Hearings Before the Ways and Means

WASHINGTON, January 6-The first
gentleman to appear before the Ways and
Means Committee this morning, was +.
W. Cheney, OF South Manchester, Conn,
PRECEDENT of the Silk Association. While
the Senate bill, he said made an aver
age reduction of ten per cent. on
the duty on elk it was acceptable to
him. Bfitton Richardson, Secretary Of the
same association advocated the imposition
OF compound duty on silk. He said
that shout one-half Of the silk consumed in
this country wss Of American mspufac-
ture. The great obstacle which the Amer
ican manufacturer had to contend against
was the undeIvaluation OF imports. He did
not. believe that any duty could be
laid on raw silk high enough to protect the
silk growers Of this country without Grip.
pling the manufacture. He agreed TO
suggestion made by Mr.. Flower that il
would req1ire duty Of about 200 per
cent. to protect the cocoon raiser and this
duty would necessitate duty OF 500 per
cent. on the finished product.
In the afternoon the sugar interests
were considered, and Gov. Warmotb, of
Louisisns, was the prir cpsl witness. He
said it was strange TO find representatives
Of protection interests in the North and
West crying aloud for "free breakfast
table, which does not mean free pork to

subject" continued the witness, "be-

political campaigns in my State. Every

speeches, have not been as succe sful in

Mr.. LaFollette-"Wouldn't q bounty
suit you?"
Governor Yarmouth "The effect of a
bounty, after years expei lance, would be
the destruction of the sugar industry"
Mr.. LaFollette-"Why SOP"
Governor Warmouth-"Fort the reason
that that the country can see that bounty
is tariff, and if we are singled out for
the receipt OF bounty, demand will
arise for its abolition that cannot be re-
sisted"
Mr.. McKinley-Is the sugar crop OF
Louisiana increasingP
Gov. Warmouth-Yes, it was 30, 600
tons heavier last year than before. II you
want friends in Louisiana. you must not
touch the sugar tariff. We cannot stand
reduction of half csnta pound. 1t
would be ruinous to the industry and
without sugar the city Of New Orleans
would be depor rula!ed and its streets grown
with grass.
Mr.. Warmoth continued his argument
at some length and taid the sugar industry
had not grown more rapidly because Of the
continued attacks on it. Several other
witnesses were heard, but nothing impor-
