MORRISON on THE TARIFF.


WAsHINGToN, Dec. lin an interview
tonight Col. Morrison said There is just
the same necessity for tariff legislation
now that there was in the first session OF
the present Congress in fact it Is more
urgent as we approach the time when
there will be no debt to which we can apply
the surplus revenue" Morrison thought
the views of the members Of the House had
not changed since they refused at the last
session to consider his tariff reform bill :
his own impression was that those who
opposed the bill at the last session won Ia
continue their opposition in hope that in
some future time they would get revision
more satisfactory to them-a revision in
which. AS in the last one they would con
sent to no reduction of taxation unless
they secured a reduction of the internal
taxes ProtectiOnists, he thought, would
i'll time be compelled to put forward some
such measure in order to reduce the sur
plus.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. IA letter adj
dressed to a prisoner in the Cleveland
WorkhOu>e was opened by an officer Of the
institution, found to contain money and
laid away in the safe until the
prisoners term should expire. When
he was released the management for
got to give him the letter with the
money, and il remained III the safe until
traced through the pOstOtlice, when the
above state of facts was disclosed. The
attention Of the United States authorities
here having been called to this case, the
question has been freely discussed whether
the practice OF opening letters addressed to
prisoners, which Is common to mOstlf not
all, penal institutions, is not a violation of
the United States law concerning the
sauctlty OF the mails. At the request of
the postmaster, Assistant United States
Attorney :. ID. Dodge has given him
written opinion on the subject. 1t is
long review of the laws on this and kin
dred points, and concludes with the state
ment that no prison Official has the right
to open prisoners mail.
