PREFERENTIAL
Fight MAY BE

Louisiaila's Fight Against Al
IoWalee of 20 Per Cent on
Cuban Sugar Not Ended
BNC. S. ALBERT.

Especial star-B Bulletin Correspondence
WASHINGTON, d. c., June 60
Cuban sug. will continue to receive
a 20 per Cd bit preferential in addition
to the redu itionS allowed by the I'm
derwood Sin mons tariff act. The
United Statls supreme court refused
to permit the filing of suit enjoining
the secretary Of the treasury from
granting this construction of the Ding
ley law and the present statute.
The state of Louisiana began the
litigation, hoping to prevent the addi-
ton of 20 per cent preferential to the
lower rates fixed last October. The
failure Of this effort affects only the
suit brought before the supreme court.
Counsel for the state may take the
matter up in another tribunal. The
merits of the controversy we're not
determined by the highest court.
About March l., when the reduced
sugar duties went into effect, the state
|of Louisiana applied to the supreme
court for permission to file suit to
|enioin the secretary of the treasury
from allowing a 20 per cent preferen-
tial on Cuban sugar imported into the
country after the new rates went into
EFFECT. II made out that It raised
sugar on it's convict labor farms and
that it would. as a state, suffer irrep-
arabic loss should the secretary con-
Itinue this preferential.
The state further claimed that un-
der the reciprocity treaty with Cuba,
Cuban sugar was given admission to
this country at 20 per cent less than
the Dingley law duties and the Dingley
rates alone. AS the reduction of du-
ties in the Underwood law was %
per cent of the Dingley duties, it was
commended that the 20 per cent pref
|erential had been wiped out.
Justice Lurton for the court held
that the secretary of the treasury's
task of determining the law by fixing
the proper duty is discretionary and
not ministerial, and hence the court
could not direct him how to proceed.
The decision affects only a suit be-
fore the supreme court and does not
preclude proceedings before the GUS
toms court of appeals. The merits OF
the case were not passed upon.
Davis Needs More Help.
J. o. Davis, collector of customs at
San Francisco, had a conference with
Assistant Secretary Malburn at the
treasury department concerning the
employment of additional customs Of
ficials to handle the extra work i'm
posed upon his district by the Panama
exposition Mr. Davis believes he
should have 200 additional men for
this work
The exposition grounds will be in
effect one large bonded warehouse,
and customs employees will inspect all
goods entering and leaving the
grounds. An appropriation of $780,.
900 to cover this additional expense
is carried in the appropriation bills
now pending in Congress. Mr. Davis
says the San Francisco exposition
buildings are now so per cent complet-
ed and predicts they will be finished
long before the opening date.

CALDWELL MAY Be.
CALLED BEFORE.
HARBOR BOARD.
Objection Registered Against
Superintendent Leaving Auto
on the Territorial Wharf

J. w. Caldwell, superintendent OF
public works, chairman of the board
OF harhor commissioners. is declared
OF be the storm center of a vigorous
protest coming from the local repre-
sentatiyes of a number of large insur-
ance agencies, in that it is alleged the
head of the harbor board is guilty of
violation of a territorial regulation
! regarding the storing OF an automobile
on territorial wharf, an infraction
which is punishable by the imposition
of stiff fine.
Chairman Caldwell drives a large
touring car, which within the past
month has been taken into Pier I. say
waterfronters, and there kept. while
owners of other cars and trucks are
prohibited from driving machines on
any of the territorial piers, the en-
trance to each wharf being placarded
with large lettered warning. that
heretofore has been generally OBJ
served.
1t was stated this morning that Cald-
we'll might be called upon to explain
his action at the next meeting of the
harbor commission.
1t appears that several large import
ers doing business at the port have
had their attention called by the local
insurance agencies to the fact that the
provisions OF the territorial law in re-
spect to fire protection and the re-
striction of automobiles on wharyes
has been violated The prediction has
been ventured that unless stop is
put to the practice. material increase
in the rate imposed against consign-
ees of cargo win follow.
In this connection it was stated to-
day that the entrance of the machine
operated by the chairman of the har-
Dor commission to Pier Z. yesterday
before the sailing of the United States
army transport Sheridan for the coast,
nearly caused serious accident to an
aged woman passenger in that vessel.
The woman was endeavoring to leave
the structure when Chairman CaId'
wells machine crossed the main en-
trance to position it usually occupies
on the wharf. Several port officials
realized the plight of the pedestrian
and she was snatched from the path
of the machine. escaping its wheels
