B, April 4—Steps to- wards diverting’ much of: the ‘West Indian trade from the United States to Canada have been taken by the St: John board of trade. which has ap- pointed a committee to interview Sir Wilfrid Laurier when he reaches this city Friday on his way to England. Sir Wilfrid will be asked to bring up the matter of a preference in trade between Canada and the West Indles before the colonial office in London, this step following a report from H. B. Schofield, one of the recent Cana- dian board of trade delegates to the West Indies. Much of the West Indies trade is now with the United States, but it is stated that the Leeward isl- ands have declded to grant Canada a preference in tariff. A resolution was also passed by the board favoring preference on a reciprocal basis throughout the empire. Wisconsin Judicial Election.

AGAINST ~THE BILL IN EACH HOUSE. —_— St. Paul, April 3—The eompromise proposal of the raliroads on the rate question was transmitted to the legis- lature by the tonference committee, together with a 2-cent passenger fare bill. The report was received with- out comment and the 2-cent bill passed without argument, only four votes be- ing cast against the bill In each branch of the legislature. In each house 1t was simply & case of calling the roll on the passage of the bill. The report reviewed the work of the committee, the various meetings held end the action taken at each, included the offer of a compromise received from the raflroads. It wound up by recommending the 2-cent bill. The report contained the proposals which the committee had been given to un- derstand would be made and the writ- ten proposal received Monday. As the proposal received was not what was expected the committee reported that it could not recommend accept- ence and in the same sentence recom- mended the passage of the 2-cent rate bill. The provisions of the bill as passed are as follows: “Section 1. No rallroad company owning, operating or using a line of railrond within, or partly within, the state of Minnesota, shall charge or col- lect more than 2 cents per mile for carrying, over its road on any trip, wholly within this state, any passen- ger of twelve years of age or over, to- gether with baggage not exceeding 150 pounds in weight, or more than 1 cent per mile for any such passenger under twelve vears of age, together with baggage not exceeding seventy- five pounds in weight. Penalty for Violating the Law. “Section 2. Any railroad company, or any officer, agent or representative thereof, who shall .violate any pro- vision of this act, shall be guilty of a felony, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine of not ex- ceeding $5,000 or by imprisonment in the state prison for a period not ex- ceeding five years, or by both such fine and imprisonment. “Section 3. This act shall take ef- fect and be in force from and after the first day of May, 1907.” The senate passed under suspension of rules H. F. No. 776, which autho- rizes county boards to bury old sol- diers and saflors, veterans of the Civil or Spanish-American wars, at an ex- pense of not to exceed $50, the coun- tles to be reimbursed by the state. Senator Patrick Fitzpatrick’s initla- tlve and referendum bill, which was the speclal order of business In the senate, failed of passage by two votes, the vote being 30 ayes and 26 nays. A majority vote being neces- sary for its passage, and as 32 constl- tutes a majority it failed to pass. The senate in committee of the whole, with Senator B. E. Sundberg of Kennedy presiding, reported only one bill for passage. This was Senator E. H. Canfield’s bill, 8. F. No. 329, which provides for an appropriation of $200,- 000 for each of the next two years to aid in bullding and repairing bridges and constructing and repairing high- ways in the state, the money to be ex- pended under the supervision of the county boards of the countles in which the improvements are made. Tonnage Tax Bill Killed. The tonnage tax bill was killed in the house. The arguments against the Injustice of placing a special tax on one community and one Industry won out against the argument for get- ting something for the state and the appeals to “hit the steel trust”” The vote was close, there being fifty-one for the bill and fifty-elght agalnst. The bill was probably the most im- portant ‘before the leglislature, not only hecause of the amount directly involved, this beilng probably $1,500,- 000 per year on the present output, but because it affected the develop- ment of the whole northern part of the state. The agitatlon for a tonnage tax was started immediately after the adoption of the wide-open tax amendment last fall. A tonnage tax bill providing a 28-cent tax was introduced by R. H. Jefterson of Bingham Lake and an- other providing a 10-cent tax was in- troduced by H. O. Bjorge of Lake Park. Later they combined on a 10- cent tax bill, then a 5-cent tax bill and lastly in a bill classifying the ores, those below 49 per cent of iron being taxed as at present and those above being subjected to a graduated tax ranging from 2 to 7 cents. This bill was amended to insert a flat 5-cent rate on ore above 49 per cent and re- ported out by the committee on taxes and tax laws 'and this was the bill be- fore the house. The house passed the bill prohibit- ing. shooting of firearms within three miles of the corporate limits of St. Paul or Minneapolls. The bill was in- troduced by Swan Nelson of Minneap- olis and was intended to protect resi- dents outside. the city limits where there is considerable shooting. HEADS BOARD OF DIRECTORS J. J. Hill Will 8till Direct Policy of Great Northern. St. Paul, April 4—Regarding the resignation of James J. Hill as pres- ident of the Great Northern railroad and his' electlon as chairman of the board: of directors it is stated that it In noi sense meant the retirement of Mr. Hill from the direction of Great Northern ‘affairs. Mr. Hill's duties as chairman will be practically identical With the’dutles he has been perform-: to do with the general direction of the road’s policles and finances rather than directly with the operation of the Droperty. It has been tunderstood for some jtime that whenever Mr. Hill retired he would be succeeded by his son, Louis' W. Hill. The latter is a Yale graduate, who on leaving college en- tered the operating department of the road and has since perfected himself in the school of rallroading. - He has been for some years vice president of the Great Northern and is consid- ered a very capable raflroad man. Gradually, it s expected, bLe wlil take upon himself more and more of the responsibility of the management, though it will doubtless be long before James J. Hill's position as chairman of the board becomes a nominal office. MAYOR DUNNE IS DEFEATED Chicago Voters Turn Down Mu- nicipal Ownership. Chicago, April 4—The revised ‘un- officlal returns of Tuesday’s election show that Busse, the Republican can- didate for mayor, has been elected by a plurality of 13,016 over Dunne. The entire Republican city ticket was elected with the exception of Edward{ C. Young, the candidate for city treas- urer, who was beaten by John E. Trea- ger, Democrat, by 7.983. The city council will be Democratic by the same number as the old council, thir- ty-six Democrats to thirty-four Repub- licans. The traction ordinances recently passed by the city council over the veto of Mayor Dunne and which pro- vide for the immedlate rehabilitation of the street car systems were carried by a vote of 165,646 to 132,720. These ordinances were favored by the Re- publicans and they declared in their platform that the best interests of the city demanded their adoption. The Democracy insisted upon municipal ownership by purchase or condemna- tion of the street car properties. The fear that the condemnation operation might entail many years of litigation, during which time the city would be compelled to put up with its present miserable transportation facilities, was a stroug factor in bringing out a heavy vote in favor of the ordinances. As the matter now stands the street car companies are compelled to pay to the city 55 per cent of their net income, allowing the city at all times access to their books. They are to provide continuous passage from one section of the city to another for a fare of 5 cents and to grant universal transfers. The city is to allow them a franchise for twenty years with the option of purchasing the systems for $50,000,000 at any time by giving no- tice six months in advance of the date at which it proposes to take over the propertles.

London; April 4—Great Britain has not withdrawn or in any way altered her request that the reduction of the expenditures on armaments should be placed on the programme of subjects to be discussed at The Hague peace conference.
