CUsToM-HoUsE FRAUDS.
Officials Make Way With Evidence of
Their Guilt

Their Guilt.
Tucson "a. IT,, Aug. 8.-lStGY special
advices from Bisbee say: AT station on
the Bisbee railroad, a few miles below
this place, and several miles north Of the
Sonora line, four Mexican Custom-house
guards surrounded the station and cap
tured another Mexican, who had been
but few months previous chief of the
Mexican guards. He was on his way 10
the City of Mexico, and had with him a
trunk, which the invaders took posses
sion of and demanded the key of the
owner. This he refused to give up, al
though threats against his life were made.
They then procured an ak and broke
the trunk open. They took from it
bundle Of documents, and hastily de-
parted for their own country.
The victim refuses to say anything re-
garding the purport of the papers seized,
but from another source it is learned
that they contained damaging testimony
against the custom officials stationed in
Sonora, and that had he reached his deS-
tination with them it was believed that
wholesale arrests and removals would
have speedily followed. A telegram was
sent to the commander at Fort Huachrer
but he was unable to act. The matter is
being laid before the State Department at
Washington.

Cramp at Philadelphia a few days ago and
he told me the drawings and specifica-
tons had been made. The contract calls
for two ships of IL 900 tons each, but it is

Dallett said further: 81 do not see how
Congress can admit Captain Watkins of

very wrong to admit foreign vessels to

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-Julius Harbur-

when the religious crusades in Roumania

thousands set in toward the American

numbers, anarchists and nihilists, made
so through a brutal Government, came
over with these unfortunates and
preached their damnable and pernic1ous
doctrines. They had forgotten the es-
sence of the teachings OF their fathers,
that Judaism is the religion of law and
order. The dastardly and cowardIy at
tempt of the Russian nihilist dynamiter
and anarchist upon the life of the man
