WASHINGTON Aug I * Attorney Ocn-
eral McKentia toda } pave a hearing to parties
interested ID th ? question Involved in section
21 of the new tarllT act Some da } ago the
secretary of the treasury received Informa
tion from the collector of custon.6 at Chicago
that a large Invoice of teae and other goudt
from Japan had IKTII received at that port
over a Canadian railroad and asking whether
the 10 per cent discriminating dutv provided
for in section 22 applied to these good * The
question was at ouce referred to the attor
ney general for un opinion At the request
of the IloHton L Maine railroad compan }
however , the attorney general decided to give
a hearing todav to persons Interested Tom
er Secretary Carlisle appeared for the Bos-
tea i. Maine railroad aud Partner Assistant
Secretar } ' Hamlin le-prtficnttd HIP Associated
Board of Trade and the Merchants' associa
tion of Boston.
Mr Ilamltu was the first speaker The
question , he bald was whether goods shipped
from China and Japan to polrur. ID the United
States through Canada were importations
from Canada w Ithln the meaning of the stat
ute. In the case of a transaction , for In
stance said he of the sale of gooJs In China
to a merchant In Boston there WHS no
lutcrmi-dlar } The transit of the goods
though tht1 } might come In through Canada
was never Interrupted. The goods he In
rifted , could not lalrl } be said to be cx-
portatlons from Canada Mr Hamlln cited
a great many rulings , both of the Treasu- }
department and the Deportment of Justice
in support of his contention In the cane
of roods going through United States ter-i
tory in bond from a point in Canada to an
other point In Canada the solicitor of the
treasury. In an exhaustive ruling had de
cided that ruch eiitr } of goods did not con
stitute an Importation within the meanlnc
of the htatuteHe contende-d. therefore , thst
converse ] } fODd coming Into the United
States through Canada In transit from an
other rouiitr } were not exportatlons from
Canada The decision of the above ques
tion Mr Hamlin said hinged upon the con
struction to be placed upon these words of
the statute "Coming Into the United Stutffi
frtm" contiguous countries He submltt u
that the words did not appl } to goods In tran
sit The Contur } dlrMonor } defined "from"
as expressing "de-purture from u point'
These goods took their departure- from China
or Japan , not from Canada As we'll , he said
might U be contended that a man traveling
from New Tori , to Washington through Bal
timore "departed" from Baltimore The goodf
did not appear In the Canadian reports as ex
ports Irom Canada nor In our reports as Im
ports Irom Canada
OITES OTHER AUTHORITIES
He cited as an analogous statute the law
requiring the deportation of Chinaman "To
the country whence" they came In con
struing that statute the attorney general had
decided the words "Irom whence he came , '
meant his ultimate countr } of departure
( China ) . uclt-Qs the Chinaman had 'been
naturalized by the Dominion government
It would be strange , Indeed , said Mr Ham
lin. if th * > country through which he came
should bo considered the country from
whence he hame And , with goods in
bond It was their i > lace of shipment not
a point en route which must be considered
Ho hpoke of the control labor law as offer
ing another analog } Laborers unlawfully
coming to the United States must be de
ported by the carriers to the place "from
w hence they came"
Mr Hamlin also devoted some attention
to thp old Cape of Good Hope ( Statute to
show that the object of these discriminating
duties was to compel direct trude with the
UnlU-d States and eliminate the prohU > of
the middleman Mr Hamlln argued that
the statute as shown by its history , related
enl } tovessels and ventured the assertion
that it had "been placed in the fctatuteat
the Instigation of veo ul owners To this
however , the attorney general demurred
saying he understood that Senator Elkins
wa its author And If vessels enl } were
meant wh } , he said , was contiguous terri
tory mentioned'
Mr Cai lisle at thte point Interrupted to
nrgtt that tlie word vessels , whether for our
ports or tbo > of contiguous territor } , qual
ified the whole
In conclusion Mr Hamlin spoke of the
vast importanceof the construction of the
statute It would require an hour , be nald ,
for him to begin to tell of the Interests
which -would be affected b } an adverse rul
ing And though such a ruling might ulti
mate ! / - , reversed by the courts , the ruling
Itself "laid do an Immense amount of Injury
The west northwest and northeast , he said ,
wore Just beginning towake up to a recog
nition of the. far-reaching character of the
question He nhked that those opposed to
this BUggested taxation be given the benefit
of any doubt
Joseph Nimrno of New York , who IB con
nected with the Bureau of Statistics asked
to be heard and went Into a lengthy re > -
vlpw of the- subject It hud been a war of
+ he transportation Interests of the United
9laUe and Canada Since IMS Canada had
be said , deported hcnelf not only as a gov
ernment but as a railroad and canal cor
poration To the craftlners of tmlltta she
had added thp tilcks of business She Had
built the Canadian Pacific at a cost of $21I > . -
000.000 to divert American commerce Irom
American ships and American rallrcads He
eonfeed he did not know how tills con
troverted clause had got into the statute ,
but he thought it wus cunnlngl } devised to
atop the pieecnt evil
CARLISLE CLOSES
Mr. Carlisle who had been called Into thp
case only last night. In closing the hearing
&ild that if section 22 did not appl } only to
tliotasels he agreed vlth Mr. Hamlln that
the words "cameinto" meant Imported
But he contended that the whole statute Je-
latcd only to ' goods Irnpo-ted in vessels of
the United States " The old statute did not
meet all the requirement ! . While it im
post the discriminating duties ou cargoes
in vessels not of thp United States ( except
whore treat } stipulations exempted them )
coming directly to the United States jKirln.
It did not touch goods brought In such ves
sels to contiguous territor } and shipped to
the United States HP argued that the >
clause had t t-n inserted to prevent Just
euch roundabout Importations , which now
cac.-ped tbe dtarrlmlnuUin ; tax He quoted
from Senate- Allison s explanation that the
amendment made no change In existing
ctatuie t-xcejit as to such peed * coming into
the" United States from contiguous territory
which now < * Mtij > ed tbt > discriminating duty
Mr McKenna asked If the last claute of
the btatutp exempting such poodt imparted
in the usual course uf the retail trade did
not militate against Mr Carlisle' * construc
tion , to which the latter responded the
worJs "buch goods" must refer to goods
Imparted in vete lE not of the United Stutn.
After Mr Carlisle concluded the attorue }
general pointed out that there must have
bewi in thp minds of the legislators who
framed the clause- meaning for the sub
stitution of the wools "came Into" for "Im
parted" when applied to contiguous terri
tory
Mr Carlisle asked if good : In bond from
Ckli.a could be considered goods Imported
from Canada The attorney gcitonil bald
they were not Importations Then Mr Car
lisle eald that fact furnished an adequate
explanation If such goods were not 1m-
uortatlocE then the words "came into"
would have to b used The attorney gen
eral gavt < Mr Corliulp and Mr Hamlln until

the democratic atmosphere for some time to
come. W. H Herdman , TSdmund Burke and
Ed P Smith alleged that Pat Ford and Ed
Rothery had worked against Ed Howell and
should therefore be branded as traitors and
Incontinent ! } bounced Irom the deliberations
of their party This action uas attempted ,
but was Toted down by two to one , and the
tw o statesmen from the Third vard are Etlll
member * , of the committee. But the effort
to avenge HowcH'e defeat was 'sufficient to
raise a typical democratic row in the com
mittee and the debate on the question nas
sufficiently bitter to indicate that all io
not harmouj in the democratic ranks
Chairman E E Howt.ll called the com
mittee to order soon after 2 o'clock and the
main business of the meeting MBE din-
patched before the Btar performance was
aunounced. There w as a dlv ieion on the
question whether a county convention and
primaries Ehould be called to select dele
gates to the stute convention TV H Herd-
man moved that the delegates be selected
by the committee but J J. O'Connor moved
an amendment to the effect that a conven
tion chould be held Monday , August " 3 , and
that the primaries should be held on the
preceding Saturday Mr. O'Connor sug-
geoted that the rank und file of the partj
had had quite enough of autocratic methods
on the part of the leaders , and If the com
mittee refused to allow them to have a
volco in the ( .election of the delegates the }
would Eignlf ) their disapproval at the polls
Ed P Smith suggested that while he be
lieved that it was a useless expense to trj
to hold a convention , a good many of the
country precincts were not represented ut
the meeting aud it might be better to tllow
primaries to be held
AFRAID OF LOCAL ISSUES.
Herdman and Edmund Burke protested
that to hold primaries would have the effect
of dragging the local factional fight Into
the state campaign and that it would prove
disastrous to the party. Thcj declared that
the Douglas county democrats weue in har-
moiis In so far as state and national politick
vveie concerned , but Jf primaries were hole !
there would be a bitter contest which would
Injure their chances of success After sev
eral other Lommittecmen had declared in
favor of ji convention Mr Herdmau with
drew his motion , declaring that Ills col
leagues would rue the day the } carried the
light into the primaries
At the suggestion of a country delegate
Mr O'Connor's motion was amended making
the date of the primaries Thursday Augunt
iC , and that of the convention Saturdaj
August 28 , aud then adopted The repre
sentation will be at Ubual nine delegates
from each ward in the city live from tach
country mecitiet , and sixteen from South
Omaha.
On motico of J J O'Connor the committeemen -
men from each v.ard were authorized to all
any vncnncltx that might exist John Sbcean
und Jewieph Lang were named to succeed
Harry Blum and Dave Shanrahan from the
First ward There wereno vacanclefo In the
Second , but when Ed Rothery BuggtBted Gut.
Carey ao a auccesaor to Richard Uurdiiih from
the Third the trouble ) broke loose W H
Herdmau wtp recopulzed and elated that be
had something to eay M-iilcb might un well
be said right then as aoy ttme He was op
posed to allowing a man to tit and vote in
the commltttee who had worked and vutcil
against tbo nominee * of his part } Be
wanted to ask Mr Ford and Mr Rother }
whether the } had worked for the democratic
ticket ID the last cltj campaign
CAUSTIC REMARKS OY FORD.
Both the gentlemen Bfidressed i.tuted that
they had voted the ticket , and Pat Ford sug
gesled with fciniie evidence of accumulatlnp
wrath that he wafi a democrat before In. .
accuser wo boru and he was a better demo
crat than he WUK now lln was not la poll
Ik * far revenue hlmoelf , and he did no
spend hU time hanging aiound thecommtttei
headquarteri. to find out where the mone- >
was Ht- admitted that , he. had ciot voted foi
Heiwell , but aside from tb t he bad supported
the- entire ticket , . ,
Herdman then mo ed that Ford and
Rather } be expelled from the. committee. He
declared that thu > was a duty that the com-
uittttw owed to tb democratic party Thtet
men had not onlj worked for Frank E
Moore * , but the } had maliciDuM ) bltndernl
the- candidate of tbeir own part } He de
clared that they ought to be branded iifl
traitors aud cetracUivd by all true demucrau.
Ed P Smith dfclare-d that he would be
derelict In lilt- duty ac a democrat If he did
not eiidorte all that Herdman had aald He-
eulogized Howell uid denounced Woore-B He
asserted that Moorte had been elected clrrk
of th district court by A. P AVOICE while
Howell had always fought the order Any
Irishman who would support Moore * under
thuflt- circumstances wae not fit to be a
democrat "If that U jour kind of de
mocracy " concluded "Gftd eparr me from
that brand "
Pat Ford took the floor at thta point and
related a little ancient history a * aii explana
tion of hit refusal to gupport Howell He
had tlwayk worked fur HowiU whni he vat
running for tiit couuuli , but two jean , cgp
when he vvae himself a candidate for the

he had replied , "for Mr Howell is m }
friend "
"I wonder If } ou will ever get old enough
to have a little Bewe" " was the comml -
slouer's leply , and thereupon he had de
clared that hp vould drive the last nail in
How ell's political coffin and he had done it
You can finme out of this committee if
jou wont to" he concluded , "but I will go
out of this room a better democrat than an >
o' you. "
PIONEERS IN DEMOCRACY
Mr Rother } said that he felt Juat about
the waj Pat did about it and J J O'Con
nor pro-ceded to replj to Hprdman He de
clared that Ford and Rothery had made the
Third ward democratic jeare ago , and if the
committee was going to dismiss every man
who had scratched a part } ticket It might
just as well abolish the democratic part }
Edmund Burke declared that Ford had
been expelled from the cltj central commit
tee In IBS ! ) for supporting the republican
candidate In the cit } treeieurer fight be
tweeu Jotn A McShane and John Rusn
and Ford declared that It wafi a lie , as he
