THAT CARLISLE SCHEDULE.

The Secretary Explalns.flow HeICame 1::

That Senators Should Not s‘pec:
ulate In Wall Street.

WASHINGTON, J une 5.—Thirteen Sena-
tors, six Democrats and seven Republic
ans were in the chamber when the sen
ate entered upon the tenth week of tho
tariff debate. A resolution providing for
the payment Of the expenses of the bribery
and other investigating committees out 6)
the contingent fund was adopted. When
the tarifi bill was taken up,‘thc sugar
schedule being pending, Mr. Vest took the
floor and made a short explanation con-
eerning the controvertcd pointin last Sat-
urday’s debate as to the existence of the
Sugar trust in 1890. Mr. Aldrich and
Mr. Sherman had contended that the pres-
ent trust was not' in eXistence, and that
its stock was not listed on the New York
stock board. Mr. Vest produced some au-
thorities to show that 8, 926, 000 shares 01
the stock Of the Sugar ‘Refining company
were sold in the market in New York in
1890, which, at $100 'rcr share, represented
over $800, 000, 000. he retraced, as on Sat-
urday, the various changes made in the
sugar schedule Of the McKinley bill in
1890 as it passed through the ways and
means committee, the. house, the finance
committee of the senate and the confer-
ence. "And. yet,” he said, when he had
concluded this bit of history, ”we are
taunted with-being under the control DI
the Sugar trust.

“What principle could have induced the
finance committee of the senate to report
a duty of 70 cents on 100 pounds for
the benefit of . the Sugar trust? I know
nothing of the influence which couldhave
dictated 'such enormous protection except
that it was some influence unknown to us.

.I have the same right” to make that sug-
gestion as senators on the other side have
to continually put forth the insinuatione
concerning our motives.”
“’lrat Senator Mills Testifled.
The testimony of Secretary Carlisle and
Senators Mills and McPherson taken be-
fore the Sugar trust investigating commit-
tee was presented. Senator Mills denied.
all knowledge of the reported secret inter-
view of Secretary Carlisle on the sugar
question and said that he and Senator
.Jones and'Yest had prepared the sugar
schedule as 1 first reported, and he knew
nothing of any memorandum for the sched-
ule from the secretary. He also denied
all knowledge of the alleged Sunday con-
ference, of the finance committee with
those interested in securing sugar legisla-
tion. He said he had never heard of mem-
bers Of the Sugar trust being at the capi-
tol while he was acting as a member 01
the finance committee, and that he had
never met any ' of the members of the
trust. He then made a statement concern-
ing the letter of introduction. It was
merely a formal note containing only two
, or three lines. He declined to see Mr.
Havemeyer. Senator Mills also denied
any knowledge of contributions to the

Democratic campaign cnrrnnittea ..
Secretary-Carlisle in his testimony does

not agree with Senator J ones as to the
time and place that he (Carlisle) was
asked to put the sugar schedule into shape.
Mr. Carlisle stated that Mr. Jones had re.
quested him- to have the sugar schedule
prepared the morning of May 5 and had
come to his house for that purpose and
had handed him a memorandum stating
what he wanted done.
do this, as the service was one that the
treasury department was in the habit of
rendering the members of the finance
committee. After he went to his office
he dictated the schedule providing for the
ad valorem duty of ‘40 per cent and the
additional one-eighth of a cent on sugars
above No. 16 Dutch standard. ,
At 2 o’clock that day he went to the
capitol in response to a. telephone message,
taking his sugar schedule with him. He
found Senators Jones, Vest and McPlrer~
son and Representative Breckinridge' in
the room of the senate committee on ap-
propriations, and Senator German after-
ward camc in. “After talking some
time,” said Mr. Carlisle, “it was suggest-
ed by some one—and I am unable to say
by whom, but certainly not by rue—that
instead of having 40 per cent ad valorem
upon all sugars and one-eighth of a cent
additional upon sugars testing above 16
Dutch standard~ in color there should be
a duty of 40 per cent upon all sugars be—
low No. 16 Dutch standard in color and 45
per cent on all sugars abovelt‘rDutch stand-
ard in color, the additional 5 per cent be.
ing, as you will observe, equal to one-
eighth of the 40 ' per cent on the other
grades. ' -
Why He Wrote It. -
“That was talked about, and while it
was not agreed to—because, as I say, there
were only tw0 members of the finance
committee present, Senator Jones and
Senator Vest—it seemed to be the impres-
sion that they would submit that kind oi
proposition to the committee. _ Thereupon
some asked me it .I would not write it. I
said, ‘I will just take this amendment
which I have in my hand and interline it. ’
In’ addition ‘to that, they said they wanted
to put into the amendment a clause in re-
lation to the Hawaiian treaty. They
wanted to insert a clause that this schedule
should not abrogate or in’ any mannerirm
ir the provisions of the Hawaiian treaty
and asked me if; I could not write that
also, I said, ‘I will just take this paper
and interline it.’ He then interlined the
schedule as it had been prepared that
morning so'as to provide for ‘thc amend-
ments suggested, ‘ ' ‘
"I took out the part which providb'd for
one-eighth of a cent per pound additional
and put in the provision'for 45 per cent
ad valorem. Then I added to all thp pro—
visiOns new contained in it. with regard
to the Hawaiian treaty, just as it is to
day”. . . . ‘

“Equal and Exact sttweto allx‘Men of Whatever Stile [or "Persuasiom Religious or Politico. .”-Jofmon.'

Mr. Carlisle then told of ms vrsrt to the
capitol the next day, which was Sunday,
and explained how this visit came to be
made to correct a discrepancy in the sched-
ule which if it had not been corrected,
would have left sugar without either a
duty or a bounty between the lst of July,

. 1894, andthe 1st of January, 1895.

Senators “’orking Hard Sunday.
This error had occurred to him, and not
finding Senator Jones at his home he
had driven to the capitol to make the sug-
gestion that the hiatus should be provid-
ed for, when, to hissurprise, he had found
Senators Jones, Vest and McPherson and

' Representative Breckrnrid'ge at work on

the tariff amendments, which were to be
introduced on the following day. He was
then told that the amendment which he
hadiinterlined' had been abandoned, and

'he had simply said, “All right,”. and

come away. Closing this part of what
may be called his direct testimony, Mr.
Carlisle said: “Now, it seems to me that
some person has seen that amendment in
my handwriting, undoubtedly, from the
statement which the senator has just read
to me, and as far as I am concerned it
may be published to the whole world and
read in the senate or anywhere else. It
was simply a compliance with the request
of Senator Jones and the others present,
and‘ on that the writer has based all his
statements, I presume, though he fixes
the time in February. It was on the 5th
day of May. ” - .

Upon being asked by Senator Lodge
whether he had advised the finance com-
mittee as to whether it was better to have
ed valorem or specific duties, Mr. Carlisle
said: “I have always been in favor of an
ad valorem duty, but I do not remember
that I gave them any such opinion then.”
He knew that ad valorem duties were
advocated by the sugar refining interest.

.That Havemeyer Introduction.

With reference to the note of introduc-
tion which he gave Mr. Havemcyer to
Senator Mills he said that he wrote the
letter for him as he wrote letters for oth-
ers interested in tariff legislation to other
members of the committee. He had known
Mr. Havemcyer for a number of years, and
Mr. Havemcyer had stated that he also
knew Senator Mills, but fen-ed the latter
would not see him unless he had the note.
He had never refused to write such a let-
ter if he thought the man who requested
it was a gentleman.

H. O. Havemcyer had called to see him
about the tariff legislation on sugar, as had
also Mr. Scarles and Henry R. Reed 01
Boston, and all had talked about this
matter, but he could not remember what
they had said. There had been, however,
no intimation from any of them that the
Democratic party was under obligations
to the Sugar trust.

“If you want to give my information,
derived from a member of the committee,
I willpgay that the Sugar trust gave noth:
innghathver to the Democratic campaign
fund. This is merely from hearsay. I
know nothing about it personally.”

Mr. Carlisle denied in emphatic terms
that he had ever made 'a secret eall upon
the finance committee or made a demand
upon them to protect sugar because of the
Democratic party’s obligations to the Sug-
ar trust.

Senator McPherson's Testimony.

Senator McPherson’s testimony is de
voted largely-to an explanation of stock
purchases and the method of conducting
them. He said that he had agreed with the
finance committee as to the sugar sehcd
1110. “I did not, ” he said, “favor the
sugar schedule presented, and I did rave
some over that,” but he‘ added that he had
never said anything about the Democratic
party’s'being under obligations to morn
bers of the Sugar trust. He. said that it
his counsel had been taken the Wilson
bill would have been accepted by the sen-
ate committee without amendment. He
believed in free sugar if it could be made
free and a sufficient amount of revenue
secured. Nevertheless he had ofi'ered sug-

ar amendments in committee providing

for a specific duty of 1 cent per pound on

' sugar testing 80 degrees and a gradual in-

crease of about 1 mill additional for
each degree for refined sugar; He said he
had never come in contact with any of the
sugar refiners except Mr. Searles, who

~ had called on him at his house and re-

monstratcd against’ the schedule he had
presented in committee. He repeated that
he never knew of any obligations to the
Sugar trust, but he had heard the state-
ment made that the sugar refiners were
in the habit of giving the Democratic side
a small contribution and the Republicans
a large one.

Mr. MOPhersou stated that while he
kept an. office in Wall street and he had
been in the habit for the past seven or
eight years of buving stocks as an invest
ment and'selling them, he had not consid-
ered himself an operator in the usual. ac-
ceptation of the term. He said that in
addition to the purchases of sugar stock
made by his son in February, he had pur-
chased some sugar stock in October and
November and had sold it in December,
when congress convened.

Questions put . by Senators Allen and
Davis developed the fact that Senator Mc-
Phersou's son had made a profit of about
$1,000 on the stock" bought on the :32d and
sold on the .‘26th of February. '

That Senator Allen (Nels) pressed the
inquiry very close may be. seen from the
following: .

“And you knew of cours‘~ ._; . legisla
tion looking to putting a t..‘ ' sugar
would have the natural tcmlcxuy to in-
crease the value Of sugar stock?"

“Yes, sir. It would have made it sell
at a higher price to outside parties.”

“And that you knew of course when
you talked with your son upon this sub-

- ject?”

“Yes,- sir. I knew that.”

“Let me ask you if you think it is advis-
able for a United States senator to specu-
late either directly or indirectly in stocks

whose values may be affected by legisla-__
' tion or proposed legislation?"

I do not think" it~is right to

‘No. sir.
hence have

speculate inthose stocks, and
never done so. " . —
“Do you believe a man who speculates
in stocks whose value would be afiected
by proposed legislation would be influ-
euccdrin his conduct as senatorby that
fact, either consciously or uncensciously?"
"‘I don’t think ownership in' any- kind
of property would influence uny-voto in
the least.” ‘ ,

statement that an efi‘o'rt which had been
' instigated by men of great prominence
’in the Democratic party had been made ta
cause Mr. Warner to cease his fight for
free sugar while the tariff bill was pend-
ing in the house.’ Mr. Warner, said that
the suggestion had been made to him that
if there was not a duty on sugar the Sn-
‘gar trust would beat the bill, but be de-
clined to state from whom the suggestion
had‘come. ,

In regard to the alleged Democratic
campaign contributions by the Sugar
trust, Mr. Warner said he had often heard
it charged that there was one, possibly
amounting to $300,000, but he knew noth-
ing about it. Mr. Warner several times
refused to give the names of repesent'atives
and others with whom he had talked.

Rheumatism Cured in Three Days.

“I have been afflicted all winter with
rheumatism in the back. At times it
was so severe that I could not stand up
straight, but was drawn over on one side,”
says George A. Mills, of Lebanon, Conn.
“I tried different remedies but without
relief, until about six weeks ago, when I
bought a bottle of Chamberlain’s pain
balm. After using it for three days, ac;
cording to directions, my rheumatism
was gone and has not returned since. I
have since recommended it and given it
to others, and know they have been
benefitted by its use.” For sale by Greg-
