The effect is obvious. England and Holland

The effect is obvious. England and Holland
are the countries which are at once most
nearly our possible competitors, on account OF
their ability to secure supplies Of raw cane
sugar and from the fact that their product IS
most nearly equal to our standard granuiated,
As delivered at their ports the raw cane sugars
they secure cost them, as nearly as may be,
the same price as that paid by our refiners for
their raw cane sugars-that is, a 96 degrees
Javan. Cuban, or Philippine centrifugal would
be worth, say. 8 cents per pound at either Liv-
erpool. New York, or Amsterdam. The duty
paid by our reflners, however. is based upon
the foreign price, which, in the case of Cuban
sugars, would be at least 4 cent, and in the
case of other sugars q to = cent or more be-
low the New York price-say 25s cents on the
average. If, therefore, the American refiner
simply pays his 40 per cent. duty on his raws
under our present law, while the American
importer pays 40 per cent. upon the value Of
the raws contained in his refined, estimated at
their price at the port from which his refined
has been shipped, the importer of refined will
pay a duty upon raws at a valuation of 3s cents
per pound above that upon which the American
reflner has paid duty-that is, for the amount
required to make 100 pounds of refined, as
nearly as may be, Is cents per 100 pounds
special difYerential secured the American re-
finer
The effect of these two difrerentials is as
nearly as may be equivalent to that hidden in
the 40 per cent. duty upon all sugars, raw and
refined; SO that the proposed concession" is
as nearly as may be the same as the Senate
amendment unless the single differential OF
Is cent is considered as less than the double
differential of Is cent and 1-10 cent. 1t must
be remembered, however, that not merely
does the 1-1O cent not apply to all refined
sugars, but the probability is that in 1897
the cessation of German bounties will leave
it a practical nullity; so that the trust might
well exchange the lilo cent Of the Senate bill
for the extra .O75 cent which the proposed
discrimination, 2-l0 cent, exceeds the is
cent given by the Senate bill.
When it is remembered, however, that these
are the very men who have made a scandal of
every schedule affecting raw sugars, and to
thwart those whose frauds, Secretaries Sher-
man, Manning, and Fairchild were so contin-
uously occupied, it can be appreciated that
the worst feature of the proposed ''compro-
mise is not even its practical surrender to
the sugar trust on the points in difference,
but rather the additional opportunity given
it further to exploit, for its own profits, and
the disgrace of our customs system, ideal op-
portunities for fraud and bribery.
In an Gd udlorem duty on sugar lie bound
less opportunities for fraud and bribery. 1t
is TO secure these that an dd Udlorenl basis oil
the sugar tariff has been SO persistently in
sisted upon by the sugar trust.

The Next Monetary Conference.

EDITOR TINES: The public is informed

could be expected.
The people of the United States must take the
next conference in hand, and that conference
should be held at Washington, the Capital
America, Mexico, and bolivia can solve the
currency problem of the world if they so DESIRE
but Chill cuts no figure at all as silver-produc-
ing country, only yielding some IS 600 year.
The external and internal Indebtedness of Chill
represents S90,0O0,GC0, whereas 10 per cent of
the foreign trade is with Great Britain
The Americans by reciprocity treaties with
Chill should SO direct this trade that England
would lose 1t. This Is the only way of bringing
the creditor nation of the world to its senses,
and this system of reciprocity treaties should be
extended to all debtor nations, and this should
be the special JUNCTION Of the neSt monetary

The submarine torpedo boat project has
again come to the front. The board of naval
bureau chiefs have been looking into the past
action of the department, and have taken
steps to have the Construction Bureau exam
inc the plans for the Holland boat and report
on their feasibility. There is an appropria-
ton of 100000 available from last years
appropriation bill for this purpose, but the
ordnance officers who carefully examined
three competitive designs for this underwater
craft decided that they were impracticable,
and moreover would be of no service were
they operative, because of lack Of light under
the ater to navigate them.

EDITOR TIMES: Fully appreciating your re-
marks upon the horid effusion of the Sunday
Post, in which your esteemed contemporary full
sweetly ''plunks the Tyre" and MARBLES with the
LADY of the Lake" in strains that pose two hon
orable members of the House 'swearing to
perish like pair of Roderick Dhus ere they
yield an inch,"I am constrained To ask how
could you omit to remind the rich Corinth-
ian in his wanton wreath lavshing of sweet
floral tributes on the Sugar Trust, that il was
not Roderick that would not bulge, but the other
fellow, royal Fitz James, who said, or sang,

EDITOR TINES: According to THE TINES
this morning the editor of the Post is a little
shy on English literature as well as on the
facts OF the tariff situation.
Unless the writer's memory is treacherous
it was not Roderick Dhu who ''bared his
breast" and refused to ''yield an inch.''
Ii the bard's report of that rencontre is to
be accepted as authentic, one James Fitz-
james was the obstinate individual. On be-
ing confronted with the redoubtabe Roderick
and his warriors true'' he declined TO fly
from his base until the rock at his back, which
formed component part OF the local geology
of the country, should first set him the ex-
ample. He held his base.
This bluff, we are told (that made by Fitz,
not the rock), so excited the admiration of the
hostile chief that he did not force vote, but
contented himself with adjourning the con-
ference. after call of the house, to show the
presence OF a quorum for business.
