AN ADDITIONAL REPORT.
Senator Allen of Nebraska DenOunces
the Sugar Trust.

the Sugar Trust.
WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator Allen
of Nebraska, who was member of the
sugar investigating committee, has made
an additional report to the senate supple
menting that of the committee. He says:
In view of the fact that the report Of
Senators Gray and Lindsay, in which
concur. does not set forth the facts in
this case fully as think they should be
stated, have deemed it perfectly proper
to file a separate and additional report.
The testimony shows to my mind quite
conclusively that contributions were
made by the sugar trust to both the re-
publican and democratic parties for cam
paign purposes. The testimony of Harry
o. and Theodore Havemeyer and John +.
Searles leaves no doubt of the facts that
the sugar trust in the state OF New York
in 1892 contributed money to the demo-
cratic party for campaign purposes, and
at the same time, and for the same pur-
pose contributed money TO the republican
party in the state of Massachusetts,. 1t
is true that these witnesses testified that
their contributions were made for local
and state purposes, but there is no doubt
in my mind that the money went into
the general campaign fund Of those states
and was used as much for national as for
state and local purposes"
Il think the American sugar refining
company, popularity and more properly
known as the American sugar trust, has
been in the habit of contributing money
to the national compaign funds of both
the democratic and republican parties,
through its president, with the eXpecta-
ton. II not the implied promise, that
whichever party succeeded to power the
interests of the company should be
cared for by Ii. This deduction is fully
warranted by the testimony taken by us.
A wisely-drawn and judicious law look
ing to a prompt and efficient remedy for
this growing evil should be passed by
congress and approved by the president

Milking Estimates.

Senator Hill has received a long letter
from Worthington G. Ford. chief Of the
bureau of statistics, in which he states
that the possibilities of the revenue that
can be raised from the income tax ranges
all the way from S12O0O.OOO to $50 OOO, 900.
He thinks the latter figure is the high
est which can possibly be hoped for and
the last few years the collections would
fall below $4,000 900. He also expresses
the opinion that the revenue which will
be collected ON private IN ,omes Will not
be more than sufficient TO pay for collec-

voted TO hearing reports OF commltSees,
and the transaction Of general business.
The afternoon session was devoted to
the reading and discussion Of three pa
pers, The Polarization of Fruit Bios
soma by Prof. A. ]. Cook of Claremont,
Floral Culture by Mrs. Jennie E. Carr,
and Small Fruits by G.. M. Tabor, both
of Pasadena. All the papers were OF a
decidedly practical nature, written by
people who had experience and knew
whereof they spoke. Professor Cook OF
Pomona college, the first speaker, had
evidently made close study OF his sub
ject, speaking with much clearness and
directly to the point. He considered
the polarization process one OF the most
important and interesting OF natures
processes for developing fruit. The inter-
change of pollen constantly tends to i'm
prove the quality of the fruit. Bees are
the most active agents in assisting the
process although the winds aid much In
short distances. To assist the proper
polarization different varieties should
be planted together in order that the
best results may be obtained.
One OF the best papers Of the day was
that of Mrs. Jennie K. Carr upon floral
culture. Mrs. Carr has lived in this
section for many years and has been
constantly expert menting In the culture
of flowers. She outlined in very inter-
esting manner her methods OF handling
plants go as to produce the best results.
A more general cultivation OF flowers
was advocated, especially among the
poorer classes.
Tho closing paper Of the session upon
small fruit. bv G.. M. Tabor OF this city,
was listened to with much iAterest.
This paper was devoted to one OF the
most profitable departments OF fruit
growing in Southern California. The
different varieties of strawberries,
black berries, ETC., were discussed, both
from a horticultural and financial stand
point. The necessity for introducing O
better grade of fruit. especially in straw
berries, was treated, the big pumpkin"
variety coming in for q sound drubbing
