Graham showed the witness a big bundle of money. and said he wanted a man on the Cronin jury for the defence.

Subsequently Graham told the witness not to use this list and gave him new one to give to Solomon.

CONNER asl Uoiou with Canada

In consideration of the undcniahle
fact that the I uited States and Canada
are fast tending towards a closer politi-
cal union, an interesting and spirited ar
ticlc in the July number of the New
Highlander and Yale Review will again
call public attention to the somewhat
complicated problem involved by its title.
The writer, Hon l.. Munsou of New
Haven, Conn isa rrotSctionist He be
llevcs la "a Tariff that will foster and
protect against foreign competition.
But he adds. "0ur commercial relations
with Canada should be reciprocal as far
as they can be under an abolition of our
present customs duties; :" or, as he says
elsewhere. "thc extinction for CONNER
clai purposes Of the political line which
runs nearly 1000 miles from tine Atlantic
to the Pacific Ocean, and bounds ths
United States on the north and Canada
Oh the south.
The authors scheme Is developed in
the following extract: with the Tariff
line removed from the southern to the
northern boundary of Canada, and en-
forced with the same rigor that Is now
enforced between Canada aud Englard.
the United States have nothing TO fear
from foreign importations free of duty
through Canada.
This Is precisely the question at issue.
aud il may well be sleahted IL the re
moval of our Tariff barriers between
United States and Canada would not
open the way to wholesale violations
Of the Tariff law 10 an extent
which would, practically nullify the
law. ltis well known that even now
our northern boundary is only imper-
fcctly defended against smuggling. Ii
may readily be conceived that IL this
boundary were removed and the barriers
transferred 10 the eastern aud western
Canadian trvatiers, With thousands OF
miles &c coast lime sesrsely populated
and def nded oniv by Canadian officials
there would ensae almost unlimited I'M
