TAXING WHISKY FROM BOND.
Something Mysterious About Recen
Operations,


The Chicago Herald says:-"No one in Chi
cago believed last night that the distillers
ever made serious attempt to borrow
100000. The traders who are now
in a position to understand the va
rious moves made by those who were
manipulating the market, think the whole
story Of the big loan was cooked up
to give somebody q chance to milk the
street. They say il is absurd to suppose
the loan could not have been had on the
security offered. Advices from Peoria last
night confirmed this opinion and convinced
traders that the large quantities of whisky
had been taken from bond at the old reye-
nue. rate for personal account, almost as
much. in fact, the distillers would have
taken out themselves had they got Mr..
Sage's money. The revenue collections at
Peoria yesterday were S.27, 69S, which broke
all records. Money kept coming in all day
from mysterious sources to be used in get
ting whisky from bond. Orders were re-
ceived by the company for sl.173OOO worth
of goods. 1t filled what IL pleased and let
the rest go. Ever since the tariff bill pass
ed whisky has been taken from bond at the
old tax rate in a rathe.- mysterious way.
Now that IL Is all over, the discovery is
made that the Peoria houses have only
2,Sun,o0 gallons left on which the tax has
not been paid. Why they should be making
such heroic efforts to raise SJ,OO0OO0 to
take that ont when only 81, 100000 would be
required is Sc netting nobody but outsiders
can explain. The total collections at Peoria
since the tariff bill passed aggregate ST.,
4l9.11S 1t is known that nearly 2,5O0,OO0
gallons of goods have been taken out, most
of il during the last week, and the SUPPOSE

Lots of Human Nature in This Brief
Street Incident.
A tired looking little girl dawdled
down Eighth avenue yesterday morn
ing pushing before her with one hand
a baby carriage with good fat baby
within. Under her arm, rolled up in
newspaper, was a large block of ice.
The chiid's thoughts were evidently
not on baby and ice, for she hummed
dreamily to herself and with a far
away look in her eyes
All at once the paper burst there
was crash and her ice lay on the
pavement in thousand pieces. The n
she came back to earth and broke
down in a violent bit of sobbing
Gazing sorrowfully at the ice, she be.
gan picking up the pieces, and after a
seconds thought discarded the broker
paper and setto packing the fragmen is
in the carriage around the baby's feet.
AS she did SO a big tear splotched upon
every one The baby kicked at the
chips half uncomfortable, half amused,
and every kick the baby gave was a
fresh reminder of misfortune to the
little girl ana was answered by a
catching sob. The bystanders looked
on pityingly, but no one offered to do
any thing. There are two ways of in
tervention in a case like this and re-
suits are quick to prove the better
one.
"You foolish, silly little girl
called out one woman, breathlessly.
You're positively wicked. Don't you
see you're chilling that baby? You'll
give it it's death. Stop crying, throw
out that ice and wheel the child
home"
The little maid sat down on the
curbstone at this and bawled. Twas
bad enough to face proba BILE spank
ing, but a scolding beforehand just
broke her all to pieces
Feeling she had done her duty, the
woman passed on. and then the right
man came along. He was a jolly
faced truckman. why, cheer up,
young 'un," he said. There amt
nothin' on earth that money can't
cure How much was it? Three
cents There, run now and get a new
piece"
And the transformation in that lit
tie woman's face was worth many a

13,1S61, when he landed on American
soil He had crossed the Atlantic IN
the old side wheel steamer Africa,
whose dock was in Jersey City, and as
it was 10 p. m. when the vessel reached
her warf, he and his distinguished fell
low travellers remained on board until
the next morning. Imagine any At.
lantic voyager with the price of a

landing as early as 10 p m. in these

The fact is also worth commenting
upon that the leading New York
newspaper of that era devoted less
than half columns space to the land
ing of the royal party the following
day. saying, among other things:
"A great mum Der of pers ons assem-
bled Yesterday morning on the wharf
of the Jersey side, but strictly con-
forming with the express wish of the
Prince de Joinville, who headed the
royal party, every thing was got ready
for leaving the Africa in the most
private and unostentatious manner
The prince, accompanied By his Young
friends and suite, went over the side
of the steamer and entered a row boat
which took them to the foot of Cham
bers street, where carriages were in
waiting to convey the party to the
Brevoort House"
The party, whose arrival in New
York city was thus summarily dis
missed, consisted of the Prince de
Joinville, his son, Pierre Philippe,
Due de Pen thievre, and his nephews,
the Corute de Paris and the Due de
