It developed that the four Louisiana members now in the city, Representatives Robertson, Meyer, Davis and Ransdell, were favorable to the bill, and that the two uisiana members it of the city, Messrs. Broussard and Breazeale, probably would favor it The Louisiana members made no conceal- | ment of the fact that the sugar Industry of their state required the measure of pro tection against Philippine sugar, which the | majority bill gave by applying the Dingley rates, Under these circumstances the mi- nority members reached no united decision as to oppesing the bill and, although th will be a minority report opposing the meas- ure on general grounds, the Louisiana members will hold themselves individually free to vote for the bill Secretary Gage has written to Chairman Payne, pointing out that the bill should provide for a rebate when articles exported trom this country contain ingredients im- ported from the Philippines on which duty already has been paid.
