The resolution recites that one man
is serving q sentence in Jail, and that
another was acquitted on Il technical.
ity, and provides for conducting the in
designations so hat all questions shall
be pertinent
Senator Frye in the chair promptly
referred the resolution to the commit
tee on current expenses, and Mr.. TILL
man was allowed to speak on the sub
ject by unanimous consent.
Mr.. Tillman made a very sensational
speech. He said the democratic mem
bers of the finance committee were UNI
der a cloud on account of the sugar
schedule of the tariff bill Of 1894; also
that the republican members of the
finance committee were under sus-
picion. One party was as deep in the
mud as the other in the mire, asserted
Mr.. Tillman.
Mr.. Pettus dem, Aln.) demanded
that Mr.. Tillman specify his charges
so that the whole senate should not be
subject to his sweeping assertions.
Mr.. Tillmau said the present tariff
bill was made in the rooms Of the Ar
lington hotel, with close connection
by telephone and telegraph with New
York, and in close touch with the
Sugar trust magnates.
Mr.. Tillnan said Chapman was in a
Jail turned into a clubhouse. while the
great magnate had gone free on a tech
nicality.
Mr.. Tillmau produced extracts from
papers showing that the Sugar trust
secured the sugar schedule in the new
bill, and also an extract from a paper
making Il charge that Senator Smith.
of New Jersey, had been specializing in
sugar.
Mr.. Tillman closed with a declara.
ton that the senate should either prove
the correspondents liars, or prove the
senators corrupt, and then turn them
out.
Mr.. Aldrich replied to Mr.. Tillman.
He denied that any person connected
with the Sugar trust had anything
to do with the making Of the sugar
schedule. No person except the repub-
lcan members of the committee knew
anything about the sugar schedule
except Joaeas ofsScvuawsac--~~~s.-sra~fs-
was shown before itsreport. He want
ed to say for himself and for the other
members of the subcommittee that he
had not bought or sold a share of sugar
stock.
