Sugar Men Beaten.
Washington, Oct. 15.—Judge McComas. of the district supreme court, has denied the appllcaiion of the Miles Sugar Manufacturing company of Louisiana for a mandamus to compel Secretary Carlisle to appoint inspectors to ascertain the sugar production of the company. The object of the suit, it is understood, was to test the legality of the recent repeal of the sugar bounty provision of the McKinley law and also to lay the foundation for an appeal to congress for payment of bounty for the current year.
