Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 1S.-The
hearing given by the House ways and
means committee on the sugar sched.
ule OF the Payne-Aldrich tariff act
passed with sHch rush and hurry
that apparently but little was accom-.
plished. The information obtained is
presumably to be used in framing a
revision measure. The sugar schedule
was combined with. wines and liquors
But little opportunity was given for
oral arguments, Everybody was in
vited to leave a brief.
Judge Sidney ,Ballou appeared be-
fore the. ways and means committee
for the Hawaiian sugar interests. He
did not request any time for verbal
presentation OF facts but took advan
tage of the permission allowed anc
filed a strong brief. He clearly sc
forth the necessity of continued pro.
lection for the sugar-producers of Ha.
waii. He made 1t perfectly plain that
any material reduction in duties
would destroy an industry that is es.
sential to future prosperity in the
islands.
throughout the entire hearinc 9
Judge Ballou was in attendance, close.
ly watching the interests of the Ha-
waiians. He came early and remained
on the job until the days work was
completed.

only important benefit to result from
the hearings will be the moral effect
that is likely to follow when the act
ual work of framing a sugar-revisior
measure Is taken up. He thinks i
possible that then the arguments ad,
Vanced against radical modification
will bear fruit and prevent anything
like ruinous slashing.
In any event, the Judge feels sure
the senate will never consent to {;
proposition approximating free sugaI
or any reduction in duties below the
figures contained in the Bristow sub
stitute adopted at the last session OF
Congress. He regards the sentiment
prevailing in the senate as opposed tc
any lowering of sugar rates beyond ?
point where the product can be made
at a reasonable profit.
The beet-sugar producers and the
cane-growers of Louisiana were alsC
we'll represented at the hearings.
HarbOr Funds Look Safe.
An appropriation of $225,000 is car
ried in tho rivers and harbOrs bill, as
reported to the house. for continued
Improvement Of the harbor at Homo,
lulu. 1t is believed this figure will not
be changed when the measure comes
up in the house for action.

OPPOSES RECALL

Strongly opposing the proposed
plan for recall provision" in the
new city charter. William Thompson,
prominent Republican and active in

least forty per cent OF the vote for DEL

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

Labor troubles AT Galveston nave been
adjusted. and nearly 1900 bales were
loaded there yesterday. Five Southeast
ern cotton districts had most general
rainfall of the entire season in twenty
four hours Friday. Portions of Arkan-
SIS cotton district recently had fifty
four hours OF continuous rain where
very little cotton has been picked over
the first time.
Market opened firm, to points up,
and was broad and active displaying un-
mistakable strength. Heavy buying by
spot houses continued and some of the
most sceptical were apparently willing
to concede that a large part of 1t was
for trade account
1t was reported that storm warnings
had been Issued for Gulf coast. while
official forecast indicated rains for east
ern belt over Sunday. Market receded
towards the close from the high point.
and closed steady, showing advances OF
to Is points.

trading and u wavering tendency was
evident. Before the end Of the first
fifteen minutes the list generally was
established at moderately lower

There was no evidence OF buying by

on Friday. before showing resistance.
A partial recovery occurred in tn,

finger BOWLS GONE
FROM DINING CARS
OF CENTRAL LINES
No One Uses Them as Drink
ing Cups Now, but They
Are Called Unsanitary.

And now you can't get finger bowl
on the dining cars OF any Of the New
York Central lines.
The order abol!shlng the bowls went
into effect this week. II was issued by
John +. Smart. superintendent OF all
the dining cars on all the New York
Central lines. The reason given IL that
the bowls are unsanitary. That's all
YOU can find out about It In the SUPER
lnterlent's office In the Grand Central
Depot
Why the bowls are unsanttary nobody
there seems to know. The office OF Mr..
smart Is In Buffalo. From there he
promulgated his order ana the finger
bowls passed into the shadow OF the
million mysteries OF yesterday.
Private drinking cups on trains have
long since been abolished for sanitary
reasons. on the Pennsylvania diners
one can't get a hlghball. Whether this
| is for sanitary reasons has not yet been
| ex Explained. Paper towels are being used
in many places. ami liquid soap is al
most universally used-all for sanitary
purposes.
| But why finger bowls? Nobody
drinks out of them any more. And the
| walters had been proud that their tips
! came from clean hands. Up at the
superintendent office In Lexington
avenue. the Information was Impaired
| that anyone missing the custom OF the
, finger bowls was not cnjoined from the
use of the lavatory. where soap and
! towels are to be had. There Is also a
whisper there that Mr.. Smart In a
/ progressive.
hers, they had no finger bowls. They
had no napkins. either They had NJ
| use for them in those good old days
| when a banquet was some feast. Mr.
| smart is said to be OF the belief that
the need for finger bowls doesn't exist
Each guest in dining Is supplied with
| knives, forks, spoon, and-up To the
present-with napkins. In the d!spen'
| sation OF food, from soup to nuts. there
| il no office any longer for the fingers
| SO why finger bowls?
The answer looks easy, but the matter
may yet be taken up by society. II
looks like 1t should be. There's an ex'
cellent opportunity for the airing Of
views, for it's easily, to the uninitiated
a matter of as much Importance as Sill
skirts and the tango. The Glass Trus
Will proba bly, take the matter up also.
II presents another grave question. II
the custom becomes universal, what !!
Ia become of the millions OF bowls nov
I'm use? You can have your finger bowl
