Inferior and Rejected Goods Being Sent
Through Lake Ports.

Marquette. Mich, July 17.--It was
learned at the custom house here yes
terday that the country is being flooded
with low-grade teas through the ports
of Sault Ste. Marie and Port Huron.
These teas had all been rejected at New
York and Boston on account of their
inferior grade, but were promptly re-
packed and worked into the country
through the above named ports, where
there are no expert testers and apprais-
ers Complaints have been made by mer-
chants of Detroit and other cities, the
inferior goods passing custom inspection,
and investigation developed the loopholes
where the rejected teas slipped through.
An inspector is here gathering proofs.

CHAPTER NV.


"TLe story about this Spaniard, CUT
fanta, is strange one," Philip Smerdon
wrote from Occleve Chase to Lord Pen
Ign, who had informed him Of the visit
he had received and the revelations made
by the Senior, ''but may as we'll tell you
at once that 1 don't believe it, although
you say that the lawyers, as we'll as
Stuart and Dobson, are inclined to do so.
My own opinion is that though he may
not have killed Mr.. Cundall, he is still tell
ing you lie-for some reason Of his own,
as to the friendship that existed between
them, and he probably thinks that by pre-
tending to be able to find the man, he will
get some money from you. With regard
to his having been face to face with the
murderer, why, if so, does lie not say on
what occasion and when? To know his
face as that of the murderer, is to say,
what in palmer words would be, that he
had either known he was about to commit
the act, or that he had witnessed it. 1t
admits of no other Interpretation, and,
consequently. what becomes Of his avow-
ed love for Cundall, If he knew OF the
contemplated deed and did not prevent it,
or, having witnessed it. did. not at once
arrest or kill his aggressor? You may de-
pend upon it, my dear Gervase, that this
mans talk is nothing but empty bragga-
docio, with, as l said before, the probable
object of extracting money from you as he
previously extracted it from your brother.
LAS to the locking up of the. garden and
allowing no one to enter it, l am inclined
to think that it is simply done with the
object Of making pretense Of mysteri-
ousiy knowing something that no one else
knows. And it is almost silly. for your
garden would scarcely happen to be select
ed by the murderer as a place to, visit. and
what object could he have in so viSitin g
it? However, as it is a place lever used.

would so a little farther than he wishes.

Honest Money.

If prosperity Deepen led upon the volume
OF money in circulation we ought to be con-
tented now. for this country already has more
money in circulation. in proportion to the
population. than almost any other country in
the world; more than it used to have. years
ago, before the so-called "crime of 1871
But mere volume OF currency can not create
prosperity In the last year Of the war there
Was enough money in circulation in the
South. Men handled it by the bale They
paid $500 or S400 for barrel of flour. But
the land was not prosperous. Other countries
have been flooded with deprecated currency.
and yet have suffered from the hardest of
hard times. 1t is necessary, of course, to
have enough money for the transaction of
business. We have that now. But after that
it is the quality, not the quantity, that counts
Major Mckinley put the whole matter into
a nutshell the other day when he said, with
the lucidity and force that are characteristic
of his utterances: at is good deal better to
open up the mills of the United States to the
labor of America than to open up the minis
world" What the workingmen of America
and the business men of America. and all
honest Americans need. is chaLce to earn
money honestly and payment in honest
money when they have earned it.-New York
