CUSTOMS OFFICIALS
AFTER SHIP OWNERS.

Pensacola, Fla, Aug. 19.-United
States custom officials here are hot
after all vessels plying from this port
which are not complying with the fed
eral marine laws, and although the in
spectors have just begun work. five
vessels have been detained and fines
assessed against them amounting to a
total of 81 900.
The vessels so far fined are all en-
gagged in the fishing trade, and 1t is
claimed that not one-third of all the
schooners engaged in this business are
complying with the regulations, and
more detentions and fines are antici-
pated.
The five vessels against which fines
have been assessed are as follows:
The schooner Lille Belle, owned by e.
II. Jernigan; the schooner Haze, owned
by the Warren Fish Company; the
schooner Francis Marjorie, owned by
Mrs. Francis Maribello; the schooner
Florida, owned by Il. Il. Saunders
e. Co., and the schooner Mary f..
Hoxie, owned by T.. e. Saunders &
Co.
The vessels violated the law which
requires that fog horns and signal
bells be kept on board at all times,
and that while under way the fog
horn shall be sounded at stated inter-
walls, and while at anchor the signal
bell shall be in use. Lieut.. Bryan
of the United States revenue cutter,
inspected the five vessels and found
none Of this equipment on board.

and the Plates Captured-Tw0
Pressmen of "a Printing Concern
Used the Plant at Night in Their
OperatiOns-OnIy $40 BILLS Made.
Atlanta. Aug. 2O.-Four of a gang of
counterfeiters. who have been con-
Quoting extensive operations here,
have just been arrested as the
result of the work of Secret
Service Agent j. M. Wright,
and other arrests are expected to fol-
low. Along with the four counterfeit
ers the secret service men captured
nearly 100000 in counterfeit $40 bills
and several we'll made plates which
they had in their possession. The men
arrested are o. L. McMichael and c.
W. Rebb, pressmen for the Lahatte
Printing Company in this city; ]. N.
Little, who lives just outside of At
lanta, and P. S. Coffey of Upson coun-
", an ex-postmaster. The other man
who furnished the plates with which
the counterfeit bills We're printed.
In Atlanta and St. Louis.
Much of the counterfeit money is
though to have been f1oated here and
in ST. Louis. The plates were made in
st. Louis and were forwarded to COT
fey. Coffey, in turn, sent them to Lit
tie, who turned them over to Nc
Michael and Rebb. These two had
key to the office of the Lahatte Print
ing Company and would go there at
night after the office had closed and
turn out the bogus bills by the hun
bred Much of the money was then
forwarded to st. Louis, while some of
It was put into circulation.
Mr.. Lahatte knew nothing of the
workings of the gang and was sur
prised when informed of it by the Sc
cret service agents. He gave them ev-
cry assistance possible in working out
the affair.
The members of the gang have all
confessed and nothing remains but to
get the other man, who has been work
ing the St. Louis end of it.
Confession of RSbb.
Rebb was arrested and taken to the
office Of United States Inspector
James n. Wright late yesterday. He
there confessed his guilt and his infor-
nation led to the arrest of the others.
From them it was learned where the
money that had not been passed had
been hid, and officers recovered $4,000
in cigar box in the Lahatte print
ing shop, 900 at Little's house, about
$4,000 in an alley in the center of the
city, besides smaller sums that were
found on the men themselves.
The bills, it is reported, are fairly
good, sufficiently so to have been ac-
cepted by a number of business houses,
including one bank in this city.
All the men were brought together
to-day and admitted their guilt. The
inspector. in a statement this after
noon, said that Little and Coffey met
an engraver, who is believed to have
lived here, but who now has moved to
St. Louis. From him they bought the
plates for $500 each. paying one half.
Four plates were used, one for the
front of the bill, one for the back, one
for printing the numbers and the
fourth for printing the seal.

JUST ONE DAY
Free from the Slugger Brought Out
a Fact.

Free from the Slugger Brought Out
Fact.
During the time 1 was a coffee
drinker," says an Iowa woman, Il was
nervous, had spells with my heart,
smothering spells, headache, stomach
trouble, liver and kidney trouble.
did not know for years what made me
have those spells. 1 would frequently
sink away as though my last hour had
come.
For 81 years I suffered thus and
used bottles of medicines enough to
set up a drug store-capsules and
pills and everything 1 heard of.
Spent lots of money, but I was sick
nearly all the time. Sometimes 1 was
so nervous l could not hold plate
in my hands; and other times I
thought I would surely die sitting at
the table.
This went on until about two years
ago when one day 1 did not use any
coffee and noticed l was not so nerv-
Gus and told my husband about it.
He had been telling me that it might
be the coffee, but 1 said No, have
been drinking coffee all my life and it
cannot be- But after this I thought
! would try and do without it and
drink hot water. I did this for sew
eral days, but got tired of the hot
water and went to drinking coHee,
and as soon as l began coffee again
was nervous again. This proved that
it was the coffee that caused my
troubles.
I'VE had tried Postum but had not
made it right and did not like it. but
now I decided to give it another trial
so 1 read the directions on the pack
age carefully and made it after these
directions and it was simply delicious,
so we quit coffee for good, and the re-
suits are wonderful Before I could
not sleep. but now I go to bed and
sleep sound, am not a bit nervous
now, but work hard and can walk
miles. Nervous headaches are gone,
my heart does not bother me any
more like it did and l don't have any
of the smothering spells and would
YOU believe it? l am getting fat. We
drink Postum now and nothing else,
and even my husbands headaches
have disappeared; we both sleep
sound and healthy now and that's a
blessing" Name given by Postum

last year, and the total railroad and

AS the expenses of the state for 1904
VIII be practically the same as for last
year, the Controller General thinks the
tax rate this year can be put at $3.50
on each $1,000, reduction of 20 cents,
as compared with last year. The Gov
ernor and Controller General will fix
the tax rate next Wednesday. Five
counties have failed to send their di
gests up to the present time: Rich
mond, Lee, Coffee. Morgan and Lump
kin. Controller General Wright has
written the tax collectors of these
counties that unless the digests are
received by Wednesday they will for
fert all of their commissions for this
year.
