CANADIAN OFFICIALS DROP IN
TO INVESTIGATE COMPLAINTS OF
UNAUTHoRIZED CHARGES
of the Line Have Caused Some
Criticism

Revenue Collectors on Both Sides
of the Line Have Caused Some
Criticism
For several months there have been
complaints coming to the federal au-
thorities of unauthorized charges that
have been made by the Canadian Gus
toms authorities for the expectation of
cattle from the Dominion. There Is no
export duty placed on cattle, but it
appears that the revenue collectors on
both sides OF the line, at some points,
have taken advantage OF the law to
make charges that are not warranted.
During the summer a couple OF men
we're arrested for makeing overcharges
for import duties, and within a few
plained TO the department Of the
amount of charges that have been
made on exports from Canada.
c. S. Grain, special agent Of the
treasury department, complained some
time ago to the Canadian customs off,
Gals that warranted charges were
being made by the Canadian officials.
and yesterday there arrived In the city
the chief inspector OF her British maj
esty's customs in the Dominion Of Can
ada, s. w. McMichael of Toronto.
He spent the day going over the i'm
ports for some time past and investi-
eating the charges made. He found a
specific charge against the Canadian
officials at DeioTaine, Man, a point
just across the boundary in the Turtle
mountain district of North Dakota A
specific charge was made by an Amer
lean importer that he had been obliged
to pay the sum OF $50 as export duty
when there was no authority for the
collection of any money.
Inspector McMicihaeI secured the re-
Turns OF Agent Grain and last night
left for the Northwest. 1t has been
claimed by Northwestern importers for
some time that they were being fieeced
and the investigation will be watches
with interest by all OF the North Da-
kota and Montana importers.
