CANADIAN DTSCRIMIN1TION.
The President Calls for Information on the
Subject.

E''JNN
WASHINGTON, Dec. Zs.-The President
has called upon the executive departments
for all information in their possession
relative to freight coming into the United
States over the Canadian Pacific rail-
road. TheN unjust discrimination against
United States railroads in favor Of the
Canadian Pacific railroad by means OF
the consular seal system has long been
q source of complaint at the Treasury
Department. Gradually the business has
grown and the law has been perverted,
ana now more gUOOs having their origin
in China and japan are shipped over the
Canadian Pacific for the United States
than goods or products Of Canada.
The Canadian Pacific has caused TO be
put into the Canadian tariff a discrimi-
mating duty of 10 per cent on all coffee
and tea imported into Canada from the
United States. From all other countries
except the United States coffee and tea
can come into Canada free. The effect
Of this has been to divert traffic from
American ports I'm favor Of that road.
These evidences Of unfriendliness are
regarded at the Treasury Department as
tustifying some drastic measure. II is
pointed out that as the traffic over the
Canadian Pacific has become so great
that 1t is impossible for the United States
consuls to personally perform the duties
reauired Of them under the provisions
of the Consular Seal law, a due regard
for the revenue would warrant the Sus-
pension Of section 1902 until such time as
Congress makes provision for its perfect
enforcement.
Should this be done Treasury Depart
ment officials believe it would put a stop
to discrimination against American rail-
roads. and also be a retaliatory measure
against Canada for her unfriendliness OF
conduct toward us.
