WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, June 15, 1897.
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.
