WASHINGTON, January 24.-The mem.
bers Of tho Ohio delegation have aim. st
despaired Of getting any action by the
present Congress looking to restoration Of
tho tariff on wool. The Committee on
Ways and Means OF the House, that is it's
Democratic majority, is decidedly opposed
to any such legislation, and Chairman
Morrison even before the committees were
assigned expressed himself publicly rs op.
possd 10 tue proposition. The following
incident occurred in street car in which
several members Of Congress were riding
from the Capitol, the week before the com.
mittees were announced BY ths Speaker,
though it was generally conceded that Mr..
Morrison would be placed at the head OF
the Committee on Ways and Means. The
question Of restoring the tariff on woel
came up IN conversation, and 1t was stated
that the Democrats OF Ohio wanted action
Of that kid taken. Mr.. Morrison said
that such talk WAS all nonsenst; they wanted
no euch thing, and such etalemenls mis-.
Represented their desires. 1t WAS stated

III Mr.. Cox said so," reioined Mr.. Morri-
son, "he Stated what was not true All
this talk about the Democrats Of Ohio
wanting the tariff on wool restored 10 s!l
nonsense" From this remark, which was
made in the presence OF several members
Of Congress and others in public stree,
car, it ,s inferred that Mr.. Morrison intends
10 uss his Influence as chairman Of the
committee TO crowd ou-any,hing looking
