WINNIPEG, Man., July 19.-A month

arrested in this city as an escaped con-
vict. In 1878 he was charged with re-
ceiving horses, knowing them to have
been stolen. and, after pleading guilty.
was sentenced to two years in the peni-
tentiary. After serving year he eS-
capped to Dakota, where he began farm
ing, and, being steady and industrious.
soon became in comfortable clrcum-
stances. This spring he came to Mani
toba to visit relatives, was captured and
taken to the penitentiary again, where
he is now serving out his term.
1t was felt that there was a
good deal of harshness in the case.
Fourteen years had elapsed since Peter
son escaped. during which time he had
become the head of a faulty. Besides,
when pleading guilty, he did so, it is
said, in ignorance of the laws OF the
country, and under the impression that
he would be discharged, instead of
which he was sent down for two years.
A largely signed petition was forwarded
to the minister of justice at Ottowa, re-
citing the facts of the case and praying
for Peterson's release. The reply came
a few days ago. and simply states that
the minister of justice does not consider
it a case for the exercise of executive
clemency. Peterson will accordingly
have to serve the balance OF his ter IN,
which will extend over about year.

IT'S AN OLD CUSTOM.
Mexico's Kick Against Paying
Extra Duty Is Unwarrantcd.

WASHINGTON. July 13. - Minister
Ryan recently reported to the state de-
partment that there was much dissatis-
faction in Mexico, relative to the prac-
ice of assessing goods arriving at United
States ports on Mexican vessels at the
rate of 10 per cent in excess of the reg
ular duties. The minister's letter was
referred to the treasury department.
and the state department has just re-
ceived an answer which states that the
additional duty of 10 per cent is always
assessed on goods arriving in this cOun-
try on foreign vessels, unless the coun-
try to which the vessels belong has a
treaty stipulation with the United
States covering this point. Goods i'm
ported on United States vessels are ex-
empt from the additional duty.
