Tariff Legislation.

MR.. HEWITT'S CUSTOMS ADMINISTRATION BILL.
LIKELY TO BE REPORTED FROM THE WAYS
AND MEANS COMMITTEE.
The House ways and means committee is
still considering the Hewitt customs admins
tratiOn bill. This will be the tariff bill the COM
mittee will endeavor to put through the House.
The tariff part of the bill has been practically
completed, and when the administration bill is
finished it will be tackled on and the bill will be
ready to report to the House. The administra-
tion bill occupies some twenty-eight pages and
consists largely of definitions by which the
customs officers are to be guided in the collec-
ton of duties. It is very intricate to the COM
prehension of one not familiar with the work.
ings of the customs service. The tariff feature
OF the bill will consist of a very short free list
This will be constructed in accordance with
Mr.. Hewitt's idea OF free raw material, with
the probable exception of iron ore. Wool will
be the principal article on the free list; then
will follow lumber and salt and certain drugs
and dyes used by manufacturers. In making
up this list the committee has been guided by
the purpose of making the bill as strong as pos
sible in the House without sacrificing the great
tariff reform principles. They expect to have
the bill ready in a short time now, and hope to
get 1t through the House.
, The Morrison bill as introduced in the House
will not come out of the committee.

HIS CONDITION PRACTICALLY UNCHANGED
SINCE YESTERDAY.
At IL o'clock this morning DR.. Lincoln said
there was no change in Secretary Manning's
condition, except perhaps he was q little more
restless early this morning than usual. "That
was easily made right" said the doctor, "and
he is now resting comfortably. His condition
is practically the same as yesterday"
The Secretary's speech, wildcat times some
what husky, is said to be ordinarily quite clear
family, 1.-THE Secretary told me the whole story
of his attack, to the minutest details, and only
rested for a very few minutes during the re-
cital. He said that the first sensation that came
upon him was dizziness, when he fell to the
floor. He retained partial II not complete con-
seriousness through it all, and commanded that
no physician be summoned. That was a great
mistake the speaker continued, "for
in their zeal TO relieve him the
messengers gave him a stimulant

1t out to quiet O member OF the family or his
physicians, but his right leg bothers him vet:
he does not have much control over that, but
manages to turn himself unaided either to the
right or left side. His hearing is as acute as
dozes off In the midst Of q conversation, but
when he has rested q bit he takes up the con-
versatiOn just where he left OF and continues.
He complains of being dizzy at times, but that,
