Special A gent TingIe's Report.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Supervising Special
Agent Tingle in his annual report says /:
"While in attendance on the conference of
consuls general of the United States in
Europe, called to consider the practical work
ings of the customs law, was strongly inn
pressed with the wisdom and necessity for a
stringent enforcement of that act. Had
further proof been needed it would have
been found in publications in the European
press admitting that invoices were
Systematically and intentiontionally un-
deryalued and deporing the fact
that under the new provisions of
the law these evasons could no longer be
safely continued. 1t has also been brought
prominently to my notice that while citizens
of these countries were enjoying large profits
on their deceptive and Illicit importatons
into the United States, American products
were unreasonably and invidiously pro-
scribed and made to feel the rigor of their
commercial lawsn Tingle expresses the
opinion that more than half the prepared
opium consumed in this country during the
past SIX years has been smuggled. 1t is be-
leved, he says, that an internal revenue tax
of not more than s. per pound on prepared
article (crude opium to be admitted free) and
a corresponding duty upon smoking opium
imported would practically put an end to
smuggling.

RALRoAD orFmtlIs INDICTED.

The federal grand jury at Chicago,
which is investigating the alleged man
ipulation Of freight rates by western
roads and shippers in violation Of the
interstate commerce law, has presented
indictments against three railroad OIL
cials. These officials are the president
and general manager of the Chicago, St.
Paul & Kansas City road, the general
freight agent OF the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy, and the general freight
agent of the Chicago, Rock Island Il Pa
citic. The nature of the evidence upon
which these indictments we're found is not
stated, and probably will not be known
to the public until the cases go into
court, but it is doubtless ample. The at
torneys of the interstate commerce
commission appear to have proceeded
with great care and the jury has un-
doubtedly been equally circumspect in
examining the evidence. 1t is therefore
to be presumed that in returning the in
dictments there is full confidence that
they can be sustained. Others, it is ex-
pected, will follow.
This action can hardly fail to produce
something of sensation in railroad cir
cles, particularly of the west. Tho COM
mon belief is that officials of every west
ern road have violated the interstate
commerce law by manipulating rates,
and now that the commission has shown
its first earnest purpose to enforce the
law, it is to be expected that it will go
to the very bottom with it's investiga-
tion in which case it is reasonably cer-
tain that it will have an extended
list OF indictments. 1t is UNDER
stood that after tho investiga-
tion of freight-rate manipulation is COM
pleted attention will be given to the
passenger departments of the roads,
with view to placing the responsible
ity for the cut-rate tickets that have
recently been disturbing the market
While it is probable that the violations
of the law in manipulating passenger
rates have not been SO common or seri-
Gus rs in the freight business, they
should suffer the penalties provided for
each violation of the law. These are a
hcoNS hHo VT lilpIloOuuucub, UT IL lluo
and imprisonment.
The judicial proceedings thus in
stituted will lead to decisions re-
garding the constitutionality OF cer-
tain features of the interstate com
merce law, if not Of the law
as whole. Already the constitutional
issue has been raised by the refusal of
two persons, one railroad official and
the other shipper, to answer questions
propounded in the investigation by the
grand jury on the ground that to do so
would be to criminate themselves, and
if the decision Of the circuit court goes
against them the cases will go to the
supreme court. Doubtless other cousti-
tutiOnal issues will arise in the progress
of the trials under the indictments.
Meantime the public will regard with
unmiXed satisfaction the evident deter
mination of the commission to enforce
the law, the violation of which with alb
solute impunity has been too long per-
tDitted
Omaha daily bee., 1890-12-06
THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, SATURDAY DECEMBER g. 1890

the objection to creating n permanent
national debt is SO strong that the inter-
convertible bond plan would ha rdly meet
general public approval.
The secretary of the treasury con-
ours in the recommendations of the
comptroller of the currency that the OBJ
ligatory deposit of bonds by national
banks bo reduced and that circulation
be issued equal in amount to the par
value OF the bonds pledged, and it is safe
TO infer that no believes such a change
in the national banking law would re-
suit in at least partially remedying the
defect of lack OF elasticity in the
monetary system. But in any event it
is apparent that this is a matter of such
vital Importance as to deserve the care
full and early attention of congress. AS
the secretary says, the demand for
money IN this country is SO irregular
that an amount of circulation
which will be ample during ten
months Of the year will fre-
quently prove so deficient during
the other two months us TO cause strin
gency and commercial disaster. This
may happen without speculation and
simply as the result OF the immense de-
mand for money during the active
period of moving the crops to market.
But stringency may occur ut any time
and whatever the causes it's severity
will be felt according to the degree Of
inelasticity in the financial system. I'M
usual importance attaches to this mat
ter now for the reason that for several
years at least the national treasury is
not likely to be able to give such assist
ance to the money market as it did dur,
ing the severe pressure in September
and more recently, without which assist
ance the country would undoubtedly
have experienced disastrous financial
crisis. The necessity for an elastic cur
rency IN commercial country like the
United States is we'll understood by all
practical business men, and if we would
avoid disastrous monetary disturbances
from time to time provision must be
made for a financial system that will ad-
just itself readily to the irregular de-
mands upon it.

AN OMAHA POSTAL DECISION

Congressman Connell is doing ener-
getic work for Omaha and the west.
The Washington dispatches state that
he has prepared an argument in favor of
a new postal division, with headquarters
at Omaha, and that he will made an
effort to have bill passed to this effect
before the end of the present session.
This change in the postal department
would be very beneficial to the service
in general and Omaha in particular, and
can be fairly said to be demanded by the
enormous growth of this section and the
business it gives the government. Ne
braska is now part of the Chicago di-
vision, which includes also the states of
Illinois, Iowa, Idaho and parts of Ore
gon, Kansas, Colorado and South Da-
llota. Mr.. Connell's plan is to establish
an Omaha division to cover Nebraska,
Wyoming, Idaho and, possibly. some
other territory. The plan is not
new one, but it would seem that there
is no longer any good reason for delay
ing it. Such division must be made
sooner or later, and the revelations of
growing railroad facilities at this point,
ought to be sufficient to name Omaha as
the proper headquarters 1t is stated
that the business already transacted by
the chief clerk in the Omaha Office is
larger than that done at some of the di-
visions in the west and southwest.
The present is also good time to ask
that the headquarters of the postal in
spectors be re-established at Omaha,
from which it was first removed to Dem
yer and afterward to st. Louis. If Con-
gresham Connell can get these benefi-
cial changes through congress be-
fore he retires he will do most
excellent work for his city and
state and for the postal service in gem
eral. If the changes are not made at
this time, when all branches of the gov
ernment are in harmony, it will be diff
cult to predicrwhen they can be accom-
plished hereafter.
