ACCEPTED By THE PRESIDENT.
Details of the Interviews With Vest, Jone
and Harris.

And then German called on Vest who
said he had not himself seen the presi-
dent since last summer, but had told
Jones that if the senate went into the figh,
for the compromise bill the president
must be behind it; and Jones said that he
was. Then Vest gave up his personal
opinions and agreed to support the bill.
Next arose Jones of Arkansas to state
how he got authority to speak for the pres
ident. He met Secretary Carlisle and told
him that he (Jones) would not 20 one step
further if the administration was not be-
hind him. He requested Carlisle to ex-
plain everything to the president.
Jones then continued: 81 saw the presi-
dent. He told iae Mr.. Carlisle had ex-
planned all and he [Clevelandl said he
thought We We're doing the wise and prop
er thing. Among the amendments thus
prepared were those placing coal and iron
on the dutiable list. Until read Mr.
Cleve'aud's letter to Mr. Wilson / believed
he cordially approved of our action. had
expressed to him the opinion that il must
either be this modified bill or none ut all,
and he had replied that in the alternative
he favored the modified measure
Villas asked whether the subjects of coal
and iron were ever mentioned in these in
terviews with the president, aud Jones
sad they We're, at every conversation
especially so.
Aud" continued Jones, with measured
emphasis Oh each word, ''the president
never uttered one solitary word against
going ahead with coal and iron in the bill
rs then in the senate"
''One more question:" said Villas. ''Did
not the president express the hope at all
times that iron and coal should be on the
free list?'
"At all times, yes" said Jones. "But
1t was the expression of hope that the
circumstances would permit its reallza-
tion."
Harris was the next witness summoned
by German and stated that in conversa-
tion with Cleveland he (1arris) had been
led to conclude that the president favored
the passing of Che compromise senate bill,
not because he approved it, but because
it was the best that could be secured
German next proceeded to criticise
Hills course and asserted that the New

Why Sugar Was Put on the Dutiuble Liss
by she Senate.
After discussif the coal duty for time
Gorman came g sugar and said: Our
friends on the OF ser side with great gem
eralship saw tie weak point in our line
from the beginn sg. In the construction
of the Mckinley ill they made free sugar
the pivot, SO thas they might increase the
duties on their ssvn wares and the output
of their own factories" Then he compli.
mented the Repf blicans on the wcv they
had managed theA fight in this sessio. and
then proceeded L, tell some party secrets.
He said that sster Cleveland was nom.
mated the two senators from Louisiana
wanted TO know of the party candidate,
what the policg of the party was to be
under the apparently free trade resolu-
tions adopted 81 Chicago After a great
deal of talk and most careful considera-
tion that candidate of our party told
them, as he toldthe public through his
letter. that the R-mocratic party was not
to destroy indusi ries, that it should place
fair duty upon dutiable articles
revenue duty; tlst the bill which had met
his approval wa- the Mills bill, aud on
the line of the Mills bill the Democratic
party would act.t
Then these senators went to the party
leaders and wan.ed 10 know if the Demo-
cratic organization put the same construc-
tion on the platform tha: Cleveland did;
wanted to know4f under that platform
sugar was dutifble article, and German
continued: AT fhat solemn conclave we
all said: Yes, it is a dutiable article; it
is to be and must be and must be the cor
nerstone on which we will overthrow Nc
klQleyiSn Non shall baya IL Iv oil
my public career no man has ever charged
me with perfdy. No soul can say that 1
ever made n promise about public CT pri-
vate matters that did not carry out if
had the power to it"
r.xNrning to Voorhees, German said: "Sav
to them the conferreesl that at this time
when the whole World is ablaze with revo-
luton i'll industrial affairs, and want and
distress are felt. the senators have said 10
you they cannot 60 further, they prefer to
make mistake for high rates rather than
to have them tool low; that il is wise states
manship through patriotism to make the
mistake and make the tax too high and
let these laboring;people go to work rat her
than to make it TOO low"
Among those Who listened most earn
estly was Sir Julien Pauncefote, the Brit
ish minister, who was in the diplomatic
gallery. In conclusion German practically
warned his colleagues that on the ma
terisl points it must be the senate bill or
no bill. White OF California was the only
other speaker of the day. While personally
in favor of free coal and free iron ore, he,
too, declared it 10 be the part of patriot
ism for the Democrats to stand together
for the senate bial. After he concluded
the senate adjour+ied with the situation
seemingly in as chaotic state as ever.
