THE WOOL INTERESTS.
Some Difficulty Experienced in secur-
Ing Harmony of A ction.

Some Difficulty Experienced In secur-
Ing Harmony of Action.
The committees appointed at the Wool
Growers and Dealers Convention, held In
this city last December, met yesterday at
the Riggs House to formulate some uniform
course looking to tariff legislation protect
ing the wool interests.
The committees consist of thirteen dele
gates from the Wool Manufacturers Asso-
citation and five members each Of the Wool
Growers and Wool Dealers Associations.
The committees have quite contract on
hand to harmonize the several conflicting
interests, as the manufacturers want free
wool and higher tariff on manufactured
worsted goods, while the growers insist on
the present tariff on raw wool, or else no
tariff on anything. As the proportion of
manufacturers to growers Is as one to
hundred, the growers propose to go as they
please.
Each committee held secret session In
the forenoon, and all met In joint session
at 2 o'clock, and proceeded to permanent
organization, as follows: President, George
J.. Converse, Ohio; first vice president, i.
ii. Ammidown, Utica, N. y; vice presi-
dente, John Mcdowell, Theodore Justice
w. L. Cowdin, L. d. Wright, A. Q. Miller,
John Phillips, ir., and W. g. Benedict; sec
retary, ii. l.. James; assistant secretary
William Batteson. BY resolution adopted
early In to days session tile proceeding OF
the conference will not be made public eX.
cept by direction of the whole conference.
The afternoon was spent considering plans
OF defense, but an adjournment was had
until 10 O'Clock to-day, without reaching
any conclusion.
Last evening the wool growers and wool
dealers met and formulated tariff basis,
and will submit II to the convention to-day.
II satisfactory the manufacturers will accept
1t. 1t Is highly, probable, however, that
owing to the conflicting interests involved
an agreement will not be reached until the
last of the week.
In conversation with q prominent Phila-
delphia manufacturer last evening, 1t was
learned that so far perfect harmony has
characterized the meetings.
During the evening the members congre.
gated in little groups In the rotunda of the
Riggs House discussing the situation, and
ton.
"Why," said prominent manufacturer,
who can write his check for millions,
"President Cleveland is utterly mistaken as
to the tariff. He thinks things will be
cheaper. Now, I'll just give you one IN
stance, and 1t will stand as an illustration
for all interests. Take the article nickle,
pound, and 1t sold for $4 a pound here
and 50 a pound in England. As soon as
the duty was off England sold It here at So
pound, and forced our people to sell 1t at
SO also, finally resulting, in the case
of one manufacturer, in closing up his
works, selling his plant, and the discharge
OF 800 employees, earning from SIS week
upwards. 1t was insanely Supposed tina,
the price would remain at So, but, after
American industry had been crushed, Eng.
land promptly put the price up to $4,where
1t is to-day. The great advantage Of pro-
lection is simply and solely that It gives
