Senator Sherman Thinks Such
q Change Would Improve

Says, ObstruCt General

Any Tariff Legislation This
Winter Must Include a
Wool Duty.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Senator Sher-
man arrived in Washington this morn
ing and expects to return to Ohio to-
morrow. In an interview he said:
"Times are better than they were.
The business conditions have improved
over what they have been but in it
there is no substantial revival and no
promise Of return of general prosperity
under the present circumstances. In
some branches of business there has
been material improvement, but the re-
vival is NOT general"
"Do you expect congress to do any
thing this winter to improve the situa-
tion?''
"That depends on the president. The
Republicans have complete power in
the house, but uncertain power in the
senate. I think something a be done
but it will depend on the president"
"YOu mean in the way of increasing
tariff revenue?"
Eyes; something could probably be
done in that direction. Whatever is
done must be on protective lines, how
ever, and if there is any tariff legisla-
ton it will include a duty on WOOL"
He would not discuss the outlook for
financial legislation. To the question,
will the Republicans reorganize the
senator" he replied:
1--WE have a strong plurality in the
senate. One vote would give us the or
g~anization. I do not think, however,
that there will be any struggle over the
small Offices. do not think there will
be any combinations to get the organi-
ration. The most probable thing is a
settlement between the Republicans and
Demoorats-a compromise"
