ROUNDABOUT ROUTE.
Long voyase of a Cargo OF NAils-An In
terestinC Case.

Lung NOyase OF u OarGO OF Nhlle-An IN
teresting Case.
The suit OF tho United States VS.. 260
kegs OF nails was argued on Friday before
the Oircut Court of Appeals in S. n
Francisco. 1t is an interesting one for
merchants, as on the Judgement in it
depends whether $250,000 worth OF
merchandise that has been seized shall
be sold by the Government or be returned
to its former owners. 1t ia interesting
also because OF the sidelight that it
throws on the overland freight charges.
The 250 kegs of fnaiis we're shipped from
New York in June, 1891, to Antwerp,
Belgium, on the Belgian ship Waesland.
and after being unloaded at Antw erp
were at once put aboard the British ship
MISUNDERSTANDING and taken to Re-
dondo California. A federal statute
provides that merchandise shall not be
transported from one port of the United
States to another on foreign bottoms,
and under that section the seizure was
made at Redondo.
1t may be seen that it would be more
expensive to send the goods to Europe.
thousands of miles out OF the way, when
their destination was domestic port,
but the shippers found the cost other
wise. On account OF the combination
between the Pacific Mail and the South
ern Pacific freight rates were 80 high
that il was cheaper for them to trans
port their goods on foreign ships. They
could not secure American bottoms at
reasonable rates. 1t would have bsen
plainly against the law to send merchan-
disc directly from New York to a Cali.
fornia port in foreign bottom. so the
device of shipping first to Europe was
resorted to. The goods were returned
free of duty, as goods OF American
manufacture are thus exempted under
the tariff law.
After taking this roundabout course
on the sea the merchant found that they
paid from IS TO 81 ton less for freight
than they would if they had shipped by
the more direct routes which the combi-
nation controlled.
Hardware was the principal hind of
merchandise thus shipped, as it did not
eafttpJhaM len q it. "a "a fseabA rnrens. y
whiskey were also seized. The seizures
at this port aggregated $250,O0O.
Before shipping by the European
route the New York merchants got q
ruling from the treasury department in
1891 that the law could not prevent the
shipping OF merchandise IN tnat way.
The treasury department issued blanks
to fit such shipments. When it was
seen that this plan would cut into the
freight business of the combination, the
treasury department changed its mind
and sent out instructions to make the
seizures.
District Judge Ross decided the Re-
dondo case against the government, and
an appeal was taken. 1t was argued in
San Francisco by District Attorney Cor
ter for the United States and Messrs.
Page and Andres for the merchants.
After Judge Ross decision, in which
ne held that the statute could not pre-
vent the mercantile maneuver, congress
in February, 1898, amended the law SC
as to prohibit any resort tothis saving
plan hereafter"

pretty house dress made from white and
blue striped elk trimmed with white
guipure lace. The skirt is trimmed
around the bottom with three narrow
lace ruffles and is lined with silk. The
bodice has point in book and hooks in
front. 1t is adorned with separate jacket
fronts, round at the bottom and having
small revers at the top, that are hidden
by the wide frill of lace commencing at
the base Of the revers, then continuing
over the shoulders and meeting in q
point in the center of the back. The
center of the front is trimmed with 9
perpendicular band of lace that hides
the hooks and eyes. The jacket fronts
are faced with blue velvet and the belt
is to match.
Small yokes, pointed front and back
and let into bodices, are covered with
rows OF brsiding and gold. These yokes
often come out for especial occasions.
But the American woman has . deep
rooted objection to the trick gown that
can be made to serve any occasion by
taking in or out yokes, adding train and
removing sleeves. When she has q new
dress she wants every one to know it is
new and that it isn't the old one with
the neck out Or with piece gone from

stood the statue of the Republic, and
you cannot do better than have your
morning gown draped in the back ss
Miss Republic wore her beautiful folds.
If you saw her you will remember; if
you didn't, these directions will make
it clear. A full breadth of very wide
and rich silken stuff must fall from
your shoulders softly to the floor in the
back. The material is gathered into
many fine folds on each shoulder. and
from this gathering two great flutes fall
the full length, one from each shoulder.
Between these flutes the goods fall in
great many horizontal small folds to
about the waist. In other words, the
goods are gathered perpendicularly and
horizontally too. The sleeves are ap-
parently combinations of the perpen-
dicular gatherings, and they are, as it
we're, another breadth, each caught up
loosely and flowing along the back,
mingling with the back. The fronts
fall open and wide, the edges taking rich
flutes as they fall. OF course, under this
would be worn short-wsisted gown Of
white with sleeves flowing to the wrist.
The dress Miss Republic wore ia, per-
haps, little classic for reproduction,
but the drapery effects were beautiful
and worth preserving. Salmon silk over
white, eminence velvet over lilac crepe,
or deep golden brown over corn yellow
would be good combinations for it.
If. of these two dresses, one is too
plain and the other too fanciful for your
liking, it may be that the dress worn by
a young matron shown in the second
illustration will prove happy medium.

set is worn with velvet or seal cloak.
Ermine is also used to line opera cloaks,
