PARIS. October 1.-THE agitation over
the new United States tariff lawwa great
er than ever during the last week The
widest ideas as 10 the scope and effect of the
law were prevalent. Lyons virulently re-
monstrated against heavily increased duties
on silks Bordeaux was equally excited
about wine, and the whole OF France was
in a condition of extreme irritation. which
was reflected by the newspapers. NJ.
Lockroy treats the idea of a European
soelver against America rs utopian.
He holds that France, unassisted
by other countries, can open the
gates of the. American Chinese wall by
profting by the word "reciprocity,n which
figures in the new law and urges approval
of the foreign Offices negotiations on the
subject. He is supposed TO refer to an al
legged understanding between NJ. Ribot,
Whitelaw Reid, the L. ;. Minister, regard
ing certain concessions which France
will make, provided America does not in
crease the taxes on certain French pro-
ducts, notably wines. The details Of this
understanding. If such exists. have not yet
been made public, but the French news
papers positively announce that il does
exist.
The Mol L'Ordre thinks that America
should receive French goods little better,
and Orleanist pretenders who seek TO over
turn the French Republic little less
pompously. France it says. considers the
American Orleanist manifestations ridicu-
lous.

uted to Secretary Blaine, disavowing any

GOV. CAMPBELL HAS PROOF
OF the Croo<edness of the Board of Pub
lie Improvements.

FINDLAY, O., October ll.-Regarding the
character of proof Governor Campbell has
in his possession that the Board Of Public
Improvement Of Cincinnati is corrupt and
that he was justified in charging them with
dishonesty, a prominent State official,
whose home is in this city, said to-day that
the Governor has in his possession not less
than seventy-ive receipts for money paid
members of the Board of Public Improve
ment for positions within their gift. These
receipts are in the handwriting OF the
members charged with being dishonest,
and will be submitted by the Governor
with his message to the General Assembly
on Tuesday.
The gentleman who gave this intorma-
tion did so without knowing it would reach
the public IL was brought out in the
course of an argument TO prove that Camp
bell was justified in taking the heroic course
he did: that these receipts for money paid
members for places under the Board formed
the basis of the Governors demand for
Reemlius resignation This the gentle
man acknowledged 10 be true, and added
that there was proof sufficient for every
member of the Legislature to Join the Gov
ernor in his efforts to rid Cincinnati of a
gaag of thieves.

IMPORTANT TARIFF DECISION
Concerning Bonded Goods Warehoused
Under Previous Laws

WASHINGTON, October lin his opinion
rendered Yesterday, the Secretary of the
Treasury, concerning the withdrawal from
bond free of duty of goods warehoused un-
der previous laws and made free by the
new law, Solicitor Hepburn says: in the
letter of Assistant Secretary Spaulding of
the 7th inst, is the following question:
which is submitted to me for answer
Can merchandise be dutiable under the
tariff acts, in force prior TO the 9th inst,
which had been entered for warehouse with
out payment of dutyprior to the 9th inst.
the date when said law Of October took
effect, but for which no permit of delivery
was issued to the importer, or his agent,
and which is specified in the free list of the
last named act but now withdrawn for con-
sumption without payment.
The answer 10 this query is found in sec
ti0n Of the act approved October |, 1890
The Solicitor, after quoting the section,
continues: 'In this section there are three
classes Of merchandise provided for:
-. Merchandise imported previous to
the 9Th day of October, for which no entry
has been made.
-. Merchandise entered previous to the
9th day of October without payment of
duty, that is, under bond for warchousing,
transportation. or any other purpose for
which no permit Of delivery to the importer
or his agent has been issued.
80 Imported merchandise deposited in
bond in public or private bonded ware
house, having been 50 deposited prior TO the
lst day of Octorber, 1890.
The inquiry Of Assistant Secretary
Spauding extends only to the second class.
The merchandise he refers to in his query
is that, in the language of the law, which
has been previously entered without pay
ment of duty and under bond for ware
housing, for which no permit or delivery to
the importer or his agent has been issued.
The law says that that class of merchan-
disc shall be subjected 10 no other duty
upon the withdrawal thereof than if the
same was imported after the 9th day of
October, 1890 Now, If by the law in force
on the 9th day of October, or later, that
particular merchandise is found to be on
the free list, then | answer that such mer-
chandise may be withdrawn for cousump
tion without payment of duty. | can find
nothing in Section 30 or any part OF the act

BELMONT OIL FIELD.
Operations Progressing Smoothly-Han-
non Brothers Important Venture.

Special telegram 10 the Sunday Register.
BELMONT, w. VA, October 11.-Oil oper-
ations at this place have been very flour
ishisg the past week Several wells are
drilling, but few have got the sand. No.
10. on the Upper Brothers Island, was
given dose of glycerine Thursday, and is
now doing 40 barrels. Nos. 6 and II. ON
the same lease, were shot Friday, and are
doing l25 and 100 barrels respectively.
Several new companies are being formed
TO operate on Middle Island, near St.
Mary's.
Drilling is being resumed on the Mckim
farm by Harmon Brothers. This well is
situated eight miles back of st. Mary's.
and is looked upon with great eagerness,
as there is an immense amount OF
undeveloped territory in that section. 1t
is thought it will be made mystery.
But Harmon Brothers say not, and that
when drilled in, if not as good rs expected,
she will be shot.
The Crockery City Company, of Fast
Liverpool, Ohio, who are operating on
Henry Camps place, about two miles from
Belmont, are progressing hnely. The citi-
zens of Belmont are trying to get the cor
poration lines spread around here. Mem
hers for Council and Mayor are already
being talked of 1t is to be hoped that this
is more than mere talk, and that the people
will push it with all their power.
The drilling in of the Cassel Oil Com
pany's No. > WELL on the Brown farm
across the river, yesterday, and which was
found to be no good, has caused great
deal of disappointment, as the result
reached condemns great deal of property
that was supposed to be valuable.
The Acre-and-a-half's No is down 90C
feet, and will begin casing about Wednes-
day.
The 1l-acre well is reported to be making
40 barrels per day, and the 2l acres 40 bar
rels. This would seem TO be pretty good
thing. but two or three hundred is better.

farm in the narrows below town in two

pose of enabling the company 10 build lines
to connect the coast with inland markets in
the distressed districts of Ireland. The
Telegraph says that fifty miles Of line will
be constructed from Galway 10 Clifton,
tweuty-six miles from Westport TO Mul-
vany. and a short line from Ballina 10
KilIala. The help afforded TO the poor
tenants by this opportunity to procure
work will prove opportune, as il will en-
able them to earn money with which TO
tide over the worst winter months, and 10
purchase potato seed in the spring. The
fisheries along the extent Of the Irish lit
toral will be developed by the facilities
afforded by the railroad company TO trans
