They say the tariff is II tax That
is captivating cry. So it is tax; but
whether it is burdensome upon the
American people depends upon who
pays it. If we pay it, why should the
foreigners objecty Why all these OBJ
iections in England, France, Germany,
Canada and Bermuda against the tariff
law of 1890, if the American consumer
bears the burdens, and if the tariff is
only added to the foreign cost which
the American consumer pays? If they
pay it, then we do not pay it, and If the
increased tariff has not increased the
price of commodities upon which the
tariff has been advanced, then we know
we do not pay it.

paper published in Hamilton, Bermuda,
dated April %, 1892, containing the pro-

which had under consideration at that
date the American tariff and how its
burdens were to be removed from the

Will Stop at an Island in Search OF the
Crew of the Brig Tahiti.
There lies quite an interesting story back Of
the simple paragraph printed in yesterdays
STAR to the effect that the U. s. s. Boston would
possibly be called upon to go to an island off
the west coast of Mexico to pick up the crew OF
an abandoned vessel supposed to be there. The
Boston is now on her way from Callao to San
Francisco, and on her arrival at Panama she
will probably be met with telegram ordering
her to stop at the Island of Socorra to see if
perchance there may not be there band Of
shipwrecked sailors. who, if they are there
have probably given up all hope Of ever being
rescued.
Among Secretary Tracys callers yesterday
was a Mr.. Leavitt who is part owner of the
American brig Tahiti that was lost with all on
board about September 20 last. He stated to
the Secretary that there was possibility that
the crew Of the brig may have escaped and
found refuge on the Island Of SOcorra. one of q
group OF islands couple Of hundred miles of
the coast. The way he came to this conclusion
was rather an interesting one. Some time
after the date on which the Tahiti is thought
to have been lost an unknown vessel was
sighted, bottom up, near the coast, and soon
after vessel. supposed to be the same one.
superstition that it was the same
vessel and moving along at about the
some speed decided that she must have been
near the Island Of Socorra when she was cap
sized on September 20. 1t was known that the
abandoned hulk was without boats and it is
thought that the crew may have made their
way to the island, which is high one and visit.

rich in turtles and wild goats, enough to sup
port life at any rate.

consul at one Of the Central American ports

The island is but little out of tho Boston path

told to stop on the chance Of rescuing this

Secretary Blaine Given Ten Days to Print
Them in Full.
Mrs. Marie Nevins Blaine has furnished to the
press an open letter to Secretary Blaine in
which she denies the charge that she led his
son unresisting to the altar. After saying that
she was well aware that she was unable to cope
with the Secretary in personal encounter she,
however, expected the considerate and honor
able treatment which his keen sense Of fair
ness would dictate. She then says:
Have the kindness publish in connection with your
statement the full of the letters you have quoted
from, and do not like shrewd and unprincped person.

said yesterday:
1t seems that Mr.. Blaine believes that too

remarks made from the bench. though thought at

most moderate and conservative language and upon

FRAUDULENT TRANSFERS.

AAoaArOoO A0tuOr1tboos
Those people who have been cheating the
Metropolitan and Columbia street railway COM
panies by riding down town and home again
for single fare are going to cause honest peo-
pie more than little Inconvenience. When
the Metropolitan company made transfer ar
rangements with the Columbia at 9th and l4th
and New York avenue both companies expected
to have their pockets filched Of few nickels
by unprincipled passengers, and they were
willing to permit trihing irregularity. The
irregularity is no longer q little matter. and
that is why steps are about to be taken to pre-
vent fraud. The scheme, which was worked
principally by women, was simple one.
Passengers from the north would transfer at
9Th and streets, make whatever purchases
they could within the time allowed by the trans
fer. and then proceed over the F street line to
18th and New York avenue. There they would
transfer to the Columbia and at 9th and New
York avenue they secured another transfer.
which took them out 9th street. The same
plan, varying the route, was followed by pas
sengers from the west end and those from the
eastern end of the Columbia road. Last month
the companies spotted 6,0O8 fraudulent trans
fers. The dishonesty will be checked within
a few days." said President Pearson of the
metropolitan company to STAR reporter.

RUNAWAY.
Yesterday the horse attached to a feed wagon
belonging to L. S. Depue became frightened on
32d street near n and started to run away. The
driver, Geo. Bell. who was on the ground at the
time. clutched at his nose with remarkable
strength and succeeded in keeping the animal
out of harms way until n street was reached,
when the sudden turning of the corner upset
the wagon, threw Bell violently to the ground
and bruised him badly. The runaway was
finally brought up on Jefferson avenue.
