DAMAGED BY
CONSUL'S BLUNDER

TIC put the matter SO simply that all can
understand it. the case is this: Russia
guarantees to take from her sugar pro-
ducers as much sugar at a certain sum.
upon which she places an internal tax. At
the same time she taxes all sugar pro-
duced. When manufacturers have a sur
plus for expectation. that internal tax Is
refunded to them.
How such n condition can possibly be tor
tured into bounty is what people here can
not understand. bounty being a sum paid
to stimulate production.
The department at Washington has EVIL
IDENTIFY made a blunder.
What the Cost.
The export of Russian sugar to the United
States. over which the dispute arose.
amounted to 100 francs 81, 000. The i'm
ports of American machinery amount to
30. 100000 francs SiS.0O o.oo0. To exact duty
on the former unjustly. as NJ. De White
strongly asserts, this immense, trade. the re-
suit of years of enterprise and persistent
pushing. has been thrown away.
