful emphasis that upon the main propositions upon which the house differed—sugar, coal and iron ore—there would be no change from the senate bill when it was returned from conference. One thing which every one felt assured of was that 43 votes could be counted on to send the bill back to conference. The speeches were as a rule devoted to advising a strenuous effort to secure party harmony' on the basis of a bill which would receive the support of 43 members of the senate. Faces Wreathed In Smiles. Great earnestness was exhibited in the speeches of the New Jersey and Louisiana senators. Other senators, as a rule. spoKe witnout mamtestation ot teeling and the meeting was, upon the whole, far more pleasant than the previous one. A vast majority of those who participated came out with faces wreathed in smiles, and of them indicatedJiy their actions that they believed tliey had inaugurated a line of policy which would insure the passage of a tariff bill. Some of them, who would say nothing as to the proceedings of the caucus, announced themselves as confident of the ultimate success of the bill. The vote on the resolution to send the bill to conference again /was not unani- 1 ■a®) .Y ' - * v-, ‘t l«Y‘- r/ -

moue. Senn‘or Vilas and a few others opposed it and explicitly stated that their jiarticipatlon in the caucus should ! not be considered as binding them to support the report of the conference I committee when again presented. Senators Hill, Murphy ami Irby were again altsenf from the caucus. lotting Inntruetlona. Into Kflteot. It is understood that an. attempt will be made in the senate today to carry into effect the instructions of the caucus. I There may be some delay caused by more speechmaking, but the senate members of the conference committee are of the opinion that the cc®Jprenoe will be reopened by tomorrow morning. A new phase was given to the discussion on coal by a proposition that the senate rate of 40 cents a ton should stand, with a proviso for admitting coal I free from Buoh countries as make a recI iprocity agreement to admit coal from the United S’ates free. While no agreement was reached the expressions were 1 so generally favorable to the proposition that it was regarded as one ofthe points on which common ground in conference , could be reached. There was little discussion on iron ore and nothing was done to change the situation on that article. Iloime Sentiment C'liaiiglng. The action of the senate canons was received with much satisfaction by members of the house, who gathered at the public centers and discussed prospects of a speedy settlement. Although the gen- ' eral understanding was that the senators had not yield“d bn iron ore and discussed a reciprocity clause on coal, yet the ' tendency was so strong for a termination of the struggle that there was no criticism of what the senators were expected to do. The tendency in the house to end the controversy has become very marked and is participated in by members who have heretofore been unyielding. Many members would now prefer to have the senate bill adopted rather than none, altlfefigh they have heretofore supported the house bill through loyalty to Chairman Wilson and his associates. STRIKE INVESTIGATORS. Keri Min of New York anti Worthington of Illinois to Act With Mr. Wright. Washington, July 26.—The president has appointed John D. Kernan of New York and Nicholas E. Worthington of Peoria. Ills., to act with Labor Commissioner Carroll D. Wright in the investigation of the Chicago strike. Lyman Trumbull declined to act on account of ill health. Mr. Kernan is a well known lawyer in Utica, N. Y., and a son of ex-United States Senator Kernan. He has been a particular aud thorough student of labor questions and has written sefFerlffMniportaut contributions bn this sinbject. He was chosen because of his undoubted understanding of the subject a/id his well known sympathy with the laboring clas ss. Nicholas E Worthington is now a judge of the Illinois circuit court. He represented the Peoria district in congress about eight years ago. CONGRESS. Summary of the Detailed Proceedings In the Two Houses. Washington, July 26.—After routine in the senate Mr. Caffery of Louisiana proceeded to a discussion of the sugar features of the tariff bill. He concluded bv saying that if tariff reform was pushed too far he and his colleague would lie compelled to note against the measure. Mr. Hunton followed with an expression in favor of a duty on coal and iron for purely revenue purposes and for the sugar differential. Mr. Quay gave notice of amendment to Mr. Vilas’ differential amendment, which has been so much discussed, and other amendments that the senate recede from the whole sugar schedule. An executive session was then held. The bouse heard the communications which passed, between the French and American governments on the death of President Carnot. After considerable discussion the legislative, judicial and executive appropriation bill was passed as reported from conference. 1 HOPEFUJL, BUT NOT SANGUINE. Speaker Crisp Not Certain of Speedy Settlement aud Adjournment. Washington, July “Speaker Crisp said last night that no programme or plan of action on the tariff as far as the house was concerned had been or would be outlined until the senate had acted on the question of sending the bill back to conference. This disposed of reports that some radical steps might be taken by the house to break the deadlock. The speaker anticipates that the next conference will be marked by a conciliatory spirit and by a disposition to give and take. He does not yet join in the general expression of members that a settlement and adjournment are close at hand. Confident Conferree McMillin. Washington, July 26. —Representative McMillin, one of the Democratic house conferrees on the tariff, called at the white house yesterday, accompanied by the chief justice of Tennessee. While the visit was of a social character the tariff situation was informally discussed. Late in the day Mr. McMillin told his associates that he felt absolutely confident that a tariff bill would be agreed on and passed within a few days. He said no element would take the responsibility of giving the final and fatal blow to any tariff legislation. Camden’H Sugar Dealings. Washington, July 26. —Os the three witnesses before the sugar investigating committee yesterday Messrs. Allison and Bruce, New York brokers, it is understood, testified to having seen an order for sugar stock signed by Senator Camden. Mr. Seymour, another broker, declined to answer questions. Senator Camden, when given opportunity to controvert these implications, stated to the reporter that he was not ready to say anything. Condition of Gladstone’s Eyes. London, July 26.—The Lancet says that the pupil of Mr. Gladstone’s eye, which was recently operated on, has become so obstructed that a. needle operation is necessary. His other eye is affected with an immature cataract. His general health is good and his vigor remarkable. Mourning Publisher*.
