New Sugar Schedule Adopted.
Republicans in Caucus Decide a Party for
the New Bill

the bill. He referred to the apparent
divisions at present existing in the
senate, and said it was high time q
perfect understanding was reached.
Senator Thurston then put his sugges-
ton in the shape of a motion to the
effect that the agreement of the caucus
should be binding upon all Republican
senators, and it carried by large ma
jolity. The main propositions on the
sugar schedule were those fixing the
rate on refined sugar. There were
three of these propositions. The one
adopted, fixing the rate at one and
ninety-five hundredthS of d cent per
pound in place Of one and eight hum
dred seEenty-hve thousandths, as fixed
by the house bill, was suggested by
Senator Spooner. Senator Perkins sug-
gested l 3-16. The last amendments
were voted down viva voce and the
Spooner amendment accepted by an al
most unanimous vote. There was no
especial effort to retain the amendment
originally offered by the senate finance
committee. and no proposition was
made to that effect by any one. SEN
ators Allison and Aldrich expressed
the opinion that the schedule, as pre-
pared by their committee, was equitable
and that it's provisions were misunder-
stood
Mf. AlQficn. VINO IS generally credited
with the authorship of the finance
committee provisions, had been ex-
pected to stand out stiff1y for the
amendments, but he did not do So He
said that his interest in the revision
as a whole was superior to his interest
in any particular schedule; that he
had no pride in the rates fixed by the
committee; that Notwithstanding his
