dramatically but throughout his long speech there

GERM4N W4GE REPORT.
Criticism of Statements Made by
American Manufacturers.

washington, June 4.-The summary Of the con-
tents Of various memorials of German chambers
of commerce and industrials establishments criti-
cising statements made by American msnufactur-
ers who appeared before the Ways and Means Com
r1ittee OF the House will be presented to the Sen
ate tomorrow by Mr Aldrich chairman Of the
Finance Committee. He considers Il a vindication
o< his action in charging that German manufactur-
ers had been 'impertinent'' in endeavoring to in
Huence Congress while tariff bill was under con-
alteration.
The statement ot M Aldricr having provoked a
rtor-n. ar abstract Of the German memorials was
prepared and the entire report ordered printed
The abstract IS ready, and the whole report will
be printed as soon as II can be translated from
the German text
II IS contended by members OF the Ways and
Means Committee that the request made through
American diplomatic and consular representatives
in Germany for facts relating to wage scales in
German industries was sent abroad before the
hearings the tariff bill began. It is shown, how
ever. that the desired information was not gath
cred by German chambers OF commerce and manu-
fscturers until after reports OF the hearings given
by the committee had been published. and that
the German manufacturers replied directly to
ments made by Americans TO the WAYS ana Means
COMMITTEES, instead Of supplying facts concerning
the wage scales
The names Of the persons who supplied informa-
ton TO chambers Of commerce were withheld by,
the eerl1sn government and so far the Finance
COMMITTEES Is concerned all the statements are
synonymous. Witnesses before the House commit

their statements in many instances are declared 70
be incorrect and misleading. and in one case Il is
asserted that the information presented was false

renaberg is the statement that the request OF
American manufacturers to raise the dutv n,

do not warrant the expenditure of the vast sums
which would be required to construct and maintain
