The results were disappointing after two weeks Congress pass the antitrust law which German Silver purchase Act was enacted a tariff was designed to appeal to farmers some Agricultural Products were added to the protected list items like sugar it was placed on the free list sugar planters were given subsidy of two cents a Pound there was a General increase in tariff schedules with many of these.
