the much disc. lsed. always disputed
wool tariff, upon which the democrats
maintain the republicans stumbled in
their fall from power last fall and over
which their own party Is divided
brought the tariff fight in the house
today to a climax.
1t was apparent early in the day that
free raw wool as projected in the ad-
ministration bill was in for a three
cornered fight. the republicans de-
manding a duty of about Is per cent,
supported by some of the progressives.
and the wool insurgents of the major
ity demanding a 10 per cent duty,
which they claimed was the original
judgment Of the ways and means COM
mittee until President Wilson took a
hand.
Tho approved by the democratic
caucus after a two days fight and al
most certain to come thru the house
struggle unscathsd. the wool schedule
| brought out the minority oratorical
artillery of the minority and many
predictions that free raw wool would
not stand the fire in the senate but
would come back to the house with a
duty and would receive the solid demo :
cratic support.

Majority Leader Underwood cham
pioned the schedule with all his forces,
on behalf Of the ways and means com
mittee and the president. AS he did
in caucus Mr.. Underwood declared
that the president was as much en-
titled to consideration in making the
tariff as any other citizen and he
lauded his position.
The open secret that the ways and

15 per cent tax on raw wool was freely
discussed in. the debate and that thu

in committee was not an unanimous
one was openly declared and went un.

Many Of the democrats, freed from
the binding rule OF the caucus. were
outspoken in their oppositions to the
schedule. The protesting members
were from Ohio. Texas. Indiana. and
other states Those who voted against
it in caucus but agreed to stand by
the majority were silent in today's dis
cussion.

were suspected of arson but there was
no proof of this. The latest fire was
evidently incendiary, for when 1t was
