    THE SUGAR CASE
EX-SENATOR MANDERSON OF NE
BRASKA HEARD.
WHAT HE TOLD THE COMMITTEE
The Trust's Scheme to Kill the Beet
Sugar Industry—The Proposed Cu
ban Reduction Has Already Closed
Factories.
WASHINGTON. May 17.—The sen
ate committee on relation with Cuba
heard John Oebler of New York City,
who printed the publication Facts
About Sugar compiled by Oscar W.
Donner, and consisting of reprints
from newspaper articles.
Mr. Oehler said that In January last
he was employed by Mr. Donner, ad
vertising agent of the Sugar trust, to
print this document, for which he re
ceived $750. The edition numbered
250,000 copies.
Ex-Senator Charles F. Manderson
of Nebraska said he had acted as le
gal adviser of the general manager
of the American Beet Sugar company,
E. C. Howe, and the president of the
Standard Beet Sugar company. Hoy
wood G. Leavitt He produced two
forms of contracts which these com
panies had entered Into during the
summer of 1901 with the jobbers on
the Missouri river, one of which con
tained a provision that shipments
would be billed at 10 cents per hun
dred pounds less than the American
Sugar company's open price for stand
ard fine granulated that might bo in
efTect In Kansas City on date of ar
rival of their sugar, but that at no
time would the price excoed $5.37. In
the other form the words “bona fide
price" were Inserted.
Mr. Manderson said the American
Sugar Refining company notified the
Jobbers having contracts with the beet
sugar companies at Missouri river
points that they would furnish them
sugar at $3.50 per hundred, and said
ho was called on to decide what to do
under the contracts referred to. He
had discovered that this sugar only
would be given in very small quanti
ties. The American Beet Sugar com
pany, he said, sought to buy at $3.50
per hundred, but was refused. The
established market price, he said, con
tinued at $5.12V4; and tho special
price was limited to a few people,
which caused him to decide that it
was not an "open" price nor a “bona
fide" price, as contemplated by the
beet sugar contracts, and that the beet
sugar companies were not required to
■ell at $3.40. Mr. Manderson said the
American Sugar Refining company's
cut would have broken down the beet
Bugar industry in the west if the beet
sugar people had been unable to com
mand the money to store their pro
duct.
Mr. Manderson contended that every
tariff bill and the government experi
ments have been invitations to em
bark in the beet sugar industry.
“To injure it,’ said he. “by direct
or indirect methods is to my mind
as objectionable, if not to say as crim
inal a blow as this country could re
ceive.”
* The proposition for a 20 per cent re
duction, he said, had caused many
prospective beet sugar factories on
arid land in the west, to be abandoned
temporarily.
Answering a question by Senator
Platt, Mr. Manderson said that if we
Americanize Cuba either by annexa
tion or any other means there would
be a rise In the price of labor there
which would raise the cost of sugar
production.
PEACE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN.
London Newspaper Says Attitude of
Boers Justifies Assertion.
LONDON, May 17.—The Daily Mail
this morning says It understands that
sufficient Indications of the attitude
of the Boer leaders at Veerenlng have
transpired to justify tile assertion that
peace in South Africa is absolutely as
sured.
A powerful factor in attaining this
result, the paper says, has been the
British generosity in the. matter of
farm rebuilding, for which, it believes,
about £6.000,000 has been granted.

Murder of Iowa Girl.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo., May 17.—The
body of Miss Emma Moore, a beauti
ful young woman of Clarinda. Ia., was
found in a ravine near that place,
with a pistol bullet in her brain. Wil
liam Lucas, a well known young man
of Clearmont, la.. Is under arrest.
The couple were sweethearts and left
the home of Miss Moore Wednesday
evening for a drive. The next seen
of the woman was when her body was
found.
PYRES ARE FED WITH TAR.
Bodies at St. Pierre Burned in Great
Fires Which Light Up Island.
NEW YORK, May 16.—In the de
stroyed city of St. Pierre the work
on the ruins is being continued in an
unsatisfactory manner, says a Fort de
France dispatch to the Herald.
The dead are being burned, the
pyres being red with petroleum and
tar. Great fires are kept going, which,
at night, light up the entire island,
and which, being seen at St. Lucia,
led to the belief that Fort de France
had burned.
Although thousands have been burn
ed, many still remain to be cremated.
Searchers, while walking through the
ashes, often step upon what seems to
be a charred pillar of stone, only to
learn as it yields gruesomely under
foot that it is the trunk of another
unfortunate.
Some of the walls of the houses
that still stand crumble and fall at
touch. Some Idea of the terrible heat
that poured down from Mount Pelee
may be had when It is known that the
Iron rollers of the Prlnelle Sugar mills
were melted as though they had been
put through a furnace.
The Danish war ship Valkyrien has
returned from Fort de France, says

previous reports of having steamed
through countless floating bodies on
the way to Fort de France.
PARIS IS UNMOVED.
Little Attention Paid to Disaster in
West Indies.
PARIS, May 1G.—The American vis
itors here cannot understand the
seeming Indifference of the Parisians
in regard to the Martinique disaster.
Beyond the half-masted flags over the
government offices, there are no signs
of public mourning. The people flock
to their usual resorts, attend the races,
All the theaters, none of which have
been closed, no “extras" are issued
and there Is no demand for them.
But the evening papers, containing
bulletins of the automobile races, are
eagerly purchased.
The various funds being raised for
the relief of the Martinique sufferers
now only total 303,000 francs. Includ
ing the large subscriptions of the
foreign potentates and the 20,000
francs from the municipalities. The
provinces seem more interested in
the disaster than the capital. They
are actively organizing committees to
raise funds and there is much mourn
ing at the seaports whose ships were
destroyed.
IOWA LIQUOR LAW INVALID.
Supreme Court Holds Mulct Law to
Be Unconstitutional.
11ES MOINES, la., May 1G.—The
supreme court ruled today that the
sale of liquor to “bootleggers" and
other resident violators of the Iowa
law cannot be prohibited when the
sales are made by agents 'of non
resident dealers.
The court holds that the section of
the Iowa liquor law known as the
"mulct law,” prohibiting such sales,
is in conflict with interstate com
merce laws and is therefore unconsti
tutional.
The decision is rendered in the case
of the state against Pat Henappy of
Jefferson county and is reversed in
favor of the defendant, who was agent
for an Illinois liquor house, soliciting
orders at Fairfield, which were filled
by shipment direct to the purchaser.

Large Area on East Coast is Com
pletely Desolated by Eruption—De
tails of Calamity Defy Description—
Reports that the Lava Still Flows.
LONDON, May 15.—The governor of
the Windward islands, Sir Robert
Llewellyn, telegraphs to the colonial
office from the island of St. Vincent,
under date of Tuesday, May 13, as
follows:
“I arrived here yesterday and found
the state of affairs worse than has
been stated. The administrator’s re
port shows that the country on the
east coast between Robin Rock and
Georgetown was apparently struck
and devastated in a manner similar
to that which destroyed St. Pierre,
and I fear that practically all living
things In that radius were killed.
Probably 1,600 persons lost their lives.
The exact number will never be
known. Managers and owners of the
estates, with their families, have been
killed. A thousand bodies have been
found and buried. One hundred and
sixty persons are in the hospital at
Georgetown. Probably only six of this
number will recover.
iuu uuiaua ui iuc uiaaaitT aic
harrowing for description.
“I got, at St. Lucia, a coasting
steamer, which is running up and
down tlie Leeward coast with water
and provisions. Twenty-two hundred
persons have received relief.
“I have asked for medical officers
from Trinidad and Grenada. All the
neighboring British colonies are as
sisting generously. Every effort is be
ing made to grapple with the awful
calamity.
“All the beat sugar estates in the
carrlbean country are devastated and
the cattle are dead.
The eruption continues, but is ap
parently moderating.
“Anxiety is still felt. All the offi
cers and residents are co-operating
with me. The women are making
clothing.”
Sir Frederick M. Hodgson, the gov
ernor of Barbadoes, forwarded to the
colonial office the report of the col
onial secretary, who has just returned
from a visit to St. Pierre, Martiniuqe.
It confirms the worst accounts of
the disaster. The secretary compares
the ignited matter, which destroyed
everything within an area of ten miles
long by six wide, to burning wax. He
adds, significantly, that the services of
doctors are not required, as there are
no wounded persons.
Governor Hodgson estimates that
2.000,000 tons of volcanic dust fell on
the island of Barbadoes.
WASHINGTON, May 15.—The navy
department received a numfber of
messages bearing on the Martinique
disaster. Lieutenant B. B. McCor
mick. commanding Potomac, sent the
following from Fort de France, dated
Tuesday:
“Inhabitants of St. Pierre and six
teen vessels totally destroyed. Sur
rounding villages uninhabitable. Isl
and covered with destruction. Ashes
within five miles of Fort de France.
Provisions needed for 50,000 refugees
within ten days. Donated extra stores.

GRAPHIC STORY OF TRAGEDY.
Surviving Officer of Roraima Talks of
St. Pierre Disaster.
NEW YORK. May 14.—James Tay
lor, who was one of the officers of the
Roraima, the Quebec line steamship
which was destroyed in the harbor of
St. Pierre, gives a graphic story of
the tragedy of last Thursday to the
Herald from St. Kitts, island of St
Christopher, B. W. I.
“We experienced the greatest diffi
culty in getting into port," said he.
“Appalling sounds were issuing from
the mountains behind the town, which
was shrouded in darkness. All the
passengers were up and some were
trying to obtain photographs.
"Suddenly I heard a tremendous ex
plosion. Ashes began to fall thick
upon the deck, and I could see a black
cloud sweeping down upon us. I
dived below and, dragging with me
Samuel Thomas, a gangway man and
fellow countryman, sprang into a room,
shutting the door to keep out the heat
that was already unbearable.
The ship rocked, and I expected ev
ery moment that it would sink. Out
side I heard a voice pleading for the
door to be opened. It was Scott, the
first officer, and I opened the door and
dragged him into the room.
“It soon became unbearably hot and
I went on deck. All about were ly
ing the dead and the dying. Little
children were moaning for water. I
did what I could for them. I obtained
water, but when it was held to their
swollen lips they were unable to swal
low because of the ashes which clog
ged their throats. One little chap
took water in this method and rinsed
out the ashes, but even then could not
swallow, so badly was his throat burn
ed. He sank back unconscious and a
few minutes later was dead. All aft
the ship was afire, and from the land
came drafts of terrible heat. At last,
when I could stand it no longer, I
sprang overboard. The water was al
most hot enough to parboil me, but a
wave soon swept in from the ocean,
bringing with it cool water.”
NEBRASKA CROP BULLETIN.
Winter Wheat Conditions Improved
Greatly During Past Week.
United States department of agricul
ture, climate and crop bulletin of the
weather bureau, Nebraska section, for
the week ending May 14, says:
The last week has been warm, with
generous showers the first (lay of the
week. The daily mean temperature
has averaged about 2 degrees above the
normal.
The rainfall occurred on the first
days of the week and generally
amounted to between 0.75 of an inch
and a ninch.
The past week has been a favor
able one for the growth of all vegeta
tion. Winter wheat has improved
very much in condition. In a few
southern counties the rain was too
late to benefit the earlier fields, and
the cr^p now promises less than half
the average crop. In a large part of
the winter wheat belt, however, the
prospect is that with favorable weather
from nearly three-fourths to a fall
crop will be realized. Grass in pas
tures and meadows has improved, but
is still decidedly below the average
condition at this time of year. Oats
have grown well during the week.
The soil is in excellent condition and
corn planting has progressed rapidly.
The early planted is coming up nicely.
Fruit trees are blossoming very fully
in northern counties; cherries are set
ting poorly in southern counties.
Railroad Men Subpoenaed.
CHICAGO, May 14.—Interstate Com
merce commissioners and others con
cerned in the inquiry into the alleged
untair rates on live stock and packing
house products took steps today to
prevent the absence of witnesses by
serving subpoenas on numerous rail
road officials. The meeting of the
committee to hear the complaint filed
on behalf of the Chicago Live Stock
exchange will be held in Chicago
Thursday. The railroads complained
of are those running from Chicago to
Missouri river points. Notice of the
proposed meeting of the commission
was served on the officials of these
roads some time ago. Postponement
was asked, but was denied.
Iowa Postoffice Robbed.
DES MOINES, la., May 14.—The

understood that with the departure of
Dr. Roersingh the bulletins will be
discontinued. Messages of congratula

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations from South Omaha
and Kansas City.
SOL'TH OMAHA.
CATTLE—There was a very light run
of cattle, but the supply for the four
days of this week is considerably in ex
cess of the same days of last week, but
smaller than for the same days of last
year. Beef steers again made up the
bulk of the offerings and there were a
number of bunches that were good
enough to bring right around $7.00. Any
thing carrying weight and flesh was in
good demand at fully steady prices and
practically everything answering to that
description was out of first hands in good
season. The cow market was also in
good shape and anything desirable met
with ready sale at good firm prices. The
same as was the case with steers, the
common kinds did not move quite as
freely, but still they brought just about
the same prices they did yesterday, and
everything was out of first hands in good
season. Stockers and feeders were scare
today and the better grades were picked
up freely at good firm prices. The com
mon cattle were neglected, the same as
they have been all along, but there was
no particular change today in the prices
paid.
HOGS—There was the heaviest run of
hogs of the week, but still the supply for
the four days is less than for the same
days of last week or of last year. The
market at all other points was quoted
lower this morning and as a result prices
eased off a little here. As a general thing
the good weight hogs sold right around a
nickel lower, though the decline was
rather uneven. The light hogs were
harder to dispose of than usual and until
the last end it was almost impossible for
sellers to get even a bid on such kinds.
The good weight hogs sold largely from
$7.10 to $7.25 and as high as $7.30 was
paid. The medium weights went from
$7.00 to $7.10 and the lighter loads sold
from $7.00 down.
si-i EEC-mere were only aoout tnree
cars, go that a fair test of the market
was not made. The quality of what few
were here was rather common. Clipped
wethers sold at $5.50 and another bunch
brought $3.10. About all that can be said
of the market is that it was about steady.
Prices have fluctuated back and forth to
some extent so far this week, but as
compared with the close of last week
there is not much of change. Good stuff
has been very scarce and in fact there
has been practically nothing finished on
the market ail this week.

TELLS STORY OF RESCUE,
Many Natives cf Martinique Saved
by Danish Cruiser.
ST. THOMAS, D. W. I., May 17.—
The Danish cruiser Valkyrien has re
turned here from Martinique. The
correspondent here of the Associated
Press has had an interview with one
of the Valkyrien’s officers, who said:
‘‘We left St. Thomas the afternoon
of May 9. The next day, when sev
enty miles from Martinique, the fall
ing volcanic ashes became trouble
some. We approached the island and
discovered St. Pierre to be burning.
We made signals to the shore, but no
replies were received. We then lay
off for the night and witnessed a re
markable spectacle of fire and light
ning. Ashes fell and detonations were
heard.
In the morning we saw the French
cruiser Suchet and went nearer the
shore. The ashes became dense as
we approached, and many dead bodies
were floating on the sea. They were
burnt and swollen. As we approach
ed St. Pierre we saw the town was
covered with ashes. We then joined
the cruiser Suchet and the cable re
pair ship Pouyer-Quertier and togeth
er went toward Le Precheur. The
rain of ashes was heavy and shrouded
the Suchet. Soon the atmosphere
cleared up and we ran close to Le
Precheur, and then to Hameau des
Sabines. The boats from all three
ships were put overboard and the res
cue of people from the shore commenc
ed at 11 o'clock in the morning. We
were all covered with gray ashes, our
eyes were weeping, and the heat was
intolerable. Several big pans on
board our ship were filled with cook
ed food and placed on deck; they were
soon surrounded by a crowd of chat
tering natives.”

Santa Fe Buys Oil Lands.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 17.—The
Santa Fe railroad, through President
Ripley, has completed the purchase
of a petroleum plant and oil lands in
the Kern river district. The price
paid is about $1,250,000. By this deal
the railroad increases its supply of
fuel oil many thousands of barrels per
month. The Santa Fe is using as
fuel for its locomotives 118,000 barrels
of oil a month. The Southern Pacific
is using 50,000 barrels.

the world the other day from an artis

Bought to hide behind a green patch. To
commiserating inquirers the gallant
sea hero explained that it was a cork
that did the damage—a coarse, rude,
popping cork that flew into his eye
while he was dining at the Waldorf
Astoria. With much detail, Lieutenant
Hobson further explained that it was
in the neck of a ginger ale bottle, that
the cork passed the previous period of
its existence. The cork, by the way,
was secured by one of the Daughters of
the War of 1812 as a souvenir.
The Bankers Heard Jasper.
While the American Bankers’ asso

warded by having such a congrega

sisting of the bankers, with their fash
ionably dressed wives and daughters.
He was listened to with close atten
tion, though his hearers at times had
some difficulty in restraining a tenden
cy to smile at his quaint sayings.
