The senate tariff leaders asked for mi opportunity to study the Pill until Sunday afternoon. Tliev will then confer with Chairman I'nih rw ood. of the house committee on wnvs and means, and later will h.r.e a final con ference with President Wilson. A careful analysis of the s Hate will he made in the meantime, to determine whether free wool, "one-cent Kiik.ii" and low rates on "market basket" products, will prove n-coptahlo to i. majority of the dom.'cr.iis. Hriefly summarized, the tariff de velopment! of the day were: President Wilson's ultimatum to sugar Interests, that Hoy must nuroc to a tariff of one (tut per pound tor three jenrs, with. free "innr after that time, or he would, at'empt to secure lree sugar at enc.

Tile president submitted his propo-i-al on the sugar taiiff to Kcprcseiitu tivc I'.roiissard, of Louisian a, tally to day. Louisiana senators und repre sentatives conferred and sounded out other members of the senate, to de termine whether enough strength could he secured to fight the free sugar features of the plan. They had reached no decision tonight, however, as to the course they would take. Notwithstanding the sugar contro versy, events no shaped theniHelvea to day as to Indicate that the house, the senate and the president will come to ft definite and final agreement upon the tariff hill before Monday: and that the measure will he prtsented to the house curly next week as an ad ministration measure and with all tariff lenders behind It. After ;t short meeting of the demo cratic' members of the finance com mittee today, Senator Simmons James and Hughes ( ailed on Mr. Cu tler wood and discuss: d the wool, su gar and agricultural tariffs. A de mand from some quartern in the sen ale for an Increase in the agricultural duties and a doubt as to the siieei s of both free wool and free sonar in the senate, constitute the problems over which the senate leaders will work tonight and tomorrow . The house tariff makers have left matters entirely in the hands of the president. Members of the senate finance committee today declined mere would he an ultimate ngroo- inent with the president over all con tested points. It Is understood that unless the sugar compromise is ac cepted by the senatois from southern states, the finance committee prob iibly will act on its own Initiative and comply with President Wii.-o.i's de sires. The situation as it has developed this week is appal, nt y a consumma tion of the plan laid o it by the presi dent and the house and senate baders to brim; the executive department and both branches of oongrcs-t Into HKreomcnt upon the tariff rev ision be fore the new bill leases the custody of the committee that has drawn il. Leading senators pi (dieted today thai there would be no Important matters unsettled when the le'l is Introduced in the house. This situation, unique in tariff his tory of recent years, is expected groat ly to shorten the time required for the passage of the taiiff bill, ami to reduce to nn unusual decree congres sional debate and amendment of the measure. A preliminary uKreement on the bill, it Is claimed, will resujt In the making of few changes by the Pen.'ite when the bill leaches that body. Chairman Vndorweod, when the Ways and means committee adjourned for the day, seemed in a greatly re lieved frame of mind, and expressed the hope that the committee would hear from the president and the sen-i ate iruimiltio by Sunday at the latest. "i u r bill Is ready," said Mr. I'nder Hood. ' The sugar taiiff is the only serious point in controversy and our lotnmitlee lias agreed to do whutevol the president wants us to do, after he has made up his mind. "We expected to net word from the president today, after his conference with the senators, but the word did not come. ! believe, however, thai the whole matter will be determined tomorrow. "If the president cannot 1ring about an agreement on this schedule, we are ready anyway, und the bill will go to the house as a committee bill. "This committee has agreed thus far to every change the president sug gested In our original bill as It reached him. His suggestions were few. Must features of the bill met with Ills heart iest approval. The eomniittee was of the mind that no bill should be pre sented which President Wilson might veto when it reached him. Having made the changes he suggested, we are now ready to uccede to the fur ther recommendations he may make." Hccause of tile delay III settling the sugar schedule, the committee mny not be ready to Introduce the bill on Monday. Chairman t'ndelwood as sured the president that he could have all the time necessary to brim? about an agreement with the senate leaders. If he should ask for time, the bill would be withheld until It was apparent that no agreement could be reached. In this rase, the demo cratic caucus also would be delayed. The ways and means eomniittee chairman declared that every member of his committee was eo-operat Inn with thi' president to bring about har mony. In order to hasten the tariff legislation for the welfare of the country. All agreed that the points of serious difference should be si t tled. by compromise If necessary, be fore the bill Is sent Into the lcgila tlve mill, rather than afterwards when stubborn obstacles in iu lit arise to prolong debate and drag the session along for mouths. A provision of the measure is that it shall become effec tive on midnight of the day on which it is sinned by the pre-ldcnt. This provision und the fact that the meas ure will be a blanket hill, including lb,' Income tax when it conies from the eomniittee, slicngthths the prob ability that it will be considered In congress as one measure, instead of being taken up schedule by Schedule This method, it is said, almost cer tainly will follow If there i- an agree ment between the president and sen ate and house leaders as to the rates. President Wilson Have his cabinet today an outline of the m Kotiata'ns through wlil h he hoped to secure u common agreement on th tariff bill l ater members of the cabinet ex pressed themselves as ill hearty accord Willi me r resiiieins lews on ine. tariff, de, l.iriim that tli president was detel mined to have the people cf the t'rited tSatcS tit free sugar In i three years. The president was hopeful tonight that ho would have the support of the Louisiana senators on the one-eeni sugar proposal nnd that when the bill was Introduced next week It would K' throtich both houses of eonnress smoothly, thereby Ki In;,' an opportunity for other important Ick islatioii.
