The conservative attitude OF the President on
the tariff is not satisfactory TO the revenue re-
form wing of the democratic part, hut it is
based on n thoughtful view o: the situation 1t
may be true, as TIE low tariff men insist, that
areduction III duties would in many eases re-
snlt in increased revenues from the augmented
importations, but it must be admitted that
such change in policy would be in the nature
ofan experiment.; and with an estimated deficit
staring us in the face this Is scarcely tn. time
for taking risks. Any tariff bill OF the immedi-
ate future must be OF a very conservative char
acter, dealing more with the administration of
fhepresent schedules than representing new and
untried theories OF revenue

Vanderbilt's will is to be read to-day though
its contents may not be published till offered
for probate. IL is thought that Cornelius his
Oldest son, will inherit the bulk OF his fathers
fortune. 1t is not expected that the deceased
left large public requests, but it may be that "a
surprise is in store for the people in that respect.
1t will be remembered that shortly before his
death Vanderbilt gave half million dollars to
the college of physicians and surgeons, and he
may still further endow this or other public
charities in his will. II has been said also that
he designed to present to the city his superb art
