ators were responsible for the pending
Dill, and II was not To be expected that
amendments by democratic conserees
would be engrafted In the bill. Jones
insisted that the course OF the repub-
lican conferees had been exceptional
and arbitrary. The senator turned his
attention To the various schedules,
comparing rates with the opening
statement of Aldrich that the rates
were TO be moderate and conservative.
In particular, he urged that each
change In the rates on sugar had
given added benefits 10 the trust
AT one stage Aldrich interrupted Ia

low that of the law OF 1890. Referring
To Jones criticisms ON the sugar sche-
dule. he said that his personal Views
were favorable To free sugar. as they
had always been. and he would so
vote II there was opportunity. But
the demands for revenue made that
out of the question. He insisted also
that Jones figures on the differentials
