Cohen, and his stepfather, Isaac Cohen. Although Mrs. Cohen en- deavored to impress upon the little fel- low that she was his mamma, the boy said that he had never seen the woman before and with tears streaming down his cheeks he begged that he be per mitted to go to 506 Garden street, where, he said, his mamma and papa are vls- iting Mrs. Cohen was determined to get the boy into her custody, and he was taken by her and her husband to Andover on the 5;30 train last night without seeing the woman he believed to be his mamma although he begged for the opportunity.
 The mother of the boy, who lives in Andover, Mass, stated that after hay ing been deserted some years ago by her first husband, she placed Rufus, the youngest of her three children, in the care of MT. and Mrs. Edward Callahan of this city. The boy was then about four years of age. She was unable at- ter a short time to continue the stlpu- lated payments for board and the Cal lahans reared the child as their own. Being now in better financial circum- stances the mother forcibly reclaimed the child on the street yesterday.

tice to Porto Rico and give the Porto Ri
cans the protection Of the Constitution,
to which they were entitled in coming I'M

But when his masters. the trusts. tell him
that the island must be oppressed and out

the Constitution. he gracefully yields. In
much the same way Prince Tuan, virtual
dictator of China, assures Ii Hung Chang
that he has caused himself to be deposed
and disgraced. that being in accordance
with the plain duty" of the Empress
Dowager. in view of peace negotiations
with the credulous and altogether sapient
American Administration. But Tuan and
TIE Hsi, at the same time, proceed to
issue secret edicts for the mobilization of
the Chinese army-eonveniently called
Boxers for diplomatic purposes-and we
are treated today to the spectacle of fifty
thousand Boxers gathering near Pekin
for an attempt to retake it from the
allies.
There is not the slightest reason why
two courts with so much in common in
the matter OF their sincerity and policy
should not understand each other. All
the Empress Dowager wants is to have

OPIUM SEIZED IN HAVANA.
The Drug Found in Cans Supposed to
Contain Sausages

The War Department has received from
Havana report telling of the seizure last
weeks of large consignment of contra
band goods. Frank Cairn. Chief of the
Bureau of Special Agents. captured TWEEN
ty-three cases, each containing three doz-
en- cans labeled sausages, but filled with
opium. The seizure is valued at from
$4,000 to $4,000. its net weight being
1.21s kilos. Colonel Bliss suspected that
opium was being smuggled into Cuba and
he gave directions to the agents to dis
cover the smugglers. A special agent was
sent to Liverpool to find the starting point
of the goods. He learned that It came from
Santander. Spain All shipments from Liv-
erpool were watched.
1t was noticed that Senior Antonio Y
Bastenechea, of Santander, Spain, and
agent of the line between Liverpool, Spain,
and Cuba, was a heavy shipper of goods to
Havana. When the Santanderno. of this
line, arrived in port last week Mr.. Cairns
was on hand and watched her unloading
When the shipment Of supposed sausages
had been deposited on the wharf he insist
ed that case be opened. II was then
found that the cases contained fresh Opium
gum. The other cases were also opened
with a similar result
Colonel Bliss considers this the most i'm
portant find of the custom officers in Cuba.
The usual importation into Havana is
about 1000 kilos per month, the duty on
which amounts to about Sc 900.

BRAzIL's MONEY PANIC.
Depression Due to the Retirement of
10000 900 I'm Paper Currency.

NEW YORK, Oct. IA cable despatch
received here today by an export firm,
from Rio de Janeiro, announces the fail
ure of two more Brazilian banks. They
are the Banco Industrial and Mercantil,
of Santos, and the Banco de Para. 1t is
believed that the suspension of these two
institutions was caused by the embarrass-
ment of the Banco da Republica, of Rio,
which was announced two weeks ago. Ac-
cording to the same source tie Govern
inent c. Brazil has taken charge of the
affairs of the Banco da Republica- Some
of the bondholders and depositors are
Americans.
Merchants here doing business with
Brazil cannot account for the deplorable
financial condition there. Some attribute
the commercial stagnation TO the sudden
withdrawal from circulation of about si0.-
600 900 in paper money which the Gov
eminent destroyed without replacing it
with other money. The whole issue of
paper money by the Government of Colom-
bia has been stopped by the order of
President Senior J. NJ. Marroquin. Until
the recent overthrow of President San
