Senators Aiuilu Consider tlic Trenty
Itcliliul Cloned DOCII-H.
WASHINGTON , Feb. 13 The discussion
of the arbitration treaty In the senate to
day took the course of a constitutional de
bate. It was precipitated by the presenta
tion of nn amendment by Senator Turple
of Indiana to the first aitlclo of the treaty ,
providing that nil questions to be sub
mitted to arbitration must bo considered
and "proposed by the treaty-making power ,
the president and the senate. Tills was the
amendment referred to by Senator Sherman
, yesterday , which ho said the committee on
foreign relations v\ould propose While It
was not preponted as a committee amend
ment It has their sanction. Senator Turple
stated that he did not think the amendment
was necessary , but It was presented to meet
the apprehensions of some .senators , who
feared that the ficnato would be stopped
from all participation In the questions aris
ing under the treaty.
Senator Gray of Delaware opposed the
amendment , aylng It extended the powers
of the senate far beyond anything contem
plated by the constitution.
Senator Lodge answered Mr. Gray and
asserted that the amendment would
' I enlarge the powers of the senate , but would
preserve ltn right as a part of the treaty-
making power of the government.
Then there was n general discussion of
the constitutional question , Involving the sub.
Ject of the power of tne senate. Senator
Hoar made an elaborate presentation of the
legal sldo of the question and contended that
the amendment would not enlnrgel the power
of the senate as asserted by Senator Gray.
Senators Lindsay , Teller , Ilacon , Palmer ,
Mills and otlieri' participated In the debate
Ono of the most Important points was made
by Senator Chandler , who paid the effect
of the amendment would bo to compel n
new treaty to bo mad& every time a sub
ject wan to bo submitted to arbitration
Another point raised and discussed
at sr.ino length was whether In case the
Tmplo amendment was adopted If It would
inein that a majority of tbo tenate or two
thirds uf the body uhould pass on the sub
Ject proposed for arbitration. This , In view
of the point mndo by Chandler , becimo
qulto an important factor In the debate
during tlio day
Another point wao raised that under the
amendment presented by Mr Turplo It was
doubtful whether arbitration agreements
would go to tha senate nlono or to congress
as a whole , and It Is supposed that In the
latter event a majority vote would bo nec
essary.
Senator Mllln took strong grounds against
the government of the United States unnec
essarily taking upon Itrolf European entan
glements , and contended for an Independent
American policy. Ho made the point that
the treaty offered no alternative In case
of the refusal of the members of the supreme
premo court to serve as arbitrators.
Senator Palmer contended that there could
bo no HiA In accepting the treaty and Mid
ho had seen enough of war to be willing
to accept any agreement that would tend
to peace.

At 4 o'clock Senator I ! Ill took the floor
and said he thought the senate wns tired
and that It waa tlmo to adjourn. The son-
alow desired to Rive some attention to their
correspondence. They had been tied down
very cloic for a week and were entitled
to a part of Saturday. He moved to ad
journ , but upon the appeal of Senator Sher
man the motion vvns voted down.
Th Ohio senator then dlMirssed the treaty
for a fovv minutes , answering the objec
tions and talking of the advantage of the
general principle of arbitration.
Senator Hill raised the point ot no quo

Sherman may again seek to get consideration

WASHINGTON , Teh. 13. On the opening
ot the senate today Mr. Pciklm , republican
of California , secured the Immediate consider
ation of a Joint resolution directing the secre
tary of thr navy to employ a naval vessel to
convey grain to the famine-stricken people of
India. The resolution recites that famine
and plague are causing great distress nnd
the losi of thousands of lives In India ; that
the famlno can bo In part stayed by supply
ing the surplus products of other localities

tlio wcotcin states have contributed grain

of the imvto place a suitable naval vessel
at the rcrvlco ot the authorities at San Fran-
cluco or to charter a vessel of 1,300 to 1,500
tons for the shipment of contributions. The

WASHINGTON' , Feh. 13. This has been a
financial day In the house. The sundry
clvU appropriation bill wan before that
body for general debate. H was used as a
basis for an attack by the democrats on the
vast appropriations made by this congress ,
which , Mr. Sayers and Mr. Dockery esti
mated , would aggregate U.015,000,000. The
latter paid a high tribute to Speaker Heed
and acquitted him of all responsibility for
the lurge appropriations. Once the gate
was opened , the dcbito naturally drifted Into
politics. The relative merits of the McKln-
ley and Wilson bills , as revenue producers ,
were attacked and defended , the Income tax
decision and Justice Shims' change of posi
tion came In for a. share of attention , and
Mr. Do Armond of Missouri concluded tbo
day with a. brilliant pica for struggling CuUa ,
which won from the house shouts of np-
pioval. An Intimation was made that them
was to bo an attempt to pass the sundry
civil bill under suspension of the rules on
Monday , but Mr. Cannon , who has charge
of the bill , denied this. There Is evidence
of a movement on foot , however , to thus dis
pose of the hill , but at present It seems to
lack the strength to carry It. Some of the
Interests which were not taken care of by
the bill deslro to make tnclr fight to over
rule the committee oil the floor.
The house without preliminary business
went Into committee of the whole and re
sumed the consideration of the sundry hill.
Mr. Cannon , In charge , asked unanimous
consent that the bill bo considered as having
been read the first Unit.
Mr. Hepburn asked If Uio purpose of passIng -
Ing the bill next Mondiy under suspension
of the rules had been abandoned and if this
was a move to procure the flist reading of
the bill to avoid the ckUIclsin made when
the river anil harbor bill was passed last
year without having been read.
CANNON IS NETTLED.
The question evidently nettled Mr. Cannon ,
who replied that he was willing the house
should pursue toward this bill any course the
majority desired. Ho called attention to
the fact that but two weeks of this session
yet remained and there were still to pass ,
in addition to the sundry civil bill , the naval
appropriation bill and the , general deficiency
bill.
bill."But
"But you have not answered my question , "
exclaimed Mr. Hepburn. "Have you aban
doned the purpose of passing this bill under
suspension of the rules ? '
"Tlicre never was any such purpcse , " 6ald
Mr. Cannon fharply.
A compromise was arranged and the readIng -
Ing of the bill dispensed with. It was agreed
there should bo live hours general debate ,
two and a half on each side.
Mr. Cannon made the opening statement
regarding the measure. It carried $50,604-
743 , aboua JS.000,000 ICSD than the estimates ,
and about $17,500,000 more than carried by
the bill for the current year. The increase
wns extraordinary , but , ho bald , eayy of
explanation Of the Increase $15,531,000 was
for rlvor and harbor Improvements authorized
to bo placed under contract by the river
and harbor bill of one year ago , nnd $1,620-
120 for public bulldtngd In course of con
struction , and $709,300 for the cxpcns-a of
the United States courts. He said the com
mittee recommended no appropriation for
Wilmington , Del. , becauws It had bean found
that tie work could not be done for the
fum authorized ( $205.000) ) . The same reason
accounted for the failure to make an appro
prlatlon In thly bill for the Oakland , Cal. ,
improvement , which would ccst $700OOD
more than was authorized. The same was
true of the Kentucky river. The rivr and
harbor bill authorized an expenditure of
$400000. It would require $1,000,000 to com
plete theproject. . Dams two and five of the
Ohio river and Yaqlma Day , Or ? . , wore
nbo omitted from the bill for the name
reason.
SAYCUS SPEAKS.
Mr. Sayers , democrat of Texas , taking
the sundry civil bill as. a text , attacked the
record of this congress In the matter of
extravagance. The appropriations for this
congress would reach the unprecedented
sum of $1,015,000,000. lie asserted that It
would not bo In the power of the repub
licans of the next congress to pass a turlfl
bill that would raise revenue enough to
meet expenditures unless the majority In
the next congress reversed Its policy and
adopted the old democratic doctrine of eco
nomical expenditure of the people's money.
"Did not the Fifty-second congress , when
all branches of the government were demo
cratic , expend as much as the republican
congresses ? " asked Mr. Mllllken , republican
of Maine.
"Not within $3G.OOOQOO of the amount ex
pended by the Flfty-flrst congress , or to
bo expended by the present congress , " re
plied Mr. Sayers.
Ho proceeded to draw a contrast between
the appropriations of 1897 and of 1SS7 to
show their Increase In a decado. The ap
propriations made by the various bills In
ten years had Increased ( round figures )
Postoinco. $18,200,000 ; sundry civil bill , $24-
000.000 ; District of Columbia , $2,171,000 ; mil
itary academy , $151,000 ; diplomatic and con
sular. $278,000 ; pensions , $59.253,000 ; agrl
cultural , $2G01 000leglslatlvo ; \ , executive
and Judicial , $864,000 ; Indian , $541,243 ; naval
$14.072,000 ; river and hoibor , $1,175,000 ; be
sides ? 75,00i)000 nuthorlzcd , and fortifica
tions , $7,377,000. The grand total of ap
propriations In I8S7 was $3S7.330,971 , against
? 51S.SI5,194 , an Increase of $145,924,000. , In
the face of this showing of the vast and
rapid increase Mr. Sayprs appealed to mem-
bora Irrespective of party to take homo the
necessity of retrenchment.
DOCKHHY COMMENDS UEGD.
Mr. Dockery. who followed , said the ex
penditures of this congress would reach
$1,050.000,000 , but he said ho dfslred to ac
quit the speaker of any responsibility. He
commended Speaker Reed for his herolo at-
tltudo against the "riotous assault on the
treasury. " While his party was responsible
Speaker Heed was not entitled to share In
the odium.
Speaking of the future , Mr. Dockery said
ho did not know whether a tariff bill could
bo framed which would raise sulllclent reve
nue to meet these vast expenditures , but
If anyone could frame such a bill It would
bo the "distinguished chairman of the ways
and means committee , Mr. DliiKley. " On
his sldo of the house , however , they did not
bollevo prosperity could bo restored by In
creasing taxation and limiting still further
the volume of money
Mr. Catchlngs , democrat of Mississippi ,
formerly chairman of the river and harbor
committee , entered Into an elaborate de
fense of the policy of the river and harbor
Improvements and specifically a defense of
the Yazoo river and the Mississippi at Vlclcs-
burg.
Ho was followed by Mr Hepburn , who de
nounced the last river and harbor bill , not
because of the appropriations for great na
tional projects , but because the bill was
made the "vehicle of ruthless and reckless
expenditures In 'Insignificant Improvements. '
Ho said Mr CatchlugV defense of the Yazoo
appropriation only provd the truth of the
old biblical proverb , "Tho wicked line , though
no man pursued ! , " Mr , Hepburn also as
sailed what ho termed the extravagant ap
propriations for public , hulldlngtj. lie took
aa an example $800,000 for a building at
Newark , N. J. He thought a good building
could bo erected for one-eighth of that
amount.
The merits of the McKlnley law as a rev
enue producerwere alca brought Into the
debate. Mr. Hopkins , ivpubllcan of Illinois ,
contended that It produced ample levenuo ,
while Mr. McMlllIn maintained that for the
four learn of.Its operation tha deficiency was

Then he drifted Into some comment on the
power of the judiciary and the executive
which led to some remarks on the attitude
of the government toward Cuba that pro
duced several wild outhursts of opplauas
from the members. i
PLEA FOR CUBA.
Ho spoke of the fact that the newspapers
and every sort of Information from Cuba
told of tjio heiolc struggle of that body of
devoted patriots for freedom.
"Yet , " said he , "diplomacy prates of au
tonomy. Autonomy for the bird when the
snake Is ready to strike ; autonomy for the
lamb In the fangs of the wolf ; autonomy
when the maiden Is at the stake and tlio
fagots are burning. If It Is rlcht that we
should Interfere wo should do so on the
high ground that free men should aid free
men In their struggle for freedom.'o lured
those people on In this struggle. Every
breath that blew from these shores taught
them to win their own freedom. Yet while
American citizens are being shot down and
American property Is being destroyed dip
lomacy talks of autonomy I had hoped this
administration would respond to the swellIng -
Ing patriotism In this country and still hope
the Incoming administration will do what
this has failed to dci and that there will
be something after March 4 besides talk of
autonomy "
"What has bccom6 of the resolution we
passed expressing thd sentiment of con
gress' " asked Mi. Grosvpnor.
"I do not know , " .responded Mr. Do Ar
mend "but I do know there Is enough
patriotism In this body jlslng above party
to pass any measure that may be submitted
to It which will adva'nco Cuba's cause. "
Continuing , ho sppks of the libel cf the
Throj Friends as a , plrato as a strange
act In the closing dayn 'of the Nineteenth
century. Tyrants banded themselves to
gether to drlvo back those who attempted
to escape the > eke , ] but tor this country to
become a party to such a doctrine was
shameful. Ho referred to the report that two
ladles had be" ! ! stripped and searched on
board an American Vessel by Spanish ofll-
clala ; as a barbarity and an outrage that had
no parallel In the- most Infamous pages of
history. It might be only -a newspaper
ropoit , ibut ho plape'd * rnoi e reliance In the
reports bf newspaper men 'who risked their
lives to get nt the truth than In the "poor ,
miserable palaver called diplomacy. "
"Whydefend as a goveinment , " ho asked ,
what jou reject as a privilege ? " If this wan
a treaty which permitted such an Indignity
to ladles It should be abolished by the smooth
method ? of the law or the keen edge of
the sword. It mattered little which.

NEW YORK , Feb. 13. The legislative
Joint committee on trusts resumed Ita meet
ings In this city today. Ueforc taking up the
thread of Investigation where It was dropped
on Monday announcement was made that Wil
liam M. Ivlns would be questioned as to the
operations of the United States Hubbor com
pany. George H. McDougall and John E.
Scarlca were both absent , alleging business
as an excuse , and were g e" until Monday
to appear. George H. Moller , for thirty
years a sugar refiner \Vllllainsburg. . was
the first witness examined today. As secre
tary of the North Illver company he had re
ceived from John E. Searai : the check for
the sum for which that tompany sold cut
to the American Sugar Refining company.
"What was the price paid ? " asked Chair
man Le\ow.
"I don't remember. "
"Was It a fair market price ? "
"We thought so or we would not have
made the transfers. "
Witness admitted that hla company was
competing with the Havcmcyers. Ho did not
lemcmbcr that the pike of sugar went up
after the trust was formed.
Mr. Moller was excused and Law son W.
Fuller was placed on the stand. He said that
ho was In the sugar business from 1S51 to
1S73 and was In the real estate business when
the Sugar trust was formed. Mr. Fuller
Knew very little about the value of the In
dividual plants and Mr. Lc\ovv labored with
him for a long time without extracting any
information. Mr. Fuller nnally paid that In
the llvo years after the trubt was formed
the price of sugar was raised .57 of a cent a
pound. This , he declared , had cost tha con
sumers $1,200,000 during that time. Mr.
Fuller based his figures On a circular price
list Issued by Wellett & Gray , who , ho said ,
were an authority.
CONTROLS PRICES.
The number of cmplojcs was decreased
and the refineries were run at a much less
cost. Fuller spoke as an e\pert accountant ,
for he had chaigo of Havcmejor & Elders
affairs for many ypare The trutt , he said ,
absolutely controlled the pries of the raw
material , and , though the price of raw sugar
had gone down , the icfined had ECHO up
This Increase fell on the consumer. Previ
ous to the trust there was a fierce competi
tion among the various refineries.
Edward J. Duggan of Albany , a wholesale
grocer , was the next witness. He had been
in the sugar business for twenty jears. He
did that ho v\ss what was known as a
factor for the Sugar trust. Ilefore the tnut
was formed ho could buy sugar anywhere ,
but after the trust went into operation he
icfused to join the Wholesale Grocers' asso
ciation and then ho could not buy any sugar
at all.
"What reason was given for tint' "
"They said that I was cutting pi Ices and I
was then forced to buy Imported sugar. "
"Then what was said to jou ? "
"Robert S. Russell of this city told me
that I must buy all my sugar of the Amerl-
ca-i company. "
In answer to further questions Mr. Duggan
said the trust had refused to sell him any
sugar and withheld Iho rebateby which a
profit could be made. Ho was a factor for
the company only two months.
FORCED OUT OF BUSINESS.
"Tho trust , " he said , "has forced mo out
of business and I am about to close out. The
factor gets a rebate of three-clghthi of a cent
a pound A grocer cannot llvo unless lie Is a
factor. He would be forced out of busi
ness. You must make au affidavit that you
I will sell the sugar at a certain rate before
jou get the rebate. Ono of the articles In
' the factor's agreement reads : 'None of the
sugar shall be sold by you or bo disposed of
by you at less than our dally quotations Ith
freight added from point to point of sale ,
nor on moio liberal terms aa to credit and
discounts.1 "
Ho made his announcement In Octo
ber , 1S95 , and since he was thrown out he
i has sold very little sugar. When ho sold a
| barrel of sugar ho went out and bought It
i from another grocer.
I "Did you pay more for It than when you
bought fiom the American Sugar Refining
company ? "
"Yes , because I could not get the re
bate. "
Michael Callahan , a broker In Imported
sugar , took the stand next. Ho would not
admit that the trust had controlled the price
of raw material for the Ias > t three years.
"Is not the American Sugar Refining com
pany the only purchaser of the raw ma
terial In this country ? "
"It Ib only a largo purchaser. The com
pany cannot control the market. "
Witness said that ho had eold the trust
300,000 tons of sugar , one-quarter of tlielr
purchases. He admitted that "some people
were hurt by the way the trust manipulated
the market Inbt > ear , " but added that "tho
trust was not responsible for that. " Wit
ness isald that the brokers could personally
speculate In the future demands of the com
pany , but It practically hai > the broker and
speculator In Its ppwor al the llmo ,
. E. S. Dcardsley was then called. Ho H
I also a sugar broker. He said that there
1 was competition In the raw material , and
I ho gave ths names of several competing
{ companies. He soils the trust about ono-
eighth of the raw material It purchares
Ho said that the trust did not fix the price
In tlii1/ country , that It was fixed In Europe
by frca and fair competition.
Chairman Lexow said owing to the ab
sence of Mr. Searlcs the committee would
adjourn un'll Monday at 10 a. m He
added that he did not cnro to change the
line cf Investigation until ho had finished
the sugar Inqulty.

CHARLESTON , Feb. 13. Notwithstanding
Admlial Bui co's carefully arranged plans for
the effectual blockade of Charleston harbor
the dvnan Itt > cruiser Vesuvius successfully
ran the gauntlet of the- North Atlnntlc
snundton last night. The blockaders wcrc-
not aware of the feat of the ocean racer
until 'ho ' pre-arranged signal , .a skyrocket ,
was flted from the deck of the Vesuvius.
Admiral Bunco was sur.mlsed and disap
pointed. He had thought the thing im
possible and was loathe to believe the re-
poit , It Is bald , when it was convoyed to
him. How the blockade was run Is prbcd
ns a secret on board the Vesuvius. Iliu
oiflcers are all boasting of the feat and are
aa much pleased over It as the blockaders
are chagrined. The passage through the
fleet was made as caully as the most ex-
peiionced blockade runner could have niada
It. The trip of the Vesuvius showed Its
nlllcers to bo thoiough naval tactlclaiu.
That Its 'ofllcers got the better of Admiral
Bunco's carefully laid plans Is no reflection
upon his efficiency. The Vesuvius' trip
simply showed that there are American com
manders who nra sufllclently skilled In thn
science of naval Uactics to elude any well
organized cordon of ships stretched before au
Anicrlcin port
The Vesuvius arrived off Charleston yester
day from Lcnguo Island Navy yard near
Philadelphia. It remained at a great distance
outside until after nightfall , when her lights
were extinguished and It began to
maneuver to slip by the fleet The inln and
fog lent their kindly olllccs , and a little bo-
fora 9 o'clock It dropped anchor. The
Vesuvius is f 11 lil to have taken the regular
channel , by 'which It was forced to pass
between the blockading fleet. Strange to say
It was not discovered by the searchlight !
which played over the channel continuously
duilng the night.
The dispatch boat Dolphin , which Is nnld to
havn also given the licet the slip a few
night i ago , Is expected from Jacksonville at
any time. The Cushlng-Erlcsson and torpedo
boat No C aie also on their way to tun the
blockade ,
The pilots and old blockade runners are
greatly oxcltod over the maneuvers of the
squadron They are all anxious to bo given
the opportunity to take a runner out.
