Dr. Richardson, 8ent to Examine Mutll-Mlllionaire at Miami, Fla* by Pujo Committee. Washington, Jan. 17.--Voted for by all the members of the Pujo commit­ tee save Chairman Pujo himself, the committee, by. a resolution, decided Wednesday that William Rockefeller may be examined by the chairman and Samuel Untermyer, the, commit­ tee's counsel, although the examina­ tion will be private and will be held, in all probability, in the sonth. The resolution was based on a re­ port by Dr. Richardson of Washington, the committee's expert. Dr. Richardson said that he exam­ ined Mr. Rockefeller at Mrami, Fla., on Sunday, January 12; that no one else was present, and that he spent an hour with him. The affidavit pre­ sented by Dr. Chappell, Mr. Rocke­ feller's physician, he said, did not fully state the case. "Mr. Rockefeller's condition is more serious than' would be supposed from reading Dr. ChappelTa affidavit," said the witness. Dr. Richardson said that he found that the right vocal cord of the oil magnate was practically gone and that the left was badly affected. He said he found Mr. Rockefeller's pulBe 100 and hiB blood pressure 162. • writing test, he said, showed that Mr. Rocke­ feller by continued effort could write only eleven words In two and one-half minutes. He said he found a condition of what Is mostly called "shaking palsy," which made an examination by writ­ ing a practical impossibility. ' "I believe he could be subjected a short examination orally, without immediate danger to his life," said Dr. Richardson. But a lengthy exami­ nation would probably weaken his vo­ cal cords to a point where a serious swelling of the larynx might be caused or a hemorrhage • might result that would end in serious consequences."

Washington, Jan. 17.--The American Sugar Refining company went on rec­ ord at the hearing before the house ways and means committee Wednes­ day In favor of a reduced tariff on sugar, retention of the small differen­ tial duty on refined sugar, "if protec­ tion is to be given to any industry," and the continuation of the present color standard as the most practicable distinction between raw and refined sugars for customs house classifica­ tions. It opposed the abolition of all duty on sugar on the grouiyi that It would destroy at once one of the largest sources of revenue. The American company's position was presented by Edwin F. Atkins, vice-president and acting head of the company. "Free sugar, while present produc­ tion is maintained," he said, "would drop prices here so low as to destroy the Louisiana Industry, the beet sugar industry, particularly east of the Mis­ sissippi river, would depress Porto Rico and Philippine sugars far below their production cost, and make Ha­ waiian production unprofitable, thus largely curtailing our present sources of supply." 8enator 8mith'a Father Dead.
