these facts. Another meeting of the members

COL. sCREvEN AT WASHINGTON TO

Somewhere between 30 and so per
Cent,-The High Tariff of the Pres
ent.
WASHINGTON, Fob. 26.-Col. john
Screven, of Savannah, arrived tonight to
confer with the Democratic members of the
Ways and Means Committee tomorrow
under an engagement made by Representa-
tive Norwood on behalf of the rice growers
of Georgia about the proposed reduction in
the duty ON rice. The Democratic members
of the Ways and Means Committee early
determined TO include a cut in the duty on
rice among the reductions to be proposed in
their bills. As one of them said to-day:
1--WE saw that it would never do to
propose a general reduction in the tariff
duties and leave the duties on rice, in soma
cases llS and in some l34 per cent, un-
touched, more especially as rice is dis
tinctively Southern product and all article
Of food in common use. Like the duties on
sugar the duties on rice must be reduced.
The only question is how much. On this
point the majority Of the committee have
not finally determined. 1t may be only q
cut of 20 per cent. and it may be 80 per
cent.

MORRISON FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
1t Would be a Stepping Stone to the
Presidency in 1892.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.--Col VIM. r. Nor
rison is now regarded among well-informed
Democrats as the man most likely to be
given second place on the ticket with Cleve-
land. No man in the country could better
stand with Cleveland on the tariff reform
platform which will be adopted at st. Louis.
Besides his tariff reform record, Mr. Morri-
son has a fino military history and great
personal popularity in the West. His dis
trict is right across the river from st. Louis
in fact, East st. Louis is part of it. He
has more friends in st. Louis than in any
other city.
WILL BE RENOMINATEO.
He will probably be renominated for Con-
gress just before the convention meets
Col. Morrison is not candidate for the
Vice Presidency, but his friends believe that
they would advise him to take it as a step
ping stone to the Presidency in 1892. They
feel that inasmuch as Cleveland's election
would be insured by Mr.. Morrison's nomi-
nation, the Democratic party would natu-
rally turn to him next time, even if he were
not the very representative of tariff reform.
