SUGAR.
why it should be Put on the Free Lis

Why it Should be Put on the Free List.
New YORK, October 6.-Before the Tariff
Commission to-day Mr.. Ira Bursley, OF New
York, a commission merchant, made an
argument in favor of putting sugar on the
free list 1t now paid a revenue of about
$40, 100000. The principal object in
taxing it was to encourage the
growth of sugar in Louisiana.
Louisiana produced only about 10000
tons year. on which her profit would not
exceed a million Of dollars, and for that the
people were taxed to the amount of $40 900,
900. He suggested that It would be better
to provide that million dollars for Louis
lana in the river and harbor bill.
Mr.. Boteler asked If admitting sugar free
would not destroy the sugar culture in
Louisiana.
Mr.. Bursley admitted that 1t would, but
he proposed to take up a collection for
Louisiana In some other way.
Mr.. Osgood Welsh. OF Wall street, com
mission merchant, coincided with the views
expressed by the preceding witness, and
added that of every dollar paid in the United
States for sugar thirty cents was tax.
