TARIFF QUESTION.
Desire for a Democratic Caucus t.
Discuss the Matter.

Desire for Democratic Caucus to
Discuss the Matter.
WASHINGTON, Nov. lot is difficult
to predict the effect the recent elections
will have on the tariff bill now being
formulated by the Democratic majority
of the Ways and Means Committee.
Chairman Wilson declares the passage of
the very measure now under considera-
ton to be the only thing needful to re-
store public confidence and replace the
Democratic party on the pedestal of po-
liticai supremacy; but many prominent
men in the party do not agree with him,
and these will counsel moderation In
tariff revision.
The moderate-tarif men in the Demo-
cratic party were pretty etfectually
Silenced by the overwhelming Demo-
cratic majorities year ago; but, now
that popular expression seems to have
changed, they have taken heart and pro-
pose to be heard in counsel.
The proposition to put wool. lumber,
iron ore, coal and salt on the free list will
be opposed in some quarters, and by
strong men. There seems to be grow
ing desire on the part of these men for a
caucus of the party to determine on the
best course to pursue before the bill IS
reported to Congress.
Even so eminent leader as Judge
CuIberson, Chairman of the Judiciary
Committee. has requested caucus; and
even Bland of Missouri is credited with a
determination to fight the bill if it places
the articles mentioned on the free list.
The committee is making satisfactory
progress, and expects to have the bill
ready TO report when Congress meets.
The United States Brewers Associa-
ton, through w. Miles, its President, to-
day protested TO the Ways and Means
Committee against any increase on the
internal revenue tax on beer. He main
tanned that such a policy would have the
immediate effect of crushing the smaller
brewers out of existence.
Geary of California was before the
Democratic members of the Ways and
Means Committee this afternoon urging
them not to put a tax on native wines.
He represented that this industry was of
great Importance TO the Pacific Coast, and
he was in earnest in his solicitations that
there should be no tax levied on them.
Hall of Missouri also appeared and
argued III favor of an income tax as a
means of raising revenue.

QUEEN OF TIE NAVY.
The Olympia Makes Over Twenty One
Knots on Her Trial Trip.

The Olympia Makes Over Tweuty-One
Knots Her Trial Trip.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.-The new
cruiser Olympia on her first trip estab-
lished her position as queen of the Unit
ed States navy. The ship made maxi
mum speed of twenty-one and twenty
six hundreths knots, and averaged slight
ly under twenty-one knots on a run of
sixty eight knots, with a heavy sea and a
strong head wind. AS the Olympia was
only expected To make twenty knots, her
builders are very happy over the trial.
and think that when the official Govern
ment trial is made she can be forced up
to twenty-five knots. This would give
the Union IRON Works bonus OF S400,-
600 for exceeding the speed requirement.
The Olympia will return here tomorrow
and will go at once into the dry-dock,
and will be cleaned and scraped prepara-
tory to the official trial on November
18th.
