CANADA AND THE M'KINLEY BILL
First Official Uttcrances-Views of the
Minister of Finance.

First Official Uttcrances--Niews of the
Minister of Finance.
MONTREAL, Sept 23.-The first public
official utterances regarding Canada's
attitude toward the Mckinley tariff bill
were delivered ON Saturday at the
monster political picnic, at Shirbrook,
by Minister Of Finance Foster, who said
he had regretted that the United States
would not arrange some fairer measure
of reciprocal trade than we now had but
if the Mckinley bill was to be the policy
of the United States, it only remained
for Canada to depeGd upon herself, de-
velop her own resources and seek other
markets than those of the United States
for goods forcibly diverted from that
country by the provisions Of the McKin-
ley bill. A great deal of this trade
would go to Great Britain.
He was also prepared to say that n
very large and profitable market stood
open in the West Indies for the products
of Canada, the very products against
which the heightened tariff has been
placed by the United States. Then
there was range for developing our
trade in China. Japan and Australia
The burden of M. Fosters speech was
that Canada need net fear the McKin
ley bill, and that if the United States
markets were closed to her she could
find others.

THE SUGAR TARlFs.


Protest OF Henry Brown, the ESx-Treasury
Expert, Against the Proposed Schedule.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30. Henry Brown,
the noted ex-treasury department sugar
expert, has sent the following letter,
embodying a vigorous protest against
the sugar tariff schedule, to Senator
Aldrich and the tariff bill conferees;
SAXoNvILLE, Mass, Sept. 10, 1890
Hon. N b, Aldrich, and Members of
the Tariff Conference Committee in
Congress.
The provisions of the sugar schedule of
the tariff hin, as the bill came from the
house, and rs it now stands with senate
amendments, is complete surrender OF
the peoples interests to foreign producers
and sugar reliners, and is already boosted
of as such by them. The rem sdy is in
your hands
Admitting all sugars not above No. 16,
or not above No. 13, Dutch standard in
color, free of duty without restrictions,
again opens the door to colOration frauds,
which were scotched, not killed, by the
bill of March, 1888, after six years of con.
stnnt fighting by this writer 1t is not a
question, but a certainty, that all sugars
not above No. IS, Dutch standard, will be
imported for relners, and if the line is
No. l3, Dutch standard, all foreign sugar
producers will color tEcir sugars to evado
the duty Only bastard yellow sugars, ii
any, are likely TO come in refined below
No. l6, Dutch standard, and even these
cannot compete with the high grade cen.
trifugals that will come in free OF duty to
rctiners who can then produce yellow re
fined and undersell foreign refined yel
lows. There will be no sugars imported
that are not below Nos IL or 10, Dutch
standard, in color, as under the now
schedule the old culOration frauds will be
renewed in full force, aIl be protected by
law
There should be proviso something as
follows: Provided, that all sugars not
above Nos - and 10 (whichever line is
adopted, Dutch standard in color, testing
above 80 degrees in the polariscope, shall
pay duty OF threc-tenths of celt per
pound and two-hnndrcdths of cent pei
pound additional for every degree or frac
tion Of degree above 30 degrees.
BY some such prOviso the government
can maintain control over importatioas Of
sugar, and protect the interests Of the
people. Without some such proviso tho
bounty plan will prove a farce, and con
sumers will be at the mercy of foreign
producers and reiiners OF sugar.
The proviso will also afford some protec
zion to the molasses boilers. The imC
for dsnosing OF the lSJ0-Gl crop OF d0mes
tic sugar before the bill goes into effect
should be extended to May !, 1891, in
justice to producers of sugars in this
country, who are entitled to the protection

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 23.-General
Master Workman POwderly, of the
Knights of Labor, left this city Sun
day before a Press reporter could get Il
talk with him about the confession OF
the three Knights of Labor, i'm m2licating
Master Workman Lee, Of District AS
sembly No 24G, in the wreck on the New
York Central railroad. In his absence
Mr. Wright of the general executive
board, spoke for the general officers Of
the order. He said:
Until these confessions We're pub
lished we believed that Reed, Cordial,
Cain, Buett and Herman were Innocent
OF the charges preferred against them.
We intended to defend them. but since
they swear that they took part in the
wrecking Of the trains, wo will make
thorough investigation and lend every
assistance to the authorities to bring
the guilty party to justice.
THE order of the Knights of Labor
does not recognize that sort of warfare,
nor does it tolerate within their ranks
men who will resort to it, | cannot b.
lieve that Master Workman Lee had
any knowledge of the guilt of these
men. Their claim that he gave them
money to leave the country with do not
credit.
Il know that Lee had very little money
and that the money that was given thu
executive committee of the district, did
not pass through his hands. The first
instalment that was given the district
was some days after the wreck and it
was very small amount. 1t was given
by General Secretary Hayes to the dis
trict treasurer. That was to meet the
immediate wants of some of our mem
bers who are in distress. and we have
vouchers that it WAS used for that pur-
pose.
at was some time after that that Mr.
Hayes gave q much larger sum to the
treasurer of the district for distribution
None of this money, as l said, passed
through Lees hands, and, as he is not
possessed of much wealth himself, feel
quite sure that he did not furnish any
money to the Inen to escape. | have
thought that perhaps these men had
drawn the names of officials into this
matter in the hope of discrediting the
order. If that is their idea they will
not succeed. The order will live, and
the general officers will come ont of this
with clean skirts.
