any other man in the gossip over the
preparation OF the sugar schedule of
the pending Tariff bill, responded to the
ing Committee and appeared before the
Committee to-day to give his testimony.
The doors were closed against the press
rs usual.
Mr.. Havemeyer talked quite freely
about his visit to Washington while the
Tarif bill was pending before the Finance

half of the proper protection of the
refining interest, among them Senators

Senator Hill had given him no satisfac-
He said the present Tariff biz was an

protection which their interest should
had advocated the ad vaiorem system
and was gratifed that 1t had been
adopted to the extent that 1t was, but
even with this concession he declared
the schedule was far from satisfactory.
Mr.. Havemeyer denied all knowledge
of speculation in Sugar stocks by United
States Senators, and said that nc infiu-
.ence had been brought to bear upon
the Senat to ecure protection for sugar
on account Of contributions on the part
Of the Trust to the campaign fund, as
no such contribution had been made.
.. When asked a second time as to the
Interest that Senators took in the sugar
schedule, Mr.. Havemeyer said that when
the difference bet ween the ad valorem
and specific schedules had been ex-
planned inc It had become apparent
that the ad valorem duty was more
honest and that 1t would be more
equitable to all concerned, Senators
gmith, German and Brice had interested
themselves to bring about a change.
AS to Senator Hill, he was utterly
indifferent. and Mr.. Havemeyer said the
senior New York Senator seemed more
inclined to devote himself to side Is
pues, like the income tax and Peckham
