The report of the committee on con tingent expenses, against Senator Till man's resolution for an investigation of the charges that senators had been speculating in sugar stock since the tariff hill had been under consideration, attracted very little attention, because it was known that it would he against the resolution ever since the Republican caucus decided an investigation to he inadvisable. The report argues against an investigation because other investi gations have been barren of results, which is about equivalent to saying that one or two criminals having failed to be convicted, it is useless to bring any more to trial. Senator Tillman lias been dropping hints of sensational in formation in his possession on this sub ject, and there is a rumor that he will make some charges in a public speech that will make an investigation abso lutely necessary. The Republican senators are so har monious that it has been necessary dur ing the past week to hold no less than four caucuses, at every one of which there was red-hot talk against allowing the trusts to dictate their wishes as to the schedule of the tariff lull in which they are interested, and about other tilings which are being crammed down the throats of Republican senators against their own wishes and against the wishes of their constituents. Still they vote as a unit on the floor of the senate. It came out at one of these caucuses that Mr. McKinlcy lias a treaty for the annexation of Hawaii, ready to send to the senate, as soon as the tariff is out of the way. The statement was made to stop the iight that was being made for the abrogation of the recipro city treaty with Hawaii. The minority of the senate committee on finance will have a vote on the tariff amendment prepared by them, which provides for an internal revenue tax for a period of live years of 2 per cent on all estates exceeding the valuo*of $5,000, ex cepting those bequeathed to religious, charitable, educational or like institu tions. It would bo diflicylt to liud an easier way to add a considerable amount t.o the revenues of the country or one that would be less felt by the people, but there are no cuts in it for any trusts, so the trust-bound majority of the senate will most likely vote it down. Nothing could more clearly demon strate tiie selfishness and grab game nature of "protection" as seen by the average Republican senator, than the attempt of Senator Quay to get u good tiling for two or three big concerns which are interested in Cuban and Nova Scotia iron ore, by offering an amend ment to the tariff bill, exempting from the duty of 40 cents a ton. all iron ore imported by manufacturers for their own U9O. These friends of Mr. Quay are i about all the manufacturers in the coun try who import iron for their own use. Senators Cannon, Mantle and Pctti grew and ex-Senator Dubois have been appointed a commission by the executive i committee of the Silver Republican par -1 ty and charged with the duty of visiting Japan and China, and possibly India, for the purpose of investigating the sil ver question in those countries. They will go as soon as congress adjourns. What a small figure consistency cuts with the most prominent Republican senators was shown during the debate which preceded the adoption—by the aid of two Populists, Jones and Stewart, of Nevada; one Democrat, McEnery, of Louisiana, and twenty-nine Republicans —of the so-called "compromise" sugar schedule, which is said to be even more beneficial to the sugar trust than was t he schedule prepared by the Republi cans of the finance committee. Sena tor Calfery, who, although himself a su gar planter, voted and spoke against the sugar schedule, which he declared to be entirely in the interests of the su gar trust, and quoted the attacks made upon the sugar schedule of the Wilson bill by a number of the Republican sup- i porters of the present sugar schedule. These men attacked the Wilson schedule solely because they charged it gave the sugar trust too much, and now they ; have the effrontery to jam through a ! schedule that will give the sugar trust 1 three times as much as it secured under j the Wilson schedule, or rather the | schedule of the Wilson bill, which was j prepared in the senate and was more j ' favorable to the trust than the original , ' Wilson schedule. The sharp rise in the ! stock of the sugar trust shows just what ! the Wall street speculators thought of the '•compromise" schedule. Monday, June 14.
