WiaiiitfOTO*, Augu?t 8.?Sonatora
JoQQt and Vest, of tho tariff oonforonce
committee, and Senators Gorman and
Smith, acting on bohalf of tho conservative
senators, held a mooting to-day
previous to the oonvening of tho conference,
and it is undorstood docidod
that tho time had arrivod whontho conferenoe
should come to an end, either
by an agreement or a disagreement,
ami that they arranged a programme
for bringing about this result.
Theprogrammo as detailed was tohavo
the senate conferoos do their utmost to
soenre an agrooment, and in coso of
failore, to urgo that a disagreement be
reported without further delay; and,
failing to secure tho connont'of the
house members to this pluu, for the
senate conferoos to go into tho sonato
and ask to be discharged from iurther
consideration of tho tariff bill in conferenoe.
Senator Jones, aftor the morning confereuoe,
said that if thoro wan a programme
for the senate oonforees to ask
to bo discharged in ojcistonco, he was
not awaro of tho fact. Ho did not dony
that tho sonato conforcos might ask to
be aliohargod, but added that he did
not think that such a roquest would bo
made to-day. Ho also stated that tho
proceedings of the morning conferenco
had not left the situation materially
changed froin what it was aftor adjournment
yesterday.
BSPODMOAX POSITION,
The Republican steering committoo
of tho sonato holds froquont sessions
these- days, and tbia morning hold a
Boston of considerable importance in
viow of the various propositions that
the Democrat In the senate have
threatened. The main point was prac?
tically ugrced upon. Tho Republicans
think It is no time to debate tho dilforonces
that exist in tho Domooratic
ranks, The proposition that has boon
made to mako sugar froo was also discussed
this morning, and the boaring it
would have on tho success of tbo bill.
Tho opinion wag oxproasod that by
putting sugar on tho free list the votes
of the I/>uisiana senators would bo lost
to tho bill, but that Senator Potior
might vote for it Tho Republicans
say that if a proposition is maae to put
euRar on the froe list it will receive tho
support of nearly tho ontiro Republican
side.
humors and rcmow.
When the tariff conferees adjourned
for their usual roooss the air ;waa full
of rumors of all kinds, among them bo*
ing statements that an agrooment
would be reached at tho afternoon sob*
sion. The conferees all declinod to soy
anything. A loading conservative senator
said that the house must take the
responsibility of risking another voto
upon tbo bill in the sonato. Thero
seemed a determination on tho part of
the senate to force a decision, one way
or another, daring the day, bat the
issue may be further.' dolayod.
Chairman Wilson aud Roprosontativo
Montgomery joined Speaker Ori?p in
his private office after tho recoss of tho
conferooa. Tho roport was soon circulated
among members of tho houto,
and generally credited, that an agroowould
bo roached to-day. This
could not be positively confirmed, however,
from any of tho conforees. Ono of
them said that there was sure to bo a
bill, but ho would not sav how soon.
Chairman Wilson when asked as to the
roport said with diplomacy that ho
hoped it might bo truo. Being asked
directly if it woro truo he ropliod: "Not
as this doponont knowoth." He wan
evidently in a hopeful mood, howovor.
