a SPECIAL MESSAGE.
The President Points Out the Need OF
Action Regarding Canadian Traffic.

The PRESIDENT Points Out the Need OF
Action Regarding Canadian Traffic.
WASHINGTON. Feb S.-President Har-
rison sent to the house on Thursday
his message dealing with the subject
of the importation of foreign goods
into the United States across the Cana
dian border under consular seal The
| president discusses at length the treaty
obligations which affect the subject
growing ont of the provisions of arti-
Gle 90 of the treaty of Washington.
President Harrison has carefully re-
Trained from anything in the way of
criticism, and there is not even an in-
direct characterization to which Cam
ada or Great Britain could tal,p Of
Tense. In its substantial features,
however, the message is a clear expo
sition of the complicated traffic ar
engagements along our northern border
and of the treaties, laws and regula-
tions surrounding them. A synopsis of
its important parts is as follows:
One Of the main features TO which Mr.. Har-
rison calls attention is the injustice by which
goods arriving at Canadi N ocean ports are
sealed and sent across the border into the
United States without customs inspection until
ney reacn tnelf point OF ueStinatiOn ne SHOWS
hat the same goods when they arrive at New
FORK Boston or any American port have TO
submit TO rigid inspection, and he therefore
- v'ses congress that the present system
shows 'avorltism to Canadian transportation
routes and seaports against those OF our own
country
Another essential feature Of the message is
that which points out the unfairness existing
in trafie originating in one point in the United
States and crossing Canada for delivery at an
other point in the United States This con-
Germs the entire question Of shipping goods
from the east TO the west and from the west 10
the east AS the geographical position Of
Ontario is such that the shortest line
between New York and Chicago is across that
portion of Canada. The president points out
