WASHINGTON. Feb. i6.--The free wool
bill, as arranged by the Democratic

ready 10 report To the house. With II will
also be reported bills repeating the duties
on binding twine, cotton ties, lumber and
salt. IL has hot yet been determined
which of these bills will be taken up hrst;
but 1t Is understood that the Democratic
members OF the committee think that
binding twine and cotton ties should take
the lead, az the farmers arc more inter.
ested in these measures than in any of the
others.
The provisions OF the free wool bill have
been entirely changed from what they
were as the bill came from the sub-com-
mittee. of which Springer was chairman
The chairman made n vigorous fight to
keep the duties on manufactured woolens
up 10 40 per cent. In this he was sup
ported by Stevens OF Massachusetts,. but
the other Democratic members OF the com
mittee insisted that larger reductions
should be made en- tho different classes Of
manufactured wcolrns. After protracted
struggle over this question the reduction
of duties was fixed at rate ranging from
e5 tn IS per cent, the latter rates being on
bigh-Qrade manufactures.
AZ soon rs these measures have been
laid before the house, Chairman Springer
proposes to take up iron ore, coal and sew.
ersl other articles for the free list lie
will have these bills ready for action by
the time the Others shall have been dis
posed Of They will also report bill re-
