COMING SUGAR TARIFF FIGHT
WILL ENLIST VAST INTERESTS

Washington. Nov. 1S.-There Is to
be battle of brains backed by mil
lions in the lobbies of Washington this
winter. The gladiators are preparing
their arguments and mapping out lines
of policy. Conferences are held daily
within the different camps.
The question at issue is whether raw
sugar grown in Cuba shall be admitted
to the United States free Of duty, or
at reduced rate of duty, under n
treaty Of reciprocity. The interests
involved are vast in capital and in the
possible effect of congressional action
upon the happiness and prosperity of
thousands Of people. A delegation from
Hawaii has already visited Washing
ton and another from Cuba is en- route
here.
The capital involved in the United
States is S9O,OoOOOOo of the American
Sugar Refining Company, of which
S15.0O0OOO Is new stock issued this
year for the avowed purpose Of enlarg-
ing the Cuban sugar growing, as well
rs the refining enterprises of that cor
poration; the S19.00O,OOO of the Beet
Sugar Company. millions OF other beet
companies, and sum so vast, invest
ed in real estate and mortgages In
Cuba, that no accurate estimate of the
amount can be made. There is also
try In Louisiana.

Neither ii. II. Tammen nor +. G. Bon
fills was present. Anderson did not be-
tray any nervousness, although he was
plainly relieved after hearing the YER
dict read.
After the jury had been polled and
dismissed Anderson, after first shak-
ing hands with Mr.. Taylor, his cOun-
sci, shook hands with each member of
the jury and then left the court room,
accompanied by his counsel. In dis
missing the jury, Judge johnson said
few words of thanks for the atten-
tion they had given the case.
The Anderson case grew out of the
efforts made by Mr.. Tammen and Mr..
BOnfils to secure the release of Alfred
Packer from the penitentiary. Ander-
son conceived plan by which he
thought he could secure Packers free
dom and partly developed 1t. He was
dismissed by Messrs. Tammen and
Bonfils, who alleged that he violated
an agreement. He went to the offices
of the Post. on January 1G, 1900 to
discuss the case with the two men, and
before he left n dispute occurred, in
which Anderson said that he was at
tackled and beaten. He drew his re-
volver and fired four shots, wounding
Mr. Bonfils severely and intiicting less
er injuries upon Mr.. Tammen. Ander-
son asserted that lie fired the shots in
self-denfense.

against Cuban competition. The Louis
lana cane growers will advance the
same claim. Henry Y. Oxnard, leader
of the beet sugar industry and also in
terested In Louisiana cane. will lead
the intellectual side of the battle for
the development Of domestic sugar.
Said Mr.. Oxnard:
II estimate that we will produce
100000 tons of beet sugar in the Unit
ed States this year. In ten years am
certain that the beet product of the
United States, If 1t continues to re-
ceive protection. will reach 2,O0O,OOO
tons n year. which 1t nearly equal TO
our present annual consumption.
"Mr. Havemeyer has declared in IA
vor of letting In raw sugar from
Cuba free. At the same time he would
increase the duty on refined to one
half cent per pound in order TO protect
still further the product of his rein
cries. Mr.. Havcmeyer's ultimate OBJ
ject Is the annexation of Cuba. He
has duty now on refined sugar OF
three tenths Of Il cent pound, eQuiva-
lent to the cost of refining
AN annex Cuba would mean Ameri-
can prices in that island for labor and
supplies. But 10 continue to treat
Cuba as foreign territory and at the
