CUSTOMS FRAUDS
Discovered by Chicago Merchants in
New York Office.

Chicago, Aug. 16.-As result of the
recent exposure of alleged frauds in
the New York customs service several
of the big wholesale dry goods firms OF
Chicago have filed claims with the
board Of appraisers asking for sums
aggregating hundreds Of thousands of
dollars as rebates.
1t was through the watchfulness of
Chicago importers that the government
discovered a conspiracy in the New
York custom house, says the Chronicle.
Last May buyers for Chicago import
ers found that goods bought in Toxic
and shipped to the United States cost
more than the same articles could be
bought for from certain firms In New
York.
So the Chicago men got together and
instituted a quiet investigation. They
collected their evidence and filed pro-
tests with the treasury departm ent at
Washington.
The protests contained disclosures
that called for immediated action, and
government detectives were set at work
at once. The claims the Chicago mer-
chants have filed with the board of
appraisers are being considered now,
but official action probably viii not be
taken until the investigation has been
finished.

TEN PER CENT. INCREASE.
That Is About the Growth of Canada's
Population in Ten Years.

New York, Aug. ia special to the
Times from Ottawa says:
The population of the Dom inion OF
Canada, according to the census re-
turns, is 5,237. 166. an increase of 503,s27
over the census of 1891. These returns
are not authorized by the census COM
missioner, but they are understood to
be those which the department Will give
to the public.
Taken by provinces, the increases
will be as follows: Quebec. 1872. 434; On
tario, SO. 657; Manitoba, 92,212; North
west. 1890; Yukon and unorganized
district. 43,113; British Columbia, 92,-
900; maritime provinces, 1000.
In a number CT instances such prov
inces as the Yukon and the morgan
lied districts, the department has made
an estimate as the returns have not
yet been received. The result is disaP-
pointing, and the only explanation Is
that the returns for 1891 were padded.
According to the returns. Ontario will
lose about five members, and the mari
time provinces three or four
Manitoba ought to increase it's repre-
sentation by three members. and the
Northwest, including Yukon and Brit
ISL Columbia. ought to bring the rep
resentation up to about what it is now

Long and Stanley had a friendly pas
sage Of arms in the Auditorium. says
the stars report. Stanley was regularly

sitting on the platform. got In only by
chance. Stanley, who is a farmers
"1oilier," said that Long was the great
est congressman that ever happened
and next to one the best man for sen
ator in Kansas. This carried shouts for
Long, who rose and said that while it
had not come his turn to speak he
would like to call the attention of the
old soldiers to the fact that men never
know when they have enough we
have vice president who wants to be
president, United States senator from
a great state who wants to bepresident,
a splendid governor who wants to be
senator and two congressman who want
TO be senator" This caused laughter
and when Stanley resumed his talk he
remarked that he was glad that there
were only two congressman in the race:
he had understood there were three.

1T is in its possible consequence that
