THE BOGUS STAMPS.
INSTRUCTIONS SENT OUT BY
COMMISSIONERS WILSON
WHICH INTEREST
CIGAR BUYERS.

Commissioners Wilson, of the In
ternal revenue bureau, has issued
the following letter of instructions
TO collectors
"I on are informed that aS fifties
are the only denominations known
to have been counterfeited, YOU
may release the cigars covered by
stamps of other denominations
which are regular and in the hands
of innocent holders. The cigars
can be left in the custody of the
parties from whom seized, if thev
are responsible, pending further ac-
ton.
"lnnocent holders who have pur-
chased cigars and have paid for
same, will be treated fairly, and
reasonable offers in compromise ac-
cepted. Such offers should include
payment of costs, the tax on the ci-
gars, and nominal sum as specific
penalty to be made through you to
this Office.
When stamps are undoubtedly
genuine, the cigars may be released
without delay. The distinction be-
tween genuine and counterfeit
stamps is this:
''fhe paper in the counterfeit is
much lighter than in the genuine,
and the face of Clay in the counter
felt IL much drawn, the lock of hair
on the right side of his head is very
dark in the counterfeit, in the genu
Inc, much lighter.
Among the most prominent dis.
tinctions are the diamonds and stars
in the word cigars In the genuine
they are very distinct, while in the
counterfeit they are greatly blurred
and in some letters the diamonds do
not appear at all. The shading at the
left of the stamps Is much heavier in
the counterfeit than in the genuine
stamp, due, probably, to the lighter
color of the paper.
"ln case of doubt hold the cigars
until they can be examined by an ex-
pert.
"You can compare the stamps with
any genuine SOS on boxes of cigars.
Parties owing Jacobs & Go. and
w. X. kendig for cigars purchased
should be advised not TO pay such
Sias or accounts, and you will take
steps. to attach and hold mon

GRABBERS HARD HIT.
FIFTY-FIyE CASES KNOCKED OUT
IN CULPEPER.
THE APPLICANT has TO PAY COSTS.
Judge Grimsley, of the Circuit Court,
Enjoins Further Prosecution of
Appeal.

A gentleman In this city last night from
Culpeper gave the details Of a knockout
blow which the land-grabbers of that
county seem recently TO have received.
The blow alluded to is in the form of
decision Of the Circuit Court. The effect
Of this decision, unless the case is re-
vised on appeal. Will be. 1t seems, to DIVE
the land-graDbsrs out of that judicial dis
trict and may have an effect as wide al
the bounds OF the State.
STOPPED BY THE COURT.
At the recent session Of the Cuipcpal
Circuit Court. Judge d. A. Grimsley PIE
siding. Mr. Baker, who is endeavoring
to secure a number Of tracts of land
under the delinquent land act, was en-
joined from prosecuting his applications
in ffty-fiye cases. Furthermore. decree
was entered placing upon Baker payment
of costs amounting to 500.
The bills Of the landowners in these
cases claimed that the proceedings lead
ing up to the sale were Irregular, owing
to neglect on the part of the officers 10
comply with the law. The first defence
was that If the proceedings were as de-
fectiye, as was asserted by the land
owners, no cloud upon their titles was
created by the applications 20 purchase.
The second was that the bills were de-
fective, and hence demurrable, by reason
OF the joining OF the Clerk Of the Court.
a mere ministerial officer, as a party de-
fondant; and, thirdly. that the suits
should be brought in the counties where
the applicants reside.
FAR-REACHING EFFECT.
All these positions were overruled by
the court. The result is that unless an
appeal be taken and the the lower court
reversed, all applications 10 purchase de-
linquent land in Culpeper will be aban-
doned. and they must be resold under
new motion. 1t was stated that counsel
for Mr. Baker would apply for an appeal.
There are twelve other cases similar
to these now pending in the Cuipeper Cir
cult Court. They may not be abandoned
until the result Of the appeal is seen.
