Commissioner Babcock reported fur
ther that the hatchery committee had a
large number of fish for distribution

prime condition. and that with the very
much increased facilities and the stock
on hand 1t is probable that the distri-
button next year will be large.
improvements in the way Of rearing
troughs have been added to the Fulton
Chain hatchery, which places It among
one of the best hatcheries in the state.
and a large number Of fingerlings and
yearlings will be raised there during the

The merchants of the island. accord

expressing their approval Of General
Weyler's campaign and their entire con-
fdence in him.

Though General Weyler's agents have

NOT RETROACTIVE.
Important Decision on the
New Tariff Law.
IMPORTERS MAY GET MONEY BACK.
Those whose Goods Were Entered July
"a Before the Signing OF the
Act VIII BE Able TO
Get Rebate.

NEW YORK. oct. 9.-Unless the
courts reverse the board Of general ap-
pralsers. importers whose goods were
entered at the custom house on Sat
urday, July "a. before the signing Of
the tariff act, will be able TO collect
from the government the extra duties,
amounting to perhaps 100000, they
We're compelled TO pay as a result Of the
governments claim that the tariff was
retroactive and that II took effect q,
the earliest possible moment OF the day
on which it was signed.
The board has sustained the protests
OF the importers against the position
taken by the government and instruct
ed collectors Of customs to reliquidate
the entries accordingly.
The opinion Of the board was written
by General Appraiser Somervllle for
merly associate Justice OF the supreme
court Of Alabama.
The specific case on which the deci-
sion was based was an importation OF
wool by Stoddard. Haserick. Richards
& Co. OF Boston. The wool was entered
for consumption during the forenoon OF
July "a and permits for delivery from
the collector and naval officer were at
once placed In the hands OF the inn
porters. stamped Free" under the pro-
visions of paragraph 6s5 OF the tarlff
act Of 1894. which placed on the free list
all imported wool.
The entries were afterward llquidated
by the collector 50 as to classify and
assess the wool for duty under para
graph 357. schedule X. OF the tariff act
OF July "a, which levied a duty OF II
cents per pound on imported wool OF
class /.
Judge Somerville. after Weighing the
arguments Of the importers and OF the
government, reaches the following con-
illusions:
First THAT the tariff act OF July "a
did not become operative as law until
4:06 o'clock D. m. OF said day, when Il
was approved by the president
Second. That II was not operative by
relation on any previous hour OF the
day but that the tariff act OF Aug. 2S
1894, remained unrepealed and in forcs
until the precise moment when said ac'
OF July "a was approved.
Thirds-That goods imported and en-
tered for consumption in the forenoon
OF said July "a. or at any hour prior 4
the time OF approval Of said act, woul'
be governed as to classification an,
rates OF duty by the tariff act Of 1894
and not by said act OF 1897.

A NOTED SWINDLER.
Emmett @. Gibson, Confidence
Man, Arrested.
BANKER CLEWS FELL AVICTIM TO HIN
He Made a Speciality of Heating Hotels
by Presenting Bogus Checks and
Receiving Change When Pay
ing His Board Bills.

NEW YORK, oct. s-captain Nc
Clusltey has locked up at police head
quarters Emmett c. Gibson. alias George
A. Sherin, 39 years old, an alleged rail-
road promoter and all around swindler
During the last three or four years he
has by bogus checks succeeded In swim
ding prominent men and hotel keepers
out Of something like S400,0 000
Among the most prominent men who
fell into the hands Of this prince Of
beats" are Henry Clews and a promi-
nent dry goods merchant.
Gibson was arrested at the Grand
hotel, Broadway and Thirtieth street,
by Detectives Evanhoe and Conway.
The specific charge against him Is
that he laid down a bogus check with
Fl. IB. Stimson. auditor Of the Imperial
hotel. Thirty-second street and Broad
way He swindled the hotel out Of $265
board bill He presented $500 check
and took the change.
At police headquarters Gibson de-
scrlbed himself as the vice president Of
the Akron (O.) Street Railway compa-
ny. and until very recently he occupied
room in the Mills building. in Broad
street. His Office was next to that OF
Henry Clews.
Captain McCluskey had been looking
for Gibson for a long time Almost ev-
cry day complaints came to the de-
tective bureau of bogus check having
been presented at some hotel, and In
every case McCluskey at once knew
that II was Gibson who was doing It..
The complaints came from surround
ing cities as well as this city. A year or
two ago Gibson interested big dry
goods merchant of this city to the ex-
tent Of purchasing a newspaper for him,
to be run in the interest Of the dry
goods store.
Gibson had only got the newspaper
fairly running, when, unknown to his
benefactor, he sold the plant. This
swihdle alone amounted to several
thousand dollars.
Gibson only very recently gave ST.
900 check to Henry Clews. who readily
cashed it, discovering too late that he
had been honoring worthless paper
on July "a he swindled the Hotel
Netherland, at Fifty-nlnth street and
Fifth avenue. out-o of an SSO.S7 board bill
on oct he swindled the Continental
hotel in Philadelphia with a $50 bogus
check, and the Hollander hotel Cleve-
! land, and Bristol inn, Akron, o., by th'
| same means.
He got into the Cadillac hotel o.
Pittsburg by presenting $3.50 check t'
pay his board and was paid the balance
In cash.
He was arrested Jan. 1 Of this yea
on complaint OF the proprietor of th'
Parker house. in Boston. He presented
a $500 check to pay q S40o board bill
and got 800 in cash.
The Hotel Strathford, in Philadelphia
was beaten out of a board bill
He stayed one day at the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel this city, beat the board bil
and got away with 50. a rebate upo
his bill, which he paid with a bogu
check.
Gibson had for a private secretary "
H. Campbell, who had so much conf
dence that he cashed a 1880 bogus chee
for him.
A Cleveland widow was another o
his victims Captain McCluskey say
she gave Gibson $4,000 to invest for he
She never got a cent in return, 1t
alleged.
