With the Tariff Qusation-Ilsultt VIII
Hold Morrison and lurd Level. 4.


From Our Special Correspondent .,.l III
WASHINGTON, January 7.-The Capitol
presented a lively scene this morning. The
floor OF the House was crowded with Wis
itora, and there was general hand.shakiug
on the part OF the members returning from
their holiday vacation. Many Of the mem.
bers we're at their desks at an early hour,
busily engaged in preparing bills to be pre-.
ser!ed on the call Of States. A general
activity, suggestive Of the commencement
In earnest OF the work OF q lively session,
was manifested. tC
Upon the very start 1t is evident tha
there will not bo perfect harmony iu the
ranks Of either purity upon the important
queations which will call for their coneid-
Grafton during the session. It seems quite
certain that the Democrats Of the WaYf
and Means Committee will not act in per.
feet accord Tor any one policy concerning
the tariff question, aud the result will be u
prolonged fight on the floor Of the House.
Mr.. Hewitt, It is thought, will maintain his
views 10 the last and will have enough fol-
lowers in the committee to hold the bal.
ance OF power, which It Is thought will
operate rs check to Mr.. Morrison and
Mr.Hu1d. Should these gentlemen declare
in favor OF a sweeping reduction Of the
tariff, 1t Is thought the light will be pro.
longed 10 the end Of the session without
anything being done.
In view Of this 1t is these dire OF Mr.
Randall to get all the appropriation bills
before the House and to dispose Of other
important matters as speedily as possible,
and he will probably use the privilege Of
the Appropriations Committee to inter.
rupt prolonged discussion. This and
muny other matters promise material for
u very lively session, thoug b it will prob.
ably be cut short by tho anxiety Of the va.
rions members concerning their campaign
interests.
