SUIT FOR FREIGHT CHARGES.
White Pass and Yukon Railway the
Defendant

VICTORIA, B. c., February 12.-When
1t was first announced that Messrs. Hig-
gins and Elliott, barristers Of this city
had entered an action against the White
Pass and Yukon railway for damages and
the return of freight and passenger rates
paid by their clients as the tariff OF the
company had not been approved by the do
mtntan government, as required by the rail-
way act, and further, because the tariffs
were unjust and extortionate, there were
those who looked upon the action as a
bluff Now that Mr.. Justice Martin Of the
supreme court has decided that the plain
tiffs have a right of action against the
company under the railway act the feel
ing is gaining ground that the suits are very
serious. and should they be decided against
the company there is no telling where the
matter will end. q
Already three Wits have been issued on
behalf Of the Upper Yukon Consolidated
Company. Joseph Clearihue and j. st. Clair

yesterday, and in 1t the claim is over

CUBAN COMMISSION PROPOSED.
It is Declared That Sugar is Grown
There With Profit.

Chairman Payne today presented to tie
ways and means committee a brief sub
emitted by the American beet sugar inter-
ests and ndorsed by the cane sugar In
terests, declaring that the recent hearings
had shown that sugar was now being
made in Cuba at a profit and asking that
special committee proceed to Cuba to
investigate the question of cost OF produc-
ton, profit, etc. Mr.. Payne explained to
his colleagues that he had yesterday de-
MED the existence of such proposed trip
to Cuba as the brief had not been signed
by the cane sugar interests until this morn
ing.
Representative Steele of Indiana asked
If the invitation to go to Cuba included
payment of expenses of the trip, to which
Representative Robertson of Louisiana
answered that the expense item would be
included if necessary.
The brief sums up the hearings at con-
siderable length and states that if the tes-
timOny. Of the government experts is cor
rect then the militrry governor Of Cuba,
General Wood. has been misinformed
and the sugar is now being manufactured
and sold in Cuba al a profit, so that there
exists no possible justification for the re-
duction Of the present tariff on unrefined
sugar coming from Cuba upon the ground
that the Cuban planters are now manu-
featuring sugar at a loss"
Beyond receiving the brief the commit
tee took no action on the Cuban reciproc-
ity subject.

SOME APPREHENSION Excited.
Clause in Legislative Bill That May
Endanger Sick Leaves.

A clause in the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill providing that
the appropriations carried by the bill "sha II
not be available for the compensation of
any person incompetent Or incapacitated
for performing their duties,'' has excited
apprehension in the departments that ii
will cut off absolutely all so-called sick
leave"
BY existing law the head of department
may grant thirty days leave with pay, in
addition to the annual leave, lin excep-
tional cases. For instance, where COM
petent clerk with ggod record expert
ences a long spell Of sickness or has a
case of contagious disease in the family
that keeps him from work, the head of the
department can relieve him from suffering
harship under the law. 1t is claimed that
the new bill will in effect deprive the head
of department of this. latitude.
The danger can be obyiated by the SEN
ate amending the clause so that it shall
not repeal or modify the act which author

When the Commissioners bill to regulate

tions that will be discussed will be an
amendment to the law applying to high

that is in force here in relation to the

whether person desiring to erect high
building on a residence street or avenue

his project from owners OF surrounding
property. This proposition is made on the
supposition that high building in a purely
residence neighborhood is a detriment to
surrounding property, often throwing
shadow over it ard preventing free cir

beauty of the entire neighborhoOd. 1t is
argued by those who think we'll OF the local
