intrinsic value is not necessary to a

of standard in 1863, from a 70-cent paper

great cause of the farmers distress in the

indirectly, gold to the United States

EASY ON IMPORTERS.
The Construction of the Customs
Administrative Act.

The Customs Department at this port, as
we'll as the merchants who import goods,
have been in considerable Of stew for the
past few days over many questions which
have come up under the provisions of the
Customs Administrative Act, which will go
into effect on August 1st.
A number of merchants who have goods
on the way here wanted to enter them at
once, so as to avoid paying the extra fees
and expenses of the new system. but in re-
ply to telegram of Collector Phelps. Sec
letary Of the Treasury Window said that
such course is unnecessary. as all goods
in transit prior to August LIST could be en-
tered as of July 31st.
Then another question came up in regard
+ 10 the goods now III the bonded warehouse,
and, acting under the advice of attorneys,
there was big rush Of importers to have
their goods out of the bonded warehouse
before the end of July. Section of the
circular issued a short time ago by the
Treasury Department in explanation of the
new act reads as follows:
1t is the opinion OF the dep artmeut that Sec
tiOn 20 Of the new law permits the retention of
mer chandlse in.bonded warehouse for more than
one year, and not more than three years, from
date OF importation, without The imposition of
the additional duty OF 10 per centum provided
by Section 2970. Revised Statutes, upon It's with.
draWal for consumption.
In order to understand this construction,
Collector Phelps telegraphed: Suppose
the year expired before the 1st of August,
but the merchandise still remained in the
warehouse. would the additional duty of
10 per cent provided by Section 2970 ac-
crne? To which Secretary, Window tele-
graphed back. NO"
Said prominent Custom-house official
yesterday: 'Ths construction of the de-
partment is most liberal to merchants.
Under 1t goods which are really liable to
this duty of 10per cent extra will be freed
from it, and that too after all the merchants
fully expected to pay it. The department
at Washington is evidently bent on con-
STRUNG the customs laws in the light most
favorable to the importer"

AGAIN RULED OUT.
Redding and CowIes' Hunt for the Own
ers of the Hope Ranch.

BEDDING and CowIes' Hunt for the Own
ers of the Hope Ranch.
Again., and for the third time. Judge
Hunt has ruled out the complaint of the
yexed suit of Joseph Redding aud Nor
thrope Cowles against the members of the
firm of Tallant Sc Co., involving the WELL
known and extensive Hope Ranch in Santa
Barbara County.
Redding and Cowles purchased it of John
T. Hope in July, 1884, for S26, 900, and exc
cuted mortgage to Hope as security for
payment. In December following they paid
for one-fourth of the ranch, and then Tai
lantdied. In closing the affairs of Tallant
~ Co. it was never legally settled who
owned that ranch, and ever since Redding
and Cowles have been receiving notices
from the several members of the company
that they claimed the ranch, either entirely
or IN part, and demanped individual settle
ment with them accordingly.
First Marguerite and John Hope sent
such notice, claiming the whole ranch +;
then similar claim came from the Tai
Iant5; then one from Rose and. George
Highly, with A: L. Herlick claiming only a
certain interest. Now Redding and Cowles
are anxious to pay the remaining $4,000 on
the ranch and lift the mortgage, but from
among SO many claimants they cannot tell
whom to pay.
They therefore brought this suit to have
the courts decide who the owners are, but
the court persists in holding that such is
not the proper course. They must figure
as lnterpleaders in a suit between the sew
eral claimants. Their first complaint, like
wise first and second amended complaints,
were ruled out on demurrers, as lot stating
a cause of action.

MARRIED ON THE DEEP.
A Ceremony on a Tug With Some
Mystery Attendant.

About 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon a
young man and woman, accompanied by an
old gentleman with long white beard and
wearing a plug hat, visited the Ship-owners'
and Merchants Towboat Office, at the foot
of Vallejo street, and hired tug to take
them for a trip on the bay. The tug Sea
Queen, Captain Loekyer, who ''smelt ia
MICE" thought that he would have chance
to perform the marriage ceremony, receive
a good fee and kiss the bride. But ne was
doomed to disappointment.
the party who had hired the tug stayed
in tue tug-b0at office until l 80 o'clock with
evident impatlence, when a tall elderly man
with an irop-gray mustache, and wearing
a long chinchilia coat and soft SLOUGH hat,
arrived on the dock He joined the party.
which at once embarked on the tug and
steamed out to sea. Captain LOckyer was
informed that the young couple mentioned
were about to be married, and as soon as
the tug was outside the whistling buoy, the
three-mile limit, Lockyer slowed down ana
the couple was united in marriage by the
'old gent in the chinchiHa coat"
The tug returned TO her berth at . o'clock
and was met by reporter. The first per-
son to come ashore was the man who per-
formed the marriage ceremony. He re-
the names of the people whom he married,
and then hurried uptown. The next per
son to land was the old gentleman with the
plug hat and white beard. He told the re-
porter that he, too, did not know the names
of the contracting parties. He said he was
resident of this city, but refused TO give
his name, and went rapidly along East
street to Market. The reporter next ap-
preached the bride and bridegroom. They
were evidently Italians. The bride could
not speak English and the bridegroom re-
fused to give names or impart any informa-
ton whatever. -
1t was afterward learned that the rela--
tionship of the people who were married
was uncle and niece, and it was stated by
those on the tug that the man who per-
formed the marriage ceremony represented
himself to be the pastor Of the Presbyterian
Church at the corner of Geary and Powell.
This he certainly is not as the Rev. /.
Chalmers Easton is pastor there and he is
known to all reporters. 1t is not improb-
able that the man, whoever he is, masquer-
AIDED as parson to earn a fat fee.
