London Culver is responsible for this
unlikely story:
People OF the free thinking class often
dispute the story of Jonah and the

Bible. They declare that the whale
never lived that could swallow man,

the word whale" as used in holy writ
referred to any large species of fish. Not

Special Agent of the Treasury

inquiry, by Special Employe 7. A. Byrne

is being conducted at the federal building,
which will undoubtedly result in sensa-
tion and probably shakeup in the special
agents Office in this city.
The investigation consists of an examiny
alton of the special agent in charge Con-
verse J. Smith, Chinese Inspector Miller,
Special Customs Inspector O'Neil, and
Special Employees Heintz and Bum, as to
the method they have pursued in the ex-
animation of Chinese papers at this port
since their appointment.
An effort has been made to keep the in
vestigation profound secret, but the facts

Although no charges have been brought
against the officials which will reflect
upon their character, yet certain things

out what Chinese firms existed In this city
and tho number of members in each firm.
Some of them claim to have from 25 to 80
members.
1t is understood that Mr.. Byrne has al
ready got this necessary information in
the shape of list of firms and members
Some of the leading Chinese merchants
have been called into Mr.. Byrne's office
and their statements have been taken by a
stenographer.
As far as the Cinnamon are concerned
that part of the investigation is finished
for the present. Mr.. Byrne then directed
his attention to the special agents office.
The first official to stand fire was Special
Treasury Inspector O'Neil. He has ex-
amined but small number of Cinnamon,
and his testimony will, therefore, not
throw much light upon "how the Chinese
business is conducted"
Mr.. Byrne has possession of the letter
book containing all of Inspector O'Neil's
reports, and it is said that he was favor
ably impressed with the contents of each
report.
