The Duluth Custom House.

bHCpcCldi W LLiO piOOC
DULUTH, June 1.-The abolition of the
kDuluth custom house. by Secretary Fair
! child, has raised storm of Indignation
Fhere, and every commercial body in this
city will take action in the matter immedi-
t.ately, and prepare strong protests against
Ethis action of the assistant secretary. One
of the reasons for abolishlng the Duluth
office is, that during the ten months end
ing April 80, the imports at this port fell
off from S11S,00 to SIG. 600,
/ and the exports from 81, SIS, 600
: to 81, 033, 600. This showing is manifest
Eedly unjust, as our customs business during
ENlay and June is the heaviest in the year.
sThe value of exports for May and June of
this year will be about 50, 600, 600 alone and
and it is considered absurd to attach this
| important place to the Marquette district
where they do no import or export business
of any consequence. A delegation of
! prominent citizens will go to Washington
=. and try to induce the secretary to recon
slider his action so that the custom house
may remain here.

Death of Farmer Keyser-Murdered and

VIXCENNEs, ND, February 3.-Thera is
much excitement in Wabash county Hi
uois, twenty miIes west Of here, over the
supposed murder Of Valentine keyser a
prominent farmer. 1t has already been
mentioned in these dispatches that Keyser's
body was found, charred almost beyond
recognition, in the ruins Of his house,
which burned Sunday night, when he was
alone. The fact has been developed that
the house was not 90 much burned when
frs, discovered, but that Keyser could
have escaped, and the theory that he was
murdered and the house burned TO conceal
the crime is generally credited. The Coro
ner has been engaged for fortY'eight hours
taking testimony, and the inquest is not
vet over. All the evidence goes to show
that Kegser was murdered, but not par
ticle of evidence is sdduced as to who the
nurdsrer is.
