THE WILSON TARIFFS BILL.
Dissatisfied Democrats viii Pool Issue
and Oppose 1t.

Dissatisfied Democrats Viii Pool Issues
and Oppose 1t.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-About dozen
or fifteen of those Democratic repre-
tatives, who think industries in their
sections have been rather unfavorably
treated in the preparation of the new
tariff bill, had conference to 6ay to
talk matters over and agree upon some
plan by which they can secure amend
ments to the proposed tariff law in the
interest of their several sections
The meeting was informal, and was
devoted to a general discussion Of the
sections of the bill which have been
made public. All Of those present had
some grievance, and no special atten.
ton was given to any one item or
schedule. Each member told, in gen
eral way, the effect the proposed
changes would have on those interests
here presented, and it was decided to
pool issues and stand together, and
help one another as much as possible
when the measure was discussed in the
House and vote on it's provisions when
taken
While this agreement was made and
general understanding as to proceed
ure agreed upon, the dissatisfied Nom
bers could not tell exactly what they
would ask, as the bill has not been
officially reported yet, and is still sub
ject to change by the committee. There
is, moreover, still a possibility that be
fore reporting the measure to the House
the committee may consider the sug-
gestions made by some OF the dissatis-
fed brethren and grant their request

Mrs. Charles Camp Had Hers Stolen on
Jefferson Street Yesterday.
While Mrs. Chas. Camp was walking
up Jefferson street yesterday afternoon
about 3 o'clock. near the corner of Bullitt
avenue, a young man suddenly sprang
towards her and snatched from her
hand her pocketbook, and hurriedly ran
towards the Roanoke and Southern
depot. Fortunately tho pocketbook
only contained small sum of money in
change and 4 photograph.
Mrs.. Camp describes the thief to be
young white man, apparently about %
years old, dressed in a light suit of
clothes and SLOUGH hat.
The police force were Immediately
notified by telephone, but were unable
to locate the culprit. This is one of
the most daring robberies over COM
mitted in this city, and was even moro
bold than the theft of Miss Lamar's
pocketbock on Church avenue last
Saturday.
