"E sugar and cane products is
the free sugar schedule of
the last session that failed of agree
ment between the two Houses and
would admit free of duty sugar, tank
bottoms, syrups of cane juice, me-
lada, concentrated melada, concrete
and concentrated molasses, molasses
generally, maple sugar, maple syrup,
refined syrup, glucose or grape su-
gar and sugar cane. 1t would tax

valued at Is cents a pound or less
and sugars after being refined, when
tinctured, colored or in any way
adulterated, two cents a pound or if
valued at more than Is cents
pound, 25 cents advalorem.
The tariff on sugar now amounts
to about one and one-half cents
pound, say the Democrats in basing
their estimate of the effect Of the
free sugar proposition. The House
leaders are not sure of free sugar in
the Senate.
The American Sugar Refining
Company went en- record at the out
set of the hearing in favor of a re-
duced tariff upon sugar, retention of
the small differential duty upon re-
fined sugar, eff protection is to be
accorded to any industry" and the
continuance of the present color
standard as the most practicable dis
tinctiOn between raw and refined
sugars for custom houses classified
tiOns. It opposed the abolition of
all duty upon sugar on the ground
that it would destroy at once one Of
the largest sources Of revenue. The
American Company's position. was
presented by Edwin F. Atkins, Vice
President and acting head of the
company, who was accompanied by
several other officials. Mr.. Atkins
cOntended that abolition of all duty
on all sugar would cause the termi-
nation of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty under which Cuban sugars
get preferential rate of 20 per
cent, and Cuba gives preferential
rates Of 20 to 40 per cent upon goods
coming from the United States
markets to the importation of re-
fined beet sugars from Europe upon
the same terms as raw sugars in
competition with domestic refined.
Free sugars, while present pro-
ductiOn is maintained" he said,
would drop prices here so low as to
destroy the Louisiana industry, the
beet sugar industry, particularly
east Of the Mississippi river; would
depress Porto Rican and Philippine
sugars far below their production
cost and make Hawaiian production
Improbable, thus largely curtailing
our present sources of supply.
"Once this production is so re-
duced," declared Mr.. Atkins, ''for-
eign prices would advance until do
nestle producers could again enter
the field and meanwhile disaster
would be widespread and consum-
ers would get but a temporary bene-
fit"
Frank G. Lowrey, of New York,
representing committee of whole
sale grocers, contended that whether
or not sugar were placed on the free
list, a countervailing duty clause
should be enacted similar to that in
the present tariff law. He sug-
gested consideration of a consump-
ton tax as q strictly revenue meas
ure.

STEEL MEN ALSO WANT TARIFF.
At the hearing on the metal sched-
ule S. P. Ker, Of Sharon, Pa, presi-
dent of the Sharon Steel Hoop Com
pany, advocated changes in the
importers taking advantage of it's
terms. Mr.. Ker told of plans now
under way by the United States Steel
corporation to advance the wages of
its common laborers and artisans
and mechanics on February / by ap-
proximately 10 per cent.
Representative Fordney, OF Michi-
gan, estimated that this would mean
an added outlay Of 100000.
Mr.. Ker expressed optimism as to
the future Of the steel industry, re-
CARELESS of what action the Demo-
cratic administration might take.
He said the industry was practically
limitless in it's possibilities and he
urged protection against invasion
from abroad. He added that if the
industry were disturbed the compa-
MES would reduce labor to the point
of meeting with the competition.
w. H. Bonner, Of Pittsburg, presi-
dent of the Cambria Steel Company,
setting forth that that company
owned properties worth $75,O0O,OO0
and employed $4,000 men, manufacS.
turing last year more than l 100000
tons of rails, structural bars, rods
and wire nails, urged specific duties
On iron and steel products. He con-
tended that the duty on ferro-man-
ganese, used largely in steel manu-
facture, should be no higher than
pig iron and that to increase the duty
on it would be unfair to all the
smaller companies that compete with
the United States Steel Corporation.
He said that in periods of depression
that are bound to come, foreign
manufacturers will dump large ton
nages on our Atlantic, gulf and sea-
board cities at cost, to help pay fixed
charges, an invasion meaning loss
to American capital, idleness for
thousands of workmen and curtail-
ment of further expansion of the
American steel industry.
r. T. Jennings, representing the
Carpenter Steel Company, of Penn
sylvania, urging the present tariff
law, testified that the labor cost of
production in the ~crucible steel in
dustry was about 40 to SO per cent
of the total cost, which, he said, in
response to Chairman Underwood,
was much greater than in the Besse-
mer or open hearth steel business.
E. P. Re;chelm, of New York,
wanted the present tariff retained on
the products Of the file and tool in
dustry.
During the discussion Mr. Ker ad-
vocated dumping clause to prevent
the sending Of goods into this coun-
try at prices lower than in the coun-
try of production.
eff we had dumping clause in
this metal schedule" asked Chair
man Underwood, don't you think
that the rates fixed in our metal bill
last session would be sufficient"
Il don't think that is so. We
don't know as to that yet"
Mr.. Underwood asked as to the
reasons for the United States Steel
Corporations proposed increase of
wages.
Mr.. Ker said he thought chat the
corporation was taking time by the
forelock to hold it's labor"

Company, of Waltham Mass, also
