New York, June 14-Col. Bradley
B. SnaIley, democratic national
committeeman from Vermont and
collector of the port of Burlington,
was at the Fifth Avenue hotel yes
terday. He was on his way home
from Washington, where he had
been in consultation with Secretary
Gage and other Treasury officials.
When questioned as to the business
conditions in New England, he said:
"In my own state no more deplor-
able business conditions have existed
since 1850. Trade is stagnant. No
one appears to have any money. The
farmers have no sale practically
for their products. Thousands are
begging for employment, with little
or no hope to work at anything like
living wages. The same people who
demanded a change from Cleveland
to Mckinley are now as vigorously
demanding change from Mckinley.
I was a gold democrat, but I am
frank to say that were Bryan to bs
nominated for the Presidency to-day
he would sweep the country.
What assurance have we that the
new tariff will eradicate the evils
from which we euffer? While in
Washington I tried to find out when
final action would be taken on the
bill. I was told that Tom Reed aud
his republican friends will never &C
cept the Senate amendments, espe-
cially those affecting thu sugar trust.
I was also told that the President
himself has given it to be under
stood that the Dingley bill, as origin
ally framed, must bs sent to him for
approval. If this be true, how long
will tbs deadlock between Senate
and House continue!
"Currepcy reform? heard moth
ing about it In Washington. If they
do nothing at this or next session of
Congress, predict that long before
Mckinley finishes his present term
hs will have an opportunity to pass
upon free silver bill, for the next
House will be democratic. There is
free silver majority in the Senate

c. A. Loomas, of Chillicothe, the
republican candidate for congress in
the second district, defeated by
Robt. Bodine, has lost his influence

to get to Congress but it has
been said that he has not failed 10

Senator Mills of Texas, "we can

TRUST WINS EASILY.
Entire Sugar Schedule Pulled Through
by the Senate.

Entire Sugar Schedule Pulled Through
by the Senate.
Washington, D. c., Juno 15.-The
Sugar trust and all the big and little
trusts have demonstrated their abso-
lute control over the Republican
Senate. As drawn by the trust. tho
sugar schedule was agreed to by the
senate: and the Psttlgrew anti trust
amendment, which threatened to
curtail trust activity and lessen trust
profits, was promptly laid on tho
table.
Senator McEnery of Louisiana was
one democrat who voted for the
sugar schedule and against the anti
trust amendment. By the sams
token he il probably the only mem.
Der on that side who will vote for
the trust dictated measure on its
final passage. The senator's from tho
south who voted for protection to
southern interests local to their
state, will not vote for the tariff
measure as a whole, but the trusts
do not care. Their end has been
gained. Tho senate made q great
stride forward to- day by completing
the consideration of the sugar sched.
uls of the tariff bill, except the pro-
vision relating to Hawaii, which
went over.
This schedule has been the storm
center of the entire bill, and with
it disposed of there is better pros
pect for speedy action on the bill as
q whole. The first paragraph of the
sugar schedule has served to bring
out all the speeches and the test
voter, and when this was prssed
early to day the other paragraphs of
the schedule were agreed to without
further opposition. As agresd to,
the schedule places on sugar not
above No. Is Dutch standard l per
cent per pound and .63 Of . cent for
every degree above IS; and on sugar
above No. Is Dutch standard 1896
cents per pound, but on sugars test
ing below 81 degrees Ito cent per
pound shall bs deducted. The other
provisions OF the schedule relate to
maple sugar, maple syrup, candy etc.
Only one yea snd nay vote WAS taken
during the day, that on the amend
ment of Mr.. Lindsay, of Kentucky.
to make the rate Is cents per pound
on sugar above No. Is Dutch stand
srd. The amendment was defeated
81 to 35.
Mr.. Pettigrsw's amendment re-
lating to trusts was taken up and
discussed at length. It developed
considerable divergence of views on
both sides OF the chamber, the two
Alabama senators, Messrs. Morgan
and Pettus, joining Mr.. Hoar in op.
position Mr.. Allison finally tested
the sense of the senate by moving
to table the amendment, which mo
ton prevailed, yeas 35. nays 80,

and thus turning the scale against
