SMUGGLING on TANK BOATS.
Sumatra Tobacco Business ut STANDARD
On's Lonely BayOnne Wharves.


The seizure of twenty seven bales OF
Sumatra tobacco In a house in Bayonne
on Saturday has brought to light the ex-
tensive smuggling Of tobacco that has
been going ON in connection with the tramp
steamers that ply to the Standard Oil piers.
The tobacco seized on Saturday had been
taken to the house in Bayonne from the Ger7
man tank Diamant. in from Antwerp. It
Is known by the customs officers that IN
nearly SCORE OF cases attempts, many OF
them successful. have been made to smug-
gle in tobacco on the tanks plying between
Bayonne and foreign ports.
The tobacco seized on Saturday was worth
about $1,000. The woman in whose pos
session it was found is believed to have
been implicated in previous smuggling
exploits. The quantity Of tobacco was SO
largo that the authorities believe that the
master OF the vessel should have been
aware of its importation. Under the stat.
utes, the Collector may institute proceed
ings against the master for the recovery
of a fine equal to the appraised value OF
the goods, together with penalty of 500
for having landed the goods. The authori-
ties may also hold the vessel itself for tho
rayment of the penalties. On previous
occasion the Standard Oil Company was
informed, and promised to do everything
in it's power to prevent further smu ggling.
The Standard Oil works at Bayonne
are isolated, and most Of the smuggled
goods have been taken OIL the tank boats
at night In small boats. The tanks conse
in with manifest showing ballast only.
and Il has been difficult for the authorities
to ret at the real state Of affairs. A de-
ternined effort is to be made to break up
the nractise.

REPUDIArEs v. .. M'DowELL.
Barthoidt SAys Hs Has No Authority 70
Represent Interplr lia noatary Uai0n.

WASHINGTON, July 28.-The operations Of
William O. Mcdowell Of New York. who has
represented himself as the special envoy"
Of the Interparliamentary Union for the
Promotion Of Arbitration. has created much
reoent comment. A letter has been received
here from Representative Richard Bartholdt,
president OF the uaion. now In Germany.
In which he absolutely repudiates Mcdowell.
Mcdowell used stationery which indicated
that no was the authorized representative
OF the union and which read Special Envoy
to the National Parliaments and Congresses
OF the World He proposed to organize .
Canadlan and South American party to
leave New York on Aug. 10 and 60 abroad
to the peace parliament. He also proposed
to have q reception in New York. at which
President Roosevelt, Gov Higgins and Mayor
Mcclellan would speak. A letter addressed
to Mr.. Bartholdt from Georgeville, Canada
said that Mr.. Mcdowell claimed to repre-
sent Mr.. Bartholdt. In the letter received
to-day from Mr.. Bartholdt he says:
@William o. Mcdowell OF New York Is
posing as an agent or special envoy as
he styles himself, Of the Interparliamentary
Union. When last year the foreign psrlia;
nentarians met In New York he represented
himself as a delegate OF American peaee
societies and was permitted to make the
trip through the country with that distin-
guished party. Ever since that time he
has been trying to secure Official connection,
with the 1nterparliamentary Union, and
upon the strength Of letter from the
general secretary, DR.. Cobalt Of Berne,
6witzerland, he actually addressed all the
foreign Parliaments, urging their members
TO join the union. In my, capacity as presi-
dent OF the union repudiated pr. Gobat's
letter, instead Of indorsing y. as Mr.
our organization is composed exclusively
OF members Of national legislative bodies
and could neither engage the services OF
nor delegate its functions to Others.
Mcdowell apparently acquiesced IN
my decision, but soop had letterheads OF
the union printed, giving 81 Liberty street,
self special envoy BY means Of the
letterheads he addressed members of our
Congress and Of the Canadian Parliament.
announcing arrangements for public re-
cep ion to be accorded the American dele
gaIes in New York before their departure
fered in q most annoying way with ar
rangements already made officially by
the proper representatives OF the organi-
zation. What is worse, he solicited sub.
soriptions in Boston, as ] am informed
upon unqueetioned authority. for SC, So
terheads already referred to. This ex..
hausted my patience for a man whom had
believed to he an honest enthusiast in the
cause OF peace. For the protection OF the
organization which l represent. as we'll as
those Mcdowell has addressed. l am obliged
ment to the newspapers. ! have already
stated in a cablegram to New York that
Mcdowell has no authority whatever to
represent the Interpariiamentary Union.

NELSON STILL
HIGH IN FLESH
Dane Finds 1t Difficult
to Get Below 40
Pounds at This Time
DATE FINALLY NAMED
Rival Lightweights Will
Don the Gloves ON the
Last Day. of the Month

The date OF the Nelson fight
has finally been selected by the officials
of the Hayes Valley Athletic Club.
The two lightweights will meet in
Woodward's Pavalion on the last day
of this month. Nelson is still over
weight, but once the flesh commences
to come off it will not take long for
him to reach the 130-pound mark
He is working like a beaver at
Smiling Metzner's tavern, Larkspur.
The Dane has conditioned himself at
Larkspur for his last four fights, and
he thinks Marin County is the only
place to train. Heretofore he has had
an easy time, but on this occasion he
seems to stick at the 140-pound mark
Much hard road work has been in
dulged in, but the surplus flesh is slow
in disappearing.
The Question of making 1So pounds
does not seem to worry Bat, however.
and he promises to be under the notch
when he mounts the scales on the
2Sth.
He is the picture of health, but looks
rather heavy. He is still glutton for
work and hardly rests minute. Yes
terday morning he hit the road for
twelve miles. and after brisk rub
down took walk in Baltimore canyon
was spent in the gymnasium He did
his usual stunts, wrestled with Raw
hide Kelly and boxed five fast rounds
each with Fred Landers and Bill Ben
ner A large crowd was on hand to
watch him perform.
Young Corbett is gradually rounding
into form at Billy Shannon's villa
under the watchful eyes of Trainer
Frank Mcdonald.
The little fellow has been steadily
grinding for nearly two months, and
his present condition is a just reward
for his hard labor. Plenty of road
work, boxing, plain food and regular
hours have seemingly brought back
the Young Corbett of old. He has clear
eyes, a healthy glow of the skin and
strong desire TO work Corbett, like
frankie Neil. is continually on the go,
and Frank Mcdonald has lost weight
worrying for fear some accident may
befall his protege.
Since Joe Cans arrival at the camp
Corbett has been kept busy in the
gymnasium, as the dusky champion
loves to don the mits.
Joe is taller than Corbett and has
longer reach, but the little fellow
wades in and the pair box many hard
rounds.
Corbett changed his programme yes
terday indulging only in road work
Ten miles over the hills constituted his
days work To-day boxing will be re-
newed Corbett is said to weigh about
1856 pounds. He expects to touch 12S
pounds some time during his training.
