THE GOVERNMENT WON.
A Case Involving Claims for Rebates OF
Tariff.

New York, March Among the de-
cisions handed down to-day in the
United States circuit court of appeals
was one which was signal victory for
the government, the decision in question
being in the case of the United States
against E. Rosenwald u Bro, import
ers. The Judgment of the lower court
IN favor of the importers is reversed, and
the collectors classification of Sumatra
tobacco, on which the case hinges, is
sustained. The case is unusually i'm
portant, because the refunds claimed by
importers of Sumatra tobacco under the
tariff of 1888, still unpaid, amount to
over 81, 100000. The decision may en-
able the government to prevent any re-
covery at all by the importers. In ad-
dition it will probably prevent any future
similar claims for refunds.

Five States Will Contribute Seeds for
the Drouth- Sufferers.
OMAHA, March 5.-The members of
the state relief commission, who went to
Chicago and St. Louis to secure seed
grain for Nebraska's destitute farmers,
returned to-day, The boards of trade in
both cities promise to have each county
in Missouri and Illinois donate car OF
seed. Iowa, Minnesota and Indiana
also desire to contribute. 1t is estl-
mated by Secretary Mason that the five i've
states will contribute not less than 5OO
cars of seed grain. The commission has
made careful estimate, and it is stated
that to plant the land under cultivation
in the forty-tbree drouth-stricken coun-
ties would require in the aggregate
5000, 900 bushels. The planting of these
lands means, in the event OF crop, the
sum of 500. OOO, 900 to the farmers.

FOUND A SHORTAGE
Muddled Condition of a Missionary So
ciety's Accounts

NEW YORK, March There is a.
shortage in the accounts of the Ameri-
can Church Missionary Society, and the
books of the organization have been
found to be in such confusion that the
experts are not as yet in a position to
make detailed statement. The state
ment duplicates Rev. William A. New
bold, OF Montclair, N. j., and the treas
urer, Henry A. Oakley, of New York
city. The TACT that their accounts were
III muddled condition was discovered
ABOUT month ago, and at once spe-
clal committee was appointed to inves-
tlgate the matter. To-day a meeting of
the executive committee was held. The
special committee presented it's report
IN which 1t was stated that a shortage
had been found. The report itself the
committee refused to make public.
Bishop Peterkin, OF West Virginia, said
tonight relative to the action of the
executive committee:
The irregularities are such as war
rant the removal OF the secretary and
treasurer from office. The society's ex-
penditures are between $25, 900 and $780,
600 year, and the money is paid out
mostly In small sums, making the audit
Ing OF the accounts extremely difficult.
The society has not been entirely Grip
pied by these irregularities, but they
have extended over period of five or
six years. 1t is impossible to make a
detailed statement. l would not like to
call it defalcation, but | will say that
hereafter the society would like its
money handled in different manner"
A BUREAU WITHOUT A HEAD.
Tangle in the Affairs of the Immigra-
ton Department.
WASHINGTON, March There is
curious tangle in the affairs of the i'm
migration bureau which cannot be
Strengthened out until the president re-
turns from his trip to North Carolina.
By an act passed during the closing
hours of congress, and which received
the presidents approval, the office of
superintendent of immigration was
abolished, and the position of commits
sioner-general of immigration" was
created. No provision was made in the
bill, which was drafted by the treasury
department, to continue in Office Mr.
Herman Stump, of Maryland, the pres
ent efficient superintendent of immigra
ton under the new title given to the
duties of his Office as commissioner
general Of immigration" The cOnse-
quence is that the immigration bureau
is now without an official head. MIR.
Stump continues to exercise general
supervision over the work of the office,
but the official mail has to be signed by
the chief clerk. When the president re-
turns of course it will be entirely compe-
tent for him to make a recess appoint
ment designating superintendent
Stump as ''commissioner-general," and
if the senate, when it meets in Deem
Der, confirms the nomination everything
will be all right. In the meantime, and
until the president returns and takes
action, there is vacancy at the head of
the immigration bureau.

A ROPE OF CORK.
A Big Saving on ShipbOard by This
New Idea.

1t frequently happens that ropes
thrown out from boats are lost, as
they sink at once if the end on board
slips from the sailors hand. To pre-
vent this, ropes are now made OF
cotton over a centre of small pieces
of cork, which cannot sink. The
many advantages offered by this i'm
provement are obvious. For life
saving apparatus the adoption of
such rope will be especially useful.
As it will float under all circum-
stances, such a rope will show a lost
anchor or dragnet, or if rolled up
may even be used as life buoy. If
the cork centrepieces are even and
well fitted cylindrical pieces they
will not interfere in the least either
In the suppleness or the strength OF
the rope. A test has shown it to
stand even a greater strain than an
ordinary rope of the same thickness

1t begins to look as if the cream of
the racehorse blood of the world will
be soou monopolized by the great
Rancho del Paso breeding farm in

National Cane Shredder
tPATENTED UNDER THE LAWS or
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS,

Mr.. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful.
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED.
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commence
ment of the crop just har-
vested:
During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex-
ceeded any of its former
records by closing the 1876
hours grinding with an output
of 3008 tons. This is fully 10
per cent. more than the best
work of former years.
"The three roller mill being
26 In. by 81 in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently erec-
ted by the Company. And
by it's use the extrac-
ton has been increased from
8 per cent. to 5 per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases so per cent. has been
reached; the average being rs
to IS per cent, according to
quality.
II continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
! better fuel than from whole
cane. -
"The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven months and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand tons
of cane, and q large part OF it
being hard ratoons.
"The shredder and engine
require very little care or
attention"
