ter delegation to the present meeting

city can do. Atlantic City includes the
entertaining of large crowds among its
routine business affairs the same being

NEW TARIFF LAW
RAISES REVENUE

Washington, August s.-The Payne
first year a revenue greater by 5000. 900
than the sum collected in any year in
the country's history, except the banner
year 1901 according to treasury depart
ment figures issued today The second
year of the operations of the new tariff
began today.
During the first full year ending last
Saturday night, the total ordinary re-
ceipts, including customs ordinary inter
laneous. were s67S,S5o,Sf6, exceeding dis
bursements by $2o,N4,029 The ordinary
receipts were greater by s15,ooo.00o. ap-
proximately than during 1907 and the 1907
receipts exceeded those of any other year
of record by almost SEQ 100000. While
there was a deficit of s5S, 1856 in the
ordinary operations of the government
in the fiscal year ended June 80, 1909,
there was a surplus of more than $20.-
100000 in the year ended last Saturday
according to the department.
The corporation tax revenue was ST.,
600, 1884, which is only s207, 600 less than the
amount assessed. II the government were
reimbursed for the Panama canal expen-
ditures of s35, 019 during the tariff year
by proceeds of the sale of a part of the
authorized issues of Panama bonds, the
treasury working balance, it is claimed.
would be increased to $1b0 100000.
Lax methods no longer prevail at the
customs house. it is said. and to re-
Mobilization of the service and to i'm
proved morals are attributed an estimated
augmentation of S12.000,000 in revenue at
New York alone.

LIMIT SET UPON.
CRIPPEN'S MAIL

Quebec, August S.-Letters and tele-
grams addressed to Dr. H. H. Crippen
are accommodating at the provincial Jail
but he is allowed to receive and answer
only the cable messages from Arthur
Newton, his London attorney, relating to
the preparation of his defense at his ap-
preaching trial for murder.
Fully dozen letters and as many mes
sages have never reached the prisoner
because Tailor NORM has adjudged them
improper to deliver to a man in Crippen'
situation. All are from the United States
or Canada and most of them from attor-
neys. At least one or two are enclosed
in dainty square envelopes and are adj
dressed in distinctively feminine hand
writing
Inspector Dew returned today after g
sightseeing trip in central Canada. He
visited the jail today to carry Crippen 9
cable message. He did not see the pris.
oner.
Like many others, the message did moi
pass the censorship of the Jailor and its
contents have not been revealed.
During his absence the Scotland YarC
inspector was not so successful as he hat
hoped to be In preserving his incognito
and his opinion of American newspaper
men did not improve.
Mr. Dew expressed his views freely
when he found the reporters still or
watch here. Otherwise he was as non
cimnittal as ever.
For the first time since her arrest Miss
Leneve asked today for something tt
read. The jailor sent her some maya
zines. A fresh batch of books was also
sent to Crippen, who reads omnivorously
at times.

HORSE CREATES
BIG SENSATION

Cincinnati, O., August S.-Slipping
hind feet foremost into manhole that
led to a conduit, a struggling horse
tonight endangered the gas, electric
light and traction system of the down.
town section of Cincinnati for more
than an hour.
The conduit carried pipes and feed
wires and the ironclad hoofs thrashing
about among these tore the insulation
and threatened to short-circuit the
wires or communicate the electric cur
rent to the iron pipes full of gas.
The accident occurred directly in
front of the city hall, where Gray
Jim." the horse slipped on the asphal 1t
and knocked off the cap stone of the
manhole.
A score of volunteers ran to the as
sistance of the driver. but, despite tn cir
efforts. the animal slid back wards inch
by inch until he was resting on a bed
of electric wires. Alarms were sent
to the fire and police departments, tn e
electric light. gas and traction houses
and as the various wagons and repair
equipments raced to the place a crowd
that block ed the thoroughfares for sew
era1 squares gathered.
For an hour and a half the various
rescue forces worked at cross purposes
Some were for tearing open the conduit
to save the horse; others for tearing
the horse to pieces to save the con-
duit.
Finally a heavy derrick was rugged
over the manhole and the animal was
hauled out.
Although nearly choked to death in
the process, Gray jim" disdained to
ride in an ambulance and walked back
to his stable, cheered by thousands.

TOO MUCH GAMBLING
At NARRAGANSETT
Raid Is Made and Society Peo-
pie Are Caught
WAITING FOR ACTION
Those Captured in Raid and Released
Are Trembling for Fear They VIII
BE Made To Testify in
Court

Narragansett Pier r. L, August s.
| There is CONSERVATION tonight in the
higher society circles of this fashion
able summer resort because of the fear
that Constable John G. Gross, who
conducted the gambling raid at the
| Narragansett Pier club Sunday, may
make public the names of the men and
women prominent in society who were
on the premises at the time. Matrons,
personally and through emissaries,
have besought the officer all day not
to give out their names. Constable
Gross so far has complied. but, he says,
not because the ladies asked it.
ITO publish the names would give
pain and cause unnecessary embarrass-
ment," he said tonight, but IL these
people appear in court in answer to the
summons which have been served on
them 1t will then be impossible to keep
their names from the public, and there
will be a good deal of surprise when
it Is learned that prominent men and
women are concerned. And they Will
have a lot of embarra ssing questions
to answer"
Constable Cross said tonight he was
being followed by detectives whom he
believes to be in tn eemploy of the
society people against whom his ac-
ton was taken. and his is almost in fear
of his life. Although he succeeded in
securing his release when arraigned
IN court today to answer to an assault
charge, upon a technicality only, and
he is patiently awaiting the next move
against him.
There were upwards of 80 society wo-
men in the crowd gathered about the
roulette wheels and other games of
chance that today. it is asserted. were
in the clubhouse, at the time of the
action Many of them have tried to ex-
plain, the constable says, that they
had Just dropped in to the club for
lunch. after leaving the hop at the Ca
sino, but he declares he saw no signs
of any lunch, and that the majority
were gathered about the game boards
when he entered.
It became known tonight that Will
liam WINS of New York; President
Brander Mathews of Columbia and Mrs.
r. G. Dun of New York were among
the persons who were behind the raid
of the club. Mr.. WINS said in state
ment tonight: This town Is in the
throes of a gambling epidemic. which
has enveloped rich and poor alike. The
majority of the people who visited the
swell club were not summer residents
of Narragansett and Narrsgansett Pier,
but were members of automobile par
ties from New York and elsewhere.
And while they gambled at the high
toned places their chauffeurs went to
five other places which are known to
exist, and lost their money
This epidemic of gambling has en-
tirely changed the character of the
town. Property has deprecated in
value from 25 to so per cent, and the
voting population has fallen off q
per cent, all because of the gambling"

Few people can form any idea of the
awful condition of little Willie Heberger
and the worry and trouble he has given
his parents during the past few years.
His case was described as follows:
Soon after falling to sleep at night nc
would begin to roll and toss, then he
would talk In his sleep, grit and grind
his teeth and often acted as II he were
choking and, besides this, he had the
most disagreeable of all habits, bed-wet-
ting. During the day he was very ner-
vous and excitable. he would pick his
nose. bite his nails, have worn out feel
ings and his breath was awful. 1t has
been surmised that this child had worms.
