2l,OOO tons. Palmer said he had secur.
ed the facts upon which this statement
Is based from the official records OF
the Spanish Claims Commission, and
from statements made by witnesses be.
fore the Senate committee and the
House Committee on Ways and Means.
Palmer also presented a list OF es.
tates owned by individuals who are cit.
liens OF the United States, and who re.
side in the United States, but most OF
whom are either OF Cuban or American
birth. This list included forty-one es.
tates OF 36G,SSG acres, with an average
sugar production of 1894, 495 tons. OF
| these forty.one estates thirty.hve filed
war claims against the Government of
the United States aggregating $l3,64G,.
544.
Palmer deduced from the figures Civ.
en- in this connection that only 80 per
cent OF the product was supplied by
the farmers who do not own their own
factories.
Washington, June 3.-Senator Die.
trich OF Nebraka, who stands with the
beet sugar interests in opposition to
the reduction of the duty on Cuban SUI.
gars, as proposed by the Republican
members of the Senate Committee on
Cuban Relations, today introduced a
bill on the subject, which he thinks
viii be accepted as compromise
measure. 1t provides that the differ.
entail on refined sugar shall be abol.
ished, but that an equal amount shall
be added 10 the duty on raw sugar, and
then gives Cuba 20 per cent reduction
from this increased duty.
Sepator Dietrich SAYS that he has
consulted the President with reference
to the terms o. the bill, and that it Is
acceptable to him. He also has assur.
ed himself that 1t will be satisfactory
to the Senatorial friends of beet sugar.
In statement regarding the bill Sen.
ator Dietrich says that the object OF
| transferring the differential to the raw
sugar is that the differential is only
protection to the sugar trust, which
/ Is only an importers trust, and practi.
cally employs no American labor and
gives II monopoly for debating the
purchasing and selling price of sugar
which comes to the United States and
enaDIes II to collect from the American
people from half to three.quarters of q
cent profit on every pound of all the
sugar that is consumed in the United
States"
He argued that the proposed reduc.
tlon OF 20 per cent on raw sugar, leay.
me- the dinerential on refined sugar Ia
remain as 1t is, is unjust to the Philip
pine people, for, he says, the reduction
ON Philippine prouucts already grant
ed Is fully offset by the difference in
freight rates.

Washington, June 5.-Senator Bard
said today he was reliably informed
that the President and the reciprocity
advocates in the Senate had shown
signs OF weakening, and that the pros
poets OF the rebate plan were more
fattering than at any time heretofore
IOdays conference of the Cancellation
committees was not especially pro
duCtive, and was not expected to be in
the absence OF Senator AldriCh. He
will return tomorrow, and develop
ments of a decisive nature one way or
the other may be expected soon. The
beet sugar Senators say it nslst be a
rebate or nothing, and the stalwarts in
the House reiterate the statement
Meantime the President insists that
something must be done for Cuba.
4 significant dispatch is printed in
tOnight's New York Post from its
Washington correspondent, who is on
intimate terms with the President and
whose articles sometimes appear to
be inspired. The Evening Post strong
ly favors RECIPROCITY. The dispatch
says
Unless the Cuban reciprocity mat
ter takes on new and more promising
aspects at once we may look for spe'
cial message from the President to
Congress. This Is the expectation OF
those members who have discussed the
situation with him confidentially dur
ing the last few days. Affairs have
reached a stage which may fairly be
described as a crisis. The fate of the
proposed legislation swings on the
| finely pointed pivot of chance and
may make its final move either way.
The President has been advised by
some of his most trusted friends in the
| Senate that about the only hope of get
ting the reciprocity bill through II
this session rests with his handling OF
| his share Of the business, and they con.
slider that the time has come for him
to make a public appeal to the con.
science and patriotism Of the law-mak'
ing body"
Truman G. Palmer of Chicago was a
witness today before the Senate Com
mittee on Cuban Relations. For the
past four years Palmer has been en-
gagged in the promotion of beet sugar
interests. He gave list of seventeen
