Manager T. II. Cutler Of the Titan
Sugar company returned from his trip
to New yolh ana Washington in time
to attend the regular meeting OF the
board OF directors of the company held
this morning at President Smiths Of
Gee The hoard was In session some
time listening to Mr. Cutters report Of
conditions as he found them In the
East. and Of his Views regarding proba
bic legislation In Congress affecting the
sugar industry
Mr. Cutler said to a News repre-
sentative after the meeting that 10 his
opinion Congress would concede some-
thing to the Cubans, though not 50
much ak they had asked for. He
thought the amount would be any
where rom "a to 1874 per cent Of the
eXlstinr torlll, He. rather thought the
higher hgut would prevail This would
mean fedLC tion OF Sc cents per hum
dred pounds taken OFF the present tf'-
ld IN favor q Cuban sugar.
Nh Cutlef .sd he was aware that
hls remarks stating that the beet sugar
interests could stand reduction OF
p per cent had been criticised, but he
could nos IN honesty take any other
course.
we have been In business about
eleven yeas said he, "al of which,
with the exception OF Il few opening
ones when the industry was being
started, have been successful. II we
were To say now TO our stockholders
aud investors, that we could not stand
a % per cent reduction without bring
ing ruin upon oui business, they might
well be alaYmcd, especially In View or
the fact that no one In the East sup
poses that such a reduction would ar
feet materially the price OF sugar. The
Cubans, themselves insist that It
would not, because they need all the
benefit of The reduction at home. Besides
The great oyershadowing question of the
future, which the beet sugar interests
VIII have TO face Is the possible annexa-
ton Of Cuba, which would mean free
sugar, 1t Will be much better to my
mind to agree on a compromise OF 20
per cent If that question can be STAYED
OF Indefinitely
As a further reason for thinking that
the concession would not affect the
price of sugar to any material extent,
Mr.. Cutler said that Cuba's production
this year was about 100000 tons, only
about one-third Of the consumption Of
the United states, When asked how
soon he looked for report from the
committee Mr. Cutler said that he
thought the question would lag for
500 e time yet There was no govern
ment in Cuba yet with which 90 make
a reciprocity treaty. Indeed the newly
elected president, Palma, had showed
signs of -aot taking his seat at al UNI
I'll the question Of a concession was set
tied, as he did not wish to rule over a
people who had no chance to make a
living
Mr.. catler states that beet contracts
for next year are being rapidly signed
by the farmers and the outlook Is good
In all directions.

WAR TAX REDUCTION.
Ways and Means Committee Report
Fayorably on Bill

Washington. Feb. 3.--The ways and
means committee of the House by UNI
anlmous vote today ordered favorable
report on the war tax reduction bill.
A surprise occurred when Representa-
tive Buhcock, (Rep.), offered his bill
largely reducing duties in the steel
schedule ald placing small articles on
the free list as an amendment TO the
tea repeal section. The amendment was
defeatci, TO 7. Messrs. Babcock and
Tawney ami all the Democrats voting
In the affirmative.
The Cuban reciprocity question also
came up Unexpectedly Representative
Steele Of Indiana, moving q % per cent
concession On Cuban sugar The mo-
ton was Withdrawn, however after u
brief exchange OF comment
The closeness of the vote on Mr., Bah
cocks amendment reducing the steel
schedule caused much comment,
Messrs Newlands and Cooper, Demo-
Gratis. and Long and Hopkins, Repub-
leans were absent. 1t was explained
on behalf Of the absent members That
they were either out Of the city or de-
tanned at important committee meetings
elsewhere and the Babcock motion was
entirely unexpected,
The motion OF Mr. Steele for 20 per
cent reduction on Cuban sugar was re-
garded as rather facetlous and az re-
joinder to the unexpected motion on the
steel schedule. Representative Robert
son of Louisiana, who Is opposed to a
reduction on Cuban sugar was among
those who voted for the Babcock
amendment. Following TINS MI Steeie
made his motion and a sharp but good
natured barley occurred between Mr.
Steele and Mr., Robertson. The latter
suggested that If any motion on sugar
was to be made Mr.. Steele should
broaden his proposition so as to include
raw and refined sugars, placing them
all on the free list. Mr. Steele did not
press the motion, however, and after It's
Withdrawal the incident was looked
upon as humorous rather than as a
serious move toward dealing with the
Cuban question,
