Weustis of Port Townsend, collector of customs for the state of Wash- Gngton, is in town today looking He is en route over the situation. ‘to Grand Forks, where the recent friction occurred. The row arose over Republic business. The overland haul from ‘the C.P.R. at Grand Forks to Re- public is 35 miles, while the pull rom Marcus on the Spokane Falls & Northern railway is 80 miles. Teumsters charge one cent per pound for the former trip, and two «ents for the latter. As a conse- squence Republic merchants have been shipping their supplies from ‘the eastern states in bond via the aC.P.R. to Grand Forks. The loss of business to the Great ‘Northern was heavy and it induced the American customs service to re- fuse admission of bonded goods back into the states on technical grounds. The tie-up was only tem- porary as Colonel Heustis arranged for the bonded goods to be brought Znto the states from Grand Forks cunder the supervision of an Ameri- “can customs officer acting as con- “voy. ‘ ‘That plan is still in force but Colonel Heustis is now going over there to make permanent arrange- ments, ‘ft is desired that a convoy be placed both at Grand Forks and Cascade, but the expense would be too heavy, and | shall decide on which place to have the new ser- “The railways here at Rossland also want an American officer for attending to the transfer of freight for the states, from the C.P.P. to tthe Spokane Falls & Northern rail- way. [donot think that the cus- ‘toms department will consent. If the two railway lines were connec- ted here, bonded goods in carload lots could be returned to the-states without difficulty, but unless that is Mone all packages in bond must be sealed on leaving the states. They wan then be transferred here.” Colonel Heustis: is accompanied ‘by Allan Cameron, assistant general freight agent of the C.P.R.
