THAT HOLD UP' At
WHITE PASS 5 SUMMIT
Ga~E
Liquors if Bond Will Now
be Held Here.
IN BONDED WAREHOUSE
Evidences OF other Violations on
Part of Canadian Customs OFF,
oiais In Connection with Bond-
ing Privileges.

There are no new developments In the
"hold up" at the summit perpetrated BY
the Canadian officials on an American Off
Ger last Wednesday when acting as convoy
for liquors going to Log Cabin. Captain
Cartwright Yesterday admitted having re-
ceive1 Instructions to stop" all eonvovs
at the summit, but refused to give tn
source Of his authority.
Deputy Collector Andrews has given
orders to put all Canadian liqu ors in the
government bonded warehouse that may
arrive at this port and will keep them
there until he receives an answer to his re-
port covering the numerous outrages to
which the American officers have been
subjected at the summit In the last few
months.
The arbitrary action at the summit in
connection with eonYovS brings another
piece Of Canadian Joe MartlnIsm to which
Americans are subjected, namely their re-
fusing to extend To Am.riclns the sam
bonding or cash deposit privilege that IS
extended to Canadians passing through
American territory. This applies specially
to American goods passing through Cana
dian territory to the lower Yukon or below
Eagle City. In all such cases the Cana.
dams have ARBITRARILY demanded and COL
leeted duty.
This IS in direct violation to the privll'
eges provided by the circular known as
the Canadian regulations relating to bond
ing goods Of the United States through
Canada from anv point in Alaska via
ChilkoOt or White Pass through to Circle
Citv. This law is specific and among
other things says that:
"lf the goods when entered in transitu
for expectation, are not delivered to be FOR
warded by a bonded carrier or convoy,
the duty thereon is to be deposited with
the customs officer at Lake Tagish; sub
jet to a refund Of same at the port Of Fort
Cudahv when the goods pass outward
thereat."
This is the gist Of the law which isre-
eiprocal and Is being carried out to the
letter by the United States customs Off
Gals. but which the Canadians customs
officials insist on violating day in and day
out.
B. f. Drinkle and P. A. Morris, two
miners with goods on their wav to the
lower Yukon, were the latest victims Of
this pettifogging Canadian one-slded
system. These two men have made and
signed the following statement dated Log
Cabin March IS, 1899, covering the facts
In their case;
ITO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN
"This is to eertifv that we, the under
signed. have made application before Col
Iector Peele to bond our goods from this
point through Canadian territory to For
Cudahv. also that II a bond would not be
acceptable that we would put the money
in his hands to cover the estimated amount
Of duty, providing 1t would be refunded to
US when our goods should have been trans
ported through Canadian territory.
Notwithstanding that the law says we

A new kind Of swindling has been re-
ported from two or three interior towns,
the sharper operating in the following way:
He goes into a store and claims to have the
same name as the proprietor, and is afraid
that things will get mixed up, as he is go'
ing into business in the same town. In
case Of goods being delivered there by mis-
take, will the merchant please take charge
Of them until he comes for them. The
stranger then goes 10 Wholesaler and or
ders big bill Of goods, usually jewelry.
The goods are sent. The Sharper comes
along and takes them away. As the good
natured merchant has received the goods
and allowed them to pass from his hands,
he has to paw for them.

The Arctic Brotherhood had to call an
other special meeting last night for the
initiation Of members, Captain Cart

Of the ritual were; Captain E. C. Cart
wright, E. c. Hawkins, NJ. J. Heney, A.

Captain Johnston, Of the Clipper Line,
at the customary banquet following the
rites, said the brotherhood was doing such
a large business that II needed house Of
Its own, and he then and there offered a
building site, which was accepted with
hearty cheers and songs. The lot Is on
Second avenue west, right opposite the
railroad depot. There is plenty Of money
in the treasury, so building will be begun
as soon as the plans can be made.
