OPIUM LABELED AS APRICOTS,
Large Seizure Made Yesterday
on the Oceanic Dock.
The Opium Ring in MournIng-They
Lose 61O Tins OF COntraband
Drug-Good Work Done.

Port Surveyor Sanders was in a
happy frame of mind yesterday /; a
large capture of opium was the
cause. Three officers captured 61O
tins between them and earned a
handsome reward for themselves at
the same time.
The first seizure was made by
inspectors Johnson and Innes.
They were instructed to search the
Oceanic warehouse they followed
out their orders and returned with
an innocent-looking box which
was labeled pie fruit. The box
was marked "S," the letter being
stamped inside of a diamond. The
box did not contain pie fruit or
any other fruit it was filed to the
top with half-pound tins of opium /;
there were 160 tins in all. The
drug was taken to the custom
house.
This capture was only circum-
stance to another ''ind" made a
few hours later. Inspector Thurs
ton made it his business to look
after boxes of fruit and finally To-
Gated three labeled "Apricots."
The boxes were piled near a door
leading to the warehouse and were
marked NJ. & Co." The owner
did not appear to be around
so Thurston took them in charge.
When the covers were removed the
apricots were missing; the tins
had been replaced with opium.
The three boxes contained $50 tins
of opium.
About one month ago the port
surveyor introduced a new watch"
system and the result has been
most gratifying. His men have
captured the following within a
month: IT'S tins from bark Veloc-
ity; tins on the steamer
Mikahala 40 tins on barkentlne
S. G. Wilder; 5 tins on steamer
Belgic; "a tins from barkentine
w. H. Dimond 10 fve.gallon kegs
of whiskey on barkentine S. n.
Castle; 2 fve-gallon kegs of
whiskey on barkentine S. G.
Wilder, and the 610 tins captured
yesterday. Mr.. Sanders stated
that the four boxes found yester-
day were not on the ships mani
fest.
A silver watch was taken from
an employee on the Oceanic dock
yesterday. 1t was claimed by P.
G. Camarinos, who said it had
been purchased in San Francisco
by Steward James of the Australia.
The watch will probably be confis-
Gated.

The Russian Volunteer FIe

The Russian Volunteer Fleet.
According to the London Daily
News the Russian volunteer feet is
rapidly developing into very power
full and useful auxiliary hotilla to the
imperial navy. All the volunteer
steamers are so constructed and fit
ted as to be readily converted into
fairly we'll armed and fast cruisers.
The latest addition to the fleet Is the
vladimir, d vessel of 10000 tons dis
placement and nineteen knots speed,
which reached St. Petersburg recent
" from Denny Brothers yard at
DumbartOn. There are now three
other steamers of similar displace-
ment, carrying capacity 100000,
poods). aud speed under construction
In British dock yards, and a fourth
order has just been placed in Eng
land for a steamer capable of running
twenty knots. The first three yes
sells mentioned are to be delivered
early In the spring, and the last,
which will be called the Kherson, is
to be delivered about the end of next
year. Last year the volunteer fleet
made twelve trips to the far east;
this year sixteen journeys are being
made, next season twenty-one voy-
ages will be accomplished and in
1887 it is expected that thirty six
outward and homeward passages will
be made by the increased flotilla. At
present, and for some years past, the
volunteer fleet association has been
compelled to charter several foreign
steamers as auxiliaries to meet the
requirements.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April B.
,Snecial)-A mighty tussle Is going on
for the position Of Deputy Comptroller

Georee ID. Wise, of Richmond. would Ike
IN fill. according to the application whicn
has been on file for several days That
gentleman Is the only one OF the many
asnirants VINO has made an actual appn-
cation. according TO what Is stated AT
tho department Six names are before
the department formally but the other
FIVE are merely recommended, not having
had the boldness to say outright they
would like 10 be appointed. Their friends
have made the recommendations. Mr..
Wise's friends have also backed him. and
no is thought to have an even chance with
the others.
There are three candidates from Indiana
alone. all of the aspirants being ex-
members of the House who went down
i'm the storm that overlook the Democ-
racy last November. They are Messrs.
Holman. Bynum. and Cooper. The first
named Is believed to have no earthly
chance, and Mr.. Cooper is not considered
a very dangerous man in the race.
Most everybody is talking silver in
Washington these days, and Virginia
comes in for a good deal of the discus
sion, for the reason that many people
seem to have an idea that the Federal
ofiice-holders in the State viii now turn
their attention 10 overcoming the strong
sentiment which Is thought to exist in
favor of free coinage. Those opposed TO
silver merely take for granted that since
the President has declared against silver
every oflce-holder viii go to work TO
break down the silver sentiment in Nir-
ginla.
NO SILVER CONFERENCE.
All idea OF a silver monetary con-
ference abroad during the coming sum-
mer Is dlspelled, according to what can
be heard here, and the statement Is
made that even should one be called.

delegates Should this prove true. Sena-
tor Daniel will not have his trip 10
Europe unless the congressional dele
gates TO the proposed conference deter
