CANADIAN WOOD
PULP CASE DECIDED
Board of Classification OverruIes Pro
tests of American Companies.

NEW YORK, March 23.-The board
of classification of the United States
general appraisers today decided the
Canadian pulp wood case. There were
two protestants. F. w. Meyers & Co.,
acting for Hollingsworth, Whitney &
Co., of Boston, and the Sault Ste. Marie
Pulp and Paper company, of Michi-
gan.
Two distinct questions were present.
ed to the board. One related to pulp
Imported from Quebec and the other to
pulp from Ontario. In each case the
pulp is made from wood cut on crown
lands" Under the laws of Quebec the
commissioner of crown lands is au-
thorized to grant licenses to cut tim
Der on the ungranted lands of the
crown, subject to payment of a tax Of
90 cents per cord for pulp wood cut,
a rebate of 25 cents per cord being
allowed on timber manufactured into
paper pulp in the Dominion of Can
ada" The United States customs au-
thorities levied an additional duty
equal to the 20 cents rebate allowed.
The board Of classification now over.
rules the protest relating to the pulp
from Quebec and the action of the col
lector in that particular place is sus-
tanned. Precisely the same additional
duty had been imposed upon the pulp
from Ontario. Under the laws of that
province, however, no one is permitted
to cut pulp wood on crown lands. un-
less 1T is to be manufactured in Can
ada. AS regards imDortations from
Ontario the board holds that the prov
ince of Ontario 'levies no export duty
upon wood pulp exported from it's linn
its and therefore the additional duty
imposed by the collector upon the mer-
chandise from that province was i'm
properly assessed and his decision on
that part is reversed, and he is in
structed to reliquidate the entry so as
to assess no such additional duty"
The decisions appealed We're made by
the collectors of customs at BurIing-
ton, VT, and Marquette, Mich, under
instructions from the treasury depart
ment. An appeal to the federal courts
probably will be taken.

certain night they had stopped the
coach near Wickenburg and robbed 1t
of the express box and several sacks Of
mail. The men who accomplished the
robbery were masked. The trail of
their horses was traced into Wicken-
burg, and Jack and his companion were
in Wickenburg early next morning,
forty miles or more from Jacks cattle
ranch When news of the robbery
reached Prescott, Jack was drinking
in saloon and he Immediately gave
it out that he was the robber. but
averred that he got nothing by 1T, for
he scorned to rob unarmed passengers,
and there was no money in the mail
sacks Upon this evidence he was ar
rested and brought before the United
States Commissioner for preliminary
examination.
Jack had a reputation as desperate.
which he had fairly earned, but he
was braggart, as well as bravo, and
when in his cups would avow that he
had committed every robbery and
murder that had been perpetrated In
California or Arizona. Yet he was
known to be as honest fellow as ever
lived, and though his homicides were
many. he had always on examination,
been exonerated as having acted in
self defense
Jack had penchant for collecting
and giving burial to the bones OF plo-

neers who had been killed by the
Apache Indians. Years before one
Colonel Snively was killed on Antelope
Mountain by hostile Indians. Several
expeditions had endeavored to find
Snively's bones without success and
finally Jack announced his determina-
tion to make a personal search for
them. So taking a bag in which to
transport them, when found, he mount
ed his bronco, and accompanied by his
hired man, departed on the search
He did not find the bones and that
night the stage was robbed and this
coincidence, together with the fact that
the robbers had a bag in which they
carried away their plunder, was suffi-
cient to cause the arrest of Jack and
his hired man.
Air you at yourself" said Jack. as
he was seated in the Commissioner s
office awaiting the arrival of that Of
ficer to proceed with the examination,

Jack was discharged by the Magis-
trate. it being shown that the robbery
occurred in an adjoining county He
was rearrested and spirited away by
the Deputy Marshal at daylight on
Sunday morning and before a writ OF
habeas corpus could be got out was
incarcerated in the Yuma Jail. Year
before Jack had been scalped and his
skull broken in a fight with the
Apaches. He was trepanned and a sill
yer plate inserted. At times this gave
him great pain, which he was accus-
toned to alleviate by the use Of NOR
phine. Either through ignorance or
malice the jailer at Yuma withheld
from him his usual doses Of morphine
and he died a few weeks later In awful
agony.

traitors OF the robbery was discovered
and confessed and sentenced to four
