ErnInins Runrin,a Attitude.

st. Petersburg, July 1.-Confrming
statements already telegraphed the
Journal of Commerce and Industry,
representing the Russian ministry of
finance, explains Russia's attitude to-
ward the American duty against
British paraffine manufactured from
Russia naphtha. The article declares
that Secretary Cages measure was
"manifestly designed as a reprisal,"
adding that this supposition is
strengthened by the fact that article
626 had never previously been so con-
strued. 1t asserts also: that Mr..
Gage did not mention Roumanian
naphtha, which is likewise imported
into Great Britain. The contention
therefore is that Russia's answer in
raising the duties on bicycles and
resin is justifiable.

Reason Why Pending Negotiations Arc
! ~~}9 Being Delayed.
WASHINGTON, Jan: 2. -What shall be
the status of the inhabitants of the
Danish West Indies in case Of cessior
OF the islands to the United States:
This is the question which, as much a.
anything else, is delaying the conclu.
sion of negotiations between the Danish
and American governments regarding
the acquisition by the United States of
the Islands of St. Thomas, st. Croiz
and st. John, in the Caribbean sea. 81
3 The Inhabitants of the islands are
Danish subjects. The United States
IS not willing to concede to them the
full privileges of citizenship. It is
pointed out that to give them differ
ent status than that conferred upon the
people of Porto Rico would be unfair
to the Porto Ricans
1t is perhaps possible that the Danish
government may be delaying the nego.
tlations until the supreme court gives
its decision in the pending case. but
this is not believed to be the case, as
the propositions and the counter-propo-
sltlons are being exchanged. Informa-
ton which has been communicated to
the state department is to the effect
that the mass of people of St. Thomas,
st. Croix and St. Johns are favorable
to the transfer Of their isla Ids to this
government

State Cannot Tax People to Aid Private
F.. Enterprises. -s .
ST. Paul, Jan. 2.-In exercising q
prerogative rarely used by an attorney
general the Minnesota beet sugar
bounty law of 1895 was declared in
valid in an opinion rendered by At.
torney General Douglas, at the request
of State Auditor R. @. Dunn. A de.
cision on the law was made necessary
by the state auditor S refusal to issue a
warrant. due to the Minnesota Beet
Sugar company under a law of 1895,
for sugar manufactured during 1900.
The opinion holds that the funds ap-
propriated for sugar bounties are
raised by taxation and that since d.
rect tax to meet the bounty cannot be
maintained, public funds cannot be de-
voted for it,. The power of the legisla.
ture to aid a private enterprise is held
to be properly determined by this rule.
The opinion follows long line of SUI.
preme court decisions Of many states.

The other absentees, with those who
voted with the Democrats on the or.
ganization of the house, are classed as
anti-Quay Republicans. Speeches were

basis as in March, 1890. The employees

accept the reduction.
