WASHINGTON, March 2O.-Although
much discouraged over tho prospects Of
their tariff bill, the Democratic reiOrmers
are still struggling to get up measure
that will make some sort Of show in the
House. Free wool Is insisted upon as a
feature for campaign use, and the bill,
when 1t is reported, will contain an item
Of this kind. "Wool in the grease" Is
thought to be the designation that will be
given in the free list, to which will also be
added salt, lumber, fax and hemp. The
report among the Ohio members is that
Hill and Geddes have decided to vote for
free wool.
The tariff Democrats who were snubbed
by Mr.. Morrison In the beginning OF the
session, enjoy his present discontinue
