MUST BE SOLD FROM THE BOZ
To Dispose of Cigars in ANY Other Way
u Violation of Law.

To Dispose of Cigars in Amy Other Way Is
Violation of Law.
The long established custom of selling
cigars from show cases and serving
them upon tray or in Il glass to custo-
mers in any public resort has now come
to be a violation of the internal revenue
law, and all dealers in cigars who retail
their wares in the manner above
described are liable to a fine. This fact
Is not generally known, but section
3, 393 of the revised statutes of the laws
of the United States clearly establishes
il. The statute requires that all cigars
shall be packed in new boxes containing
definite and limited numbers, and posi-
lively prohibits their sale in any other
form except by retail dealers. Retail
dealers are allowed to retail cigars from
boxes packed, stamped and branded in
the manner prescribed by law; but this
provision does not authorize or warrant
the practice of retailing cigars from
show cases. Sales can legally be made
only from the stamped package, the
presence of the revenue stamp being al
ways necessary to give currency to the
goods. 1t has been the custom in nearly
all resorts, especially those where tables
and walters are provided, to serve cigars
when called for either upon a tray, in a
glass, or some other receptacle, the
article being secured by tie waiter os-
tensibly from the original box. But by
the statute above quoted this is now a
violation, inasmuch as it becomes i'm
peritive upon a dealer to serve his Gus
toners direct from the original box, so
that the stamp may be seen by the pur-
chaser. The same is true in regard to
show cases. The dealer must, accord
ing to this statute, pass out the box for
the purchaser to select his cigars.

HIS LIFE CRUSHED OUT.
Fatal Accident at the New Colorado Con
centrator in Butte.

Fatal Accident ut the New Colorado Con-
centrator in Butte.
BUTTE, Dec. 4.-[Special james Hudson
carpenter at the now Colorado concen-
TRAITOR, met death in an accident this after
noon, which, according to the statement of
the men at work with him. was the result of
his own carelessness. Hudson was one of
the gang engaged in constructing the tram
way which ccnneots the concentrator with
the smelter, and was standing on plank
laid loosely across the tops of the lower two
bents. Seven or eight bents had been
raised, but wore not yet secured. The de-
ceased was in charge of the rope. At about
two O'clock it became necessary to loosen
the rope in order to raise another bent,
lenving the row of bents already standing
without Other support than their own
weight The row of bents toppled over and
fell toward the bottom of the hill, at the
end of which Hudson was. Hudson was
carried along with the falling timbers and
was caught between the crosspicces of the
two lower bents and when they struck the
ground he was lying on top OF one with the
other resting across his body. He lived
only two hours after the accident.

HARRISON DOESN'T LIKE 1T.

BIalne's Popularity Makes Him Mad-NO
Understanding Between Them.
WASHINGTON, Dec President Harrison
is quoted as saying to-day to a friend, who
plumply asked him whether Brother-in law
Scott spoke by the card when he said on
his return to his western home from bring
ing Father-in-law Scott to the White house
that there was an understanding between
Blaine and Harrison, that Scott spoke
without knowledge.
The president added that far from hav-
ing any understanding with Blaine he
had never had a word from Biai,e on the
subject Of the presidency no. eli Il an in
timation, direct or indirect.
The president spoke With some feeling
about it, and his friends nnderst ood the
feeling to be one of mingled disappoint-
ment and resentment towards Blaine. The
president said he had been told by others,
and especially by other members of the
cabinet. that his principal assistant in the
administration of the government. not be-
ing mindful of what he, the president. re-
garded as the proprieties of his position,
was practically candidate for the party
nomination to the presidency against his
chief, but Blaine had not honored him
with any condolences upon the subject. He
spoke as though he thought Blaine ought to
have done SO, but he did not intimate that
he had determined to risk whatever
chances he had by demanding from Blaine
declaration of his intentions.
Meanwhile Blaine has shown no dispo-
sition to resign or to go away, or to do
anything except to smile and say nothing.
He is willing to let the other fellows do the
talking.
But it is we'll known, for he has it set forth
in his book, in describing the relations of
President Polk and Secretary Buchanan,
that he does not think "the proprieties''
forbid his aspiring for the presidency even
il his 'chief'' aspires for it, too.
He is also understood to think that "the
proprietles'' forbid 'locum tenens'' like
Harrison feom trying to keep out of the
presidency the real leader of his party,
simply because be happens by the choice
of that leader to be in the White house for
one term only.

Countess Russell Does Not Get a Legal
Separation.
! LONDON, Dec. 4.-Developments in the
Russell case Wednesday whetted the nppe-
tites of the scandal lovers of London and
court was crowded again to- day. The pro-
ceed1ngs were enlivened by tilt between
counsel in regard to the Roberts incident.
During argument the presiding justice said
he intended to get at the root of this mat
ter. He declared that it ought to have been
put into definite Shape rs a criminal charge
or charge of gross indecency. The enrps
redirect examination was resumed this
morning. He said that until the Williams
girl incident was brought out in court the
story OF his connection with her was not
known ut Teddington, where she lived ex-
cept by members Of her family. She is still
living ut Teddington and no public !e-
proaeh had attached to her. This closed
the earl's testimony.
Sir Charles Russell then summed up for
the defense. He said the case should never
have been brought into court, supported ~
denoe. Sir Edward Carke's address was
characterized by the great emphasis he
laid upon the telling points in tho eyilenca
for the petitioner. He declared. however,
that the evidence submitted would have no
effect upon the reputation OF Prof. Rob-
eTln' IHe 0pJscC OI Cuo Souutess huSSell
in raising the action was not to obtain
money. Her chief reason was that she
wished to relieve herself of the obligation
Of living with man whose treatment had
led to their separation.
Justice Butt then summed up the evil
dence, occupying an hour and a quarter.
He stated that he did not agree with Sir
Charles Russell that the suit was only i'll
Etituted with the object OF obtaining al
allowance. Tho cnse was then given to the
jury, who returned verdict in favor of
Earl Russell. When the result was an
nounoed the earl's friends in the court room
sprang to their feet and cheered heartily.

ENLARGED Use of silver.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Yhe expression of
Goschen, chancellor of the exchequer, in
favor of the enlarged use of silver by The
Bank of England, causes great satisfaction
at the treasury department. Ii is regarded
as the direct result of the efforts which
Secretary Foster has been making through
Seligman aud other American bankers to
secure candid consideration Of the silver
question by European governments. Com
munications received at the treasury de-
partment indicate strong feeling in
France i'll favor of the enlarged use of silver,
which will probably receive fresh stimulus
from the declaration of Gosohan.
