Washington, July 20.—The difficulty experienced by the
leader» of the houae and senate in getting sufficient voles to
tarry through the modified form of the president s free raw
aatenal platform was augmented today through the develop-
n«nt of serious differences in the conference room over the
large number of important schedules that have not been dispos­
ed by the conferees.
The conference has given its attention almost entirely to
the dutiable list, leaving it to the leaden of both houses and the
-rendent to determine the course of action in regard to the
free raw material controversy.
The conference adjourned until tomorrow in order that the
jonferces might huvo more time to look into the questions in-
Tolvsd in consideration of the schedules that are unsettled.
Wide differences of opinion were encountered in today's de­
liberations and little progress was made.
