IMPORTS OF TEA.



With new York Dealers.
Special Dispatch to the Post-Inteiligencer.
TACOMA. Dec. AT q meeting of the
trustees of the Chamber Of Commerce last
evening ii was decided TO wire the follow
ing message TO the treasury department IN
answer to the protest recently entered by
New York tea importers against the Puget
sound tea examiner:
please take no action regarding the
protest Of New York tea importers rela-
tive TO examiner In Puget sound district.
as statistics reported are grossly mislead-
Ing. Correct figures will be forwarded"
In answer TO this message the following
Howell assistant secretary OF the treas
ury:
NO immediate action win be taken In
matter Of tea examiner"
Among the things contained In the pro-
test that has caused all the trouble Is the
following In regard to Tacoma:
Several firms have previously signed a
petition TO open Tacoma under the mis-
apprehension that over 20. 90 600 pounds OF
tea have been annually entered at that
port, whereas the fact is that only lco0 900
pounds was entered last year for Tacoma,
Portland and Seattle taken together, as
against 9o.eoo.Ooe pounds for the United
states, and the balance passed through in-
terror ports.''
Secretary Collyer. upon learning the ac-
ton taken by the New York importers, set
to work and compiled figures which will
show that already this year the entries
OF tea at Tacoma will amount to over L.
oo".eoo pounds, the actual number OF pack
ages examined by Inspector Palmer being
l9z.1f7. or R,6A.1 2S pounds These are the
entries for consumption, a great many
packages having been forwarded In bond
There have been shipped over tn, North
ern Pacific during the past eleven months
2, eV64S pounds OF tea, which amount to
I3,so tons. With these figures the Cham
Der OF Commerce expects to show the
treasury department that the wall from
the New Workers is an unjust one.

Goodwin Case May End.


Goodwin Case May End.
Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.
TACOMA, Dec. 2.-After a bitter fight
extending over eight years in the courts,
there Is fair prospect that decision will
soon be reached in the Goodwin-Smith
land suit. Judge Kean decided verbally
yesterday that the Goodwins are TO be
allowed property enough to Offset that
which the Smiths have already received
from the land in controversy-the Smith
& Fife tract.
The trouble first occurred after the death
OF E. S. Smith, who was a partner Of E
ii. Goodwin. the two buying half of what
is known as the Smith & Fife tract. Good
win being silent member of the firm
The purchase was made in 1875, Smith dy-
ing ten years later. 1t was then for the
first time known that Goodwin was a
partner of Smiths, as he filed a suit
against the executors Of the estate for
half OF the property.
This was contested by the Smith heirs
who remained in possession and enjoyed
the profits OF the property. Some time
after Smiths death Goodwin also passed
away, leaving his heirs to continue the
night against the Smith heirs.
