inston For this reason very little n-
 formation is given out to the public con-
 corning their activities. When a ''case' is made, facts are usually reported to the central office in the treasury building and prosecution in the federal courts is undertaken On some of these cases operatives spend months of work before an arrest is made often living in the neighborhood where illicit distlllng is thought to thrive, under an assumed char acter.
 At different times the secret service is called in to aid other departments. i During the land fraud investigation by the department of interior certain secret service men were temporarily loaned to the department for the pur- pose of working up cases against ai- legged land grabbers, in conjunction with special agents of that department.
 The result has been that many land
 sharks" were sent to prison, while a
 number of criminal prosecutions are still pending in the west.
 Through the efforts of former Secret
 Service Agent Burns, who was identi-
 fled with some of the larger land fraud cases, senators and representatives of
 the federal legislature were implicated
 in the frauds and prosecuted.
 The department of justice, with it's
 special agents has recently investi-
 gated conditions in the Burley tobacco
 districts and peonage cases in Texas
 and other southern states. Interesting
 reports that have not yet been made
 public, have been received by Attorney General Wickersham from these men,
 and will form the nucleus, it Is said, of
 a number of prosecutions to be brought in the federal courts.
 In the f3urley tobacco districts, where a number of agents were located. passing themselves off as horse dealers
 or other characters, information con- corning the activities of a number of alleged might riders" was obtained. In
 some instances arrests were made. but as soon as the news was made public that law officers were invading that
 district it was necessary for the spe- cial agent to leave in haste if whole skin was to be maintained. In the case of Special Agent Hoagland, who was detailed in a certain part of this district, his life, he says, wouldn't have been worth two cents in Chinese money after the 'nighters" learned his identity He was warned in time however, by fellow agent from an ad- joining district and they left imme diately. His report, which has been

 The prosecution of the national pack ing house industries by the federal gov ernment is the outcome of information received by the department, who have been Investigating conditions there for the past three years. Meat inspection resulted in the discovery that certain interests in Chicago were offering for sale, as edible products, the refuse col lected from large packing house plants and from open waterways in and around the slaughtering houses.
 The department of commerce and labor maintains large force of inspectors and agents whose work prevents the opera tion of certain criminal practices. In- migration agents are constantly on the watch at various seaport towns and other points of entry to see that citizens of other countries seeking entry into the United States meet the requirements of the immigration laws before admission is granted. The detection of those who att tempt to gain entrance into the United States. at times, is no easy matter so immigrant inspectors assert. f

 THE PEACE MAKER Is the Latest Gossip in Diplo-
 matic Circles at Paris RECOVER FROM FLOOD France Has No Idea of Engaging in Tariff War With United States
 and It Is Believed There Will Be None

Paris, February 1e.-(Special.) )--Theo- dore Roosevelt, peace maker! That's the latest gossip in diplomatic circles in Paris. The story goes that when the former President emerges from the Afri- can hunting grounds and strikes Europe he will be a quiet, but it is hoped and believed an effective apostle of peace. MT. Roosevelt is to make speeches in Paris, Berlin and London President Fallieres, King Edward and Kaiser Will liam-these monarchs and potentates will show every possible attention to their distinguished guest which can do the greatest honor to him and the country he represents.
 It is the purpose of MT. Roosevelt, so my diplomatic informant tells me, to take advantage of the situation to bring about, If not a complete understanding, at least more cordial relations between these three great countries and set the ball rolling which it is hoped will lead to an agreement looking to the limitation of ornaments and the bringing about of uni- versal peace.
 When it was suggested that there was
 
 of an unofficial citizen of another coun- try.even so distinguished q one as MT. Roosevelt, my informant smiled and said: Perhaps no other man living could or would do anything of the sort. You must remember that MT. Roosevelt's whole career is one of shattered prece- dents. He never has been bound by GUS tom and probably never will be. The manner in which he brought Japan and Russia together is case in point His interference then was against all dipo- matfc usage. The man is so thoroughly honest and sincere and so perfectly fear less when he has an object in view which he believes is for the good of humanity that he can do things which no ordinary statesman or diplomat would ever con- slider. He is the one man who has a chance to bring Germany and England together If he does this he will take rank as one of the greatest men O. the generation.

France has no idea of engaging in tariff war with the United States, and it is safe to say there will be none. The new French tariff, which Is now going through the legislative mill, will show no discrimination against American imports; in fact, in every way consistent with French interests the United States will be favored. The United States govern ment is fully informed of the attitude of France and there Is confidence here that nothing will be done at Washington to cause friction to embarass the French
 government in handling it's own tariff problems.

NJ. Turpin, the French inventor. who in- vented melinite for blowing his fellow creatures to pieces has devised an i'm provement for floating mines which is purely humanitarian in it's object. When the mine breaks a kindly thought, and as stray mine is as dangerous to the shipping of enc side as to that of the oth- CT, let us hope that it will be adopted by the great powers without delay. One of the most unpleasant feature of ma rine mining has been the glorious un- certainty of what will become of teth- cred guncotton after severe storm, and I think that the marine nicurance com panies ought to present M.

In order to be allowed to return to France such offenders must either have who are known to be solicitors or be able to show years record of good conduct.
