One night in July last, in Montgomery
county, Georgia, the safe OF Mr.. G. A. Nose
ly was stolen by a dozen masked men. 1t
contained $4,000 in money, besides a
large number OF valuable papers. Great
excitement followed. The tracks OF the
wagon were traced for twenty miles, where
all trace was lost. Several arrests were
made, but it seemed impossible to locate
the crime. The latest development has
created even more Indignation than the
original crime. John 4. Mcbride aud h!s

his property, Mr. Mosely was compelled 10
assent to the exaction. It seems that the
two men had discovered the whereabouts
of the safe; they removed it TO their home,
buried it, and built a hog pen over It, so as
to effeetually conceal it. The people are
as indignant at the McBrides Us they are at
the masked burglars who stole the safe.

THE PADDOCK MURDER.
Fixing the Crime on the Sioux City
da) Saloon Keepers.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, Nov. I'D. w. Neal of
New Jefferson. Ia, is here ready to appear
as witness in the conspiracy cases. Prose-
cut0r Murphy regards him as an exception
ally honest witness. He relates that about
July 23 ten days before the murder, he was
approached by Jewish saloon keeper
named Adelsheime. who proposed to him
liberal pay II he would take contract TO do
a slick job" Neal is brakeman and was
living here at the time. He had formerly
known Adelsheime at Cedar Rapids. Adel-
sheime first asked him if he wouldn't name
somabody who could do the work. Neal did
not quite grasp the proposition and suggest
ed some Cedar Rapids gamblers, well known
to Adelsheime. The latter said, 'No; /
know those fellows. They are gamblers.
They won't do at ALL What we want done
Il is?@ @ard w0rk-kiiiins' why can't you do
Who do you want killed?" asked Neal.

Neal said he would think Of it.
this afternoon" said Adelsheime, "and ri
see what can be done. You come to my
place at O'Clock tonight, and will let you
know" Neal agreed, and the two men
separated.
Neal went across the street to a colored
barber, named Smith, and repeated his con-
versation with Adelsheime. Smith said,
YOU take my advice and have nothing to do
with this thing When Smith was asked
today II he could verify Meals story, he said
Yes"
Adelsheime denies Neals story as fabri-
cation, but admits having known him in
Cedar Rapids.

MONDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER Is, 1885,

30, 1885 and is S73,605 gallons less than the
average product for the last nine years.
In closing his report Commissioner Miller
reviews the action taken by him Tor the en-
forcement of the Oleomargarine law and
SAYS: st Is impossible at this Time to esti-
mate the amount of internal revenue which
will be derived from 0leOmargarlne. III, how
ever, the operation of the law should prove
unsatisfactory in its present form, which is
construed to levy tax only upon the article
manufactured and sold, or removed for con-
sumption or sale, as suppositious butter, the
law can be so amended as while imposing
the tax upon ole0nargarine, oil neutral and
such like substances, without which suppO-
sitious butter cannot be extensively manu-
facturedD to provide also for the use Of such
substances by subsequent eompounders with
out the payment of second tax, as rectifers
are allowed to compound distilled spirits on
which tax is paid without paving an addi-
tional gallon tax simply by delivering up the
original tax-paid stamps and receiving in
exchange other stamps representing the
same quantity; also for refunding the tax on
so much as Is used for lubricating purposes
or otherwise in the arts and sciences.
In my opinion the advantage in securing
tax from the manufacturer who derives his
material from slaughtered animals can not
be over estimated. These manufacturers
are comparatively few in number. BY re-
quiring them to stamp and brand all their
productions and to keep such books as will
indicate the destination of their products,
such products can be followed to the dealers
and through the dealers to consumers. At
the same time by use of the system of ex-
changing stamps similar to that now in op-
Grafton as to distilled spirits the article may
be readily identified by the consumer with
ont necessitatlng the Imposition Of second
tax -
