NO NEW TARIFF FOR ZONE.
Payne Law Does Not Apply to Canal
Territory.

Washington, Sept. 15.-The new
tariff law does not apply to the
Isthmian Canal Zone, according~to &
decision given by Acting ATTORNEY
General Wade H. Ellis, to the Secre-
tary Of War, and just announced. The
Canal Zone is not one Of the posses
sions" of the United States within tbs
meaning Of that term in the frs;
clause of the tariff act, says the Acting
Attorney General, but is rather a place
subject to the use, occupation, ans
control of the United States for the
construction and maintenance of a
ship canal connecting the Atlantic and
Pacific.
The effect of this decision will be to
continue the present system by which
the Panama government collects duties
on all importations into the Canal
Zone which are not for the use of the
commission of it's employees in connec-
ton with the canal construction and
on such importations as are not in
transit across the isthmus.
The Acting Attorney General ex-
plains that there is nothing in the new
tariff law to indicate that Congress in
tended to disturb the customs arrange
ments effective in the Canal Zone wher
the new tariff law was enacted.

ADVICE TO U. S. EXPORTERS.
Special Agent Butman Warns Against
Careless Packing.

New York, Sept. 15.-Although the
American exporter still has room for
improvement in the matter of packing
products for export, he has made some
progress in this line, reports Special
Agent Arthur 3. Butman, writing
from Panama. Mr.. Butman gives
some advice in the matter of packing
of export goods and the manner of
conducting correspondence with Lat
in-American countries.
Considerable loss is incurred annual
" bv the importer through careless
packing, and this is detrimental to the
development of American trade. The
Latin American buyer weighs the sat
isfactory method of packing and the
long period extended for credit in Eu-
rcpean countries against the faulty
packing and short time credits allowed
by shippers in the United States.
Business communications, says Mr..
Blltman, should be courteOusly written.
Politeness goes far with the punctili-
Gus descendants of polished Castilians.
He cites case in point, as follows:
"An importer in the city of Panama
RENTED a check of several hundred
dollars, covering the amount of his
bill, to New York house. Accom-
panying the check was a most courte-
ously written letter. This letter. when
received in New York, was stamped
paid, aud returned rs a receipt to the
sender, without further acknowledge
mcnt. The New York house in dnes-
ton is quite unlikely to receive further
orders from that South American
firm

EXPORTS TO CUBA.
Philadelphia Shipped Over 100000
During Month of August.

Philadelphia, Sept IS = Exports
valued at more than 100000 We're
shipped from this city to various
Cuban ports during the month of Au-
gust, establishing a new record, ac-
cording to figures compiled by DR.. j. J
Luis, the Cuban Consul. Although the
commerce is carried on entirely by
tramp steamers, it is rapidly increas-
ing. AS many as four tramp steam
ers have left for Cuban ports in one
day, carrying cargoes of coal, steel and
agricultural implements.
american capital in Cuba said
DR.. Luis, "is fast increasing, and to-
day no less than s141, 100000 is invested
in various enterprises, divided as fol-
lows: Railroads. $34,OOO,0O sugar and
tobacco, $6S,0O0,000; real estate, $751;
100000. and the balance in smaller in
dustries. The Bethlehem Steel Com
rany has opened and is developing
new mines near Santiago, and as it
uses tramp steamers to and from this
city for it's cargoes it's activity will
mean a big increase in the ports bust
ness in the near future.

GIRL HEROINE DROWNED.
Helps Save Four But Is Herself
Carried Over Dam.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 15.-SiX Shrek
ing, frightened children at dusk way
cred in frail rowboat on the brink
of the raging dam that stems the
Monongahela river, at Eighteenth
street, this city. Four were snatched
from death through the elf-sacriicing
heroism of Julia Roach, a 17-year-old
girl, Who went to her death in the
maclstrom beneath the dam and with
her a girl chum who lay unconscious
on the boats bottom.
Those who We're drowned were
Myrtle Ryan, 16 years old, 10 Wharton
street, and Julia Roach, II years old,

Toying the matchless day on the river
banks and watching the children pad
ding in boats on the erstwhile still
waters of the pool, watched, horror
stricken. a heroine's futile efforts to
stem the slow movement of the cookie
shell toward the Government dam.
Pluckily and with steady rise and fall
of the oars, Julia Roach fought against
the current long enough for rivermen
to approach and pick up the frightened
children, who were leaping into the
river. Then with help within a few
feet the final clutch of the river swung
the boat and the two girls to death be-
low. Myrtle Ryan's body was recov-
cred later.

POLICE SEARCH CHINATOWN.
New York Authorities Fear Outbreak
of, Another Tong War.

New York Sept 15.-Feeling that
Chinatown is on the verge of another
war of the tongs, Inspector Daily yes
terday had a house-lo-house search
made for deadly weapons, and last
night placed ar extra detail of 40 po-
licemen along Mott and Pell streets.
Every man was ready for instant and
vigorous action at the slightest sign of
an outbreak.
The shooting of Kee Gung In Mott
street or Sunday was the first act of
warfare in the revival of the old feud.
The war is between the On Leong
Tong and the Society of the Four
Brothers. which, though apparently a
new organization, is really an offshoot
of the Or Leong's old enemy. the Hip
Sing Tong. The shooting of Kee Gung
was the first open break between the
two societies.
Two members of the Four Brothers
Society, Ian Ling and Ian Shong, are
in the Tombs under indictment for
murder in the first degree. They are
accused of the killing of Bow Kun, a
girl slave, who was slashed to death
in No. II Mot street on Aug. Is.
The members OF the Four Brothers
assert that the On LIE ongS, to conceal
the real murderer of the Chinese girl,
falsely accused Ian Ling and Ian
Shong. A corcner's jury on Friday ex-
Grated the TWO men and they were
discharged, but were rearreated and
the grand jury indicted them.
Lee Wah and Long War, both cou-
sins of old Tom Lee, the leader of the
On Leongs, who are accused of shoot
ing Kee GU.1g, We're held in $4,000 bail
each yesterday by magistrate krOtel III
the Centre street court. Kee Gung,
whose injury was only 4 flesh wound
in the back, appeared against them.
He told the magistrate that Lee Wah
had shot him. Jim Gum Tom Lees
assistant, denied this, and told magis-
trate Krotel that I<ee Gung and a
highlander had paraded Mott street
looking for Tom Lee in order to kill
him. Unable to find Tom Lee, Jim
Gum said, i<ee Gung told the hired as
sassir to shoot at him, Jim Cum, and
in the fight kee Gung himself was
wounded.
In yesterdays search of houses un-
der Inspectors Days orders Detective
Brinkley led a score of policemen.
They searched every Chinese they met.
In front Of No. ia Mott street Brinkley
say Lee Mon Wing of No. IS Mott
street trying to hide a magazine revol-
yer under his blouse. In the Centre

for carrying a concealed weapon.

No. II Mott street and of those occu-
pied by the Hip Sing Tong at No. Il

MONUMENT TO VERRAZZANO,
Italians Say He First Found Hudson
River,

New York, Sept. 15.-Ground was
broken today for the foundation of a
monument to Giovanni Da Verraz-
zanaz, the Italian explorer who, his
countrymen say, discovered the Hud-
son river nearly a quarter of a CEN
fury before Hendrix Hudson. The
ceremony occurred in Battery Park,
east of the aquarium. In his address
Chevaiier Charles Barsotti, president
of the memorial committee, said:
"The ground on which this monu-
ment is to lie erected is doubtless the
same over which VerrazZano trod in
1924. After the discovery of America
by Columbus in 1892 the Cabots-John
and Sebastian--surveyed the coast of
the New World, but in 1924 Vorrazzano,
the pathfinder, came to New York and
saw the Hudson river even if he did
not explore it. To prove the facts we
have an old engraving made from an
oil painting of the Verrazzano family,
which became extinct in Florence, in
1862 Vcrrazzano's brother Jerome
made a map of his brothers discovery
in 1929, and that is still in existence.
The New York Geographical Society
has il it's possession a copper globe of
the earth made in 1547 and purchased
but few years ago, in which it shows
the Hudson river and the lands ada
cent and which is labelled on the map
"VerrazZano or Gallia." This globe was
discovered in an old Spanish convent,
and its authenticity is undoubted.
american Consul Greene, who held
a post at Florence, from 1880 to 1850,
was 4 firm believer in the claims of the
Verrazzano family and investigated
many old italian documents and has
furnished much of the data that is now
in the possession of the New York
Geographical Society and which prove
conc,usivey that Verrazzano discov-
cred the Hudson river eighty-fOu
years before the arrival of the historic
Hollander whose name the river now

GIRLS AS HIGHWAYMEN.
Operate in Oklahoma; Are of Re-
spectacle Families.

Tulsa, Okla, Sept ia band of girl
robbers, said to be members of re-
spectacle families, has been playing
the highwayman act in Tulsa for sew
eral weeks. During that time several
men have been held up and consider
able booty obtained.
James Mcdaniel and Robert Owens
are the latest victims. En- route home
late at night they were confronted by
a masked robber, who in a falsetto
voice commanded them to throw up
their hands and deliver their valuables.
They looked into the chambers of two
revolvcrs. They complied with ,the
command, and as the robber turned to
leave them her mask fell off, disclos-
ing the fact that she was a fair-haired
girl. The robber fired three shots in
the air to scare the men and made her
escape
