where sugar Comes in-The Democracy
Mt Skies and Sevens.
WASHINGTON, Dec. %. The Ways and
Means Committee is badly tangled up
over the question whether an individual
income tax shall he levied or the plan
proposed by Secretary Carlisle and ap
proved by President Cleveland for tax
ON inheritances and on incomes derived
from corporate investments together
with a duty of per cent on sugar.
OF the eleven Democrats on the com
mittee five favor an individual income
tax and five favor the administration
plan. with one man, Judge Turner
of Georgia, on the fence, but
who is likely to sucCumb to admin
.istration influences and alight
on that side of the aforesaid fence.
The Admin tration is pointing TO the
fact that duty of one cent on sugar
will obviate the necessity for a bounty
on the domestic product of that article,
/ and thus save $4,000, 900 to the Treas
| ury, while a tax or duty of one cent
would yield $50, 000,0 600 with which Ia
meet the deficit staring the Administra-
/ ton in the face.
/ The Administration is being urged on
all sides to press the matter to a fina
settlement, and, at the risk of criticism
because of unconstitutional interference
with coordinate branch of Govern
ment, will bring its strong hand to beal
in the solution of the problem of in
fluencing votes to support Chairman
Wilson in the stand he has taken.
Meanwhile the distress Throughout
the country is growing every day, bu
the Administration is callous to tn
appeals being made for halt in it
free-trade course and will press tn
issue regardless of any and all inter

THINGS COMING OUR WAY.
CLEVELAND WANTS TO ESCAPE HIS
BLUNDERs.
May Drop Hawaii and Go in for the Big
Canal-Witnesses Before the
Senate Committee.

WASHINGTON, December %. - Now
that it is more than probable that Presi-
dent Cleveland and Secretary Gresham
have decided that it will be impossible
to carry out their first intentions with
respect to the restoration of the Queen
in Hawaii, it is said to be more than
likely that they will turn their attention
in some other direction and endeavor if
possible to foster some great interna-
tional project. From information
secured to-day it is evident, however,
that HAWAII may become necessary for
the success of the coup which President
Cleveland expects to spring as one of
the most prominent and conspicuous
features of his second term as Presi-
dent
Intimates of the President now say
that he Is determined 10 make i'm
portant history and recover, if possible,
from the failure made in Hawaii by at
tempting to push through Congress a
bill guaranteeing this Government S
support to the Nicaragua canal. 1t is
well understood that the Nicaragua
Canal Company is now practically bank
rupt, due probably to the fact that this
Government has refused to come to its
rescue. The failure to pass either of the
previous bills which that company has
had introduced in Congress is said to be
due TO the fact that the terms were too
liberal for the stockholders.
THE GIGANTIC BENEFITS.
President Cleveland, say his intimate
friends, has been giving careful atten-
ton to this canal project, and believes
that gigantic benefits would accrue to
the United States if it would complete
and control this canal. From financial
point of view for this Government 1t
would far surpass, according to the
Presidents belief, those of the Suez
canal to England.
Besides the great advantage in carry
ing our trade and IN shortening the dis
lance between the Atlantic and Pacific
coast, and consequent reduction in over
land freights by bringing railroads in
competition with water transportation
the President is said to be intensely in
terested in this matter for the reason
that he believes that the completion of
the canal under the auspices and its
control by the United States would
taken in conjunction with the new tariff
policy upon which this country is TO |
c inter mark the Inauguration of bril- |
liant foreign trade.
THE HAWAIIAN POSITION.
Those who have paid close attention /
TO the matter declare that if the United |
States is to control the canal the Ha-
waiian Islands may loom up again in
our horizon. They will become the
strategic point of the Pacific ocean,
the western entrance TO
the canal. The eastern entrance can be
commanded from our gulf ports and
the Mole st. Nicholas.
1t is argued if the United States does
not assume protectorate over the
Islands, coaling station at Pearl River

WHITING AND HIS BRIDE.



KANSAS CITY (NIo.), December Ga
Commander William Henry Whiting, of
the United States navy, and his bride,
who was Miss Henrietta Along, daugh-
ter of "a millionaire Chinese merchant,
arrived in Kansas City. over the Bur
lington Railroad this evening. They
were met at the depot by Bishop A. X.
Atwill of this Episcopal diocese and
driven to the bishopric. Mrs. Atwil is
sister of the Commander, and for the
first time in many years she will eat a
Christmas dinner with her brother. 1t
is expected that Mr.. and Mrs. Whiting
will remain in Kansas City for several
days and then depart for New York,
going from the metropolis to Washing
ton. At Washington the Commander
will apply for an extension of his leave
of absence, which will in all probability
be granted to him. 1t is likely that he
will be given charge of some naval
station.

Labor regarding the property upon which

they would investigate the matter has
given rise TO inquiry as to how much
property is owned by Mr. Arthur IN the

plicate for 1888 at the county court housc
shows that last year Mr., Arthur paid
taxes upon real estate upon listed yau-
alton Of $40 $50. The taxable va.ua-
ton Of the property is about 30 per cent
OF its value. This would make Mr.. Ar.
thurs estate worth about 5000 Ar
thurs personal estate was assessed at
$3.50 which includes, Of COURSE his
