ing his memory. His recollection was

Mr.. havemeyer said: Contributions
TO local political organizations have
always been made by corporations before
the trust and by the trust and the Amer

doubt viii continue to be. 1t is very
suitable and proper thing to do"
Senator Allison-Why should the Amer
lean Sugar Refining Company contribute
TO either of the political parties in the
state of New Yorkl
Mr.. Havemeyer- We have large inter
ests in this state; we want police protec-
tlon and fire protection. We need every
thing that the city furnishes or gives.
Every individual corporation, firm or
trust does these things and we do them.
Senator Allen-And you contribute to
both parties with the expectation that
whenever party succeeds your interest
will be guarded2
MIR. Havemeyer-We have q good deal
of protection for our contributions.
Senator en-Contributions were also
given to the Republican party in Massa-

Mr.. Havemeyer-It is my impression
that wherever there is dominant party.
wherever the majority is very large,
that is the party that gets the contribu-
ton, because that is the party which con-
trolls the local matters
Senator Allen-Then the sugar trust is
democrat in a democratic state, and a
republican in republican statel

He said he would have to look up to
tell where the contributions went in
Pennsylvania and New Jersey. He could
not give the amount contributed by the
sugar trust to campaign funds, but in an
swer to Senator Allen, he said it did not
amount to 100000. 1t had not contribu-
ted to the anti-snapper fund.
Senator Allen asked for full data as to
all the money contributed by the Ameri-
can Sugar Refining Company, or any of
its officers on its account or in its in
terest, in the different states of the
union in 1852 and 1893 for the political
purposes of any political party, whether
national, state, or local. The request was
granted by the committee. and Mr. Have
