Protracted Struggle in Empire State
Brought to Close by Selection
of Tammany Hall Man.

Albany, n. Y, April 1.-Supreme
Court Justice James A. OCorman.
Democrat, of New York city, was elect.
ed United States senator By the legis.
lature after the most protracted strug.
gle over this position ever held in the
Empire state. On the final ballot, the
sixty-fourth, he received fl2 votes to
80 cast for Chauncey NJ. Depew.
whose term expired March 4.
The result was in doubt almost to
the minute of recording the votes.
owing to the uncertainty as to how
many of the Democratic insurgents.
who for over two months had prevent
ed an election because of their opposi-
ton to William F. Sheehan, would en-.
ter the second caucus, which had been
adjourned from day to day since Mon
day.
At the close OF day of almost con
tinuous negotiations the insurgents
capitulated and Justice O'Gorman was
elected. A few minutes before the bal
lot was cast Justice O'Gorman's resig-
nation from the bench was filed at the
Office of the secretary of state as
constitutional provision would have
prohibited his election while holding
the office of justice of the supreme
court.
Dix Expresses Qualification.
Wild applause marked the end of
the long contest and the legislature.
driven from the state capitol by
Wednesdays fire, quickly adopted
resolution adjourning until April II.
Governor Dix expressed qualification
at the result.
Charles +. Murphy, leader Of Tam.
many Hall, who for weeks has been
striving to bring about the election Of
Mr. Sheehan, expressed himself as
highly pleased at the outcome.
James A. O'Gorman has long been
one of the most prominent members
OF Tammany Hall. He has been one
of its foremost orators for thirty
years, having established his reputa-
ton as public speaker in its inter
ests when. at the age of twenty-one,
his eloquence was credited with hav-
ing saved doubtful assembly dis
trict.
The new senator from New York
will support all the progressive poll
cies Of the Democratic party and will
join hands with President Taft in
urging reciprocity with Canada and
the fertilization of the Panama canal.

Coal TO the Coast.
NORFOLK, Va, Sept, 22.-Extraor-
dinarily heavy shipments of coal to
the Pacific coast by the Navy Depart
ment is causing no end of gossip in
marine circles. It is the belief here
that some grave movement is afoot
of which the public is yet in ignor-
ance. Steamer after steamer has
sailed from this port for San Fran
cisco, Bremerton and other ports on
the western coast with cargoes of
coal for the United States govern
ment. The amount of coal already
accumulated on the Pacific is enor-
nous, and more is being sent as fast
as the big steamers can carry it.
The photographic office at this port
has received advices from Washing
ton that three more steamer loads of
coal will be sent from this port to
the Pacific coast this month. Coal
selected by the government is of the
finest quality and is inspected before
being loaded on the vessels.
Attacks Army Maneuver Camps.
WASHINGTON, Sept %. - The
maneuver camps of the army, under
present plans, are sharply criticised
by Brigadier General Tasker H. Bliss,
commanding the Department of Cali
fornia, as failing to accomplish their
primary purpose OF training the sol
diers under war conditions.
In report to the War Department,
General Miles also points out that
there is "wasteful and indefensible
use of the nations money in the
transportation of these encampments
of militia organizations which have
not received the preliminary training
essential to participation in the
broader maneuver instruction

PACIFIC COAST MAY HAVE ONE
Of LARGEST SUGAR REFINERIES

cisco, the foundation of whose great
fortune was laid in the manufacture OF
sugar, is the principal owner of the
Federal Sugar Refining Company.
At present the companys sole re
finery is at Yonkers, N. Y, but it is
planned to build a refinery somewhor
on the Pacific Coast within a year or
so. The capacity of the Yonkers plant
IS 1000 barrels Of refined sugar a day.
Assistant Secretary Plat of the
Federal Company said today that he
understood the first expansion of the
ccmpany's manufacturing capacity
would be the enlargement of the Yonk-
ers plant. The company will then
turn it's attention to the Pacific Coast
and construct out there one of the
largest sugar refineries in the world.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-Semi-ofhcial
announcement was made today of prep
arations being made for the inaug'
uration at an early date of fierce war
on the sugar trust by the Federal
Sugar Refining Company.
The fight will be carried even into
Congress, where the owners of the
Federal company will plead for the to-
tai abolition of the tariff rates on both
raw and refined sugar.
They will present facts and figures
to show that sugar tariff is no longer
needed and that sugar is produced
in the United States at a lower cost
than in any other part of the world.

CONGRESS TAKES STEPS FOR A
THOROUGH INVESTIGATION OF
AFFAIRS OF SUGAR INTERESTS

people are paying to the Sugar Trust
each year many million dollars as a
pure bonus that comes from the joint
operation of your tariff on refined sug
ar and from the organization Of this
great combination.
Every man in this Republic, when
he sits down to his breakfast table
and puts sugar in his coffee or sugar
in his tea or sugar on his fruit, is pay
ing tribute to this system that your
protective-tariff system has built up
and fostered to such an extent that it
Expresses every American consumer.
On this side of the Chamber we say
that if the prescription given in 1890
by the famous Republican statesman
at the other end of the Capitol, the
late Senator John Sherman, of Ohio,
is efficacious, we want to use it. We
say if this thing can be stopped if
this tendency to combine, to monopol-
ize, to forestall the markets, and to
engross trade can be stopped by the
operation of criminal Statutes, we
want to know, first, why they have not
been enforced, and, second, we want
to see if they can not be enforced in
the future, for the benefit and protec-
ton of the American people. We be-
lieve that the adoption of this resolu-
ton and the appointment of good,
strong investigating comittee under
its provisions will give to the various
statements that are already circulat-
ed about this American Sugar Rein
ing Co., and it's allies, official stamp,
and will enable the people of America,
Of every section and of every party,
to understand how they have been OPP
pressed in this matter, and how the
protective-tariff system, with it's re-
sulting trusts and combinations, has
oppressed them all.''
Representative Mann, republican
floor leader, and other republicans,
disclaimed any desire to prevent such
an investigation if its real purpose was
to find out economic facts and not
political ammunition. Former Speak
err Cannon, voicing this sentiment,
said:
81 am told that, for instance, in
Germany, while they are large ex-
porters and producers of sugar under
bounties paid upon exports, the retail
price to the consumer there is higher
that the retail price to the consumer
here. do not vouch for the truth
OF that statement. Whether this reso-
luton is broad enough to cover a full
investigation touching sugar l do not
know. If it is not, then in my judg
ment it ought to be amended, because
this investigation is of no use what
ever unless it be an investigation con-
Quoted fairly, without prejudice, for
the sole purpose of ascertaining the
facts, and finding whether there be
abuses that require additional legisla
ton. If the gentleman voices the
intention of that side Of the House
touching this investigation, l am in
clined to think it is to be made to
show that a certain economic policy
is not wise policy; that it is to be
a whoop la, for use upon the stump, to
