TO IMPOSE DUTY ON SUGAR
A Movement to This End on Foot in
the English Parliament.

London, March 5.-The chancellor Of
the exchequer,' (Sir Michael Hicks
Beach) said a prominent member of the
house of commons to a representative
of the Associated Press tonight, wiz
probably introduce a duty on sugar in
the forthcoming budget and will. per-
haps, also add a counterValling duty.
A member of the ministry aid:
Il can only say that this serious de-
parture from Ergland'S historic pr1n-
ciples of free trade is under discussion,
as the provisions of the budget are re-
l~igiously kept secret announced in the
house Of commons. However. if sugar
is not taken off the free list, there will
be a large number of disappointed con-
servativeS; on the other hand, the in
PRODUCTION of such a motion will meet
with the most fierce opposition upon the
part Of the liberals and all old time
champions of free trade. The move
ment in favor of such a step is due to
the almost utter decay of England's
refining industry; to the careful STUDY
of the success Of American sugar under
the present system. and to the dire ne
cessity of the government to raise
funds by other means than increasing
the already enormous direct taxation.
For sometime an influential
Of the house of commons has been deal
ing with the subject. After the re-
cent controversy Russia and
the United States over sugar. this COM
mittee decided to make the matter one
| of debate in the house of commons
March 4th Mr.. James Reid, member Of
the house of from Greenock,
| the center of the sugar refining indus
try, was appointed spokesman. but at
the last moment Mr.. Balfour was
obliged to cancel his consent. owing to
the necessity of devoting all the time
Of ne house to the debate on supplies.
Mr.. James Reid, in an interview with
a representative of he Associated
Press, said:
What we hope to get. though 1 am
a refner syseIf, is coun~tervailing duty
which will null fly the int afford
ed by France, Germany and Belgium.
l do o think a tax or c~ountervailing
duty will seriously affect the American
sugar. 1t is chiefly aimed at the cheap
beet sugars of the continent, which
thanks to the subs dy. can undersell
anything produced here.
The West ndian people are also
SERIOUSLY affected and are giving US
the full weight of their influence. The
chief opposition comes from the Eng
cheap sugars.
I'm case the United states govern
ment should subs die American bot
toms, I think their sugar cargoes
would be dang rously near coming
under our proposed c~ountervail.ng du-
ty. We are far from DESTROYS: of en-
bracing the whole American policy OF
taught US a lesson regarding sugar
and so long as the continent ins SITS
upon subsidizing uga to ru. n our in.
dustries we are bound to fetslfsta."

CHINESE
Difficulties in Reaching an Agreement
No Overe-timated

Washington, March 5.-Such reports
as reach here from Pekin indicate that
the state department by no means I'M
derestimated the difficulties that would
be experienced in reaching an agree
ment between the foreign ministers re-
speeding the amoun of indemnities to
be levied upon the Chinese government
and the method of collection. Special
Commissioner Rockhill is doing all that
he can do to restrain the demands OF
the powers to a sum total that Will
be within the ability of the Chinese
government to meet without the de-
%struction of the dynasty and ar appro-
val hat would result in the loss OF
much territory by China. 1t appears,
however. that the demands in their
present shape are of an onerous char
acter and grave difficulty is anticipated
in securing an amelioration of them.
1t will not be surprising If 1t should
be necessary for the powers sincerely
DESTROYS of avoiding a portition of
China to address themselves directly to
the foreign offices of the other powers
as was done in the case of the punish
ment section of the agreement in the
hops that they may instruct their min
listers at Pekin on different lines from
those they are now pursuing.
