THE SUGAR TARIFF.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir: SO many erroneous statements
are being published concerning the su-
gar tarin, that l will endeavor to give
your readers a clear idea OF It's peculiar-
tiles compared with the Mckinley tarIH
and the present one.
Under the Mckinley bill the import
price Of refined sugar was about SI.Vo
per hundred pounds higher than raw
sugar
Out of this $3.50 was paid the eX-
Uense Of refining, the remainder 1ur-
nished the profit for the reflner'
The cost of refining in Europe Is
about 60 cents per leo pounds; IN the
United States &C cents.
This difference of 20 cents in our
favor is equivalent 10 over $4OOO'OoO
DroGt 10 the Sugar Trust, or 20 per
cent. on their actual investment
Without any protection they could
wholesale refined sugar at the foreign
price and make 60 cents per loo pounds
profit. or S12,O00,CC9, which would be
equivalent to 90 per cent. upon their
actual investment, or II per cent. on
their watered stock.
Now comes in the craftsmanship or
our new President; in his bill OF 1871
he gave an additional protection OF oO
cents per 100 pounds to sugar rehners,
adding an additional profit of 90 per
cent. TO the Sugar Trust, or Sl0OOOOOO
making ITO per cent. profit on their
investment.
Is it any wonder that the Trust con-
trihuted heavily 10 MchinleyS cleo
ton? .ooo
Under the present tariff during 1896
the import price OF foreign refined SUI
gar averaged so cents per 1V0 POUNDS
higher than raw sugar or net pront
to the Sugar Trust OF 40 per cent. upon
their actual investment without any
protection.
The goldbug Democrats of the Senate
compelled the party to give additional
protection of 10 cents per 100 pounds
through ad valorem and differentlal
rates.
The proposed (Dingley) bill under
present prices gives - cents per 100
pounds protection over and above the
so cents margin on foreign refined.
Margin OF profit to Sugar Trust:
Mckinley bill =. E. Isl 10 per 100 lbs
Wilson bill e. sue per IVO IDS
Dinglev bill -. =. &c. .. S5c per 100 lbs
The Sugar Trust prefers the present
bill. Why? For two reasons:
First-Because a rise in sugar is eX-
pected. on account of the war in Cuba
and a rise of one cent in raw and re-
fined. under the ad valorem rates OF
the present tariff, will increase the mar
gin of profit to the Trust from so cents
to nearly 100 cents per 100 pounds,
while under the Dingley bill it would
remain the same (S5 cents).
Another reason of their preference
for the present bill is, that through their
immense power they can depress the
price of raw sugar, and thus increase
their margin of profit.
An example of the above is given in
the L. S. report on commerce for the
first six months of 1895. Raw sugar fell
GA cents for leo pounds, while refined
fell but II cents.
Add 10 the 64 cents decline in raw
sugar. its corresponding ad valorem
tariff decline ESQ, and We have S9.6
cents. minus II cents, equals 1876
cents net advantage to the sugar men
through forcing down raw sugar and
holding mp the refined

would reduce the above margin from
70. &c to 47c. equivalent TO S5,OCO,OVV'
PRICES OF SUGAR.
Under the proposed tariff the rate on
refined sugar will be increased 80 cents
rer 100 pounds, which will be about
the increase on the present wholesale
price. -,
The ordinary consumer will have to
nav about &c per pound higher, and
where he has been getting Il POUNDS
for one dollar, ne will get only IA or
Is pounds. hut will be to tnat extent
more prosperous(0.
In this new bill, by accepting the tar
iff ON sugar and doubling 1t, the RepuD-
ljcan party comedies that the Mckinley
bill. as a revenue measure was lali-
ure
The present revenue is amply suffi-
Gent for the expenses of the govern
meIlt under an economical system, but
such a system will never be reached
until the Reformed Bryan Democracy
control the government, for the Eastern
goldbug Democrats and Republicans
are alike in every respect.

A LADS TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
He shoots His Arm on While Begin
ming the Holidays With n Hunt.

Oscar Allen, lad about II years Of
age, the son of Mrs. S. c. Allen, No.
9l3 east Marshall street, accidentally shot
his left arm off at the shoulder yesterday
morning in Charles City county, where
he had gone to spend the holidays.
The member was not severed from his
body by the shot but Oscar was brought
back to the city at II rs A. NJ, and the
arm amputated at the Retreat for the
Sick yesterday evening. His Christmas
joys had just begun. and their ending was
sudden, and came soon. He had gone
to the country TO spend the holidays with
his uncle, Mr.. S. ID. Turner, at Turner's
Siding on the Chesapeake and Ohio road,
and yesterday morning sailed forth in
high glee and boyish pride TO have
hunt. He was alone, and though he has
not been able to talk much, he gave those
TO understand somewhat how it hap
pened.
1t seems that he had rested his gun
against the laps of a fallen tree and
was sitting with his back to it watching
some turkeys. He reached around TO set
it without looking, and touched the
branch. throwing the firearm towards
him. The muzzle fell across his shoulder
and discharged. What bravery and nerve
he exercised then remains wonderful, in
deed. He crawled and walked together
to the house Of a tenant on his uncle's
place, and from there a messenger car
ried the news of the accident to the
unces family. A stretcher was impro-
vised, and the suffering, bleeding boy was
taken to the siding, and brought to
Richmond From the depot he was car
ried to the Retreat, and last evening
the arm hanging by shreds of flesh was
severed from the body.
