 The sugar schedule as reported by the majority members of the Finance Committee, and practically as it pass. ed the house, was approved by a vote of 40 to 6. Free raw wool, as submit ted by the majority and just as it passed the house, swept the Senate caucus by vote of II to 6.
 This ratification of the tariff policy or President Wilson, who has insisted upon the wool and sugar propositions, came after long series of develop. ments since the tariff bill passed the house, in which the president had an active part When the fight of the anti-free sugar and anti-free wool Democrats was getting hot, the presi, dent issued statement declaring that any suggestion of compromise on the wool and sguar schedules was abso. lutely out of the question. Later he stirred the administration leaders to action when he made his charge about the existence in Washington of an "iRsldious lobby" investigation of which has brought results regarded as favorable to the tariff bill.
