THE BRIGHTWOOD PARK.

Its Situation as a Business Investment.
The managers of the Brightwood Park en-
terprise, Messrs. Heron &sRamey, 1907 f
street northwest, are worthy of the success
they have met with. It Is one of the best
subdivisions within reach of the city centre.
Its short distance from the Departments and
business portion Of the city is greatly in its
favor. Then, too, it can be reached by street
cars for one fare from any part of the city or
Georgetown. 1t lies between Brightwood and
Magnolia avenues, with unsurpassed drain
age but 1000 feet distant from the Rock
Creek National Park, in connection with
which it expects to obtain, at an early date, the
city supply of gas and water. The Govern
ment will soon lay a brick pavement
front of the subdivision. Refined people
have found the park offered desirable home,
and accordingly the lots for 5, Z, and 10 cen ts
per foot, on easy monthly payments, are
meeting with rapid sale. Then, too, cottages
can be erected on their lots and paid for in
monthly installments of $50, S25, $50, and
$35-smaller monthly payments than would
pay rent for the same class of houses in the
city. Heron & Ramey, 1907 F. street north
and they are ready at all times to convey in
tending purchasers to and from the park.
The managers have met with success that is
phenomenal in the sale of real estate in the
city and its suburbs. There are thousands of
people, particularly those in Government en-
ploy, who will take advantage of this oppor-
tunity. 1t would seem from the above state
ment (and it can be relied upon) that there is
no easier way to obtain home on easy terms.
And now is the time to purchase, for with
the activity in building that will soon charac-
terize Brightwood Park prices will rapidly
advance Within a few weeks fifteen to
twenty cottages will be in process of erection.

WHOLESALE SMUGGLING.
Troubles Experienced Along Our North
ern Border.


Troubles Experienced Along Our North
ern border.
CHICAGO, June 1S.-Special Treasury Agent
Soehgen yesterday returned from an extensive
tfpin the Northwest, whittier he went to make
an exhaustive study of the customs service
along the Canadian border MIR. Soehgen
found that the number OF revenue agents is
totally inadequate to cope with the shrewd
Canadian traders, who easily smuggle Cana
dian and other foreign goods across the bor-
der at unprotected points. Around st. Vim
cent, Minn., Mr. Seehgen found the country
inhabited by class Of Canadians who, It is
said, are thoroughly in sympathy with their
brethren across the border In their efforts to
smuggle goods into the United States. At this
and other points, owing to the smallness OF
the customs service, thousands of bushels of
potatoes are rushed into the United States
without. paying duty. The tariff on potatoes
being 25 cents bushe, the loss to the Gov
ernment ia considerable. The inducement to
smuggle potatoes is great, too, as they bring
good prices in the States
In addition to potatoes agricultural imple-
ments are brought across the line In great
quantities The cooperation of large class
of the community with the smugglers makes
1t extremely difficult to detect the guilty
parties.
Another trouble the open Northwestern
border presents is the importation OF Chinese
and other foreigners. The rough, mountain
Gus country renders it easy to escape the
vigilance of the limited number of custom
house officers, and many Objectionable for
eigners from Europe are also crossing into the
States to avoid the searching inquiries at New
York. Opium smuggling, too, is frequently
reported from the Bauff, Moose Jaw, and
other isolated places. MIR. Soehgen's report
will at once be sent to Washington.

THE OLD STAR OFFICE.

Auctioneers.

Very soon the old square 1923, in which M. B.
Latimer established the auction business in
1867, corner Eleventh street and PENNSYLVANIA
avenue, will be taken possession of by the Gov
ernment and the old auction mart, where so
many rare and elegant articles of every de-
scription have been dispensed by him will
know 1t no more; and, knowing the fact, he,
with his partner, Mr.. Charles G. Sloan, have
secured large establishment at 14O9 G street,
at long lease for the general auction bust
ness; also, at great expense, have one of the
finest establishments for the sale of horses
and carriages at 1881 and 1888 FL street, two
squares above their main office, which is un-
surpassed for any business of such character
and in the most central location of the city.

Another Large Deal.

or all the delectable suburban subdivisions
that have been made in the vicinity of the
city, there is none which possesses more agree
able features than Fort Meyer Heights, oppo-
site the city on the Virginia side. In a late
issue of THE HERALD it was noticed that
Messrs. Robinson q Lodge had subdivided
large tract of land and that the lots had sold
like hot cakes. Cottages are in process of
erection on these lots. and it is fair to presume
that Others who own lots will build cottages.
But, at any rate, believing in the future of the
enterprise and encouraged by the sale of the
lots, Messrs. George p. Robinson and B. X.
Trimmer bought thirty-three acres adjoining
Fort Meyer for $4,000. What, per-
haps, had its effect upon these
capitalists was that the electric road
to Mount Vernon, under the auspices of we'll
known capitalists, is an accomplished fact
But apart from that is the question of homes
to be provided for at reasonable rates, and the
fact of near and reasonable communication
with the Capital City. In all the heights
about the city there is no more desirable To-
cation than the Fort Meyer Heights AS has
been stated above, they are easily accessible
and in point Of good water and all that makes
life enjoyable they cannot be surpassed. 1t
happens also that they have historic value.
Some of the greatest Of the episodes of the
Civil War transpired on those hills. When
Mcclellan had his interview with Stanton
and Lincoln, and when Scott gave way to Nc
Clellan, the very spot of the Fort Meyer sub
division lately made was the scene of their
interviews

WORLDS FAIR ROWS.
Heated Conflicts Between National and
Local Boards at Chicago.

Heated Conflicts Between National and
Local Boards at Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 13.-There is considerable
surprise over the failure OF the Worlds Fair
board of directors to confirm the appointment
Of M. E. Stone as chief of the foreign depart
ment. On receipt OF notice that the vote on
his confirmation was tie, Mr.. Stone sent
letter to Director General Davis declining to
allow the further use of his name. In this let
ter Mr.. Stone said he had a positive dislike for
taking up ''the arduous and thankless work
in store for any one who assumed the man
agement of the foreign department. This was
especially true when | came to understand
the existing differences between the local and
national board respecting the question of
jurisdiction. And the feeling of reluctance
was by no means dissipated by the perfect in
undation Of applications for places in the for
eign bureau. The pressure for positions by
members of the local board acting on behalf
OF their friends, did not promise we'll for an
efficient and business-like administration
MIR. Stone further said that it was plainly
stated in the act of Congress that the national
commission should have charge of all foreign
affairs. The directory has been assuming tn at
power.
local paper says: 'tThe board of control
of the national commission received the news
OF the directors action on appointments of
the director general, and spent some time in
discussing the matter That they were warm
was evident. One of them said that if neces-
sary the board Of control will remain in per-
manent session to run the foreign department.
1t is probable that the board of control will
not permit the director general to send any
officers OF either the commission or the

SCARCITY OF FOOD IN PERU.
Enormous Demands for the Fighting
Armies in Chilli.


Armies in Chilli.
PANAMA, June 4.-The President of Peru
has issued decree admitting free of duty into
the republic the following articles: LIVE
sheep and cattle, dried meats, salt beef, dried,
smoked, or picked fish, wheat and corn, po-
tatoes and all other vegetables, eggs, cheese,
chestnuts, peas, beans, rice, rape seed, herbs
and spices, and has decreed an export duty of
twenty soles, silver, per head on cattle ex-
ported, and two soles per head on sheep ex-
ported. This action, as announced in the de-
cree, is in consequence of the scarcity and
consequent high price of food in Peru, caused
by the floods that have followed the heavy
rains throughout the country, and by the
enormous demands for all forms of food
caused by the war in Chilli.
The export of provisions from Peru to the
armies of the insurgents along the coast of
Chill has so reduced the stock of -four and
meat that spectators have taken advantage
OF the situation and advanced the price Of
beef to forty cents per pound in the Lima and
Callao markets. where -four and bread are
held at similar prices.

The Maverick Bank Failure.

BosToN, Nov. 3.-LSpeciall-A mem
Der Of the committee of associated banks
expressed the opinion that depositors OF
the Maverick National Bank will ulti-
mately receive dividend amounting to
about seventy cents on the dollar. The
possible insolvency of Messrs. Potter
and French, in view of the disclosures
connected with their arrest, makes it
doubtful if the 100 per cent. assessment
to be levied on the stockholders will
yield anything on $50 shares held by
these gentlemen.
This view of the situation corresponds
with that held by others who are posted
in the matter.
