THE LOG CRUSADE.

The Marshal has received letter from his
deputy, J. J. Ganey, dated Orange, Texas, stating
that he had inst arrived at that point after sta
ioning deputies along the Sabine river at differ
ent points, each being furnished with two keep
ers and 8 guide aud necessary horses to enable
them to get over the work more rapidly. The
ground each has to hunt is about twelve miles
square.
The deputy states that the timber to be seized
extends to Cameron ard Vernon parishes, (seven
thousand will cover the numbe1). with about two
thousand railroad ties. Very little was found on
the Louisiana shore, but great amount was run
up the bayous on the Texas side.
Some question has been raised about the Mar
shars right to seize logs on the Texas shore of
the Sabine river. as it was not known whether
his jurisdiction extended there.
The following dispatch was received by Col
WhsrtoD:

It would appear that we were never 10 hear the
last of the Gaines case. After the litigation in
the United States court had been brought to q
close and the matter referred to the master in
chancery to make computations, Mrs. Gaines
was congratulated through the press on her
emancipation from court, but it appears all this
was little premature, for yesterday, in the Sixth
District Court. Manuel de Ltano filed suit
against Mrs. Gaines in q measure reopenng the
old case.
It will be remembered that there Was tract OF
ground included in the old Gaines claim, situated
at the corner Of Perdido and Circus Streets in the
immediate neighborhood of the Poydras Market.
II is regarding this tract that suit has been en-
tered.

WASHING OFF STAMPS.
A New Way to Suru A Dishonest Penny
Out of Waste Paper.

A New Way to SurH Dishonest Penny
out of Waste Paper.
Yesterday aitern ,on, shortly before 2 o'clock !,
Deputy Msrshals Steele and Michel arrested
Lewis Davie, aged about forty years. The
charge was selling and disposing of about 1000
| cancelled United States Internal Revenue Stamps
of two cents denomination.
The prisoner stated that # it was any otfense
he was guilty, but he was informed by Special
Agent D. Hutchinson that it was not crime.
When cautioned by the Commissioner that he
| need not eliminate himself, he said then that he
| was not guilty.
Special Internal Revenue Agent Tompkins was
called to the stand. He testified that the prisoner
| had sold him the stamps now in court. Davis is
| waste paper dealer, AMI these stamps were
| taken off old brooks and papers. The stamps
| show that they were washed off. Saw Davis yes
| terday and I paid SIS SO for the stamps, and if
they we're genuine the 1000 are worth two cents
each here. The reason he worked up this case
| was this: We received letters from the depars-
ment that this thing was going on here, and that
stamps used had been disposed OF, and came
down to ferret it out.

was next sworn, who said he uli not swear alt
the amps we're not legal; some had Ger ainly
been cancelled.
Daniel Hutchinson, next sworn, said that Davis
came to him enc y aud witness told him all
stamps never used could be redeemed. but never
said illegal stamps could be used. Davis gave
witness uncsnceled stamps but no Cancelled ones.
Commissioner Southworth said the testimony
was very damaging. The sec ion 1929 of the
Revised Statutes provides that if any person
oh Ill have in his possession wa he'd stamps such
person shall be fined $1,000. or be sentenced to
five years imprisonment, or both, and the burden
OF proof is on the person to account for the pres
ence of the stamps
