Contest Over the House and Senate Sugar
Schedule.
Washington, July 13. Speaker
Heed has interposed his powerful
authority to stop the sugar scandal
in the tariff conference committee
room. He has eiven Ibe republican
conferees on the part of the house
to understand that if they yield to
.he senate on this ecbedule tbeir
report will ba rejected by the house,
even if such action might jeopardize
the passage of a tariff bill at tfcis
session of congress.
As a result, the coinpromisa agree
ment cn the sugar schedule, which
was practically reached yesterday, is
off, and it is impossible to predict
what the outcome will be.
It is now known that this compro
mise placed a duty of $1.90 ou mch
100 pounds of jsugar.
When Speaker Reed heard of th's
agreement to day he hurried over to
the senate tide of the Capital and,
going directly to the rooms of the
Finance Committee sent for Senator
Allison. The Iowa t enator appeared
in a moment and Mr. Heed brought
up the subject of the sugar t cbedule
He talked with vehemence and Sena
tor Allison responded with contider
able fire. The consultation lasted
several minutes and then the speaker
called out Mr. Diogley, t) whom he

opinion of the compromise.

in his oppotitioa to the sugar com

night that if the conference agrees
to aoythirg else than the Houee
rates on sugar they will reject the
report at oucj.

American Farmer Dictator This Ytar. The
World's Visible Supply is Small, but
Grain is Plenty in this Country.
New York, July 15. That the
TJoited States will be in a po ition
to dictate the pice of wheat this
year is Ibe confident prediction of
maiy of tbe closest obeervra of the
general crop lituaticn Tbe world's
visible supply at the presut time
probably is the amallest for years
and the demand from Europe fer
American wheat is the mum of the
recent advance. The English crop
will fall bhort two bushels to tbe
acre. Reports from Russia are du
bious, and a heavy shortage in
France is almost a certainty. Adtises
also indicate that the crops of Aus
tria, Hungary, Bulgaria aod portions
of Germany and Italy will fall below
the average. The American crop
will certainly be above normal.
The present strength of the mar
ket is attributed joiutly to English
buying and to a speculative move
ment for higher pricis in St. Louis
