N0 SUGAItlinNTYNOW The Effort to Adopt It~W0uld Delay the Tariff Bill. ‘WILL COME UP IN DECEMBER The Trust Amendment ‘In the Senate. Several Members Denounce Monop- olistic Combinations as a Men- ace to the Public Weal. Washington, JUly 1—4th Republican senators decided in caucus today not do make the sugar bounty proposition 3 party measure. It was the opinion that pushing a sugar bounty provision at this time would delay the passage of the tariff bill for weeks, and for this reason it was agreed to drop it. An understanding was reached, however, to take up the subject at the beginning of the regular session .in December, when the sugar bounty will be made a ' party question. _“ Senators Denounce Trusts. Washington, July 6. —Without any preliminary business the senate today proceeded with the consideration of the tariff bill. Mr. Bacon made a, personal explana- tion of his vote yesterday for Mr. Mills’ amendment to impose a tax of 5 per cent on all manufactured products. He had, he said, given the amendment his vote without due deliberation. If the imposition of such a tax could be con- fined to the Sugar trust .and other gi- gantic concerns existing in open viola- , tion of the law, it would, upon medita- tion, commend itself to his judgment, but as it would touch every village and hamlet in the land and lay its hand upon the most humble he frankly avowed his regret for the vote cast yesterday. , ‘ Mr. Bate (Dem.,, Tenn.) then took the floor and delivered a set speech against the bill. He made a; general argument against the measures from the stand— point, as he announced, of an advocate of “fair trade and free silver.” The senator analyzed the bill in its bearing on the agricultural industry, saying it was designed to fool the farmer by giving him fictitious protection on his products, while real protection was giv- en to all the articles consumed by him. He criticised the steady extension of the protective policy, saying the slogan of the day was “a tariff for robbery" instead of “a tariff for revenue." It ar- rayed us against the world, making the United States the Ishmael among na— tions. Mr. Pettus (Ala) then offered an amendment declaring unlawful the im- portation of sugar by any trust or com- bination operating in restraint of trade or for the purpose of advancing the price of sugar. The amendment also provides for the forfeiture of sugar so imported and directs the attorney gen— eral to enforce the forfeiture and to prosecute trusts, Combinations, etc. The senator spoke at length in sup- port of the amendment, referring to the gradual absorption of wealth in the hands of vast concerns. llonopolists Denounced. He denounced as a public enemy the man who gathered into his control an article of prime necessity, for he perpe— trated a wrong on all the people for his personal gain and satisfaction. Mr. Chilton (Tex) followed with an arraignment of trusts, arguing that they were fostered by the tariff. He explained the operation'of his antitrust amendment at length and argued. that it furnished a feasible method of reach- ing the great trusts engagedin inter- state commerce. He would vote for the amendments of Mr. Nelson'and Mr. Pettus, but he felt that neither of them would strike quite deep enough. If on every barrel of sugar, said he, there were branded the number of business rivals crushed by the Sugar trust, the number of laborers thrown out of em- ployment, the number of dollars con- . tributed to political campaign funds, days a week. few American citizens would welcome cheaper sugar at the price of so much corruption and disgrace. Trusts Were beyond the reach ,of states. They seemed to be beyond the power of the federal government. Every gun shotted for them was spiked. Mr. Morgan followed with another speech against trusts. He favored the amendment of his colleague, Mr. Pet- tus, but said he would attach to it an- other and more farreaching proposition. He thought seizure and confiscation, provided for by Mr. Pettus' amend- ment might. as in the case of the Sugar trust, enablethe trust to put up the price of sugar pending action in the courts and he suggested a modification which would provide for the immediate sale of articles“ seized.- Sugar was in many respects the leading feature of this bill, because it touched every hu- man being in the country. It would re- quire a good deal of hardihood for a senator to support‘a schedule upon which so much obloquy had been cast. The pending bill, be said, would prove an incubator of trugts. » Postmaster-s Appointed. Washing?“ July 7.—The appoint- ments of f: .. .h class postmasters today were: Pennsylvania—Bear Lake, C. L.

They “’ill Not Submit to the Peace Con- ditions of the Powers. Constantinople, July 7.—-The decisi0n ot—the council of ministers, contrary to expectations, was not favorable to the demands of the embassadors relative to the Greco-Turkish frontier negotia- tions. The situation, therefore, has be- come much strained, the Turkish reply virtually implying a; rupture of the ne- gotiations and that the powers must make concessions or adopt measures to enforce their decisions. It is reported that the grand vizier has told the sultan that he will never sign an agreement based on the strate- gic line proposed by the einbassadors. It is thought in some quarters, how- ever, that the attitude of the Turkish government is designed to enable the sultan to yield later by sacrificing some of his ministers, and rumors of impend— ing cabinet changes are already cur- rent. The bourse at Galata is largely af- fected by the situation. There has been a considerable fall in Turkish Consoli- dated securities. The Turks are sell- ing them freely, some circles express- ing the opinion that Turkey will yield only to European pressure. ' Turkey Urged to Yield. St. Petersburg, July 7.——The Novoye Vremya strongly exhorts the Turkish government to abandon any further subterfuges in the negotiations for peace between Greece and Turkey un- less the latter country wishes the pow- ers to adopt harsh measures in order to enforce their peace programme. OAMDEN’S RAGE RIOT. Crap Game Caused It, and Razors and Pistols Were Used. Camden, N. J., July 7.—A crap game led to a row at Mount Ephraim avenue and Sycamore street.

He was able to go to his home, 766 Pine street. ' ' The police arrested four white men—- Harry Peters, Frank White, John Mc- Donald and Harry Whitaker—after an exciting chase, and they are‘held for examination. The crap game was between whites and blacks, all of whom had been drink- ing freely. A dispute arose and in the row the white men seized the stakes and fled. One of those who had gath- ered up the stakes was espied by some of his antagonists and they immediate— ly pounced upon him. He had friends who sprang to his res- cue, however, and then trouble began. That part of the city swarms with ne- groes and low whites, and in a trice the streets were full of excited men and boys with'razors and pistols. The rioting crowds ran up and down the streets of the Seventh ward, whites chasing blacks and police charging both amid a horrible din. A number of the participants were slightly out, but their friends removed them before the police learned who they were. Electricity to Improve Liquor.
