tariff "may punish for awhile Well,
yes, We should say SO, when il is re-
membered how merchants are marking
up their goods on every hand, and ad-
vertislug the fact to the world in the
daily papers. Mr.. Mckinley was told by
Democrats q thousand times that such
would be the result of bis tariff bill, but
he on the contrary commended that the
effect of it would be to reduce prices,
and, besides, does not the foreigner who
sells us goods pay the duty? Never
would he admit before the passage of the
bill that prices would go klting, as they
are doing in consequence OF it. Not

In the case of the Mckinley tariff, it will

THE FALL OF GEN. BELKNAP.


The death of Gen. Belknap will recall
once more the stirring times of Presiden!
Grant IS administration, when frauds on
the internal revenue were rampant, and
when their exposure raised such howl
of public indignation throughout the
land. Those were the halcyon days of
the whisky ring, when the internal reve-
nue. laws were less rigid than now, and
when official corruption and venality ran
riot in that department. The excessive
whisky tax of So gallon stimulated
to Systematic collision between many
dIstillers, and government agents, store.
keepers and gaugers, to say nothing of
higher officials, the government was de-
frauded out Of millions, and whisky was
sold in the leading markets Of the couu-
try for less than the tax on it. This was
especially true at st. Louis, Cincinnati,
New York and New Orleans. In the
latter city, the carpet baggers, Pinch
back, Warmoth ana Kellogg, especially
the latter, made the most of their oppor-
tunities, and Kellogg was said to have
reaped rich harvest by winking at the
expectation Of large invoices of whisky
on which no tax had been paid.
The operations of Joyce and Nc
Donald, revenue collector and super
visor at st. Louis and Peoria district
became fragrant and notorious and ex-
cited profound indignation throughout
the Union when it was learned that dur
ing the whole course OF their swindling
operations they were in close and conf
dental communion with members of the
president cabinet and with his private
secretary, Babcock.
Charges were preferred against Gen.
Belknap, secretary of war, and a move
was on foot in congress to impeaoh him,
when suddenly and unexpectedly he re-
signed bis place in the cabinet. His
resignation, which the president promptly
accepted, savd him, and ne went out of
office under q cloud, aud has never made
q ngure IN national politics since. He
was en- able official and a man of con-
siderable ability, but not proof on the
moral side against the carnival of cor
ruption and peculation that reigned all
around him.
The whisky frauds were general and so
fragrant that they could not have con-
tinued as long as they did but for the
protection extended them in high places,
a protection. that was of course well paid
for. Subsequent Investigation disclosed
enormity Of the steals and the
fact that they had been eounived a:
by government officials of high char
acter. among whom public opinion
singled out Gems. Babcock aud BeIknap.
The latter escaped punishment by re-

SCARCITY OF WHEAT.
The High Price Laid at the Door Of the McKin-
ley Tariff Bill.


Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1s.-The owners OF huge
warehouses along Brooklyn's water front are
complaining about the scarcity of grain just
now. They have an aggregate capacity for the
storage OF Il co. 600 bushels of grain, but at the
presen. time there are not more than 5000. 900
bushels in all the warehouses pct toge, her
Usually the beginning of November sees the big
elevators OVERLOOKING with grain, but both of
those at Erie basin are now idle, and of the
seven at the Atlantic dock only two are
in use. There Is one st Columbia stores and
one at Woodruff stores, but there is not work
enough to keep men busy at them all the time.
The nigh price OF grain in the West, caused by
the fact that spectators hold an enormous
quantity, is said by the warehousemen to be the
reason for the present lack OF supply here.
There is practically no export demand now, ac-
cording to J. W. Whiting, the superintendent
of the Erie Basin stores. Foreign crops, he
said yesterday, have been very heavy, and the
high price OF grain in Chicago makes II impos-
sible TO ship it here and sell at profit. The
cause of this high price he laid to the Mckinley
bill, which increases the duty from twenty to
twenty five cents a bushel. Spectators, bought
in expectation Of this legislation and are now
holding on for profit. In the meantime over
1900 workmen are idle along the Brooklyn water
front.
