Mr. Hathaway frankly admitted that ho was not blind to tho opporunl tics thus offered, but, on tho contrary, had visited he islands with tho par pone of securing options on sugar lands, should the conditions appear as favorablo as be believed them to bo. Ho bad secured such options, he stat ed, conditional, largely, on tho action of Congress on the I'blllpplno freo trade bill. "The cost of producing su gar In tho Islands," he added, "was given to mo by tho men wuo raiso su car. and not by politicians seeking freo trade," tho Inference being that tho witnesses who had appeared bo- fore tho Taft party whllo In tho IsV nmU hail been actuated mora by a do- sire to secure freo trado with this country than by a disposition to pro sont tho exact facts. Mr. Hathaway nripntpi tlin statements of a numuet of prowers, to show that sugar could ho lalscd at Hollo at a cost of 741-2 rents per hundred pounds, and- could i.n nmitnt-eri nn tho nlantations of No- ;.. fnr 6G fents cold per hundred n . mm i ISaI l I h alnl n I minus, no suusiaiiuutcu ui " n'cntB with tables, and explained that In most cases the ngurcs wcro iimcu from booLa of the planters. Mr, Mathanay challenged tho stato- me.u or secretary Taft before tho com mlttto that no peonago exists In tho Wands today, and quoted Interviews tvitb a number of Americans In tho Island showing that It docs exist, away from the centers of civilisation, where the families are held for the dobts of their parents. The superintendent of tchools of Hollo cited oho case whero n eldeily woman with a family had lust )een released from a debt of 75 Itesos, or (37.50, under which sho bad been laboring since sho was seven jtaia old. Another case was where the original debt was for a Bhlrt which On ono plcco of soil which hud been constantly cultivated for sixty years and only at a depth of thrco Inches the production of sugar averaged 3,000 pounds per aero, and witness staled that tho soil was from eighteen Inches to ten feet deep. In presenting an ex haustive analysis of tho testimony as to rate of wages given beforo tho Taft party, and to him personally, Mr. Ha thaway concluded that tho averago r&to of wages In tho Island of Negros vas eight conts per day with an al luwanco of flvo cents per day for food. or a total of thirteen cents gold per diem. On tho average from four to fix crops could bo raised without Te nanting, whllo In soma cases It ran fiom ten crops upward. In ono very iotablo Instance thoy wcro harvesting tho eighteenth crop since tho cano was first planted, Mr. Hathaway devoted considerable tlmo to analyzing the statements of rilplno witnesses beforo the Taft par ty, citing Instances whoro tbey contra dicted themselves and also testifying tc statements mado by them to him ptrsonally which directly contradicted tbolr statements before the Taf par ty. For Instance, thoy testified that thoy had only Chinese buyers for their si gar, whoroas tho largest firms In the Islands handling sugar aro Smith, Dell i. Co. and W. A. Stevenson & Co., Un cllsh Arms who havo been established for many years. Ono witness, Pedro Kegaldo had fluently testified to tho Senators and members of tho Taft party as to the cost of sugar on his rlantation, and mo cosi laiu ouwu ai Hollo, "This man," said Mr. Hatha way emnhatlcally. "never raised a jnund of sugar In his life; ho never milled a pound of sugar nor baa he a warehouse." Representative Oroave- nor wanted to know how Mr. Hatha- way had obtained these facts, and be (Continued on Page 8.)
