The American agent for one OF the best

ported champagne recently complained to
the Treasury department that bogus
brand of imported wine, represented as the
genuine article, was being foisted on the
public at an absurdly low price. The
American agent was particularly worried
because his rival was doing a land office
business with the cheap champagne.
Secretary Shaw was appealed to to put a
stop to the fraud, it being further alleged
that the low-priced brand was being
palmed Off as an imitation of the costly
variety. Inquiry by special agents of the
Treasury department uncovered most in
genious plan of operation by the men who
were handling the cheap stuff They were
in the habit of approaching a dealer and
darkly limiting that they had some good
champagne to sell at bottom prices, due
to the fact that it had been Struggled into

with tinfoil and labels similar to the
S4-a-quart brands. 1t sells for Sl2 dozen.
The duty on imported champagne is s. a
dozen quart bottles, and the wholesalers
were getting the imitation variety at less
than the amount of duty.
The contents of a specimen bottle were
analysed by the department and found to
be sparkling cider. 1t had been imported.
