Mr.. Searlss-I have always understood
for many years that it Is the custom Of
both parties to solicit from corporations
and individuals contributions for the
carrying on Of their political campaigns,
and that it is the custom OF corporations
and individuals TO respond to such invi-
tations. And with that understanding
and what believe to bS the general Gus

pany has made such contributions at

perfectly proper for a corporation, the
value Of whose stocks may be affected by

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Mr. Have
meyer, who yesterday stated that he
could not give the amounts Of sugar
trust contribution TO the campaign funds
Of the different states, but indicated o
willingness TO do 30, said to the commit
tee to-day that upon consultation with
counsel he would decline to give the
amounts OF the contributions; that he
was advised that under the terms Of the
resolution the amount Of such Contrlbu-
tions was NO part Of the investigation.
The committee also took this view Of
the matter, as the witness has sworn
that no contribution had been made in
any case to secure the election of United
States senators.
Mr. HRVemsyer stated that in the last
three years the profits Of the trust had
been q cent per pound on refined sugar
and the increased cost to the consumer
under the proposed bill would be / cent
pound. He admitted that the purpose
Of the formation Of tho trust was to in
crease the cost to the American con-
sumner.
Senator Allen-And when you did form
the trust you did advance the price Of
sugar to the American consumer?
Mr.. HSvemsyer-We did. It was an
advance Of about q quarter of q cent
net.
Senator Allen-And the American con
sumner to-day is paying q Of q cent q
pound on refined sugar more than he
would be compelled to pay under a sys-
tenn Of separate reHneriesH
Mr.. Havemeyer-Yes, sir.
Senator Allen-If the trust were wiped
out, the American consumer would be
benefited to the extent Of % Of a cent q
pound on his sugar.
Mr.. HAvemeyer-I will admit that.
But anything that will wipe out the
trust Will wipe out the industry.

urer Of the American Sugar Refining

that for this purpose he had called upon

witness stood upon his rights, however,
when asked about campaign Oontribu-

ond, that mob violence and disorder

that the national government alone
