an abrogation of the treaty with Ha-
waii has nothing to do with the tariff
legislation. for this could be done as
well by accepting the House sugar
schedule, as the sugar schedule pro-
posed.
'The fact that the Senate Finance
Committee recommend an ad valorem
duty on sugar apparently little high
er than the specific duty of the House
bill does not insure larger revenue,
as past experience with ad valorem
duties has shown. In our Judgment
the revenue from sugar under the
House sugar schedule, setting aside the
question of abrogating the Hawaiian
treaty-would be larger than under the
Senate amendments.
THE proposed temporary duty on
tea would increase the revenue. al
though not so much the first wear as
estimated, because of the large stocks
on hand and the short stocks that
would be maintained with the knowl-
edge that teas would soon go back to
the free list, and the proposed increase

increase the revenue to the extent es-
timated. But the other proposed am
endments would, as a whole. diminish
rather than increase the revenue.
IF the Ways and Means Committee
had supposed when it made its state
ment on March 18th that the bill would
be delayed as long as now seems prob
able. it would have said that such de-
lay would inevitably result in largely
multiplying the revenue qualities of the
bill the first year through importations
of wool, sugar and other articles before
the new duties should go into force
unless a retroactive provision as was
placed in the bill by the House could
be maintained.

NEW YORK, May 15.-The Press
this morning says: There has been
projected in this city the greatest
financial institution of the world. It is,
in short, the establishment of a credit
company, under Federal supervision,
on the plan of the Credit Foncier OF
France, but with greater powers.
John R. Dospassos has the charter
in his possession, and says it will be
submitted to Congress within two
weeks. He claims that it has received
the approval of the administration and
the leaders in Congress. News of the
undertaking came from Washington
yesterday. but most of the Republican
leaders denied that they had been
consulted with reference to it.
The company, as planned, is to have
a capital of $500, 900 900. with the pri-
vilege of doing a business of $1,000
100000. Among the New York f1nan-
ciers mentioned in connection with the
project are ]. Edward Simmons, Geo.

Chairman Dingley Thinks House

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE min
ority members of the Senate Finance
Committee today got down to hard
work on the tariff bill, comparative
statements being furnished. They
have devoted much time to sugar, con-
GLIDING that the Senate clause will be
sure to advance the price, as, accord
ing to their figures, the lowest rates
for foreign graduated will be All
cents, higher than now rules.
Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, who is
in charge of the Senate bill. today
made his first statement in defense
of the schedule. He said: "The first
thing TO be considered was revenue
and we found that to get $50, 1000. 900
would require a duty of 70 per cent.
ad valorem. The trouble with specific
duties based on polariscope tests is
that the values of raw sugars vary. A
rigid specific duty keeps out low-grade
raw sugars, of which 10 per cent. of
the consumption of the United States
is made up.
For commercial reasons the COM
pound duty became necessary. In low
grade sugars we deal with PHILIPPINES.
lava and China, and they, in turn.
Wke cotton and petroleum. To shut
out their sugars would cut off our
markets. On sugar below IS per cent.
polariscope tests, the Dingley bill rates
are LA per cent. ad yalorem. We con-
sidered the duty 75 per cent. too high.
but the beet-sugar producers came in
and demanded protection. and so we
decided to make a 40 per cent. duty
specific and So per cent. ad valorem.
''Seventy-five per cent. of the cane
sugars are 'centrifugals of 96 per cent.
test with a foreign value of 2bG2ss
cents per pound. This is 70 of a cent
and IS per cent. ad valorem. The rate
on granulated we figured at 1.96. on a
basis of 21z cents pound. The House
bill gives q differentiaI of .245. while
in our bill it is only 22.'
There is some difference of opinion
among the Democratic members of the
Senate Committee on Finance as to the
policy to be pursued in regard to the
tariff bill. Some of them. among them
Senator German. are of the opinion
that the Democrats should prepare a
substitute bill and introduce it. They
suggest that this substitute should en-
body the Democratic idea of the tariff
favoring the Republican bill. either as
prepared in the House or as amended
by the Senate Committee on Finance.
There is, however, quite a pronounc-
ed opposition 10 this programme on
the part of many Democratic Senators.
including several members of the Com
mittee on Finance. They take the
position that the safest course for the
party is to stand by the Wilson bill.
which, while it is not perfect. is still a
Democratic measure. The party. they
say, has taken the position that no
tariff legislation is necessary. The
campaign was fought on other issues
and they hold that to raise the tariff
question on their own motion would be
inconsistent and unwise. Those who
hold TO this idea are willing that am
endments should be offered covering
all the schedules and it seems probable
that this course will be pursued.
