SUGAR WAR COSTS
MILLIONS IN Cash.
Effort Of Trust to Drive a
Rival Out Of Business Is
Described by ArbuckIe
Manager.

Washington, June William G.
Gilmore, managing partner of Arbuckle
Bros of Brooklyn, resumed the stand
today in the House sugar trust inveSti-
cation, and described the war made on
the American Sugar Refining company
by his firm in 1S9S-99. The Arbucllles
began manufacturing refined sugar in
1898 and since then has been independ
ent of the trust.
We cut the price 25 points under
the trust price soon after we started
in West Virginia and Ohio" said Mr.
Gilmore, because the trust sought to
induce the wholesale grocers in those
states to buy sugar exclusively from
the American. This was i'm 1903.
we kept the price down four and
five months and got the business in
those states. Eventually the price re-
turned to normal. but the American
never did get back all its business in
those states.''
Enormous Losses.
The American first cut the price
under Arbuckles, the witness said, from
10 to Is points and when this was met
the trust began q campaign to procure
exclusive contracts. Drastic price cut
ting ceased about the close of 1890.
During that period Mr. Gilmore said
his firm lost in the sugar business about
s1.o50,0O0. he witness also related
how, after the Arbuckles went into the
sugar business the American engaged
in the coffee business, estabiishing a
coffee plant at Toledo. Ohio. This re-
taliation was under the direction of II.
o. Havemeyer.
at was intended as destructive COM
petition" MIR. Gilmore said. ito dis
credit the package coffee business and
they ram it to the ground in four or
five years.
Sugar Wars Ended.
Nj Gilmore told the committee to-
day that trade sugar wars in this
country had practically ceased and
thar conditions in the trade were very
fair though not ideal.
where does the condition fall
short?" Representative Madison asked.
The cane sugar refners are not
making enough money.
He attributed this to overproduction,
too much refining capacity, the beet
sugar industry as now protected. etc.
',If we took the duty off sugar, what
would happen?"
..C,heaper sugar We would operate
with half the capital. and the beet
sugar people would be kept at home.
We do not like it when the beet sugar

ANOTHER POOR MEMORY

Washington, June 29-Edward Hines,
the Chicago lumberman millionaire,
who, it has heen testified, said "he put
Lorimer over at Springfield" was today
excluded from the room where the Sen
ate committee is holding it's invests
cation into the election of Senator Lori
mer This action was taken by the
committee at an executive session.
The committee considered 1t advisable
that Mr.. Hines should be permitted to
listen to the testimony. Since Clarence
S. Funk, of Chicago, took the stand,
Mr.. Hines has been allowed to be pres
ent in the committee room and hear
the witnesses, whose evidence largely
had centered about his alleged remarks
about the Lorimer election expense.
One More Poor Memory.
Russ -Culyer, a lumberDlan and Law
yer, of L'Anse. Mich, was the first Wit
ness today. When the Lorimer inves-
tigation was on before the Helm COM
mittee of the Illinois legislature, Shelly
B. Jones, of Marquette Mich. was re-
ported to have stated that Culver was
present on an occasion in 1909 when
Edward Hines. millionaire lumberman,
declared ne had Just succeeded in
making a United States senator that
cost S1G0,000." Jones testified yesterday
WAS simply that Lorimer's election,
presumably to tho House, probably
cost a barrel of money"
AS soon as Mr. Culver was sworr the
committee went into executive session,
after which he began his testimony by
saying the he had been mayor OF
Marquette Mich. He then told of bust
ness relations with Edward Hines. Con-
tradicting some OF the testimony 1T the
Springfield investigation he said he had
not seen uHines since Lorimcr's elec-
ton to the Senate.

CUMM|NS OFFERS
AMENDMENTS TO

Iowa Senator Would Give the
Farmer as Well as Consumer
Some Relief in the
Pending Bill.
FOR BROADENING THE PACT
Makes Speech on Taft Meas
ure, Which He Character
ICES as Drama Being
Acted in Senate"

Washington, June 29.--Referring to
the consideration of the Canadian reci-
procity question as the drama now
in progress in the Senate of the United
States" Senator Cummins. OF Iowa,
today delivered speech on the recl-
procity bill and offered important
amendments to the agricultural pro-
vision. No attempt was made by the
republican leaders at the opening of
the session to fix date for vote
on the bill.
Senator Cummins said it was appar-
ent republicans and democrats favor
ing the bill had determined TO submit
to the repeated statement that the
president would accept no amendments
to the Canadian agreement.
II make no comment on this situa-
ton" said he, save that it seems TO
me an abdication of the duties of the
Senate and an abandonment of the
responsibilities"
Critscises the Combine.
Senator Cummins attacked the com
blnation of regular republicans and
democrats to pass the reciprocity bill.
1T seems to be conceded" he said,
that a minority of the republican
senator's, most of whom have advocat-
ed high and indcfensible duties in the
tariff law on manufactured products,
have professed adherence to the prin-
ciple of tariff for revenue only. pur-
pose to pass this reciprocity bill with
out change.
The BILL, he said. will accomplish
only two important things: admit free
of duty the agricultural products of
Canada and admit a small quantity of
wood pulp and print paper"
After the passage Of the bill through
this combination, Senator Cummins
said, the democrats expected to make
a combination with republicans who
favor tariff revision to pass other bills.
Whacks Standpatters.
"It is perfectly plain to me-" he
added that the republicans whom
have mentioned will be valiant enough
in defense OF the high duties for the
rich and powerful manufacturers"
Senator C'umminS amendments pro-
posed to admit free from Canada both
raw and manufactured agricultural
products. including fresh meats, can
ned meats, barley. malt. flour. iron,
steel, wooden goods. cotton goods, silk
and leather goods. These amendments
apply only on the American side of the
line.
The speaker protested against the
"usurpation of the executive power" by
the president and declared he did not
believe the president could lawfully
make q proposal to Canada or receive
one from that country. He declared
congress was the only power that could
make q proposal for reciprocity. Sena-
| tor CumminS announced he would co-
operate in any attempt to get lower
duties in other tariff bills.
