here yesterday afternoon. Grouped to-
gether in the Office Of the assistant secre-
tary of the treasury were many noted gov

The occasion that brought them together
was public hearing about certain privi-
leges granted to the Grand Trunk railroad
in having goods for Canada sealed in cars
at American ports and forwarded in bond
to their destinations. Those who opposed
this plan contended that the seal should
be placed on the cars at the Uni,wa States
port nearest the Canadian dest.s.ation Of
the goods.
Secretary Blaine's Speech.

simply as one Of the spectators. He wished
to say, however, in answer TO Mr.. Ray
mond's suggestion that this might be a
policy of retaliation, that he felt sure the
government had no such thought; that the
mere supposition of such policy and then
arguing against it might create a serious
misapprehension in the country as to such
