Following is the statement Of the
contention OF the Federal Refining
people who are advocating free SUI
gar before the tariff commission. The
movement is clearly one of Cuban
sugar property owners. Gus spreck-
els, one Of the free-sugar enthusi-
asts. having admitted that he had
bought sugar lands In Cuba on spec.

duties or annexation:
Now that the Ways and Means
COMMITTEES of the Senate is consider
Ing the tariff revision, It is the gen.
eral impression that something will
be done In the near future towards
reducing the present duty on sugar.
There really seems to be no good rea-

States consumes nearly 100000
tons OF raw sugar annually, or about
an average consumption of IS
pounds per capita. or this the do

domestic beet sugar plants are locat-

vantage OF freights to most distrib-
utlng points of from 80 to SO cents
per hundred, giving them practically
E2cJ per pound protection. So that
they may reap large profits the Gov
eminent taxes every man. woman,
and child practically 5-Sc. per
pound on every pound OF sugar they
use.
The domestic sugar industry Ii
controlled by the so-called Sugar
Trust" The Louisiana producers
claim that they cannot raise 1885,,
600 tons of sugar without a large
