BraziI's New revenue Law,

The new revenue law of Brazil, which
went into effect on the 1st of the year,
very much affects a number of staples of
Importance to American producers. I'M
poT.ant administrative changes are also
made In the existing law, and Consul Fur
Miss at Bahia has supplied these to the
State Department. A remarkable provi-
sion of the law is the extensive power con-
ferred upon the president. For instance
he may, briefly stated, do as he pleases
with the government railroads, even leas-
ing or selling them. He may impose DIFF
ferential tariffs to secure concessions for
Brazilian produce. He is also authorized
to impose a special duty on shipping to
meet harbor improvements, to provide for
the inspection of insurance companies and
lease the monazite sands territory Other
legislation requires customs dues to be
paid at least % per cent in gold instead
of 10 per cent, as at present, and makes
considerable important changes in the ship
ping relations.
British Honduras has also made consid-
cradle changes in the tariff, as reported by
Consul Avery from Belize. The new tarifr
reduces the duties on articles not specified
from II 12 to 10 per cent, and slightly in
creases some specific duties. Commercial
travellers are taxed $40 per annum instead
of IS.

MIR. LENTz's WITHHELD SPEECH.
Party Fight I'm the House YeAterday
Over Spenker's Action.


In the House yesterday afternoon Mr.
Lentz Of Ohio. democrat. rising to a ques-
tlon OF privilege. alleged that a speech he
had handed to the public printer, under
general leave to print, had been withheld
from the Record, and had been turned over
10 Gen. Grosvenor of Ohio by the Speaker.
The nature of the speech was not deveI-
|oped during the events that followed, but
II was learned that it was an attack upon
he was elected to the Senate.
The Speaker explained that It had been
represented to him that the speech violated
the privileges Of the House and he had d.
rected that 1t be withheld until he could
Hook over 1t. Pressure of business had pre-
vented him from doing so, however, and
|only twenty minutes before, he said, he
bad directed that the speech go into the
Record, believing that If 1t contained any
thing offensive II could be stricken out
by the House later.
Several points of order were made by re-
|publicans, but the Speaker declined to side
track the issue in that way, holding, how
lever, that to proceed a proposition of some
kind must be before the House. Thereupon
Mr.. Richardson, the democratic leader, Of
|fered a resolution declaring that the
Speaker had no right to withhold speeches
Against this the question of consideration
was raised by Mr.. Lacey, and by strict
party vote the House decided not to con-
|sider Ii.
Amid excitement and confusion Mr. Rich
hrdson offered another resolution, condemn
ling the Speakers action In terms and di-
recting that the speech be delivered
forthwith" TO the public printer. Again

The War Department finds this Island OF
Manhattan it's most fruitful field for re-
cruiting the regular army. Alert veterans
of the service are engaged at the present
time in enrolling recruits for the ten new
regiments recently authorized by Congress
Last year one of the three local stations
that at the head of the Bowery, enrolled
alone nearly enough men for two complete
regiments, almost twice as many as any
other city in the Union.
sMOrphine Mikes" New Industry.
A new industry has recently come to
light and it's manager is one Michael Nc
Guire, commonly known as Morphine
Mike" A short time ago MCGUIRE appeared
in the Tenderloin as a peddler OF shoe
strings and collar buttons. Strangely
enough, he was seen only at night His
favorite ground was along the cross streets
between Broadway and 9th avenue, from
23d to 42d street. His shoestrings he car
ried on his arm and the collar buttons IN
black leather case. This was divided into
compartments About one Of these clung
a peculiar pungent odor. 1t was the con-
tents of this compartment that earned for
Mcclure the sobriquet Of morphine Mike"
Back Of little leather door, fastened with
a tin lock, were carefully packed walls and
boxes Of opium, morphine and cocaine and
fine assortment Of hypodermc syringes.
MCGUIRE had not been in the district more
than a week before he was doing a -four
ishing business. He has two sets of Gus
toners. One set, the weather. Of the two
he saw at their homes, where he sold his
drugs at a slight increase over the regular
price. In this way men and women-there
were many women among his customers
could obtain morphine or opium without
the risk of exposure. The second, the
poorer class, were met in the dark alleys.
They had not cash enough to buy a vial of
morphine, so Morphine Mike" sold it at so
much dose. In meeting these customers
Mcclure would walk slowly through one
of the darker cross streets until he saw
some nerve-racked patient in the shadow
of an alley. At signal he would approach,
and, hastily producing the needle, would give
hypodermic injection in the arm or shoul
der. The price of the injection varied with
the amount of morphine used. Usually 10
cents was the amount paid. Mcclure de-
manded cash in advance, and no amount
Of coaxing could make him bring out the
needle until the sum had been pocketed In
administering cocaine Mcclure used the
customary spray, for which he had a fixed
price. Two applications, If taken within
five minutes, could be produced at reduc-
ton. If the police are accurately informed,
Mcclure made enough money in two years
to purchase several lots in the Bronx and
to maintain comfortable home.
