AMERICANS. WERE CHARGED
 \ HIGH RATE
Average Family in This Coun- try Paid Ten Dollars More For Sugar Last Year Than English.


 WASHINGTON. Aprl 9.-Rednei sugar sol in New Scrk las, year at 4.93 cents a pound who'esa,e. The same article sold in LonGon for 2.7 censt a pound. The avviage family of five uses 400 pounds of sugar a year. VII ch means that the AmC ricaa family paid for sugar last year at east s1O more than the British fam fly. It als1 means m llions of un- earned profits 10 the sugar trust.
 It is being pointed out no effort is made in the Payne bi,l to change the s.tua.iCn. T1e sugar me enop-ly was practically permitted by ths ways and mems comm ttee to VT te ts own revi law What d'd it want? rovi ing inrcr a 10 IS from tte Philippines was limited D I1lnt far be 0w any poss bls danger to the lccal market in the Unte ates mo ncpcl zed by the sug t:ust. thr man age-s of the trust were V l!irg that the duty on re insd sugar be reduced how much?-one-tweatieth of one e nt a pound.
 Why is the Republican party pro tecting the c,lcssll profits Of the sugar trust? is being asEed. Tue may find interest 'n the frank words Of Henry o. Havemeyer, who, as prcs dent of the sugar trust, test fled bsfcre Q committee of the senate th7t was arp int d to investigate t1e ugly ofw frrer fr1- Irving t.e making of tGe tariff of 1894
 Hsyeme yer was asked about the
 selati-n of the tIust to pol cs. H. rep jed that the sugar trust made it a practice 10 contribute to the state CamIa gn funds to "tha par which e ntrcls -tse Iccll matters " What Hacyemayer alluded to as local mat tsrs7 was the election of senators and rep esentatives to Congress waere the tariff is maJs-aad of juices to the state judiciary.
 The Democrats, assisted b. a few Reprblica s. have proven tat the P yne tin s permeated with fraud from beg ming to end. There is hardy anything about the b'p, ac- corjing t9 C arges whi~h frequently 1 appear and are substantiafCd in the ! Congress- -onaI Record which is as it l was represen ed to be by Mir.
