OF M
Collector Young VIII Watch Over the
B%ostocIx Aggregation.

A letter was received at the custom house
Baltimore in regard to the animals which
Director Bostock Of the Zoo recently i'm
ported into this country, and which he in
tends to bring to indianapolis. These ami
mails are TO be put in condition at the Zoo
IN this city for exhibition at the Buffalo
Pan-American exposition and consist of
two baby elephants, six lions, three tigers.
five ~leopards, six hyenas, seven bears, two
sloths, two zebras, two cassowaries, two
emus. one aoundad, and one yak. Some of
these animals are very valuable. and under
ordinary circumstances the duty on them
would amount to a large figure. The let
ter from Baltimore states that a special
ruling was made TO the effect that all arti-
cles which are intended for exhibition at
the Buffalo exposition shall be admitted to
standing that they shall be taken back to
the country from which they came within
a certain period of time. If this is not
done, duty will be collected as on all other
imported goods. Under this ruling the ami
mails imported by Bostock for exhibition at
the exposition will not be taxed, but while
confined in the Zoo at indianapolis they
will be subject to daily inspection by the
customs officer OF the port, or by such per-
son as he may designate. The animals are
expected to arrive within a few days, and
Mr.. Young and his deputies are making
arrangements to carry out their part of the
programme. Being somewhat lacking in
knowledge of some of the animals named
I'm the list. they expect to put In their spare
time studying up on natural history, and
hope that the rma gained thereby
may prove of some assistance TO them
