Does Not Care For Ethics. 0 ’ WASHINGTON, June 15.——Bef.'>re the industrial commiSsion in' its investigation of trusts there appeared yesterday Mr. H. O. Havemeyer, president of the Amer- ican Sugar Refining cOmpany. His testi- mony related almost wholly to the sugar industry,.nnd he opened with a lengthy written statement which vigorously 5‘1;- tackcd the customs tariff, which he de- clared was the “mother of all trusts.” The existing bill and the preceding one have been the occasion of the formation of all the large trusts, with very few ex- ceptions. inasmuch is they provide for an inordinate protection to all the inter" ests of the country, sugar refining ex- cepted. Economic advantages incident to the consolidation of large interests in 'the same line Of business are a great in- centive to their formation, but these beat a very insignificant proportion to the ad- vantages granted in the way of protec- tion under the customs tariff. “There probably is not an industry that requires a protection of more than 10 per cent ad valorem. and it is to ob- tain what is provided over such per- centage in the tariff that leads to the formation of what are commonly spoken of as ‘trusts.’ ” Mr. Havemeyer’s statement aroused great interest. and the next three hours were devoted to answering questions‘ask- ed him in rapid succession by members of the commission. He at first declined to state whether the company was making money at present, saying that was the business of the company alone, but he afterward made an incidental statement which the commission construed into an admission that the business was not prof- itable now. ' The witness confessedthat his company had very‘ little regard for the welfare of rivals in business, saying that prestige, ability, experience and A nan- Slasher. ‘ ' .

If they wade in and get stuck, let them get out and if they wish to wade in again. The fate of rival concerns is their afifair, not ours.” Speaking of the “ethics of life,” sug‘ gested by a member of the commission, Mr. Havemeyer said: “I don't care 2 tentsfor your ethics. I know nothing about them. I-am‘ talking about busi- ness.” - , Mr. Havemeyef said that many things‘ were done in business which looked cold blooded and harsh, but that business, con- ditions often required conduct justifying such characterization. The farmers, he thought, ought to establish a trust for He closed withma pro- test against what he called the tariff dis- criminations against sugar, reiterating that it was due entirely to the“ feeling against combinations in business. “The sugar refinershave never had a‘ fair hearing at the hands of the ways and means committee," he said; “When I came here as an individual, they were willing to give me anything, but when I came as the representative of the Ameri- can Refining company, of five times the importance, asking for an adequate tariff, I was told to get out and received no consideration, yet the day of the individ- ual is past.

AFTER THE STOR M. The Stricken Towns Perform Burial Rites—Relief From Many Sources. 'NEIV RICHMOND, “Via, June 15.— Thirty-two new graves were made yes- terday in the two little cemeteries at op- posite sides of the town, a constant suc- cession of funerals threading a passage Services for 22 were held in the Catholic church and from the- Congregational church 10. There are still :1 large number of unburied dead, and but for the fact that a large number of cofiins failed to arrive it is likely the number of funerals would have been close to 50. The num- ber'of known dead, was increased by one, Henry Larsen, a boy about 14: years of age, the son of a laborer, and two of the injured died. The work of clearing up the town was undertukcnlin a systematic-manner yes~ terday morning, and decided progress was made. The numerous dead horses that were lying around \vere‘ all buried early in tho day. All the fires which had been smoldering for 36 hours were ex- tinguishcd, and a number of cellars in g which dead bodies were supposed to be ~ . were cleared up. The militia kept strict . guard around the edges of the devastated district, and no one who could not show , excellent cause for admission was allow- ' ed inside the lines. l Supplies kept coming in all day from ‘ all directions, and there is no scarcity of anything to eat. Bedding is not too plen- ‘3‘, tiful, and blankets are needed. The relief committee has received . tenders of money from various sources I amounting to about $5,000. , Enough ad- ' ditional money is in sight, it is said, to supply all immediate demands for cash. The Destruction of Herman.

The loss of property aggre- gates $150,000, which means something appalling for the inhabitants of the peaceful little village that only a little more than 24 hours ago stood intact, but of which now scarcely anything remains. One hundred buildings have been com- pletely destroyed. Only six structures re- main intact—four residences, the'school- house and one church. The population is in a pitiable condition. Those who lost their homes, and there are about 500 of them, are absolutely without resources and must depend-on public charity for sustenance and a chance to begin life 'over again. The work of relief has al. ready begun, and in a substantial man- ner. About 100 of the unfortunates are housed at Blair. The latter town raised $200 as ~a relief fund, and the Washing- ton county authorities appropriated $500 for the same purpose. Two do'zen tents were sent out from Blair.” Help For the Stricken. ST.
