CAUCUS RETAINS
DUTY ON SUGAR

The Vote on Sugar In Democratic eau

Gus Indicates Free wool PROVISION
Will Also Win.
Washington, April 1.-THE Demo
cratic caucus stood solidly behind the
ways and means committee and voted
down overwhelmingly both the Brous-
sard proposal to retain stln protec-
tive duty on sugar and the HardWlck
proposal to place sugar on the free
list Immediately, instead of at the emo
of three years, with a duty OF one
cent a pound in the meantime.
The tide in favor of immediate free
sugar was stemmed by Chairman On
derwood in strong appeal for giving
the sugar planters three years time IN
which to adjust their affairs in the
event that they find that free sugar
will not enabel them to compete with
foreign sugar growers. Only 80 Demo
Gratis voted for the Hardwick motion
to place sugar on the free list at once
while 1875 voted for the ways and
means committee provision of one cent
for three years.
ing states and from the sugar beet
states early made their fight for pro-
lection Representative Broussard, OF
Louisiana, poposed as an amendment
to the committee provision a moderate
reduction in the Payne-Aldrich rate.
Although he received much oratorlcai
encouragement, including a strong
speech in favor of protected sugar Dy
REPRESENTATIVE Martin Dies, of Texas,
the Louisiana congressman received
but fifteen votes in favor of straight
out protection for sugar. Eight OF these
votes were furnished by Louisiana.
The wool men failed to stand by the
anas now the Louisiana
congressman are asking the western
and southwestern congressman wheth-
er they can expect aid on wool from
the sugar men. By this vote the Sit
uation is made much more hopeful for
the committees free wool provision,
as the sugar men are now declaring
they will not help to get protection
for the wool men, who failed to vote
to retain protection on sugar.
The house leaders never were in
doubt as TO the result of the effort OF
the Louisiana congressman to get pro-
lection on sugar, but they were alarm
ed over the movement to force the
committee to put sugar on the free
list at once.
The Democratic house at the last
session had adopted a free sugar bill,
and it was regarded as grave prob
lem how to get the house this time to
pass a bill that placed the duty on
sugar at one cent a pound for three
years before letting the article go on
the free list.
Especially did the situation look
serious when the movement was advo-
Gated by Representative Hardwick, of
Georgia, who was chairman of the spe-
cial committee to investigate the sugar
trust in the last congress, and was
backed by Democrats like Henry, OF
Texas, chairman of the committee on
rules.
In twenty-hve-m minute speech Hard
wick assaulted the sugar industry with
all the arguments that had been used
against it during the last few years.
He pointed to the fact that on an in
vestment of less than $150,O0O,000 the
peopel of this country were forced to
pay $52.OOO000 in protective tariffs
