stock Of Bonokamp Dltto.n In tho possession Of
Mr.. CausSeuus on which the tax had not been
paid. and ault was brought aganat him. Mt
ClausseotuB, however, convinced tho Collector
that tho said bitters Was forwarded to eomo
house In tho United States by Mr. Mbseoht, OF
Prussia, who subsequently learned that tho
houeo waa not In good financial standing, and
therefore directed the goods to him. Fifty boxes
Of tho consignment, Mr., CIaussonius ntAted,

purchased bitters from Mr. Clau.seutua long be-
fore the tsn,o ho claimed to have received tho
