Philadelphia, July Chairman Mckee
of the Independent Republican State COM
mittee, issned call for a meeting of thai
body in this city on the 27thin instant to con-
by the regular Republican committee. and
while Independent candidates, speaking fol
themselves alone. have rejected it. and In
dependents of this city say the committee
will doubtless reject the propositions and
probably refuse sanction to any agreement
of candidates, Stewart, Duff. Merrick and
Junkin, are to have new convention, at
which none of the present candidates on
either ticket will be eligible for renomina-
tion. Senator Cameron has decided he
would make no more overtures to independ-
ents. In conversation with leading Penn
sylvanians yesterday he announced his pro-
gramme for the rest of the campaign. The
stalwarts in Pennsylvania will make an ag-
gressive fight. They will consider the Inde-
pendents as much their enemies, if not more
so, than the Democrats, and no concessions
of any sort will be given. Senator Cameron
said it would be better to make a straight
out fight with certainty of defeat than patch
up some sort of a compromise and then be
beaten.

Montreal. July l6-The most extensive
seizure ever made here for years by the Gus
toms took place yesterday. 1t amounts to
between $4,000 and $4,000. For some
time past officials of this port have had their
suspicious aroused that New York tea
brokers were engaged in making false >en-
tries of teas in order to cheat the govern
ment out of 10 per cent. duty A sharp
lookout was kept and it fell to the lot of
Deputy Collector O'Hara to attach con-
signment transmitted through the Merchant
Forwarding Company by Dudley, Hall &
Co. of New York to Kirke Lockery & Co.
wholesale merchants of this city. When
the present tariff was imposed the duty on
tea imported direct from the country where
grown was entirely abolished, but in order
to encourage direct trade with those coun-
tries differential duty of 10 DER cent. was
placed upon all indirect shipments. There
is no doubt the law has been evaded to a
great extent by New. Workers.
