A Sugar Catechism

Q. What is the sugar tax? A. It is a
duty of 40 per cent upon the value of all
sugar imported, and one-eight of cent
addition upon refined sugars.
Q. Who pays the taxes? 4. All taxes are
paid ultimately by the people-the con-
sumers. When the Mckinley law removed
anG reduced the duties on sugar, the price
declined by almost precisely the amount
of the taxes abated.
@. How are sugar taxes collected?
A. The taxes on raw sugar imported are
paid by the refners, organized as sugar
trust. The trust then adds this tax and
the duty on refined sugar to the selling
price, and the grocers collect it from the
people. ......
Q. What does this tax amount to? A..
In 1893 the Sugar Trust imported $751;
2l9,367 pounds of raw material, costing
S1l4,959,6O9. the people paid the Trust a
sugar tax of s19,S54, 500. The Treasury
got nothing. Under the new tariff the tax
on the same importation will amount to
s5e 10000 on raw Sugar, which goes to
the Treasury and the Trust, which has
an absolute monopoly of the market, will

Q. Is a tax needed to protect our re-
fners? A. It is not. Sugar refining is
done more cheaply here than in any other
country. IN this testimony before the
Ways and Means Committee in 1881 Mr..
Havemeyer, President of the Sugar Trust
said: II do not see why, under free trade
proportion of the worlds consumption"
Q. What have been the Sugur Trusts
profits under the favoring tariff 4. In
1888 the trust paid S5,000,000 cash in divi-
dends, equalling 27,5 per sent on its certi-
fcates. In 1889 it paid the same and dis
tributed 8 per sent in stock certificates.
In 1898 the profits were nearly 165 per
cent, in necessary INVESTMENTS" ..G
@. And this is the concern that has just
been licensed by German, Brice, Smith
& Co. to tax the people Of the United
States $20,0O0,D00 and more a year for its
exclusive benefit? A. 1t is.
@. what do the people propose to do
about it? a. They propose to smash the

WAsmYGTON, April SIT tho plans
OF tho Democratic leaders OF tho senate
do not miscarry tho senate will devote
itself almost exclusively this week to
consideration OF the tariff bill. Their
plan 10 to have tho bill taken up each
day Immediately alter tho conclusion OF
the routine business, which means that
they desire to absorb as much OF tho
morning hour, which usually lasts un-
til 2 o'clock as possible. and cut out the
discussion OF miscellaneous subjects,
many Of which arc introduced when q
question like tho tariff bill is under dis.
cussion for tho purpose Of obtaining do
lay. 1hoy may not succeed in getting
such IN order as this, but tho announce.
ment OF the purpose OF making an effort
in that direction is an indication Of
their intention Of Crowding the debate
along as rapidly as it possibly can be
done.
Tho Democratic membors OF the
finance committee will also probably
undertake to extend the daily sessions
until G o'clock, which will most likely
bo resisted by tho Republicans.
Grcat interest is telt in Senator Hills
speech, which Is announced for to-mor-
row. 1t is known from former utter
nnces that ho is opposed 10 the income
tax and that, while the bill was in COM
mittee, he sought 10 have many changes
made in the schedules and objected to
the Wholesale adoption OF the advalorem
system-tbat indeed, at that :ime tho
bill as whole found very little favor in
his eyes. 1t is not believed that he has
changed his mind, but he has been
very reticcnt on the subject since the
timo Of tho three days caucus.
Whether Mr.. Hill shall speak to.nor-
row in accordance with his announce.
rnent will depend upon Senator Pellcr.
Mr.. PETER has not concluded tho speech
begun by him on Thursday, and he will
have the floor to proceed tomorrow II
he insists upon holding it.
Other questions which may receive
attention during the week arc tho
Chinese treaty, the Russian thistle bill
and the resolution providing for the
coinage Of Mexican dollars in this coun,
try.
Appropriation bills will have the
right OF way in the house during tho
week. It is the intention OF tho house
managers to push ahead with thcsc
bills and get them out Of the way as
soon as possible. Some OF tho promi-
mont house Democrats arc alarmed ut
the slow progress made in the senate
with tho tariff bill and the seeming in-
difference those in charge OF it arc
manfes,ing. They think by clearing
up the work Of tho house the country
will see that any responsibility for tho
delay OF tho tariff. which may exist, will
lay at the door OF tho senate.
The matters connected with tho at
tempt TO restore Queen Liliuokalani,
will again be tnrcshed over; the
Bazilian resolution, and the action OF
Commander Stanton in saluting the in
surgent General De Mollo, will come in
for their share OF attention. as will also
tho Bluefelds, Nicaragua, incident, and
perhaps the wreck Of the Kearsarge.
In fact, the debate vii! probably take
very wide range, and may touch upon
any OF the numerous diplomatic con-
troyersies pending.
