Washington, May zN. The antlo-
Ited strenuous opposition to the
adoption of the conference retmrt on'
'the Aldrlch-Vreeland currency bill In
Ithe senate, according to the Infer
ence to be drawn from the debate to-1
day, probably will not materialize.
Aldrich kept the report before the
senate until near'.v 4 p. ni.. when he
, assented to its being laid aside until
. 11 o'rl ck tomorrow, and the reniain
, der of the time today was devoted to
the passace of unohjert-d house bills

I From the position assumed bv Jtlm
It didn't appear necessary to obtain
an agreement to vote on the confer
ence report tomorrow. In fact, it
: was said that an agreement might de
lay taking the vote, as the senators
were unwilling to fix a time earlier
than 5 o'clock, though It is not be
lieved tlia the senators who want to I
