a. TARIFF MIDDLE.
Extra Duty on Russian Sugar Causes
Serious Trouble.

Washington, Feb 1.-THE state de-
partment and the treasury department
vast business interests protesting against
the imposition of the counterva1iing duty
on sugar imported from Russia Nearly
all of the correspondents urge that such
action on the part Of the United states
with Russia. which already has attained
to great proportions, with promise OF an
increase in the future as the Siberian
railroad and new transpacifc steamship
lines are opened up
Inquiry at the departments named
shows that the secretary of the treasury
took this step. set out in his letter
yesterday, with great reluctance and only
after the most patient investigatlon into
the merits of the case. It was fully re-
impose the differential duty would injur-
fus1y affect the American trade in ag-
ricultural implements machinery, rail-
way material and rolling stock, ana OF
the other great staples Of export to Rus
STA. But It appeared that there was no
way out of it if the law was to be en-
forced and the secretary was obliged to
negative the Russian contention that the
Russian government actually paid no
subject 1t to the United States counter
Secretary Gage realizing the import
ance Of the issue, refrained from acting
upon it himself, without advice and sub
nitted it to the attorney general Mr.
Griggs decided that the Russian govern
ment practically paid a bounty on ex~
port sugar. That decision obliged Secre-
tary Gage to instruct the treasury off,
Gals to collect an additional duty on Rus
which IS calculated at a little less than
one cent per pound. The Russian gov
eminent has given notice that If the at
tempt is made by the United States gov
eminent to lay this countervailing duty
it must respond by imposing the maxi
mum tariff rates upon American exports
to Russia. We are now enjoying the min
imum rate and in very many cases the
maximum would be absolutely prohibit
tive on American exports to Russia.
1t is said at the state department that
this Is the situation today and that all
that can be done is to wait for the next
move on the part of Russia. The one
event that might change the situation in
a manner to wipe out the issue. is a de-
cision by the United States courts to the
effect that the Russian sugar is not
bounty-aided and it is stated that every
opportunity Will be afforded by the treas
ury officials for the speediest possible de-
termination Of that question through a
test case upon the first importation of
Russian sugar.

MORE SOLDIERS HOMES
Senator Hale Says the Commit
tee Is Constantly Besieged.

Washington, Feb. 14.-When the sen
ate convened today it was decided to
take a recess from $50 to o'clock this
evening, the reading of the District of
Columbia code bill to be the only order
of the night session.
An amendment proposed by Mr.
Shoup Qda.) to the sundry civil bill
looking to the establishment of a sol
diers' home in Idaho, induced Mr. Hale
(Me.) to call attention to the fact that
the committee on appropriations was
being kesieged constantly for more and
more soldiers homes, although it is
nearly forty years since the close of the
civil war. The general belief was that
in forty or. fifty years the demand for
these homes ought to be on the de-
crease, and he thought it would be nee
essary TO give some account to the
country of the proposed increase
Mr. PettigreW declared that the United
States was manufacturing material for
soldiers homes every day General Mac
Arthurss report for December showed
that there were 10000 more sick IN the
Philippines than could be cared for
property.
Mr. Hale acceded to this statement
and added that every man in the Philip
pines would be on the pension list IN
five years.
