the second city is vacated as soon as the goods
are delivered, for they are immediately packed
ana shipped 10 a third cily. where they are
disposed Of
Two mems. Long and s Morrison it is
alleged, have operated very extensively in

ness transactions within a week amounting to
more than 81 900. Several merchants were,
