St. LOUIS Republican, 14th: about a
month ago number of empty whisky bar
rels, with the stamps uncanceled, were
found on the steamboat Emma G. Elliott, be-
longing to the Memphis packet company and
on the relation Of Collector Sturgeon, pro-
ceedings were at once instituted against the
boat. The penalties are very severe in the
premises, the statutes imposing fine of two
hundred dollars for each package and pro-
viding that every steamboat, ra1lroad-car,
cart, dray, wagon, or other vehicle, and all
horses or other animals engaged in trans
porting such packages shall be forfeited to
the government. In this case it became ap-
parent that the owners and officers of the
boat had nothing to do with or knowledge of
the illicit transportation, but that the pack
ages were struggled on board by certain en-
ployes. The law makes no discrimination,
however, the proceedings not being against
the owner, but against the boat t'elf The
action was laid over, however, to give an OPP
portunlty for arranging the matter with the
commissioner of internal revenue, the only
person having any discretion in the matter,
and he has consented to its being compro-
missed by the payment of a fine OF twenty
five dollars and costs. As a matter of form,
judgment of forfeiture was entered against
the boat yesterday in the United States dis
trict court"
