THE POLICE.
RUSSIAN SUGAR BOUNTY CASE.
DECISION OF THE SUPREME COURT EX-
PECTED SOON

Washington, oct. 29.-The question as TO
whether the drawback paid by Russia on sugar
exported from that country is a bounty under
the meaning Of the Dingley tariff law Is IN a
fair way 10 be decided at an early day by the
Supreme Court Of the United States. The point
is raised in case which has been brought into
that court by Robert Z. Downs and which
argument WAS begun to-day. That the case is
considered OF importance is made evident by
the fact that the Supreme Court granted writ
OF eertioran in il after il had been decided in
favor Of the United States by the Circuit Court
0; Appeals Of the Fourth Circuit. and by the ad-
dtional circumstance that Mr.. Downs and the
government united in a petition. after II was
brought TO the higher court, to have considera-
ton advanced on the docket. That petition was
granted just before the adjournment Of the
court for the term last May, and the earliest
day practicable given 10 the
The case grows cut of the action of the Treas
ury Department in imposing a countervailng
duty on Russian sugar 10 meet the drawback
and the retaliatory step the part OF Russia
by which that country imposed the maximum
duty on American goods. Mr.. Downs challenged
the correctness OF the position OF the United
states and took the case into the courts. So far
the Treasury position has been sustained, and
there is great interest in the outcome OF the
case as a result Of the present hearing.
In the papers filed in the case the assertion is
made that the action of Russia has resulted in
destroying the greater part of the trade OF the
United States with that country, and Ernest A.
Bigelow, attorney for Mr.. Downs. contends that
the American protective system Is directly con-
cerned in the settlement of the case.
