the exposure and be taken slightly out
of focus, SO as not to appear too cor
poreal.
Should, however, the sitter be of an
other kind. anxious to find out how II
is done and on the qui vive for any
practices of deception, he might turn
round suddenly and detect the LITTLE hocus
pocus. In such case the medium must
be prepared with another and somewhat
more ingenious method The ghostiy
image can be prepared upon the plate
either before or after the exposure of the
sitter. The method is about as follows:
In darkened room the draped figure to
represent the spirit is posed in as spirit
like an attitude as possible in front of a
dark background with a suitable mag
nesium or other tight arrangement
thrown upon the figure which is then
focused in the naturalistic style; or, bet
ter still, fine piece of muslin gauze is
placed close to the lens, which gives a
hazy, indistinct appearance to the image
The exposure is made and the. latent
image remains upon the sensitized plate,
which Is again used to photograph the
sitter. Upon developing, two images are
obtained, the spirit and the figure of
the sitter. The ghost should be as in
olstlnct as possible as IL will then be
less easy for the subject to dispute the
statement that It is the true spirit form
OF some dead and gone relative or friend
Some amount of discretion in this part
OF the performance is necessary, l i'm

THE ALLEGED SILK FRAUDS.
Action Being Taken by the
New York Officials.

1t was stated at the Treasury Depart
ment yesterday that George r. Bidwell.
collector of the port of New York, has
taken action against one of the importing
firms involved in the frauds or irregu-
larities in the Importation Of silks which
were discovered by Appraiser Wilbur F.
Wakeman. After investigating the case,
Collector Bidwell instructed Dudley F. P.
Phelps, of the law division Of the New
York custom house, to institute proceed
ings In the matter of fifteen cases of
japanese ;slks imported by certain New
York firm. 1t is also stated that the
goods in the appraisers stores yesterday
were to be seized on the charge that the
greater rart of them were heavier than
was set forth in the invoice.
The status of the silk importation affair
was stated by an official of the New
York custom house as follows:
AT present all that is before the col
lector is the actual weight of the silks in
question and the weights set forth in the
two invoices that were presented when
they were entered. Appraiser Wakeman
made a return in relation TO this partcu-
lar importation of Japanese silk, showing
an excess in weight, and that the weights
set forth in the invoice Were not correct
The importers said they could not under
stand the discrepancy. as the goods came
through their regular agencies. They were
given up to the appraiser in their original
packages. They contended that there
must be a mistake.
On receipt OF the appraisers return
the collector, who would, under his bond
be responsible if he made seizure that
he could not sustain. went to the APP
praisers stores, and personally superin-
tended the weighing of the silk in the fif-
teen cases. He verified the correctne IS
of the appraisers return. In two of the
cases the weight of the goods pond
ed to the invoice weights. In the thirteen
other cases the actual weights were in
excess Of the invoice weights
Neither the question of value nor of
classification, il is said is before the col
lector. The representative of the firm
has said that he is certain there was a
mistake In regard to analysis of the
goods. The collector went to the APP
praiser's stores at the instance of the i'm
porters, and has now only to act under
the law and seize the goods.
Neither Collector Bidwell nor APP
praiser Wakeman would admit or deny
that other irregularities had been dis
covered and that other seizures would be
made. Mr.-Wakeman said that the exam
ination of silk invoices would continue
and that he would make returns of re
suits to the collector. He added that
there were opportunities for fraud in the
items of value, classification and weight
that should have had the attention of the
assistant appraiser.
In relation to the absence of Charles c.
Browne, who was silk examiner. but was
transferred to he dock department. APP
praiser Wakeman said that he had not
reported for duty and that he did not
know where hi was. There are no
charges against Mr.. Browne, he added.

A LONG DEBATE EXPECTED.
A Treaty Which May Bring Up the
Question of imperialism.

Opposition to the imperialistic policy OF
The Administration is expected tc find ex-
preston in the Senate when Senator
Lodge, Acting Chairman Of the Committee
on Foreign Relations. again calls up the
treaty ratifying the proposed purchase of
the islands of Cagayan. sulu, and sibutu.
for which under treaty with Spain this
Government agrees to pay the amount OF
S100, GOO.
Just before the holidays Mr.. Lodge made
an unsuccessful effort to have this treaty
ratified He was opposed by Senator Ba-
con, Democratic member of the Committee
on Foreign Relations. and by Mr.. Hoar,
who, although not member of the COM
mittee, is one of the most influential mem
bers of the Senate. Mr.. Hoar demanded
that time be given to investigate the
treaty. and It went over until after the
holidays as a result of the point he had
made.
The treaty will probably be ratified, but
there are indications that such a result
can only be secured after a prolonged dis
cussion and after numerous speeches by
Senators who have arrayed themselves
against the imperialistic policy of the
Administration These Senators include
not only Democrats but Republicans of
prominence. The matter promises to open
up anew the whole field of discussion and
it would not be surprising to those Sena-
tors urging the ratification OF the treaty

AN EQUAL SUFFRAGE TEST CASE
A Refusal to Pay the Taxes on the
Anthony Home.

ROCHESTER, n. Y, Jan. 1.-The wo-
man suffragists Of this State. under the
leadership of Susan B. Anthony, have de-
termined to open the twentieth century
with a battle on the lines Of no taxation
without representation.
Today Mary S. Anthony, sister of Susan
b. Anthony, and the President OF the local
Political Equality Club, served notice
upon County Treasurer John B. Hamilton
that she should dTefuse to pay the county
taxes assessed against the Anthony Home.
She alleges in her notice that she is a
citizen OF sound mind, has never been con-
victed of any crime, and that the right OF
suffrage has been uniawfully denied to her.
She bases her claims on the theory that
raXation without representation is unlaw-
ful and tyrannical. and notifies the treas
urer that if she is forced TO pay the taxes
in order to protect her property or to save
the title she shall do so under protest and
reserve the right to institute an action
for its recovery. together with suitable
DAMAGES
