Sugar-Makers Fighting

NOT READY TO GIVE UP,
Having Been Led On by the
Government.
ONLY DESIRE AN INSPECTION.
They Want Ruling Upon Which
to Ask Congress for an
Appropriation.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.-Judge MeComas
in the United States District Court heard
the arguments to-day on application of
the Miles Sugar Manufacturing Company
for rule of mandamus TO compel the
Secretary of the Treasury to appoint
officials provided for in the Mckinley act
for the payment of the sugar bounty.
General }. L. Brent of MARYLAND appeared
for the sugar-planters and E. B. Whitney.
Assistant Attorney General for the Secre-
tary of the Treasury.
General Brent maintained that the title
and right TO bounty is based on the ill.,
spection by the officers of the Internal
Revenue Bureau, and that the bounty
was payable for five years from July l,
1891, by law. The company had been duly
licensed and had given bond for $251, 900,
and was entitled during the period re-
ferred to to protection of its interests and
rights. Counsel did not claim that the
law granting the bounty could not be re-
pealed, but asserted that it had not been
repealed. Independent of the payment of
the bounty the company had the right to
show that it had earned it. That could
only be done through an inspection of its
work, and when the Government licensed
the company it agreed to give a certificate
to the Commissioners of Internal Rev.
enue that the company was entitled
to the bounty. The company did
not ask the court to compel the Secretary
of the Treasury to pay the bounty, but
merely to compel an inspection. The
company was licensed when the Mckinley
act was in force, and that act made per-
mauent and continuing appropriation to
pay the bounty. a just claim on the Gov
eminent.
Assistant Attorney-General Whitney,
arguing in behalf of the Secretary. as
serted that the court had no authority to
mandamus the Secretary, as the action
was purely discretionary. In but three
in stances had writs of mandamus from the
court issued. and these were in cases
where the duties to be performed were
ministerial and not discretionary. Tie
contention of the Miles Company was not
that the Secretary should pay the bounty.
but that inspection should be made. This,
be asserted. was in order that the COM
pany should have ground on which 10 go
before Congress and ask an appropriation.
and the courts could not be invoked for
this purpose.
