ARGENTINA IS
PROTECTING SUGAR

Argentina has recently adopted a
law imposing a very heavy duty on
sugar-one that will presumably prac-
tically shut out imports of that com.
modify. The South American repub-
lie is bending every energy toward
developing domestic sugar industry,
and the new duty is presumably by
way of protection until the new In.
dustry shall become established
Argentina's sugar production now
amounts to about 100000 tons. Last
year it was $4,000 tons, and for the
year previous $4,000 tons, showing
that the production is steadily in
creasing.
Consul General r. NJ. Bartleman,
Buenos Aires, has transmitted copy
with translation of law of Febru-
airy 81, 1912, which establishes new
rates of duty on sugar, in effect from
June 1, 1912 The law provides for
the imposition of specific rates Of
duty, which are to be gradually re-
duced from 1912 to 1921. The duty
applicable from June 1, 1912, on sugar
of not less than 90 degrees of polar
ization is O.OSS peso per kilo Cabout
cents per pound; on unrefined SUI
gar, or sugar of less than SO degrees
of polarization, DOCS peso per kilo
(about cents per pound). After that
year until 1921 the annual reduction
on both the refined and the unrefifed
is to be 0OO2 peso per kilo (peso
equal 96.5 cents; kilo equal 22O46
pounds. The present rates on the
grades of sugar mentioned above are
O.O9 and O.O7 peso per kilo, respec-
lively.

probably the feature of greatest in

Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar was
also a popular buy today, some 200
shares changing hands at an advance
Of 25 cents share, or 45 "a. 205
shares were reported sold between

$4,000 in Olaa' bonds brought the
established price of 81 10
The market generally continues
firm, and although sugar prices con-
tinue to sag almost daily, the gen
eral belief seems to be that there will
he no serious break in prices in the
near future.

WHAT HAPPENED
TO FRED JONES

Fred Jones is held at the police
station pending the arrival of the Aus
tralian boat tomorrow
Jones, who is well-connected, in
some strange way saw friend off in
an Australian port not wisely but too
well, and made an unexpected trip
to these fair isles.
He had $50 on him when the trip
started and this he paid for passage
money.
The steamship people, however, re-
gard him as a stowaway and as he has
no money and wants to return to his
home he is being taken care of by
the local police until the S. S. Mariana
arrives from the north tomorrow.
Hose Flores was arrested this morn
ing for vagrancy.

Number of Cooks and Walters Out
Estimated at 1000.

New York, May 31.-Father Knick
erbocker had his dinner Interrupted
again last night when the union wait
ers, cocks and kitchen help in six
leading hotels and two of the largest
Broadway restaurants Joined the

their or|:ers and some had been served

ployees deserted. In some of the
hotels strike breakers were placed in
the dining rooms and service contir ued
with slight Interruptions
At the headquarters of the Interna-

TO HEAR TAX CASE.
continued from Page one.l

Continued from Page one:l
filed a demurrer and arguments affect
ing this motion were heard here sever
al weeks ago. The order of the court
overruling the demurrer was received
today by Morton Albaugh, clerk of the
United States district court.
On the total value of the company
capital, it was claimed that Kansas
made an assessment of nearly $l.OOo,-
900 worth of property which was never
in use or operation in the state. "A
total tax of SIC, 606.29 was charged
against the Pullman company. An APP
peal was heard by the tax commission
sitting as a board of equalization, but
this body declined to lower the assess
ed valuations Then suit was filed N
the federal court At the same time
the Pullman company paid into court
81, 102. 68 to prevent executions in event
the action was favorable to the state.
Claim Tax Is Excessive.
Two issues were raised by the Pull
man people. They claimed that the
state had no statutory power to i'm
pose the tax and asked for an entirely
clean slate in Kansas. Again the conf
pany asked the court to find that the
tax was excessive.
The court held that a large amount
OF the company's property assessed in
Kansas was in service outside the
borders of the state and that the Kan
SdS legislature cOulu prescribe no ineIH-
cd of taxation as affecting this prop
erty. 1t was contended by the state
that the tax commission had the power
to adopt a unit system for the taxa
ton of the Pullman cars, but Judge
Pollock ruled that this power was not
possessed by law and was assumed by
the commission
TT is Obvious the court says, in
reviewing the methods of taxation.
that such method is not authorized
by the provisions of the act of 1911
above quoted, and if it was thereby
to be so authorized, is is
conceded by the defendants beyond the
power of the legislature of the state
to so provide
The trial of the case on it's merits
will be heard by Judge Pollock in To-
peka next November. In the meantime
the state is given until July 1, in which

TAFT TO VETS
President Pays Touching Tri-
butte to Veterans.
Mark Milestone of Progress
by Their Tremendous Cost.

Washington. May SIN the wv
covered amphitheater in Arlington Ma
tional cemetery here President Taft
speaking at Memorial exercises re-
ferred tn the Civil war as a strife to
maintain the limitations of the con-
stitution of the United States and re-
ferred to the suggestions of its change.
In closing the president said in part:
"It is the solemn contemplation of
what the Civil war and its conse-
quences really meant in the history of
our country that makes this days
celebration most valuable. 1t is re-
ligious regard for the pillars of popu-
lar government, for the principle OF
liberty regulated by law, for the pres
ervation of popular representative IN
situations which this day ceremonies
should consecrate and strengthen
ION this day it is the high duty or
ali the people to revitalize their love of
their country and renew their deVo-
ton to the limitations of its const1tu-
ton which have made it permanent
and useful to the people and to re-
iect with stern and flint-like front,
all light suggestions of change in those
principles which it has cost centuries
of struggle and hecatombs of lives to
secure and maintain.
A Rebuke to Congress.
President Taft rebuked congress for
its failure to provide at Arlington a
suitable edifice in which to hold the
annual memorial ceremonies and
properly attest the nations reverence
for it's honored dead.
.sSuch celebrations as this" he said,
"are important of course, to renew
the loving memories of the individual
heroes whom those of the mourners
and celebrants can remember in the
flesh, but as the Civil war withdraws
farther and farther into the past, me-
mortal day becomes less individual and
more fmpersonal, and while we do not
minimize in the slightest the indi
vidual heroism of those who are
buried here we find ourselves more
and more on each recurring day meas
uring by the extent of the enormous
total sacrifice the value to mankind
of the principles which these men
about US here died to uphold.
"As we look back over the range
of history, the growth of civilization,
the establishment of lawful and peace
full authority and finally the working
out of individual liberty through the
growth of popular government, we
max the milestones of progress by the
tremendous cost that humanity has
paid in this onward march, and by
that cost we note the greatness of the
advance and the sacredness and in
violabilitv of the PRINCIPLES achieved"

ANSWER TO STATE.
Alleged Short Change Men Are Held
ON Warrants.

Charles Warner. alias "Sheeney"
Crane, and ]. w. Hobbs, alias ]. A.
Cobbs, both alleged forgers and short
change artists, were arrested today on
state warrants after having completed
a wholesale crusade on Topeka bust
ness firms. Probably a dozen firms
were victims Of the fraudulent schemes
practiced by the two men.
1t was the practice of the two men
to visit stores and ask for change for
bills of $40 and 500 denominations
Usually the men received IS bills in
change. Then one of the men would
cleverly conceal a So bill and display
a 81 bill in its stead. He would insist
that mistake had been made and the
supposed error was always promptly
corrected.
When this game became tiresome,
the men passed worthless checks and
several worthless SIS and SIG checks
We're returned to the victims by local
banks. Just the amount the men Sc
cured in Topeka is not known, al
though they are known to have spent
a busy week here. Warner is held for
money under false pretenses,
while Hobbs will face three distinct
forgery counts.
