BUTTER MAY ADVANCE TO IN A SHORT TIME OWING REDUCTION. the Present Duty--The Tariff Changes That Will Affect Canada Montreal Produce Men Look For Dearver Wheat in Canada. Montreal, April B.--While wheat flour is put on free list, a duty of 10 per.cent. is imposed against countries which levy a duty on American flour. This will exclude flour from Canada and many other countries. That the reduction of the duty on Canadian wheat from twenty-five to cents, as announced in the new democratic tariff revision bill, pre pented in the United States house, wilt mean a tremefidous increase in the export of this Canadian | pro duct, and 'a corresponding raise in prices to the Canadian consumer, is the opinion of Montreal produce men. "We will make a fortune," said one grain dealer, jubilant over the pros poct of the great United States mar kat being thrown open to the Cana- dian denler. : Paper manufacturers saw a stimula ting effect on the manufacture in Canada, and the striking cuts in duties on eottons, woollens and ag- ricultural products, including horses, cattle, sheep, barley, vegetables, hay. fruits, cheese, poultry, eggs and foodstuffs genmetally, would he very significant. utter, it was claimed, would ad- vance within a very few days lo cally, hy the proposed.reduciion from ix to. three vents a pound.

American Sugar Planter Shot By Wealthy Cuban, Havana, Cuba, Aprit 8.--Radoph Warren, son of Jere Warren, a pro- wigent American sugar planter, died in hospital here from a pistol wound in the abdomen, which he received in a duel yesterday with Hannibal Mesa, a member of 'a wealthy Cu ban family. The two young men have recently had several physical encounters and are reputed to be rivals Jor a wo- man's gfiections. As a result Mesa challenged Warren, which, according to the Cubun code, conferred the jehoice of weapons on Warren. ~The duel was at Chirty-five paces. Warren fell at the fost fire; Neaa was not harmed. Warren was taken to a hospital, where he made a statement to the police that he had aecidentally shot = himself whily nandling a revolver. Immediately af: ter the duel Mesa sailed for New York on the steamer Havana. Mesa's seconds are reported to have besn the ex-speaker of the House of Representatives, « Colonel Orestes Ferrara, and a major of the Cuban army, buat the utmost reticence is being maintained on all sides re garding the affair. The extreme range at which the duel was fought is said to have been ar- ranged for the purbose of minimizing the danger, but Mesa is an expert shot at all ranges, and Warren was NORMAN E.
