Jersey. Regarding His Dealings with The
Sugar Trust-Understood That CI.ve- /
land and Carlisle Are in Perfect Ac-
cord.
Special Correspondence to THE GIOBFl
WAsHINGToH, June The sugar
schedule and the bribery investigation
are uppermost in the minds Of the sena-
tors. Although the Senate investigating
committee has adjourned over until
Monday, the all absorbing topic will not
be allowed to rest TO day. Senator Hill
spoke in the Senate this morning upon
his resolution directing the committee
to hold its sessions with open doors, and
Senator Palmer advocated the same pro-
position. Ia view of the Developments
which are occurring in the committee
room, there is a growing sentiment in
Senator Carlisle that he had submitted
sugar schedule to the finance committee
with interlineatiOns in his own hand writ
! ing, as has been asserted, the testimony

sugar stock, and the assertion of Repre-
sentative Warner, of New York, that the
represent atVes of the sugar interests en-
deavored to make him desist from his
efforts to secure free sugar, have all be.
come known, notwithstanding the fact
that Senator Gray, who is the supposed
mouthpiece Of the committee, took care
not to mention them when he was giving
out the "purpOrt' of the testimony for
publication. In fact it has been so i'm
possible to keep secret the nature of the
evidence that is being given that the
stenOgrapher' report is to be sent to the
printer and laid before the Senate as fast
as it can be prepared.
Senator McPherson's tes imonv,
which became known Yesterday, is quite
interesting. He stated to the comittee
that he had purchased 1000 shares of
sugar certificates, but that he promptly
transferred them to his son 1t also de
velOped that the senator purchased an
other block of 800 shares. He said that
one evening he and his son were discuss
ing the advisabiIity of investing in some
stocks The senator denied that he
speculated in the sense in which that
word is generally used, He bought the
certificates outright, but, of course,
when their Ralue increased to an extent
to Justify it, he sold the stock for the
profit there was in it. On this occasion
he and his son decided tha; it would be
a good thing to own more sugar certii.
Gates and they accordingly wrote out a
telegram to their broker directing him to
purchase 800 shares Of sugar for them
rhis telegram, Mr. Mcpherson said, was
.d on the table, and they proceeded to
discuss the matter fur her
II is understood here that Cleveland
and ar'i>le are in perfect accord as re-

iliII has rrgained much of his lost pOpu-
l.rity 10y his efforts in regard to having
senatorial Investigations made with open
doors. If be would now abolish exeCu.

the gratitude of the country.
A letter from Winchester, Va men,
tions the interesting fact that Mrs. Bet
tie Taylor cambridge, the only surviving
daughter of ex President Zachary Tay-
lOr, who resides in that city, has just dis
covered, after long search the missing
sash of General BraddOck, which was
long supposed to have been lost. This
;,(, ID
blood, was sent by General Gaines to
General Taylor jlst after his brilliant
achievement on the Rio Grande in 1916
Mrs. cambridge found the valuable relic
carefully wrapped up in linen and labeled
"Braddock sash" 1t was found with
her fathers two military sashes Mrs
Dandridge was formerly Mrs Bliss and
presided over the White House in the
short year her father was president.
The best informed politicians here
! think the tariff bill will become a Law BY
July / But the passage Of the tariff
bill cannot be Immediately followed by
the adj Durnment OF Congress, as good
many people seem 10 think On the
contrary, SONS time must be occupied in
the consideration Of the appropriation
bills. of which twelve. have been sent
over TO the Senate from the House OF
these twelve only three military academy,
pensions and fortihcatiOns have been
reported, leaving nine still in the COM
mittee on appropriations. The House
has tSo still TO pass-the Indian and the
general deficiency.
While these bills will undou btedly be
hurried through when they are reached,
they cannot be passed much faster than
one every two days, and this will occupy
all the working days of 4 month. The
