HILL DISCUSSES TARIFF REVISION
 s-----Hs---~
Connecticut Member of House Ways and Means Commit tee at Conference of
 Leaders.
PUBLIC HEARINGS BEGIN
New Law to Supcrsedc Dinglcy Tarill Law t0 Carry Out Platform
 Pledge VIII Be
 Drawn.

Washington, Nov, 9,--Tho proposed revision of the tariff was discussed at conference to-day of representatives Payne of New York, Dalzcll of Penn sylyanla; Hill, of Connecticut, and Gaines of West, Virginia, leading re- publican members of the house com mttee on ways and means, The con ference was preliminary to the series Of public hearings on the tariff which the committee will hold during the next month, beginning tomorrow morning.
 MT. Gaines discussed tariff revision with William H. Taft at Hot Springs yesterday and 1t Is understood that Nil Taft urged that the committee take such ac-,on as was pledged by the republican party In It's Chicago platform.
 That the committee will draw up a new law to supersede the Dlngley tariff law which will carry out the policy advocated in the Chicago plat form was to-day admitted by one of the majority members, but it Is un- derstood that the committee has con fined its efforts to the consideration of necessary changes in the wording of the law in order to secure it's prop CT interpretation rather than to ques- tions of any changes in rates of duty which has been left for consideration after the hearings have been held,
 The hearing tomorrow will be de- voted to chemicals, oils and paints and about a dozen representatives of manufacturers, trade organizations and other interests have signihed their intention of appearing before the committee. The National Wholesale Druggists association, which displayed lively interest in the hearings which preceded the framing of the Dingley tariff in 1897, will have no represen. tative at the hearing, This is taken to indicate that the wholesale drug gists do not desire any changes in the present tariffs
 Indications are that adjustments in the wording of various paragraphs Of schedule A and more explicit classi. fication of certain articles will be al that the committee will be asked tc do with regard to this schedule. More intricate problems and controversie! of greater importance will be called to the attention of the committee a the hearings for the consideration O other schedules.
