RUIN FOR SUGAR MEN.
Louisiana Planters Tell What Cut
in Tariff Would Mean.

Reduction of sugar duties would ruin
the domestic production OF cane sugar. or
free sugar would annihilate both the cane
and beet sugar industries of the country,
according to the testimony of Louisiana
sugar men before the Hardwick special
committee yesterday.
IF you solons.' declared Prof W. c.
Stubbs. former state chemist of Louisi-
ana, want to take the tariff off sugar,
you must make UP your minds in advance
that you will kill all domestic sugar pro-
duction. The big planters and retiners
Of Louisiana might manage to scrape up
enough to start over again in some trop-
ical country, but the small growers would
be ruined. When you take off the tariff
you may write our obituaries.
j. E. Burguieres, president of the
Louisiana Planters Association. declared
that a cut in the tariff would kill the
Louisiana industry, upon which 100000
American citizens depended for a liveli-
hood.
Prof. Stubbs will be recalled after the
committee returns from New York, where
hearings will be he'd, beginning today.

MISS BYINGTON NOT ABLE
TO REPLACE BONDS TAKEN
Probable That Mrs. Armour Will
Not Recover Full Amount of
Missing Securities.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, July ls.-It is
probable that Mrs. Mary Z. Armour
widow of S. b. Armour the packer, never
Will recover the full amount of the bonds
taken from her by Miss Harriet Bying-
ton, her compa Mon. This was the state
ment made last night by Miss Byington' 6
attorney, when asked if the populations
of the companion would be repaid by her
relatives
When it was first discovered that bonds
from Mrs. Armour's safety deposit box
were missing ii was announced that Miss
Byingtons brother in South America was
millionaire and would repay Mrs.
Armour for the bonds. In all about
$4,000 worth of the bonds are unac-
counted for it is said. In the suit filed
Saturday by Mrs. Armour against her
former companion 1t is sought to recover
$4,000, the total amount of bonds said
to have been taken.
According to the statement made here
by Miss Byington'S attorney. the brother
in South America is not a millionaire, or
even wealthy, but owns small e,e-;trical
supply shop and has been acting as as
SiStant United States consul. No al.swer
has been received by the attorneys to a
letter written to him more than month
ago.

POWERFUL NAVAL WEAPON.
Gun for Battleship That Sends
Prniectile Ont of Sight.

A gun that will carry its projectile out
of sight is the type that is to be placed
in the turrets of the new battleships OF
the New York type. One of these guns
has been made at the Washington fac
tory and a dozen others are to follow
as rapidly as the great lathes can turn
them out.
The gun has been tried out at the prov
ing ground aid has shown that 1t is
without doubt tie most powerful naval
weapon in the world. With muzzie
velocity of a,4i,o feet second. the shell
will have a range Of about fourteen or
fifteen miles; consequently it will land
far beyond the horizon at extreme ele-
walton. 1t might hit a ship that the gum
uers could not see: a friend or an enemy
uerhars. Hence the ordnance officers will
lie unusually careful when ships mount
ing these great guns go out for target
practice.

NEW GEYSER MAY SHOW.
Remarkable Eruptions From Hot
Springs of the Yellowstone Park

Cnlccounted for eruptions of large
quantities OF water, steam. sand and
small rocks to a height of several hun
dred feet from the hot spring in the Nor
rfs basin, in Yellowstone National Park
have been occurring during the summer
Those familiar with the park are un-
able to explain the phenomenon. They
say that as the geysers have shown no
diminution in activity the eruptfons can
not be due to diversion of steam and
hot water from the regular outlets. They
may indicate however increasing activity
in the subterranean forces to which the
geysers are due, and IL such is the case
II is possible another geyser may de-
velop in the park.

TOUR OF MARINE
BAND Is SUCCESS
Aggregation Returns with
Southern Laurels.

More than two score members of the
Marine Band. headed by their leader,
Lieut.. William H. Santelmann, returned
to Washington yesterday from a six
weeks tour of the South, in which all
tire chief cities were visited.
Somewhat weary after the long trip of
almost continuous travel but glad to re-
turn to the Capital with the laurels of the
fair Southland, the musicians dispersed
anC repaired to their homes. proud OF
their participation in a tour which
marks an epoch in the history Of the
famous band.
"Artistically, as well as financially" -
said Lieut.. Santelmann last night, "the
tour was the greatest success, and I be-
lieve I can safely say the band has more
admirers in the South than ever before.
We were enthusiastically received every
where, and packed houses greeted US at
every concert"
The tour was the elimination of a re-
quest that was almost a demand on the
part of the people of the South that they
be given an opportunity to hear the Ma
rine Band
