Wool Did the Work.

WASHINGTON CITY, May 12-The Cincin-
ma lnquirer's correspondent telegraphed to
n> paper as follows:
Judg3 Geddes gave your correspondent
-,lDe inside history touching the tariff bill.
aid he: Last week some forty Demo-
.. 4tic members who could not
iiscientiously support Mr.. Morrisons
b,li held conference to try and
arrange. if possible, a compromise upon
which the Democrats could unite. The Ohio
delegation, as well as that of California, were
anx.ous TO have some concessions made for
the wool interest After long session
committee of nine was appointed to see Mr..
Morrison and Speaker Carlisle and get their
ultimatum Subsequently, from this commit
tee it was thought best to appoint COM
nittee of three. The committee con-
sisted of Mr.. Eaton, of Connecticut; Mr..
Barbour, of Virginia, and myself. l acted
as the spokesman. The committee saw Nor
:lson and Carlisle, and requested that the
dnty on wool be raised. After presenting
tho case, Mr.. Morrison would not agree
to DO anything for wool We want
your ultimatum,' said l. Well,
said MI. Morrison, you have it. 1t is not the
intention to restore the duty On wool, and
that you can consider as the ultimatum.
This ended all hope of COMPROMISE, and it
was because of the failure TO make conces-
sions to the wool interest that ten of the
thirteen Democrats in the Ohio delegation
y.ted against Mr. Morrison's bill He told US
plainly he would not permit an amendment
to restore the wool duty of 1867"
I'D the Ohio Democrats know of this con-
frraaca."
@Oh, yes; report was made to all of them.
and such as voted for the bill did it with their
g es open that the wool interest would get no
relief"

WASHINGTON CITY, May 12.--The status
of Hon. John Marshall, late justice of the su'
preme court of the United States, has been
unveiled with appropriate ceremonies. The
statue stands Immediately west of the stair
case leading west from the capitol building,
and is very imposing monument. The GER
emonies were impressive, and were attended
by members of the cabinet, the Marshall
family, members of the supreme court,
the two houses of congress, the
Philadelphia Bar association, trust
ees of the Marshall memorial fund,
congressional committee on the Marshall
statue and invited guests. The order OF ex-
ercises began with music. Rev. DIR. Arm
strong then offered prayer, after which Chief
Justice Waite delivered an address in which
he said: "Chief Justice Marshall died in
Philadelphia July 6, 1885 Next day the bar
met and resolved sthat it be recon-
mended to the bar of the United
States to cooperate in raising monument
to his memory in some suitable place in the
city Of Washington OF the city of Phila-
deiphia, no mere than SO to be received
from any one member. In this way the sum
OF $1,000 was collected. Then the subscrip-
tlons stopped. Not so, however, the work of
the Philadelphia committee, or, as | prefer
to call them, the Philadelphia trustees, for a
few wears ago the last survivor brought out a
package of securities and it was shown
that under their careful management
the s., go of 1885 had grown in 1880 to al
most $50, 900. At this time it was thought
that something might he done by the bar
alone to carry out in an appropriate way til,
original design, but congress, in order thai
tie nation might join the bar in honorins
the memory of great man to whom so much
is due, added another $50, 900 to the lawyers
fund, and to-day congress, as well rs the
bar, has asked you here to witness the un,
yelling of the monument Which has been
erected under these circumstance"
After trielly and eloquently eulogizing the
deceased, the chief justice concluded as fol
lows: Without OBTAINING you longer, l ask
you 10 look upon what is to hereafter repre-.
sent at the seat of government, the reverence
of congress, and the bar of the United States
for John Marshall, the expounder of the con
| stitutiOn."
| After further music and an Grafton by
! William Henry Rawle, Esq, of Philadelphia,
| the ceremonies were concluded with a bene
diction.
