Amber Smith-Etc.

Kentucky.
Tillman's fiery speech in the Senate
the other day is yet the talk of the
town. Senator Smith, whom Tillman
mentioned as one of the men who had
speculate in sugar stock, has denied the
accusation, but there are others who
were originally named by newspaper
correspondents that have said nothing
so far.
No one appears to be sufficiently well
posted to tell the actual result of the
sugar schedule, as it applies to the re-
fined products. Ii will run up, certain
ly. into the millions. No estimates have
been made on comparative statements is
sued by the Sendte Finance Committee.
Experts are working on the matter now,
but they are yet at sea as to the effect
of the proposed schedule. Even the sugar
people, who are alleged to have made this
schedule do not know what it will be
worth TO them, but everybody admits
IT win be a big haul.
