fcn'&na Senator on the Floor

Of the Corporation. birJAKCE COT.1MITTEE

GIVES ASSURANCES

Promises Hoosier Solon That

Some of the Trust's Worst

Practices Will Be Promptly

Stopped. . ,

wesnington, June zo. Following? a peech which Senator Beveridge made

Igrasterday in which he exposed meth

fods of the Tobacco Trust and showed

Ihow it has profited enormously at the 'expense of the people, he received assurance voluntarily .from the finance committee that the committee will (brine in amendments to the tariff bill f putting a peremptory stop to two of 'the practice of the trust by which it baa cheated the consumers of smoking 'tobacco and oppressed its competitors. 'One amendment which the committee f promised to report with' a recommendation for its adoption would abolish abort weight packages of smoking to

bacco and require the trust to restore

the full weight package that it sold

before the Spanish-American war. The

pother amendment would prohibit the Igivfng away of coupons for - prises

with tobacco and cigarettes by which

too trust has gained undue advantage

tovsr its competitors. These concessions while of immense tlmportance to the public, do not go far enough to suit Senator Beveridge. tl will Insist on nothing short of the restoration of practically the entire iCaaalah war taxes on tobacco, and he iwill fight to that end with a very fair Lprospect of success. Ho pointed out in ffeia speech to the senate that when the extra Spanish war taxes were re.pealed the trust, which had shifted the extra tax to the consumer, did not re--due Its prices to conform with the reduced taxes, but that it has managed ;by holding up Its prices to the level of tthe par period to extort 121.000,000 a Isear from the American people. 'l Divert Stream of Geld. vi Senator Beverldgea' proposition as 'lie forcibly stated It to the senate is "to divert, this stream of gold from the

(coffers of the Tobacco Trust into the

(treasury of the United States.',' Senator pevarldge has got the Tobacco Trust on the ran, and It would be glad to compromise by some such limited conbassions as the finance committee now joCers, but the - Indiana senator will push file fight against the trust on the imala proposition as well as on these cdlateral Issues, and will see that the sjibate takes an "aye" and "no" vote

on the direct question ae to whether j

the Tobacco Trust shan be permtttef to continue filchinr S21.0OO.OOO a yea!

from the pocket of the consumer.

:tTb speech mad br Senator IJevWidje, which gave evidence ot bavins been prepared after a most careful and painstaking, study of the subject was generally regarded by those who heard it as being absolutely unanswerable. In fact nobody tried to answer it, although Senator Simmons of North Carolina, a. "protection democrat,'' asked a few questions which showed his ' sympathy for the trust. It had been rumored in advance of Senator Beveridge taking the floor that Senator Rooa of New York, who was ettor. ney for Thomas F. Ryan in organlzing the . trust and whose legal brain shaped its policy; would answer Senator Beveridge, but he sat in his seat silent and attentive and . did not ask a question. Fortified With Information. Senator Beveridge was fortified wjth a mine of Information about the-Tobacco Trust when he spoke. The thorougness of its preparation was evident from the way he handled his case. His cys&ittee roonf on the floor below looked like a tobacco store. The senator had sent his office assistants out into the market to purchase every brand of tobacco made by

the trust. They gathered together a collection of chewimr. smoking and

snuff tobaccos that would furnish a very respectable store for a tobaccon

1st. All of these samples were paid for

bv the senator at the usual rate of

prices. The senator at first intended

to exhibit them on the floor to Illus

trate his points, but finally decided he would not do so. A number of senators went to his committee room to

view the disolar. . '

Senators Aldrlch. Hale and nearly

all the standpatters remained out of

the chamber during Senator Beve-

ido exnosure of the Tobacco Trust

Senator Hale returned just before his

conclusion and when ne nau nmsnea

and had unexpectedly moved the adoption of his amendment without fur

ther delay the senator from Maine

snapped his fingers for a page and sent

him scurrying after Senator Aldrlch. The senator from Rhode Island ar rived in a jiffy, and made a very earnest nlea against immediate eonsldera

tinn nf thA amendment, savins: it

would violate the spirit of the unanl

mous consent agreement by which it had been conceded that the schedules of the tariff bill should be finished

before the Internal revenue features

are taken, ud.

Senators Lodge. Sutherland and Mo-

Cumber backed up Senator Aldrlch in

unrinc that the matter be put over

It was plain that they were afraid of a vote. Senator Beveridge at first demurred to this plan of postponement, and contended that it was always in order to offer amendments to a tariff

bill.

Aldrlch. continuing his plea, assured

tit lAnitnr from Indiana that he

would have an opportunity to be heard

before the finance committee, which

desired to consider the - matter thor oughly.

DR. LYHE DISPOSES OF DRUG BUSINESS Leaves New Paris in Effort to Recuperate Health.

New Paris, O., June 25. Owing to falling health Dr. Lyne the well known physician and druggist has found it necessary to take a rest, and a short time ago he consumated a deal whereby his store and practice passes

into the hands of Dr. Harris, of Lo

well, Ohio; who comes highly recom

menaea as a man. a pnysician and a druggist.. Dr. Harris will continue the

business and practice as heretofore done by Dr. Lvne. Dr. Lyne is undecided as to what business he will eventually engage in. but after his family has been located at Lowell, where they will move in a week or

two, ne win take a long rest, and a

fishing and camping trip in Michigan and Wisconsin, in the hope of regaining his health, which, while consider-

aoiy improved over wnat - it was a

short time ago, is still poor as compared to what it was once. It Is with

regret that Dr. Lyne and family are given their adieus by their many New Paris friends among whom they have dwelt so acceptably for the past

nine years.
