FACTORY AND FIXTURES SEIZED.
Tobacco Packages Found with Improper
Stamps on Them--A Fair Party.
SPECIAL telegram to the Dispatcn.l

CHmsTIANsDURa. Va. August 1.--Mr. A.
NJ. kasey, a tObaccOnlst of this place, had
bis factory, fixtures, and stock seized by 8
deputy marshal last Saturday. The trou-
bic grows out of the discovery that a
number 81 packages Of tobacco were not
properly stamped. In one store four
were found with only fifteen-pound stamps
on them, ana general inspection of the
stores and his factory disclosed the fact
that twenty-rlght packages all had on
them stamp. of less denomination than
the weights called for. Ii was thought
best by his friends not to give publicity 10
the affair through the papers. but 1t could
not be suppressed aud Is now public.
Information has been received that
seizures Of his tobacco have been made IN
Floyd. Ca.. oil, and Grays0n counties for
the same reason. No steps have been
taken as yet oOklng to q prosecution, and
Mr.. kaSey says that at the proper tlme he
can make satisfactory explanations.
Quite a number left this afternoon on
the Chicago express TO visit the Worlds
Far. The party consisted of Mr.. and
Mrs Charles /. Wade and son, Misses
Agnes Wade, Martha Montague. Mary
Junkin, LettIe johnson, Mary Phlegar,
and Emma Montague. They will be Joined

Ie HAS Determined TO Leave Hawaii 10
Commodore Sherrett
frv teiegraph 70 tse Iuapatcn.l

SAN FRAScIsco. CAL. August 1.-Au-
thentic adyices received here state that
Minister Blount has determined to turn
over matteft in Hawaii, az far as United
States interests are concerned, to Commo-
dore Skerrett. of the Boston. and that he
will sail for the United States on the 9Th
instant, without waiting for the appoint
ment OF his successor. Mr.. Blount may
therefore be expected 10 arrive at San
Francisco about August 18th. Meantime
his report, which has been mailed by the
steamer Oceanic, will have preceded him,
md by the time the Special Commissioner
and Minister arrives In the East the Presi-
dent and Secretary Gresham will have had
full opportunity to carefully consider its
contents, The intiEation that Mr..
Blount has rellnquished his mission be.
cause he resented his appointment as sue
cessor TO Minister Stevens does not appear
10 be borne out by facts. The appoint
ment followed Blounts arrival in Homo
lulu az a natural and necessary feature of
the work placed in his hands. and the
Minister'S reason for returning to the
United States is his desire to give atten-
ton to his personal affairs, which are
much in need of careful handling; and
the fact that he has already completed the
more important part of the work contided
to him Justifies him in returning to his
home.
