The Tariff Conferees Will Not Be Ready to Report Before Thursday, if Then. The republican conferees on the tariff bill were in session again this morning two hours before noon. After they had separated it was said there was no further progress to report. The principal items of difference are those that have been obstacles in the way of agreo- ment from the beginning—sugar, binding twine, metals and glass ware. The key to the whole situation is the sugar schedule. Were an agreement reached on that, less than five minutes would be required to settle all other questions, It is expected, however, by the House conferees that an agreement will be reached before 12 o'clock tonight. while on the Scnate side there is a feeling that the situation is not quite so favor- able as it was last night. After agreement is reached it will require atleast a day for the clerks to prepare the report for presentation to THE WIRE TAPPERS.
