EXPORT TAX ON TOBACCO.

EXPORT TAX ON TOBACCO.
NEW YORK, July 14.-A letter from
Havana says the last issue of the Off
cial Gazette published an order from
the minister of the colonies that the
remaining surtax of 5 per cent. on ex-
port duties on tabacco, should be abol-
ished from July LIST, this year, but
shippers find the custom house con-
tinues to charge the old tax. To their
complaints the administration an
swered no orders had been received
from Madrid to grant the reduction.
This ca seS shippers loss and anoy-
ance. Besides this, it appears that
among the reforms contemplated, to-
bacco had been overlooked entirely.
The export duty on tobacco is lev
led on the quintal without regard to
quality or price of the article, thereby
establishing detrimental charge on
scrap tobaccos. The same is the case
with cigars, which pay export duty
on the Thousand without regard to
the cost in view to these other griev-
apceS.
A provincial deputation from Pan
anna, del Rio, has sent dispatch to
the Cuban representatives in the
cortes, telling the Indifference with
which the tobacco question had been
treated in the prospect of reforms has
caused painful impression in Veulta
Abajo, and it is urged that the Cuban
representatives should insist upon the
concessions asked in favor of the to-
bacco growers, and merchants. Cuba
has at present 1,52l 1884 inhabitants,
including the Cinnamon.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. EVENTS
IN SPORTING CIRCLES WITNESS
ED BY 10000 PEOPLE.
Teemer, of McKeespOrt; Gau-
dau, of st. Louis, and
Hamm Entered.
Teemer Shows His POwels--One
of the Finest Contests in
American Waters.
Trotting At Chicago in Which
Smuggler's Time at Hart
ford is Beaten.

MEANWHILE, Pa, July b. The
preliminary heats in the Connaut
lake regatta were witnessed by fully
10000 people. The weather was all
that could be desired; but slight
breeze made the water rough. The
race for single SOULS was finished at
dark, the first heat was signalled by the
starter at 5 D. m. There were sixteen
entries.
The first heat was won by Mckay,
in 2I minutes. AZ seconds; A. Hamm,
second. in 81 minutes, 30 seconds. The
water was quite rough at this time,
and the breeze increased for some
time.
The second heat followed quickly,
and was won. by Teemer and Gau-
daur. the others being so far behind
as to make no effort to win, and there
by secure a position in the final
races.
The third heat was the best of the
series, owing to the improved condi-
tion of the water.
There were six men in the race, and
all pulled so close together that 1t
seemed to be nobody's race, until the
stake boat had been turned, and the
struggle on the home stretch showed
several stragglers. Priddy, who had
shown wonderful rowing powers,
before the turn, secured the lead at
the buoy and maintained 1t to the
finish Time-20 minutes and 40
seconds: Teneyeck second-20 min
utes and 80 seconds; ana Weis-
gerber third-in Fl minutes and
SO seconds. 1t was growing
dark and the winners of the last heat
were dissatisfied with the referees
decision to finish the race, as they were
tired, while all others had rested. The
referee finally gave 40 minutes for
rest, and at 8 O'Clock the final race was
called. The six contestants above
named, were placed in fine order, but
it was SO dark the color oarsman
could scarcely be discerned at short
distance. AL pulled together to the
buoy, which Teemer passed in ex-
actly 10 minutes, the others but a few
seconds behind. The water was beau
tiful, but, as to rowing, no DESCRIPTION
could be given, as no one could get
near enough to make out men, time,
or stroke of oarsmen. At the finish,
j. Teemer, of McKeesport, came in
first, 20 minutes and seconds; Quad
au. of st. Louis, second; A. Hamm,
third; Mckay, fourth; Teneyck, fifth,
and Priddy, sixth.
The race was satisfactory, with the
exception of the darkness for the final
race, and certainly one of the best
contests ever seen in American waters
: The rowing course was beautiful, and
all the oarsmen acquitted themselves
creditably. The only bad feature was
the crowds of roughs and gamblers
who infested every nook and point Of
advantage about the lake. Rowdyism
was rampant around the railway sta.
ton, and in the village of Evansburg
fights and robberies were reported
from sunset to midnight. About 1913
D. M, a man named Mason was shot
but at this hour it IS not known WIFI

Though it may DE irregular for a

have known these plasters to cure
Spinal Weakness where the patient
had been confined for months to his
bed. A blacksmith of my acquaint-
ance was severely injured in the back
by the kick of a horse; four ALLOoCK's
Porous PLAsTERs quickly relieved
him of excruclating agony and cured
him in week. Another patient, suf-
fering with Neuralgia of the Heart.

In Asthma, know of a case where
they were worn for three months and
fully restored the health. In another
case where a patient had Sporadic
Cholera. nothing relieved him until
he put on three( ALLCoCK's Porous

lowing facts: My daughter, ten
years old, contracted the chills Au-
gust, 1877, on the Ohio river. No pre-
scription ever effected more than
temporary suppression of the disease,
no tonics kept it off. But the use of
two bottles of Hughes Tonic cured
her completely. She had no chill af
ter taking the first dose. l also rec
commended the Tonic in the case of a

year. The child is perfectly cured by
the use of one bottle. l recommend

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Jan. 3, 1898.
Messrs. r. A. Robinson * Co.,
Louisville, Ky.
Gentlemen-In reply to your favor
of the Both ult, we will say that we
have found Hughes Tonic one OF the
best selling chill remedies that we
have sold during the past summer.
We have had many verbal testimoni-
ais from our friends as to it's efficacy
IN curing chil.s and fever, and regard
it as preparation of much more than
ordinary merit. We have sold Q5)
fifteen gross of it sicce May last, and
have noticed that its sale since the
chill season has been over has contin-
ued longer than any other chill remedy
that we have handled. We like to sell
proprietary articles of merit, and in
selling Hughes Tonic we feel that we
are giving value received.
Yours truly,
