AS TO THE SUGAR SCHEDULE.
A Report Which is Regarded as the
Work of stock JObbers.

The report of an agreement among the
democrats of the Senate finance committee
to let the sugar men dictate the sugar
schedule in the tariff bill is regarded as
merely a stock-jobbing report. 1t is re-
garded as probable that some of those who
have been interested in the sugar market
since the tariff bill has been under consid-
Grafton have profited handsomely by the ad-
vance in the price of sugar under the stim-
ulation of the report Senator Mcpherson
said today that he had never heard of such
a thing in the committee on finance as the
proposition to yield more to the sugar men.
He said that he objected to the present
schedule because ii did too much for sugar,
and he did not believe there was any pos
sihility of the democrats of the committee
doing more for sugar.
A great deal of uncertainty as to sugar Is
70 be expected, the market being sent up
and down by turns. until the question Is
finally settled. In the Senate several prcpo-
sitions will be made to amend the schedule
one way and then the other, so as to put
the schedule In the most unpopular form
possible. with a view Of weakening the bill.

Candidate for Reelection.

Governor Lewelling will, in all probab bill
ty, be a candidate for reelection. 1t is un-
doubtedly true that he had about made up
his mind to retire from active politics and
again become private citizen. but his enc
mics, both in and out of his party. have
ragged him so much and attributed to him
ambitions of selfish character, which he
really did not possess, that he has about de-
cided to stay with them. There are many
reasons why he should be candidate. His
has been an eventful administration. He
has been maker of history, and. naturally
he is DESTROYS of receiving the verdict of
the people upon his record as governor in
the first peoples party government on
EARTH" Then, too, Mrs. Lease has said that
he should not again receive the party nomi-
nation, and no man wants to appear to the
world as having been turned down by a
woman-which would be the case should he
fail to again be placed at the mead of the
ticket.
