Especial. Trinidad Hustado, collector
of customs at this. place, has resigned
and is succeeded by Don J. Olive, of the
City of Mexico. By recent ruling of
the custon-house authorities, the import
duty on cattle has been taken off. This
is a good thing for the Texans, as the
duty on cattle was formerly Sl.I5, for
males and 1915 for females. The duty
on goods imported into Mexico under
the free zone regulations is 80 cents for
900 mounds.

Pursued by a Phantom.

In the south part Of this city lives
butcher by the name Of Buckley. Sew
eral years ago, when unmarried, he
told his immediate friends that q tall
man, dressed in black, followed him
eyerywhere-On the street to the thea
ire, to church. Every movement of
the butcher was accompanied by n SIM
liar one on the part Of the ghostly WIS.,
liant. Finally, when life was almost
torture to him, he decided to start for
California, hoping thus TO eyade the
phantom. The trip west was made
without incident of any kind, and as
mile after mile was passed over, and as
the days waned into nights, he began
to breathe freer. When San Francisco
was reached he believed that he was
free from his ghost. He went to tho
mines and for weeks was happy. Ho
gained in flesh and decided to start in
business. One day when he was walk
ing on the highway, he CHANGED to
| glance over his shoulder, and was hor-
rifed to discover the dreaded being.
| 1t was clothed in the same suit of black.
| Its face wore a demonac smile, and its
| whole appearance seemed to say: "You
| cannot elude mel" The butcher start
| ed on q run, and now and then turned
around only to discover the shadow
tapping his footsteps AT the entrance
of the town he again glanced back and
found himself alone. The visits after
that required only at intervals, but
they were sufficient in numbers to con-
vince him that he was not free. His
stay in California lasted several years.
lie went from town 10 town and from
mine to mine, always accompanied by
the man in black. He married q wor-
thy young woman with the belief that
by taking partner to his joys he might
also get rid of some of his sorrows.
The result was in no way satisfactory,
for his joys were few and his sorrows
many. Again the thought came to him
that it would be well to start for the
East. This was done with the same
results on his journey home that had
accompanied his western trip In q
few weeks he opened a butchers shop.
Two months had barely elapsed when
he was again visited by the phantom,
and thereafter it never left his side. A
year after his return his wife died, and
several months later he remarked. He
has moved from house to house, with
the hope of gaining rest, but to no pur-
pose.
In conversation to-day he said: at
follows me everywhere. At night /
wake up to find it standing over me,
slowly moving its index finger up and
down, and It's lips moving as though it
was talking. Some nights the sewing
machine will run for hours unceas-
ingly. At breakfast, dinner and sup
per it stands directly behind me, and
wherever so it is by my side, Life is
afearful burden, and | don't know
what to do. 1t is now standing along
side of me, on my left side, mean.
"What is its appearance?'
at is about six feet tall, very slen-
der, of pale, yellow appearance.
can't place him among any of my dead
friends and relatives, and don't know
of soul that have ever injured. The
most curious phase of the whole is
that recently my wife, mother and bro
ther have seen the phantom, but only
when have been present. Hartford

consideration need not deter you. Look at
ourcandidate. He don't believe 10 the plst
form. lie has declared time and time
again that he spits upon the revenue tariff
idea that tariff should be LEVIED with
view oprotect as well as for the purpose Of
procuring revenue. Mr. Randall and his
friends all endorse our candidate We
also propose to arrange matters so that
when one of the foolish fellows who really
believe in the true Democratic tariff for
revenue doctrine comes along, and says: ~
cannot vote with you because your candi-
date denounces tariff doctrines which | hold
to be vital" we may reply: "Why, Lord
bless you; that little consideration need not
deter you. Look at our platform. 1t is
sound. 1t does not agree with the candl-
date. We nominated him, so that we
might catch the Randall Democrats who
always vote with the Republicans unless
they can get either the platform or the can
didate; and also that he might carry Cook
County, it being understood that no other
Democrat would be permitted to carry it,
Now, in this way, we hope to unite all
the Democrats of the party--to gather in
the Morrison nine.tenths of the party by
the platform; the Randall one-tenth by the
candidate; and lot of outside people
the liberty loving men Of the Republican
party-by the well-known position of the
man at the head of the ticket. This being
our Intention, we respectfully ask our Rev
enue Democrat correspondent to cease from
troubling and be at rest. He may believe
what he pleases to believe, but he must not
annoy the party with his forcible and logl-
cal, but (under the circumstauces) unrea.
