The Recent Seizure OF Patent Medicines

MONTREAL, Jan. 2.

Some months since, Deputy Collector
OHara of the Customs seized over 100000
worth of imported patent medicine, from Aver
& Co. of Lowell, Mass, on a charge that it
was entered far below its proper value. The
information on which the seizure made
was supplied by former employees of the com
pany. who alleged tina: the practice had been
carried on for l5 years. searching investi-
CATION has been in progress, not only at var
ious ports in the Dominion, hut also in the
United States, the evidence being taken nm
der oath and submitted to the minister of Gus
toms for judgment The company was re-
presented before the department at Ottawa
by Mr. MacMaster, Q. C, an eminent lawyer
and member of Parliament, who submitted
evidence for the defence which was to the
effect that the imported medicine had not all
the component parts and most costly ingre-
dients mixed in it when delivered here, the
latter being put in on this side of the border.
Minister Bowel has given his decision at
last, calling upon Aver & Co. to pay the de-
partment Sl47 900, which includes extra duty
and so per cent. fine on the duty under paid.
The government could only extend its inquir-
les for three years past under the tariff act.
The medicine has remained in the custody
of the agents under bonded warehouse re-
ceipt until a week ago, when it was removed
to the Queens warehouses, where it will be
disposed OF by auction if the claim is not i'm
mediately met.
This was the most extensive seizure ever
made in the Dominion. There are several
other extensive seizures that decisions are
shortly expected on, in which American
firms, East and West, are interested in. The
government has royal commission sitting
here making an exhaustive investigation.

CHICAGO DENS.
Efforts Being Made to Rid the City of
Disiuputable Houses and Low Saloons.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.
The grand jury presented a lengthy report
this afternoon, which is of especial importance
and interest in view of the efforts which are
being made BY a number of prominent prop
erty holders to rid certain portions of the
city of the numerous disreputable houses and
low saloons which infest them The report
says that the closing of saloons at midnight
has, by long custom, become a dead letter in
the community, and a partiality seems to ex-
ist in favor of the doggeries of the very lowest
upon the sworn testimony of policemen as
'robbers dens." Dives of the lowest order
defy the city's ordinances by keeping open
from dawn till midnight and midnight until
dawn, In them congregate disreputable
women, thieves and criminals, and policemen
have been seen in full uniform tippling with
disreputables in these same doggeries. The
report states that the captains and lieutenants
of the lst district were called before the
grand jury to explain this state Of affairs. and
that chief Ebersod acknowledged that the
abuses existed. but said there WAS no remedy
so long as the force wes hampered by politl-
cal influence. The report next called atten-
ton to the brutality of policemen in the treat
ment of persons under arrest, and cited the
case Of the Chinaman who was found dead re-
Gently in a cell at the armorv. IL concluded

meut against the city administration and po-
lice department. for permitting such abuses

DETECTIVE TROUBLE.
Robert A. Davis Of Portland, Charged
With the Unlawful Arrest of Three
Persons.
Special to the Kennebtc Journal. !

Special to the kennebtc Journal.
SKowHEGAS, Jan. 3.
Bobert A. Davis of Portland, is at prese Mt
in very unpleasant situation. 1t happened
thus When the law creating State detec-
tives was first passed, at the last session Of
the legislature, Mr.. Davis received an ap-
pointment as detective. Up to the present
time, however, he has never filed any bond
or paid his fee. Therefore he had no more
right to make an arrest than if he had never
been appointed. In spite of this, however,
he has been wearing his badge, making ar
rests, and assuming all the duties and re-
sponsbilities of State detective.
Aboutthe 25th of September Lewis Kersch-
ner, Of Kingfeld. missed $3.50, supposed to
be stolen. Mr. Davis was called upon and
undertook to recover the money. He went
to kingheld and arrested a man on suspicion
of having committed the theft. The man, it
is alleged, acknowledged the theft and told
Davis the money was secreted near The
Forks of the Kennebec. Davis arrested the
man, took him in a team and conveyed him
to the place where the money was supposed
to be concealed. When near this place the
prisoner told Davis that he had been lying,
and to ask the Gordon family of Starks,
what they knew of the money. Davis then
threw Whitcombe into Jail and went to
Starks where, without a warrant, he arrested
Miss Ola Gordon, her father and brother.
Miss Gordon is an invalid, whom it is not
considered safe to leave alone, she being
subject to fits, but Davis kept her locked in a
cell for two days, not allowing any of her
relatives to go near her. He became con-
vinced that he could learn nothing from
them, however, and finally liberated them.
Friday last Detective Soule, of Gardiner,
to Portland, arrested Mr.. Davis and brought
him here. where was placed on trial, and
bound over in the sum of $500 to appear at
the March term of court. The extent of the
law for the crime with which Davis held is
Imprisonment for five years and a fine of
$1,000 Mr.. Davis will probably have some
difficulty in extricating himself from the un-
pleasant dilemma in which he is placed.

Private Watchmsn Mclaughlin. who was
asleep in the attic when the fire broke out,
barely escaped with his life. In the mean
time the fire department had arrived, but,
owing 10 the fact that the woodwork inside
was of oiled pine, the flames had gained such
hesdway that the chief sent out = second and
a third alarm, which brought all the engines
in the city to the scene; but they were OF
little service after they got there, as no sup
ply of water could be obtained, although the
asvlum is located within a quarter ot mile
OF the high service reservoir. The flames
spread rapidly TO the third floor and along the
entire length of the wing in both directions,
distance of 600 feet. At the west end II was
stopped by blank wall 22 inches thick which
prevented its spread to the centre and other
wings of the Institution. The total loss will
probably amount to S75. 5000, which is fully
covered by insurance. The cause of the fire
is unknown, but it is supposed to have origi-

finding of the Coroner's Jury-No
Arrests Made.
PORTLAND, Jan. 3.

A special to the Argus says the town of
Scion is bitterly excited over a case of abor-
ton which resulted in the death of young
girl. The coroner's inquest, after a session
of four days, brought in a verdict Saturday
night as follows: 1--WE find that Flora
B. Bean came from Skowhegan to Solon
Dec. 10. and went to the hotel, After in
quiring for DR.. j. Moore. an slleg physi-
clan of Solon, she started, and was last seen
going in the direction of his house. She re-
manned IN bis house from that time until the
lead body vas removed therefrom Dec. So
She died Dec. 2S, IL A. NJ. The immediate
cause of her death was childbed fever, caus-
ed by an operation made for the purpose of
procuring an abortion, while at the house of
died" DR.. Moore denied that the girl reach
ed there before Dec. "a, and says no opera
ton was performed on her in his house. She
had bad cold and fever and he treated her
for these troubles. There are certain links
in the case which are wanting, so DR.. Moore
will not be arrested for the present. but it is
expe cted that the case will be taken before
the grand jury in March. County Attorney
Bradbury attended the inquest and assured
the excited people that every effort should be
used to punish the guilty parties. The vic
tim was very handsome girl, Is years old,
and lived at Pleasant Ridge.

With His Employers.
New YORK. Jan.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.
Several years prior to September last,
Frederick Fischel, German, 32 years, has
been confidential clerk of August Bernheim
& Bauer, clothing merchants. Sept. 18th
was Jewish new year, and a member of the
firm handed Fischel a check of $3.50 as a
gift, at the same time requesting him to bal
ance the books and hand the balance sheet to
the head of the firm. Fischel took the gift
and fled, leaving letter confessing that he
had forged checks and robbed the firm His
employees were amazed and by the oid of ex-
perts found he had robbed them of $4,000
The clerk fed to Canada where he was found
at town named Gravenburst, Ont. Friday
last he came back without a requisition He
arrived here Saturday and is now locked up.
The downfall began with a woman and was
accelerated by gambling at faro and race
track ventures, until the discovery was upon
him, when he fled. The firm is proceeding
against some of the gambling houses in
which Fischel lost much of the money he
stole from his employers.

The fourth fire within the last few days oc-
Cured at Pennington Friday night. The
alarm rang out about six O'Clock, calling the

was soon subdued. The fire was discovered
by A. w. Pottle on the hay mows on the
second floor, and Mr.. Pottle states that when
he discovered it, it looked as if the hay had
been thrown together in pile of conical
shape and fired. The origin of all these four

believe them to have been the work of an

taken in the absence of the proprietors for
