ON TRAIL OF THE SYSTEM

Since Mai Ben Tai, a Chinaman
was bound over to the federal grand
jury under 5000 bonds by United
States Commissioner Taylor recently
for having smoking opium in his
possession, a regular traffic in the
nefarious drug has been discovered.
Special Agent J. D. Reeder, of the
customs department, swore to the
complaint. The opium is being
smuggled into the United States from
Cananea, where it is taken to Fair
banks; there it is sold to China
men, according to the belief of the
government men working on the
case.
Mai Ben Tai, when arrested in
Tombstone a few days ago, had one
one-poud can and two glass jars of
the opium on his person. The China
man was en- route from Fairbanks,
where he had just visited the Chinese
colony, which cultivates small patch
es of garden land there. Mai Ben
Tai is well known in this city, where
he has resided for a number of
years.-Prospector.
