Mr. Mills - Nobody win drive you
from your position Of falsshood
NJ. NILS said that IL had been fre-
qlently remarked that the sugar trust
had procured advantages in The last
Congress- Ths present bill allowed tho
sugar trust 100 per cent more than was
allowed is by the last Congress. and
nov the Republicans attacked the Dem
ocrats about tho advantages procured by
Mr. Havemeyer. Mr.. HavemeYer had
never opened his mouth % him Mr..
Mulsl on the subject OF sugar.
Mr. Grosvenor disclaimed the idea OF
charging that nybody on the ways and
means committee OF the last Congress
had been Improperly approached. His
charge was that the Democratic party
protested 20 the country that the pro-
tective tariff stimulated trusts, and
that when that party had an op-
portsnity 20 strike blow against the
moss dangerous trust in the country il
did not do so. He did not thank any
gentleman 20 apologize for that utter
Rnce. The frst bill ever aimed az trusts
was named by a Republican Senate,
passed By a Republican House and
signed By a Republican President; and
s. did not lie IN the mouth OF snybOdy y

upholding the trusts OF the country.
