coNsULs AID IMPORTERS.
They Reduce Tariffs and Defraud tho
Governments Of 81 200, 900.

WAsHIyGTos CRY, Dec. 27.-Frauds by
which the government has been robbed of
over $500, 900 within the past twelve
months have been brought to the knowl-
edge of the treasury officials, and search
ing inquiry is in progress. The frauds
were committed by consuls and consular
agents of the United States in Canada, and
by exporters of Canadian goods TO the
United States. Some twenty eonsuIs sta
toned in the province Of Ontario are i'm
plicated IN the charges.
The fraud consisted in the appropriation
of illegal fees and under valuation of ex-
ports IN consular Ger ifeates in banks
signed by consuls and consular agents is
sued for nominal sums for exports. and
making false returns Of the value n goods
sent 10 the United States. The evidence
Is not complete as 10 the per cent. allowed
by exporters for the privilege of under
value. but enough is known TO show that a
systematic scheme OF petty swindling has
been carried on. Certificates have been
distributed in great numbers, and il is es-
timated that 81 ooo, 600 is the aggregate loss
10 the government. Further investigation
may show the loss TO be many times that
sum, and that there are even more guilty
parties than have been yet discovered

DEsTITUTION IN PORTLAND.
Discharged Railroad Laborers Clamor

PORTLAND, Dec. 27.-The situation of the
discharged laborers from the Union PACING
Puget sound extension is growing serious
At present there are about 1900 in this
city, and the number is increasing hourly.
Most of them are destitute, aud are unable
70 get money ON time checks due Deem

lodged by the city. Owing to the inability
of ]. II. Smith & Co, who had the contract,
TO secure the money from the Union Pa
cihc, the men are being put off from day
to day, and as the money Is not vet forth
coming it is difficult 20 foresee the outcome,
as the men are growing desperate. Some
of the sorely pressed are discoanting their
time checks at 80 per cent.
j. III. Smith is now az Omaha endeayor-
inb TO secure money from the Union Pa
cine company. Upon his arrival there he
telegraphed that the company had prom
ised him 500 900 this week, and on this
assurance the men have been quoted. To-
day Mr.. Smith telegraphs:

CANADIAN CATTLE ARE DISEASED.
Imports 70 Vermont tn Be Entered and
Examined at sc. AIbans.

WAsHIsGTos CITY. Dec. 25.-Thc secre-
tary of agriculture today made an order TO
close all the ports, except st. Adams, In
the collection district Of Vermont, against
the importation of cattle, sheep and swine,
and requiring that all such animals inn
ported through this district must enter at
the port Of st. Adams, where they must
be inspected by the veterinary inspector of
the department of agriculture This is
done as protection against the infroduc-
ton into this country from Canada of any
contagious disease affecting these classes
of animals.
Such inspection was provided for by the
act OF August 50, 1850. and in view Of the
fact the English veterinary authorities at
Dundee recently seized Canadian cattle,
declaring them affected with contagious
pleuro-pneumoDia, Secretary Rusk feels il
incumbent on him to take all the measures
necessary for IT'S rigid enforcement More
over. England has prohibited the importa-
ton into that country of sheep from the
United States on the ground that the gov
eminent has not heretofore caused TO be
made an inspection or quarantine of
sheep arriving here from other ports of the
world.
The stringent regulations of Secretary
Eusk are designed TO insure protection of
the live stock of the United States from
imported diseases, and 10 secure. If pos
sible, . removal of the prohibitory resfric-
tons now placed on animals exported
from this country.

The America Economic Association.

WASHINGTON CITY. Dec. 27.-At today's
session Of the American Economic A.soci-
alton number OF papers were read, and
the report of Secretary Ely discussed. II
represented the association to be in a pros
porous condition, the number of members
and subscribers on the list being 635.
Three national associations on the other
side Of the world, the report said, had re-
ceived the impulse which gave them exist
cnce from the American Economic Asso-
cation. The report suggested the wisdom
of continuing the policy of offering prizes
for essays, the object being 10 awaken
public interestin economic topics and lead

port Expected on the Resolution.
WASHINGTON CfTY, Dec. 27.-The final
conclusion of the Dockery resolution pro-
viding for an investigation of the charges
that representatives and senator's were in
tcrested in the silver pool, will probably be
reached by the rules committee soon after
the holidays are over. The committee,
when the subject was last considered, dis
cussed the adyisability of summCning a
few witnesses 10 be Intercepted under
oath before deciding further TO report to
the House on the resolution.
1t was thought that If regularly subpe-
naed, the correspondents OF the st. Louis
Globe Democrat, in which the charge of a
legislative silver pool was originally made,
would be willing 10 make some more tan
gible statements than they had published
or had been willing TO volunteer before the
committee. The speaker is favorable to
this course, as he has doubts as TO the pro-
priety of investigating charges that do not
make SPECIFIC, dennite allegations with
somesome of circumstantial detail, and
thought that the rules committee should
have more Of basis than a simple news
paper publication upon which to order an
investigation.
A decision TO report Dockery's resolution
10 the House with a favorable recommen-
dation had been almost reached, when the
shipping bill and other matters came up
and delayed the final determination of
what to do with the resolution.

BRAZIL ACCUSED OF FRAUD.
Charged With Encouraging Dishonest
Immigration Agents.

WARsAw, Dec. 1.-THE Courier published
the test OF what purports to be a secret
Brazilian decree for the encouragement of
immigration. The decree appears to have
been issued June -. and bears the sigma
ture of President da Fonseca and senior
Glyeeria- 1t contains forty-nine articles,
and promises Immigration agents 100 francs
for every adult they sena to Brazil, and 90
francs for every child landed. An addi-
tionai premium of 10000 francs is offered
TO the company landing 10000 immigrants
IN one year, and in addition the immi-
grants are promised substantial advan-
tages, contingent upon signing a declara-
ton as to the handicraft they intend TO
practice.
The Courier complains that einigrants
sailing for Brazil from German ports are
never asked to sign any declaration, and
says that therefore when they reach Bra
ri they are in the position of outlaws, and
having no rights are forced to enter into
contracts which practically convert them
into slaves. The Courier denounces the
system as fraud. and accuses the Brazil
Ian government Of conniyancc.
