Sugar Forces Weakened.

Washington, March 11.-Cuban reci-
procity scored several distinct victories
yesterday in the fight which is waging
between the republican members of the
house. and the indications last night
point strongly TO vindication of the
president and the leaders of the house
by the adoption of their policy for tariff
concessions. The leaders of the sugar
beet forces confess that they have only
a fighting chance. Within twenty-four
hours their ranks have severely suffer-
ed from desertion. between thirty and
forty members, or about one-third of
their strength, having gone over to the
enemy. These inroads were scored by
sentatives who have steadfastly sup
ported the ways and means committee.
There was a stream of congressman
between the white house and the capl-
tol and from one end of that building
to the other during most of the day. 1t
did not require require much pressure
to cause the line of sugar beet forces to
waver and upon the first report of In
roads the house leaders closely pressed
their advantage. 1t is the opinion of
those who are the thick of the fight that
before the caucus meets tomorrow night
the ways and means committee will
have regained the support of majority
of the republican members of the house.
1t is generally conceded by the sugar
beet leaders that unless they can con-
troll the caucus and force the adoption
of their plans they are defeated.
