CASE FOR TARIFF BOARD
GLOVE LEATHER SAID TO HAVE
BEEN UNDERVALUED.
Appraisements of Duty at Port of
New York Will be In
vestigated.

Alleged differentiation of certain glove
leather imported at the port of New York
is to be investigated by the tariff board.
This is to be done at the request of the
Secretary of the Treasury.
Customs authorities are not altogether
satisfied with some appraisements of
glove leather that have been made, and
are anxious to determine whether such
imports are paying all the duty contem-
plated by the law. Some suggestions
have come to them having in view the
grading of leather in Europe before it Is
exported to the United States, and these
are now under consideration, in the ex-
pectation that they may be of assist
ance in properly assessing duty.
Glove leather now pays duty of 20 per
cent ad valorem.
Tariff Boards First Case.
This is the first case referred by the
Treasury Department to the tariff board,
the general object of which is to assist
the President and other officers of the
government in the administration of the
customs laws.
Treasury officials say the inquiry Is
along the general line of obtaining &C.
curate Information as to the correctness
of appraisements of duty made on glove
leather imports. and not with any immi-
nent idea of disclosing criminal practices.

reported for any of the previous five
years." says the report. "A'l the items
in the grand total, with the exception of
picked beef and pork, show large de-
clines as compared with the figures for
the earlier years.
THE largest relative losses since 1905
appear under the head of canned meats,
the loss amounting TO about 70 per cent,
and Of lard, the shipments of which de-
clined about 50 per cent since that year.
The report also shows that grain re-

OLD SIDEWALK FOUNDA-
TIONS.
Engineer Earl Says They Do Not
Amount to Anything.

Engineer Ralph d. Earl, jr., came
over to Palisade July 70 in response
to several property owners who
thought that as the stone foundations
were being utilized by the contractors
who are laying cement sidewalks an
allowance ought to be made The
work OF excavating did not have to
be done for laying new foundations
i'll many places, for the top layer Of
cement, they argued, and the old
sidewalks represented an asset.
Engineer Earl heard the complaint,
but said the contractors did not get
paid for excavations they did not
make, but that the old sidewalk foun-
dations represented so much gain to
them as it only equalized the other
portions of the streets where the
heavier work, such as blasting, had to
be done. The bids were based on the
general character of the work as a
whole. Engineer Earl said that if
any one preferred to lay his own side
walks and use the old foundations
he could do so, provided he followed
the specifications of the ordinance
He said the old foundations didn't
represent very much anyway. He
was very courteous i'll dealing with
the matter.

The young lady boarded at the home
Of E. A. Noone, but as the Noon ta1nily
were away for a few days she was to
stay at the h.Npe OF u neighbor. AS the
young lady u'd not appear 1T supper
time nor later The lady sent one OF the
body to the schoolhouse to see II she
was still there. and upon his entrance
to the building discovered the young
lady with her arms tied behind her and
tied to a school seat. He at once
called help and the girl was released.
She says she remained In tho school
house to write a letter home and that
about o'clock some one Knocked on
the back door and she got up to re-
spond, thinking 1t WAC some OF the
boys who had been playing in the
school yard. When she opened the door
she was seized by a masked man and

her mouth and both men then tied her
arms behind her and tied her to a seat,
where she was found at O'Clock. The

made their escape.
The entire affairs seems TO be very

her with her own handkerchief and
towels found in the school room. and
tied her with a rope used by the stu
