STRUGGLED GLOVES.
Oregon Postal Officials Find Them In
Packages of PaDerS.

Oregon Postal Officials Find Them In
Packages of Papers.
Officials connected with the Postoffice
Department Of this city have discovered
a neat attempt to swindle the United
States Government by smuggling kid
gloves into this city and escaping the
payment of duties. Some time since q
sudden increase in the newspaper mail
between Hong Kong, China, and this
city became apparent, says the Port
land Oregonian. It was surmised that
certain persons had become interested
in the Japan-China war and
were being supplied with news
papers containing full accounts
Of the wars progress, and
the first lot Of papers was delivered
without question. Last Saturday there
was another batch of papers received,
many of them being addressed to
women in the city, and the suspicious
Of the postof1ce authorities were
aroused. Collector Black, of the Gus
toms service, was informed of the sus-
picious nature of the packages, and
thirteen Of them were turned over to
his custody for investigation. It is re-
quired, when the postal officials have
cause to think that the mails are being
used for the purpose of smuggling con-
traband goods, that the package under
suspicion must be given to the Collec-
tor Of Customs, and the party to whom
the same is addressed must open the
same in the presence of the customs Of
f1cials for inspection. On Saturday a
woman to whom a number Of apparent
newspapers had been sent called at the
Custom House to receive the same from
the Collector if they passed inspection
after being opened and examined.
Within the folds Of the papers two pairs
of kid gloves were found, and exanina-
ton of other bundles resulted in similar
finds. The gloves were all conf1scated
by the Collector, and will be sold at
auction in due time
The woman stated to the Collector
that she had an idea who sent the
gloves, but she refused to disclose any
names, and there is no law to compel
her to do so, Neither can the party
sending the gloves be molested and the
only thing that the Government can do
is to seize the goods. The gloves are
of ordinary make, coming in a variety
of shades, but those who have been re-
ceiving presents from such sources will
find the supply of gloves now cut off, as
every package of papers will be in
spected. The duty on kid gloves is so
per cent Of the value at port Of impor-
tation, and in amount the money which
the Government has lost is trifie.

-Messrs. Stringham and Goergen
of the strikers committee, called at this
Office last evening and stated that they
wished to be set right in reference to
their attitude toward John OHare, the
chairman of their committee. They
say that O'Hare had no authority
whatever to declare the strike off and
this he did without even consulting the
men. The strikers deposed him from
his position as spokesman because they
believe they cannot depend upon him.
In relation to the advance in pay
promised by Mr.. futile, they say 10
per cent. will not help them much and
that the men have all determined to
not go back until their full pay is re-
stored.

is shown an advertisement being placed

rum through Charles III. Fuller's adj
vertising agency, and is quite depart
ure for the usual sanitarium display.
The border is unique and SNOWY and
the illustration and matter are we'll

sanitarium advertising that has ap-
peared thus far in the season.
Three of the men who are out at
the Novelty Works called at this office
this morning and in their own behalf
gave their version of the trouble at the
works. They say the men are all
grown men excepting one or two, that
only eight of them are out, and that
their wages do not average $3.50 week
as reported. They claim they are now
receiving but four cents for the same
work they once received seven cents
for and what they demand is an adj
vance toward the old rate. The men
also say that they did not march with
the brass mill men and that they have
nothing to do with their strike. Mr..
Jones was seen about the alleged re-
duction and he says that the four cents
paid is for cutting shells only and that
the seven cents formerly paid was fo1
cutting and coloring, no cut in the
wages having been made.

The statement published in this
mornings city papers to the effect that
the Aliens Sons Workmen were con-
templating striking next Monday morn
ing is untrue. The employees say there
is nothing in it and they do not propose
to go out.
The news service of the American

the strike that service said Mayor Pet

MAYORS OFFICE, Kenosha, Wis.
To the State Board Of Arbitration and
Cancellation:
GENTLEMEN: 1t has been made to
appear to the undersigned, the Mayor
Of the City Of Kenosha, that a strike of
certain of the employees Of The Chicago
Brass Company, to the number Of
about one hundred, has actually oc-
Cured in the City OF Kenosha.
1t has been further made to appear
to the undersigned, the Mayor of the
City of Kenosha, that the cause of said
strike is a disagreement between said
employees and The Chicago Brass Com
pany as to the wages of such employees;
the employees claiming that living wages
are not being paid them by said Com
pany.
That said strike involves the bust
ness interests of the City of Kenosha,
and it is my desire that your Board in
vestigate the same as provided by Sec
ton 9 of Chapter 364 of the Laws of
Wisconsin, for the year 1895.
Dated July 18th, A. D., 1895.
VIM. M. FAIR,
Mayor of the City of Kenosha.
AS yet have received no reply.
Deeming the case urgent, for the well
fare of the city, have this evening
sent a night message to the Governor.
1t is deplorable fact that the strik-
ers have been receiving very low
wages, on the other hand we all know
that the manufacturer and capitalist
has had his trials, and that his bed has
not been one of roses. We trust and
hope that this difficulty may be ami
cably settled at once, and that the
men may receive the highest possible
wages.

mine recently and when approached on
the subject by a reporter delivered him

Mr.. Luce expects that the opals from
hts mine will be placed on the market
some time this fall, and with this end in
view the owners will push development
work.
The discovery of these opals was one of
the surprises of the mining history of the
