WASHINGTON, January 20.-Two Of New
York's statesmen are attracting On unusual
amount Of attention just now-Mr. Cox and
Mr.. Hewitt; the latter for what he says he
has not done, the former for what he sayl
be will no. do. Coz does not get much
sympathy for his dissatisfaction with the
duties to which he was assigned by the
Speaker. Congressman Lamb, OF Indiana,
sounded the key note when he said to your
correspondent a day or two ago, "Cox is a
baby. His buffoonery has killed him in
the House. He has had moro opportuni.
ties than any man that l know Of, but has
thrown them away. "A change has come,
however. He'hes been turned down. He
feels sore, and is playing baby. 1gueas
Congress will have to appropriate money
soon to buy him sugar rag" ~,
As for Hewitt, there Is variety OF opin-
ion, tho msjority, however, believing that
he did not Say anything that he intended
should be construed into the expression
that the House was not thoroughly in
earnest 1t is quite probable, however, that
he did say that II 1t had not introduced the
resolution somebody would have offered
one Of more offensive nature, which
would not have expressed the real seuti-
mehts Of the House, but which, might
nevertheless have been forced through. At
least this Is the fact, and II Mr.. Hewitt did
not ssy 30, he might have done 80 with
perfect propriety. All eyes arc on Hewitt
now wherever be goes. As he passes with
bowed head through Gthet lob.
biea or corridors of the Capitol every.
body says; "Tha,'s Hewitt" He is "ageine"
flst. He has, as he always has had, great
difficulty in sleeping, and nothing tells
upon the system more quickly than loss
OF sleep. His hair is very gray and very
thin, bis scregyy full beard is gray Amos,
to whltcnees, he is very much bent, his
eyes are upon the floor Yet when, he
warns up on any subject he can stand
straight enough and look you fairly enough
IN the lace. he has some very peculia,
habits ot speech and conversation. He is
very much averse to "interviews" and iu-
terviewefs, but in private conversation is
a charming gentleman Ga the flor Of
the House hs ID a keen listener, seldom
saying anything, except upon, especially
important topics, such as tariff and inter
national matters. When crossed" by
anybody in speaking, any of his assertions
disputed or his pet, theories, attacked, ,ile
grows exceedingly, nervoue, trembles vio.
lenuy, and seems unable. to- control him
self especially, twisting himself about at
the queerest rate imaginable. When he
speaks his favorite manner is to take his
stand in the ceAt1e OF the nearest aisls,
and crossing bis legs as he stands, sways
back and forth as lie talks.

WASHINGTON, January o0.-The question
es to whether or not we shall have tariff

pass, il it is framed and presented, con.

Now that opportunity is cG'sred the Demo-

there are 80 many timorous souls who ad-
vice moderation, tta. it is difficult to deter
mine what 10 do: o:--"Ihe fact is," said

evening, that nobody can tell what is to
bedone about the tariff yet. I cannot tell
you anything more nbou. II than you know
yourself; YUu know and the world knows
that the House is divided on the etarifr cues

Means. /, do not, believe. there is q man
living who can predict with any certainty

about it. that nothing has, been done and
nothing will be done until the Democrats
hold caucus and agree upon some line Of

"When will that be, Mr. O'Neill?' Z. 81
'"'That,"E he, replied; with laugh, ss"is
hard to say. Perhaps within a week or
two; very soon, at any rate. Whatever is
done must be deus soon, as the pressure
from the commercial element Of the coun.
try for settlement Of the question in one
way oranother gains strength daily"
EDO you think tters will be a 'horizon.
tai reduction Of certain percent on every
thing as predicted by some ?"
NE, l think not. A majority OF the
Ways aud Means Committee and major
ity Of the House favor placing specified ar
ticles on the iree list and reducing others,
but will, think, stoutly oppose any gen
erai segislation and general sweeping re-
duction. Yea, l suppose it will have It's
effect on the Presidential campaign, ,but
