sHODDY DEALERS MAY BE TAXED.
There's a Law to Guard Merchants

There's Law TO OuRrd Merchants
Against Fly-by- night Fakes
The windows and doors Of certain
store on certain promin ent thorough
fare down town are aiiame with posters
with such announcements as '.hepleven ed
Sale" "Closed by the Sheriff. ETC., etc.
Inside a lot of suspended pantaloons and
coats are plastered with similar announce
ments.
This may or may not be one of those
fake clothing concerns which usually
drop down in the business centre OF
community, ply thriving trade WITH ig.
norant, unwary people, palm OF lot OF
shoddy stuff that by some legerdemain
process has been made to resemble woolen,

fresh prey else where. Usually these con-
Germs escape taxation, which Is certainly
an injustice to the local merchants.
talked with several leading clothiers on
the avenue last evening.
Il do not think that these fake con-
Germs interfere with the business OF the
larger houses, said Manager Thompson,
of Marshall, Ball & Co. They may pos
sibly annoy the smaller dealers. There
is very little transient trade carried on by
the larger houses. The trade is regular.
Each house has its general run of custom
ers. The people who deal with the fake
concerns are the ones who suffer. Indeed,
my own impression IS that the authorities
should not allow them % open 40 IN Jer-
sey City. OF course, do not speak with
reference to the concern now In opera
tion. | don't know anything about 1t.
But generally speaking such business is
not legitimate"
superintendent Bernstein of the Boston
Clothing House, too, denied that such
concerns bothered the larger dealers of
this city.
'I do not object" said he. "to these
people coming over here and trying 10
make an honest dollar. Indeed, If their
business was honest, / would feel like
sending them an occasional customer.
We don't deal in that class of goods Our
customers don't want any OF them. l
know nothing of the present concern. but
usually the stock brought over by these
concerns is shoddy. Tney are rags made
over into stuffs, and by dyes. etc, are
made to present a neat appearance. But
peopIe have been so often fooled that the
games now about played out. On general
principles the system Of allowing these
concerns to escape taxation Is unjust. 1t
certainly gives them an advantage over
the local merchants.
Mr.. George W. Clerihew said;-"Wear are
not often bothered nowadays with such
concerns. But there is a law which
makes ir obligatory for the authorities to
tax these concerns for the full wear. even
though they appear for only few days or
weeks / helped to engineer the law
through the legislature myself six years
ago, when City Collector O'Neill was the
assessor of the First district They have
only to enforce that law"
Mayor Cleveland has addressed letter
to the Tax Board, pointing out the law

SECRET FREIGHT RATES.


 It has long been known that great cor porations have been able to secure secret freight rates from railroads that would enable them to practically suppress com petition. The interstate commerce law is against this kind of thing, and it is cheering to see indications that the law may not be ineffective. A federal grand jury sitting in Chicago has returned seven indictments that will afford the founda- ton for very interesting and important trial under the provisions of the law. The indicted persons are four members of the we'll known firm of Swift 6 Go. ,whose busi- ness is the shipping of dressed beef; two officers of the Firmenich Manufacturing company of Marshalltown, Iowa, and George B. Spriggs, general freight agent of the New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad company. After ten days work the jury decided that these men ought to be tried on the charge that they had violated the law by receiving or by grant ing freight rates far below those fixed in the legal and published schedules. It is reported that the rebates received in six months by Swift & Go. were about $50, ,000. In the case of the Firmenich company, which manufacturers glue, the sum taken l in rebates in aix months is said to have been $S0,000.
 If the interstate commission can put a stop to the injustice which has been done by secret freight rates it will have the hearty thanks of the people.
