N written statement which the witness
had prepared before making his appear
ance before the committee and which he
read in ringing voice.
Continuing his statement, he asserted
that tariff of 10 per cent was as high as
any tariff should be. He contended that
sugar is Disseminated against in the
tariff In the interest of the Louisiana
cane growers, the beet sugar makers and
the sugar growers of the Hawaiian Is
lands. To these interests he contended
the United States contributed 4000,-
900, which was taken out of the pockets
of the people.
Worth More Than It's Capital.
Replying to questions by Professor
Jenks after he had concluded the read
Ing of his paper, Mr.. Havemeyer said the
American company was capitalized for
much less than it was worth. But for
the clamor against trusts" he said, ut
could be sold for three times its capi-
talization." Yet he thought the re6ner-
les could be duplicated for $35, 100000
or $4O. .0OO. 900. The present capacity Of
the trust. he said is II, 900 barrels a day
and the output 10000. He thought the
trust was refining about 90 per cent Of
the sugar refined in the United States.
The witness spoke very freely of the
methods Of the company in preserving
and extending it's business. OF the
earlier history of the enterprise, he said
he didn't fight the Harrison refinery at
Philadelphia. But we had to fight
Spreckels when he came into the field
with his enormous plant We had to do
that or suspend our dividends. We went
into the fight and kept at it until we got
the refinery -,
"How many stockholders have you"'
asked Professor jerks.
"About II .OO0." he replied, and added j.:
"enough to take Cuba-and they would
take it if they could. :.
The latter remark was made IN hght
vein. He stated as his opinion that the
Cuban sugar should BE- brought in free OF
duty and that this course would bring
refined sugar down to 3 cents a pound
Speaking of the coffee business Mr'
Havemeyer said he was in the business
and in it to stay.

Water Works Extension.

Mayor Gordon, City Engineer and
Supt.W Water Works Currier N. d. Phelps
and Messrs Mackay, Robbins, Kingston
and Patterson of the Board of Aldermen
visited the city water works yesterday
to see what would be the most feasible
plan of extending the system.
-Four different plans are under consid-
Grafton. Probably the most feasable is
that of extending the East Barre pipe
line mile and half to an intake near
Grearson's. The cost here would be for
the pipe and laying it somewhere from
$4,000 to $4,000 wafer damages, and
possibly $500 for the construction OF
reducer
The officials say the supply would be
abundant and beyond question as to
purity. The second best plan is the
purchasing of the Martin farm and the
building of storage reservoir. There
is natural basin, and a 70 foot dam
would probably store 100000 gallons.
The cost would be heavy. A 80 foot
dam is all that would he needed just
now, but the foundation would have to
be prepared for a 70 fool dam.
Another plan is to build storage
reservoir on Brush Brook near Will
Jamestown village. and the fourth plan
is to clean Peck Pond and build dam
for a storage reservoir there, This
will cost a large sum of money. The
East Barre extension plan is the one re-
ceiving the most favorable considera-
ton and will probably be the one
adopted.

AGED STONEMASON
 FOUND DEAD IN BED
Roomed With Ills Son at the Waddell House in First Avenue-Came
 from Atlanta.

R. c. Young, a stone cutter, 66 years of age, was found dead in his bed at the Wad- dell house, in First avenue between Eigh- teenth and Nineteenth streets, yesterday morning about o'clock by his son, T. J. Young. The coroner was notified and after he had viewed the remains, decided that death had resulted from heart disease.
 Young was a member of the Stone Cut ters' Association of North America. and was also Mason. The body was removed to the undertaking establishment of the Warner-Smiley company the stone cutters of this city having charge of the funeral arrangements. It is not yet certain where the dead man will be buried. His son has wired to Atlanta, the home of the dead man, and all depends on the reply to his telegram as to whether his father will be carried to Atlanta or buried here. If he is buried here the funeral will be at o'clock today and the interment will be at Oak Hill cemetery. Youngs son stated last night that his father was a stout man, weighing about one hundred and eighty pounds, but that he (the son) had always expected him to die as he did. The de- ceased leaves a wife Gin Atlanta) and six grown children. His son declares that his father was alive at o'clock yesterday morning, and that he must have expired be- tween that hour and ' o'clock, when he was found.
