ized that amendment as the only thing
that would make the measure reciprocal.

agreement with the California and Ha-
waiian Sugar company closing down the
latter's sugar factory and keeping II out
of the cane sugar market for three years
This is one OF the allegations in the gov
ernments bill In the sugar case. Mr..
Spreckles said counsel assured him the
transaction was entirely legal.
The California Hawaiian company, he
said, had lost about 100000 the year before.
They had heavy raw sugar holdings In
Hawaii and wanted to close down their
plant
They asked US to lease their plant for
three years and with 1t their contracts for
Hawaiian sugar,S said spreckles. 4 agreed
to lease 1t with the proviso that we get all
their sugar. about $4,000 tons a year, and
paid the company $4,000 a year for the
plant. They had been cutting prices and
lost money until they wanted to get out"
Was there an agreement that II neces-
sary you could go In and Use the factory?"
asked Representative Madison.
Yes If our factory was disabled we could
use that factory"
Mr.. Spreckles said he feared the lease
was destroyed in the San Francisco fire
Mr.. Spreckles agreed with the other beet
sugar witnesses that removal of sugar tar

Take part of the tariff off," he said land
only the larger companies would survive.
Even they eventually would be forced to

GOMpERS CASE IS REOPENED
Committee of Lawyers Finds Labor
Leader Guilty of Contempt.
HEARING rs SET FOR JULY II
Gompers, Mitchell ana Morrison Are
Required by Judge Wright to
show why They should
Not BE Punished.
From Cleveland Leader.

WASHINGTON, June 26-Justice Daniel
T. Wright OF the district supreme court to-
day issued rule against Samuel Gompers
Frank Morrison and John Mitchell, the
labor leaders, requiring them to show
cause on July II why they should not be
Judged guilty of contempt of court. This
action followed the filing of the report Of
the special committee OF attorneys ap-
pointed by Justice Wright to inquire into
the matter of contempt proceedings irhthe
Bucks Stove and Range boycott case
Mr.. Gompers is president, Mr.. Morrison
secretary and Mr. Mitchell a vice president
Of the American Federation Of Labor.
The contempt proceedings against the
labor leaders recently were passed upon by
the United States supreme court. which set
aside jail sentences heretofore imposed by
Justice Wright. The supreme court held
that the CONTEMPT on which Justice
Wright formerly passed was, of a civil ma
ture and against the Bucks Stove and
Range company.
In dismissing the former proceeding,
however, the supreme court gave to the
district court a right to reopen the case In
the event that any contempt OF the court
itself or It's orders could be found.
Inasmuch as the stove company and the
American Federation of Labor have ad-
1usted their differences It is not supposed
the matter would be pushed further, but
the day following the decision Justice
Wright appointed committee OF three
lawyers TO inquire into all the circum-
stances OF the case and TO determine
whether or not there had been a contempt
of court itself. The committee consisted
Of ]. ]. Darlington, Daniel Davenport and
James NJ Beck.
Mr.. Gompers questioned the fairness OF
an inquiry by these men. inasmuch as they
all had been associated as counsel for the
stove company against the federation.
