,ha, was there. Ttey were too busy 0 rotice ne much.
 Say, 1t WAS the most Interesting thing that I ever saw. ! am coming up here again just to see t and to see the bands.
 How do I know they didn't get onto me Because they didn't pay any at tention to me. They just showed me around &s Ii I were q passenger. I loa't think that anyone took the trou- ",A to notice tbat I was ii the way. Passengers and people alike ran by and over me in the most delightful fashion that you ever saw. IL save me . good chance.
 Do they say tlsat | was not up there 2 Well I was. and what is more, I saw all that happened. Nc. I have nothing tn e1E about my observations''
 Here MT. Shaw raised himself upon his toes and locked into a trunk that ] rel-faCed inspector was jsbbing his long arms into. IL was the trunk Of Mrs. J. 4. A. TaUchel of Baltimore and she vas expostUlatinS.
 Mrs. FeUchel had a consular invoice and was urging that she be allowed to pay the duty on the pier. The goods had been sworn to as worth S60e by the salesman on the ether side.
 Well have to send them to the storehouse," said the inspector
 But that will take three weeks. need them at home. I am ready to pay ooW if you can tell ne how rluch''
 The inspector ran his arm into the trunk and turned over the goods IIe shool, his head. An appraiser stood rear by. The secretary started for ward, caught himself and turned on his heel. He came back to the re- porter.
 As a matter of fact. the inspectors at the Cunard line early in the day did not know him. and did rot suspect that ha was watching them. But when he entered the American line pier at o'cl0ck it Was di1erert. That was the time that he was hoodwinked, for he persisted til the last that TO one was onto him, when, as a matter of fact, the inspectors were all watching him from the corners of their eyes.
 'They are looking for Kate Carew's 'i7,arays O. r1e that WAS printed in the New York NoIl1 and St. Louis Post Dispatch said 2.r. Shaw, with a rhucl.le. There is . smart girl The ~fol.0 sae wrote about my wife was the finest delineation of character ever
 
 taoat Mrs S..=W, and showed the world what a sweet and charming lady she s, but her picture Of my wife didn't look any n.ore ike her than 1 do. Ia! aa Bat l have heard more about that writeup she gave me than anything else til:;r has happened. Oh, yes, shes . bright girl
 Here the secretary broke of short and chased a party Of women who were storming at the heels O. q frightened ookin9 inspector. The inspector saw AIr. Shaw join the group and his jaw fell He went very delicately about the opening ct the trunk
 'They say you surprised and shocked Wall street by setting down so early this morning." suggested the reporter.
 Why, that cant be true" said he. - didn't get down there till after O clock
 MT. Shaw utterly refused to express any opinion as to how the inspection of baggage impressed him. He talked with inspectors, travellers and porters in the most ordinary and democratic fashion. Until just before he departed ha really thought that none of the off cials knew him. though his every movement gras watched.
 Great was his surprise when an ap- praiser whose fiery red hair probably gave him more courage than the others storde up to him and said:
 Well, Elr. Secretary, what do you think of the way We do it?'
 ''Sh-h-h, soft, speak easy. They are not onto it. How did you know me-"
 By your picture, sir" said the off, oi9i.
 Wan streets chief comment had in it q long dirk for MT. Shaw's predeces- sors. Said one broker: Well, Shaw's q secretary of the treasury for whom q banquet will not be necessary every time he comes to town
