The strikers take very hopeful view
of the situation. and while they are pre-
pared for protracted struggle. they be
lieve that the employers will shortly ac-
cede to their demands for minimum
rate of s2.3n a day. ard that they will all
return to work. They further ask one

double rates for sundays and legal holi-
days.

is the cordial feeling which exists be-

they have been working. The men speak
only in the highest terms of the employ
ers. and state that they are only taking
the stand to prevent the employers frorr
using them as clubs against each other in

as to the ownership OF the Cuban sugar

absolutely that the Sugar Trust did rot

benefit by the reduction.

William Alden Smith tRep., Mich), a

the discussion the benefits to be derived
by the Sugar Trust M. Payne declined
to he interrupted. saying he would only
discuss the question OF Cuban reciprocity.
The bill won't hurt America he said.
''aud it will benefit Cuba. keeping new
Government from bankruptcy
In response to question, Mr.. Payne
said he was not anxious that Cuba should
be a part Of the United States, but he
did not have bit OF doubt but that some
day Cuba would come into the Union
Mr.. william Alden Smith recalled a
speech made by Mr.. Payne five years ago.
in which he stood for protection for the
beet sugar industry in the United States:
In this speech Mr.. Payne said he woufd
not ask for change OF the protection
laws lOr DPet sugar lOI tN'hty 'N"- -
no Thought of War.
Mr.. Payne admitted the speech as his
own. but said that when he made it there
was no thought of war with Spain with
its astounding results. The 90 per cent
reduction. he declared. would mean moth
ing to the United States, and it is Amer
ica's duty to fulfill pledge made to the
Cubans.
Mr. Newlands in opposing the bill di-
rected attention particularly TO the fact
that il would not cheaper sugar any TO
the American consumer. He SAID that
the entire sugar product OF Caba COM
bined with our own. including that OF Ha-
waii and Porto Rico, only equaled about
two-thirds OF our consumption. leaving
one-third still to be imported and paid
for at the worlds price plus the duty
rates of the Dingley law.
This one-third thus dutiable at $3i
ton would continue to tx the price Oh su-
gar in the American market and the
American consuming public would not be
benefited in the smallest degree. The
people of the United States would still
have to pay. as they do now some S30,00O.-
OG0 or 800. .O00. .06e a year more for their
sugar than they would have to AT the
worlds price of that staple.
The bill. he said. was ostensibly in the
interest of Cuba. and for the first time
in history we find the american Congress
shaping the revenue laws of the country
in the interest of a foreign people. l.eav-
ing the possible advantages to the Sugar
Trust out of consideration the benefits
must. it would seem, inure wholly TO the
Cuban planters.
