WOOL AND REVENUE.

Representative Oscar W. Underwood
chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee. talks rather jauntiy about
revising the wool schedule Of the Payne
tariff law. Tie seems 70 think that a re-
vision measure can be prepared and
rushed through the lower branch OF
Congress in couple Of weeks. He was
thus quoted the other day: "While I
"have no authority 10 say that the wool
growers will not be given hearing II
'is my opinion that they might just as
"well make an assault upon Gibraltar as
upon the House" This may properly be
Interpreted to mean that Mr.. Underwood
expects to remove the duty on wool and
10 reduce very materially the duties on
imported wOollen goods. He has in that
plan the support of Democratic prece-
dent. for the simon-pure Democratic
downward revisionists OF the SD Con
gress made wool free in the Wilson
German bill.
Mr. Underwood will. however, en-
counter some trouble when he attempts
to apply the present Democratic the
Ory Of q tariff for revenue only by dis
pensing with all revenues from imported
woods. There are two tariff-for-reyenue-
only schools in the Democratic party.
The one. represented by Henry Waiter
son. holds that model revenue tariff
could he written on single sheet of
note paper II would impose ad valOrem
duties Oh half n dozen imp0rtations of
wide consumption. and let all other i'm
ports come in free. The other school,
represented by Senator Joseph W. Bailey
and the Quasi-protectionists holds that a
revenue duty Of some sort should be
levied on every article imported and
that no discrimination should be made
between raw materials and manufact-
ures.
II is not surprising, therefore, TO find
"The Houston Post" protesting against
Mr.. J'nGerwoOd's apparent purpose TO
remove the duty from wool. Ii says:
WHY take the duty off wool? If wool
&c IN be selected as one OF the products
fo,. the free list, then why not sugar,

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

A conference took place at st. Petersburg
recently for the purpose Of "devising means
for the prevention of the spread of the
cholera" No newspaper men were admit
ted except one, who was connected with
the "Rossja." the crown organ. Comment
ing on the fact that secrecy is observed
where publicity would be helpful, the
"Rowoji Wremja" says that probably moth
ing of scientific character took place, and
adds: SHOULD the cholera invade Siberia,
Russia will be in a sad plight. With it's
100000 inhabitants. Siberia has only two
hundred physicians. and when one consid-
ers the distances and the difficulties con-
nected with travel the dangers of pesti-
lence can readily be imagined"

you've got new tenor in the choir. What
kind of voice has he? Good?
Jones-Good? | should say SO. It's so
good none of the other tenors will speak

WILL TOMORROW COME?
Tomorrow we will seek relief
or remedy for melancholy;
Well make our present troubles brief:
No more Wen chronicle the grief
Resultant from our folly.
Tomorrow Well bid sorrows soar,
Gust them and let the sunlight enter:
Make positive of joys rich store.
Do better things than done before;
On right our minds We'll centre.
Tomorrow we will prove as wrong
Our thoughts of self And we will borrow

And things will be as they belong

SIXTY Per Cent Of Trust Furnaces Are Nov

Speculations in recent large contracts
tor finished material enabled the steel
companies last week to put more mills
in commission and called for larger
output OF pig metal. The steel corpor-
alton has about go per cent OF furnace
capacity active.
The corporation and some Of the in
dependent companies are indebted to
large miscellaneous export contracts
for much of the increase in active ca
paci.y since Jan. but OF cour se raj
tonnage and more generous orders tor
light msteriai-wire tubes, sheets and
IN plate for domestic shipment have
been Important factors. Some OF the
activity tapped over into the first week
OF February. but during the last ten
days domestic trade in rais. plates,
shapes, bars and fabricated steel has
been very disappointing
Last week railroad orders for equip
ment were only 30. 600 tons rails i.soo
cars. $50 locomotives and 5000 tons Of
bridge material. Fabricated structural
steel orders were less than %, eco tons
Competition was keen and prices low
Even wire products aud tin plate drew
smaller order, hut shipments were
