The Railroads and Sugar Ship.
pers Charged With Having
i 5;s.ts ~ ~ ia 81 sstlts i. .s ..4' g
Gentlemen.s Agreement

Washington, Aug. "a secret un-
derstanding as to rebates apparently
exists between the railroads and
sugar shippers, in the opinion Of
Harry e. Bells, tariff rate expert
of Philadelphia, who appeared today
before the house sugar trust investi-
eating committee to explain the ques-
ton Of sugar freight rates. Mr.. Bel
lis said he had not brought the mat
ter to the attention of the interstate
commerce commission because he had
learned Of 1t only recently. He de-
clared the railroads did not charge
by gross rates on sugar shipments
and that this meant a saving Of con-
siderable money to the American
Sugar Refining company. He was not
sure, he said. but he supposed the in
dependents received similar rebates.
"And this is one way. asked Rep
resentative Sulzer, "the railroads and
shippers have Of defeating the law?'
"Yes."
"Why do not the railroads in their
published freight rate tariffs men
ton this reduction for tare?"
Il do not know" said Mr.. Bells.
"Yet 1t is an important matter. The
railroads are supposed to charge on
gross weight, but do not"
Truman G. Palmer, secretary of the
American Beat Sugar association,
concluded his testimony before the
committee with an account OF the
costs of production of sugar in the
Philippines, Hawaii, Cuba and Java.

INSURGENT CONGRESSIONAL
Republican Leaders Propose That the
Presidential Campaign Tocsin Of
1912 Shall Be Sounded by President
on This Trip.

Washington. Aug. 5.-The most i'm
portant trip President Taft has
planned since he has been in the
white house, In the view of the Repub-
lican leaders. is the one during which
he is expected to open the 1912 presi-
dental campaign for his party, which
will begin September 16. 1t will last
at least four weeks and should it
later be decided necessary, the trip
will be extended to six weeks, 80 that
the president will not get to Beverly
or Washington until November.
According to the plan so far drawn
up at the white house, the president
will visit most of the states in the
middle west, north Of and including
Missouri and will make incursions in
to practically all the states which
have progressive congressional dele
cations. The president so, far has
given almost no consideration to the
speech making on his trip, but it has
long been the idea of the Republican
leaders that he would make as many
political addresses as possible west
Of the Mississippi.

White WROTE
HIS FAREWELL
Was Afraid His Lorimer Ex-
posure Would Lead to
Foul Play

Washington, Aug. 5.-Fears that he
might meet with foul play as result
of his exposure of the Senator Lori
mer cases, according to the testimony
given today by the confessed bribe
taker, Charles A. White, caused him
to write a farewell letter to his par
ents in which he said he had told the
truth in his story. White claimed this
letter was stolen from his satchel in
a Chicago hotel. White said copy
Of letter he wrote to Senator Frazier
of Tennessee also was stolen.
To his story of how he claims he
was bribed to vote for Lorimer White
added that he believed every one of
the fifty-three Democrats who voted
for Lorimer did so for a money con-
sideration. He added that he thought
some of the Republicans who voted for
LOrimer got money for so doing. White
declined to mention the names of any
Republicans he suspected because 1t
is just a matter of opinion and 1 do
not want to do an injustice to any
one," he said he based his opinion
about wholesale corruption on the fact
that he was bribed and that others
confessed they also were bribed.
White declared that the record in
the first Lorimer investigation was
wrong in reporting him as saying he
would have sold" his story to SEN
ator Lorimer If the senator had given
him SIS 900 for his confession" manu-
script in response to Whites letter.
'tIt should read, might have sold {"
said White. He added that he might
have turned his manuscript over to
Lorimer for $4,000, because that
amount hight have been all the evil
dence necessary for him to prove his
exposure which he said he was plan
ming to do for the good of the public.
Attorney Hanecy was allowed to ask
White If detectives from the states
attorneys Office in Cook county took
hi INTO the "red light district" White
said he did not know the location Of
the district" but when 1t was de-
scribed he testified they took him
there.

able to agree upon compromise and
asked to be relieved of this respon-
sibility. The full committee then
made an effort to reach an agreement
but it failed. 1t was then decided to
let Underwood and LaFollette try
again and the bill was turned over
to them, together with the farmers
free list bill, over which there are
also serious differences between the
senate and the house. "It will be
several days before we will be ready
to report" said Chairman Under
wood.
Democratic leaders In the house be-
lleve that they have enough votes to
pass the wool tariff revision over
President Taft's vote, if necessary. The
free list bill, which has been sent to
the same committee is to be consid-
cred at the same time. Mr. Under
wood said that while separate reports
would be brought in, both bills un-
doubtedly would be discussed together.
This gives the house Democrats addi-
tional trading stock in negotiating for
a compromise on the measures.
The cotton tariff revision bill, pass
ed by the house late yesterday, was
sent to the senate, which requires
report on the measure by August 10.
Senator Penrose, as chairman, has
called a meeting of the finance COM
mittee for 10:30 o'clock tomorrow
morning, and when the senate con-
venes tomorrow, Mr.. Penrose probably
will report the bill back with an ad-
verse report. This was the procedure
followed with reference to the wool
and free list bills.
The effect that the changing tariff
situation will have upon adjournment
of congress is matter for conjecture.
In both houses the leaders do not be-
lieve that consideration of the ctoton
bill by the senate necessarily will
prevent adjournment between August
IL and August Is. Mr.. Penrose said
and Mr.. Underwood advanced the
sued in the senate there was no rea-
son to believe that congress would
be in session more than a week or
two.
The house committee on ways and
means already has begun work on the
iron and steel tariff, which is the
schedule on which William j. Bryan
attacked Mr.. Underwood and on which
Mr.. Underwood replied, with the
unanimous support of the house Dem
ocrats.
"1n congress continues in session an
iron and steel revision bill will be
brought in at this session." said Mr..
Underwood. eff there is to be an
early adjournment, then the iron and
steel bill will be ready for action when
congress assemblies in December"
The insurgent leaders of the senate
are likely to bring the iron and steel
tariff up at once in the senate fight
on the cotton bill. Senator Cummins
of Iowa is anxious to make the senate
consider steel and iron revision, and
revision of the rubber and sugar
schedules, as amendments to the cot
ton tlriff bill. He has declared that
if the woolen or other textile tariff
rates are to be changed, there ought
to beimmediate changes in the tariff
on all machinery and supplies which
American manufacturers are compelled
to use so there will be no unjust dis
elimination against American indus
tries.
