that a sugar schedule had been
made upon Mr.. Benedict's yacht,
when the President was on board
with refners of the Sugar Trust
was not true. and its falsity lad
been established after the com
mittee had probed the statement

fled that no such meeting ever Oc-
Cured and that they never met
Mr. Cleveland.
Senator Tillman said he was
glad to hear this. He wanted
everything to come out that would
"clarilv the situation" He was
attacking no one, but one half OF
the American people believed, he
said, that there was corrupt
deal" in 1894, "jusl as some Of us
believe there is something rotten
in Denmark now"
Both parties are involved" "

duty? Why was it that they
cleared $25,O0O,000 in three
years. They had cleared it," he
added, "at the expense of every
cup of tea and coffee drunk
throughout the country. 1t was
the Republican party who did it
first. 1t was the Democratic par
ty who did it in 1894.
"And now, he proceeded,
"with Il disgraced and demoralized
Democratic party out of power
and the Republicans in charge
we have another damning evi-
dence OF the Sugar Trusts power"

SPECIFIC ATIONS MADE.

Senator Tillman said he would
now present specilications. lie
sent to the desk and had read Il
number OF signed articles in the
newspapers of New York, Chi
ca"o and elsewhere. making seri-
Gus charges against Senators. The
names of individual Senators were
mentioned for the first time
The first article read from the
desk began with "Smith ahead on
sugar and spoke OF the New Jcr-
sey Senator selling six thousand
shares of Sugar stock short. at a
profit Of $4,000.
Senator Smith was not in the
chamber at the time. Then fol
lowed the reading of many other
articles making intimations and
charges of speculation and irregu
larity
Senator Tillman carried on Il
running comment as the reading
proceeded, speaking briefly after
each article. "lf any man has
been influenced in The manner
charged, he the Senator asserted
"waS no better than the blackleg
gambler who had cards up his
sleeve. such a man should be

on the sugar schedule reached
New York spectators. The reso-
luton proposed the appointment
OF new committee of investiga
ton, TO be made up of five Sena-
tors, who are fully empowered to
summon witnesses and call for
papers in connection with their
inquiry. The resolution, omit
ting the preamble, is as follows
"Resolved, That a committee of
five be appointed, with power to
send for persons and papers, to
employ stonographer and to ad-
minister oaths. TO inquire into the
truth or falsehood of the charges $
made in May, 1894, and into the
charges recently made; and the
scope of the investigation shall
cover everything embraced IN the
resolution OF May II, 1894, as
well - the methods pursued by
the American Sugar Refining
Company, better known as the
Sugar Trust, in controlling le@is-
lation in its favor nj the present
time. Especially whether il has
any wise contributed to or con
jrolIcd he election OF Senator
in this body at any time"
Senator Frye, who was in the
chair owing TO the absence Of
Vice President Hobart, promptly
ruled that the resolution should
90 TO the committee on contin-
gent expenses. But Senator Till
man was not to be stopped. He
asked consent to make n state
ment on the resolution. and, this
being granted, the South Carolina
Senator began Il speech, which
proved to be one of the most sen
sational the Senate has heard in
recent years. He spoke with his
characteristic vigor of voice. which
fairly rang through he chamber
corridors, adding expressive yes
lures to his uttcranccs.
We have arrived at a time, =
he declared. 'when the Senate
can no longer afford to rest under
the damning accusations made
against Senators. If there are
men here dsl2.chiug the Senate.
