TARIFF CAUCUS MEETS
REPUBLICANS CONFER BEFORE
MEETING OF FULL COMMIT TEE.
Wheeler Says That After Hearings Bill
Min De More Extreme Than
That OF 1890.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Republican
members of the Ways and Means com
mittee held another conference this
morning 1t was thought yesterday that
the Democratic members Of the commit
tee would be present this morning and
would be formally notified Of the propo-
sition to proceed with the preparation
Of the new tariff bin. 1t was decided,
however, to postpone the meeting Of the
full committee until next week.
The. conference lasted about two and a
half hours. They discussed at considera-
bic length the question of the hearings
to be given by the full committee. The
general opinion was that a fixed pro-
gramme for hearings Of the several sched-
ules should be arranged beginning on
December Is. The question of whether
certain schedules will be left as they are
or restored without argument to the rates
Of the Mckinley law will be matter for
future consideration. In case it is de-
cided to allow certain schedules to stand
they will not be included in the pro-
gram Of hearings. The Democratic mem
hers have as yet, held no conference, but
they may ask that certain time be allow.

date was decided upon. Dates from Fri

We're suggested, the recess to last until
the Monday after new year.
General Wheeler, of Alabama, one Of
the Democratic members of the commit
tee, to-day commented upon the reported
intention OF the Republicans to give hear
ings coupled with the report that the
new bill was to be a moderate protective
measure"
II do not doubt it is the present pur-
pose Of the Republican members to
frame "a moderate bill,' said he, shut

pear will ask for the highest possible
schedules, they will aver that they cam
not prosper with less, and they will de-
mand them on the ground that the result
Of the election pledged the party to ade-
quate protection to American industries.
The consumers will not be heard. The
result will be that no matter how anxi-
Gus or honest the Republicans may be in
their efforts to frame moderate bill they
will yield first here and then there to the
demand for high schedules and once hav-
ing yielded they will no more be able to
stem the tide than they would to stop

most intimate friends, to-day spoke of
Goyernor-elect Russell as promising
Senatorial possibility Judge Russell
has always leaned to the Populsts, and
his avowed opposition TO the doings of the
Southern Railroad in North Carolina is
said to meet with Senator Buffers hearty
approval. 1t is said, that Russell is a
better lawyer, and an ADLER man than
Mott, who has been supposed to be But
ler's choice, and that the latter would
gladly have him for his colleague. 1t is
also said that Russell could draw more
Republicans from Pritchard than Skin

1t is evident that Senator Butler will
not submit to the interference of Mark
Hanna and the attorneys of the South

North Carolina, and since Gov. Russell
stands WITH him on these points, it is
believed that Russell is in the line Of

In spite OF the representations made to

The Steamer Appears of Valencia, but is

Madrid, Dec. 12.-It now transpires
that the semi-official statement published
by the government organ lei Impartial, on
November 8, that the American Cuban
filibuster steamer Laurada, recently
loading at Messinn, Italy, would not
touch at Valencia, Spain, but that her
cargo was intended for Valencia, Vene-

ing any excitement which might have
been aroused in Spain upon the subject.
The circulating Of the report that the
Laurada's cargo was intended for Valen-
Ella, Venezuela, and not Valencia, Spain,
had an additional object in view. Be
sides calming the feeling aroused at
Valencia by the announcement that thu
noted filibustering steamer was putting in

shipment Of the cargo to Venezuela was
planned for the purpose Of giving the
Laurada people an opportunity to recon
