SMUGGLING OF OPIUM

CAl'TAIX TOZIF.lt. OF IIKVKM'E SKUVICi:. TALKS IM T.HKS TIMiLY. Ilotv "liiiirM- Arc I.itiiil-t In TIiIm Co tin try Tno Holla rn for llwry llolliir Serun-d In Klondike. C.ipt. D. F. Tozier. of the United Slates revenue cutter service. Is In the city to viit Dr. Allirecht, of Woodruff Place, while on his way to report to the revenue authorities at "Washington. Captain Tozier is in the "preventive service" in I'uet ?ound and has for many years made it his business to try to keep out smuggled opium and Chinese emigrants. He says both are smuggled over the border from Uritih Columbia to a great extent In spite of the vigilance of the revenue officers. Although the government made great efforts in years past to put down this traffic, It was not until th duty on opium was reduced to fcl a pound that a telling blow was delivered at the industry. This reduction accomplished more than all the revenue officers hud been ablo to do for years, as it made it unprofitable to in.port the Vancouver brand, which up to ihat time had taken the place of the Chinese product. Tho Chinese in Vancouver, Captain Tozier said, arc as unscrupulous as they are ingenious, and this was illustrated in their dealings with vendors of smuggled opium. For years the Vancouver opium was In great demand and thousands of cans of it were Imported without the Knowledge ol the government. Hut the eagerness of the Chinese to make money rapidly had much to do with the falling off of the trade. Capt. Toiler says that many times when a shipment of a dozen cans of opium was delivered over the border without inspection the buyers would find that sometimes half of the cans would be idled with molasses and sawdust instead of opium. The labels would be the same on all of them and the desceptlon would not be noticed until they wero opened. The victims had no recourse from the fact that they were dealing in smuggled goods. He says few people, even in the Northwest, have any idea ot tne magnitude of the task of watching the coast line along Puget sound, which is filled with islands so closely grouped that In rnany cases less than a mile of water will separate American from Urltlfh soli. Kxptrience has shown that no number of revenue cutters can prevent smuggling, and the only remedy is believed to be the establishment of a line of steam launches to patrol every section of the sound until the traffic, is stopped. The main business of the smugglers at this time is the importing of Chinese, for which service the Chinese pay a standard price of i head. He says Puget sound, is full of small crafts which will hold about fifty of the Celestials, and these boats maneuver In midwatcr until the government patrols are compelled to leave them by calls elsewhere, and then they simply sail over to some convenient point and land their freight. The Canadian government, he says, does nothing to stop the traffic, as it exacts a head tax of . from each Chinaman landed at a Canadian port and will not interfere with the smugglers, knowing that the ultimate destination of the Chinese i this country. Captain Tozier says that people should not believe the reports sent out from Seattle regarding the fabulous strikes in the Klondike. He says it Is a country which will never pay for its development. nd for every dollar taken out of It in gold f'J have been paid by the miners. He says the papers of Seattle have systematically distorted the facts about returned miners in order to influence people to go to the Klondike and spend some money in Seattle for outfits and supplies while on their way to the gold fields. He says he knows of several cases where men were reported to have returned with upwards of $..( when in fact they were practically penniless. One man of his acquaintance was reported In a Seattle pafer as having returned with J'jO.OU") when n fact he had spent his savings, amounting to $10), during a trip to the Klondike and had returned broken In health with only P'A. This paltry sum had been swelled by the newspaper to as many thousands. The same man applied next day for work to a lumberman of Captain Tozier's acquaintance, and when some one expressed surprise that a man worth $,Jx should -want to work at hard labor he smiled and told the above story. That Is the truth of the matter," said Captain Tozier. "and if you know of anyone who wants to go to the Klondike do all you can to prevent him from doing It. The merchants of Seattle and the transportation companies will take nil he has, and if they miss any the people of Dawson will take the rest for floe at a barrel and bacon at many dollars a pound." DELAY IN STARTING. The InillanapoliM Prrtt Will 1nue lietween Xov. !. nnd ". A large force of employes has been busy for the last several weeks preparing for tho Irue of tho Indianapolis Press, which Its owners, MaJ. William J. Richards and John H. Holllday, announced would appear on or about Xov. 1. However, on account of unexpected delays m receiving and placing tho heavy machinery In position. It I.- nowannounced the paper will not begin publication until several weeks later than was originally Intended. They are quite certain now that the first paper will appear on a date bt tween Xov. 13 and Nov. .. There bia been considerable alteration on the four-s-tory building on Pearl street which was purchased by Major Itlchards, to be used solely for newspaper purposes, arid every man, that could be employed on thH work of changing the structure has been used. and. in every mechanical department every man that could be of avail has been employed. The typesetting machines have arrived and are being aemblet on the top floor of the Pearl-Street bulldlnp, which will be used for a composing room. Messrs. Holllday and Richards have obtained tho latest deVices for convenience in a composing room, and thesfe include several machines new to Indianapolis. This room is large, airy and well lighted and makes an admirable place for a large force of men. On the door immediately lelow the editorial rooms are to be arranged, while the pew color attachment quadruple presses are to be on the main floor, with large windows. giving the public-f-alwayis curious as to the working of snch Intricate machinery a full view of their operation. The .stereotyping rooms are also to be on this same floor, and in onkr to support this massive machinery it WdiS necessary to build a broad foundation of steel beams. Tho business, editorial ami reportorial forces have been made up. for the most part, and the men are at work on the preliminary labors, waiting for tho machinery to start. Malor Richards expresses much surprise at the cordia'.Ity with which hi? new enterprise is being. rectived. ! don't know of any new journalistic venture," said Major Kichards last evening, "that has been so heartily welcomed by a community, and the returns from our canvassers for subscriptions have been gratifylngly large. In Indianapolis alone we have obtaiw-d from I. VOOO lit 20.o subscribers, while our bonalide subscription on the day we start will ret be under Our first lss.e, of course, will bo several times that number, but already we have signatures for the subscriptions I mention." ZED AUGUR UNDER ARREST. lie Will lie Tried To-I)a hn rgetl with Uniting Two-Dollar Hills. Deputy United States Marshal Foley yesterday arrested Zed A. Augur on the charge of having In his possession United States treasury notes which had been raised from two to five-dollar notes. Augur was arrested Jate In the day as he was alighting from a street car. ,Whcn informed by the marshal of his arrest and the charge against him Augur willingly accompanied the ofllccr to his office. The facts in the case, arc shrouded In comti mystery ami could not be definitely learned from tho officer. It appears that during the past year a great many of these raised notes have been put In circulation, there having lxen more than the usual number of thorn discovered In the last month. The circumstances surrounding the case. M'ttn to point to Augur as the man. and yet lie has u story which, if true, will completely exonerate him. Augur came to this city not long ago from Columbus, Ind., and la now rooming at

College avenue. He Is about thirty-five years of age, single and of pood appearance. He was taken before United States Commissioner Moore?, but nothing was done beyond setting his hearing for to-day at 2:3i o'clock, liaising bills has become quite a common thing here of late. Some time ago a man by the name of llrown was arrested at Uvansville charged with putting raised bills into circulation. These bills were raised In a very peculiar manner. By detaching a part of a ten-dollar bill and putting It on a one the one became a ten without apparent injury to the original ten. llrown is now in jail here and makes one of a gang of about twenty-five charged with counterfeiting. ROADS ARE NOT READY

ami a ;i:m:hal putition ayili, hi: m:t to Tim ;ovi:iinm:t. President Prndhury Sayn nn I'nforcement of tlie Antomntic Coupler Will Tie lp Small Itonrii. President Pradbury, of the Lake Erie & Western Railroad, announced at the Denlson last night that, although no formal announcement on the subject had been made as yet, the railroads of the entire country had united in a petition which it was intended to present to the government within the next month, asking that the time limit during ' which the Interstate-commerce Commission has decided that all railroad must equip their cars with automatic couplers and air-brakes to be extended from Jan. 1, l.'00, to a year from that date.' A year ago. when the same concession was asked, the different railroads made application fccverally, butf this year conditions make it imperative that whatever action is taken should be by all roads acting in common. The" reason for this is that several of the weaker roads' will not be able to comply with the law, and while, internally, this will not affect the roads which will be able to comply with the law, its general effect will be paralyzing to traffic on all roads. Most of the roads, Including the Lake Eric, will be equipped with all required apparatus by Jan. 1, according to Mr. Pradbury, but many smaller r jds that are now bonded to their limit and have not the money and are shut out from borrowing it cannot comply with the law. This makes it obligatory on the strong roads to include themselves In the application for an extension of time, as, unless fhey do, they will be prohibited from hauling cars belonging to roads hot able to equip their rolling stock with safely appliances. The present car famine makes it desirable for the strong road to borrow from the weaker ones, and by including themselves In the application for an extension of the time for putting on air-brakes and couplers they can use these cars. Mr. Bradbury says that all the roads in the country have placed orders for new rolling stock and arc destroying all cars not considered worth the investment of safety appliances. He says the petition to the government Is to be handled by a committee representing all the railroad.-: of the country, which, .when it asks for tho extension, will make a statement of the number of cars now equipped according to law and the numberequipped during the present year. He says, as nearly as can be ascertained at present', fully SO per cent, of the rolling stock of the country is equipped, but th.it, while this ratio looks lare on paper, the enormous number of cars in service makes the figures of the 2) per cent, not equipped so large that at first thought they seem Incredible. Most of them belong to the fmall and weak roads, however, which would be driven into bankruptcy or receiverships if pressed to comply with the law. Moreover, in his opinion, it could not be done by any method, as the material with which to equip them could not be bought at this time and delivered in time to meet with the provisions of the law. He said a strict enforcement of the lawwould result In the tying up of the small and weak roads, as they could neither buv new equipment nor operate the old-fashioned equipment they possess. Mr. Bradbury said, in answer to a report that the Pennsylvania road contemplated abandoning Its service over the Iike Urie tracks from here to Koko. 4hat the Pennsylvania road had a ten-j contract for trackage rights and had re t.y expressed satisfaction with the Lake ; e service, so that he did not think the rou. mtemplated building a Logansport line in ; le near future. MRS. LEGRAND PAYNE DEAD. She Had IJeen an Invalid Many Years Heath of MIsm Moore. Mrs. Minnie Aiyne, wife of Legrand Tayne, died yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock. The residence was at No. 94 Middle drive. Woodruff Place. The funeral will occur at the residence this afternoon at 4 o'clock, and the remains will be taken to Chicago for burial.

COUPLE UNDER ARREST

Tin: max is aiioit twextt-pive, THE WOM.W MAW YEAUS OLDER. It In lleKel Hint TIe- Itolliel n Lnfnyeile Store and Milppcd the Plunder to 1'oIumiImim, O. Captain Harrison, superintendent of police of Lafayette, was hire yesterday, after extradition papers for E. D. Werden and his alleged wife, Alice Werden. who have been arrested in Columbus, O. Werden and the woman with him, who says she is his wife, are accused of stealing dry goods, chiefly silks, of the value of P or $100 from the store of Hiemp & Schussler, a dry goods firm In Lafayette. For some time the police were utterly at a loss io account for the. way in which the goods were disposed of, and by whom they were stolen. A lucky chance put the game into their hands when they wero least expecting it. The couple, who are an ill-assorted pair at best, Werden being a young man of about twenty-five and his alleged wife a woman of forty-live or fifty, went to live In Lafayette, and on account of their frequent quarrels, and, possibly, because of tho disparity in their ages, attracted the curiosity of the neighborhood. One day while one of their quarrels was in progress a neighbor overheard the woman call Werden a "penitentiary bird." From that time on the neighbor kept her weather eye upon the doings of the couple. It was not long after this that Werden and the woman were discovered shipping away, on a dray, two or three heavy boxes. When the police were notified of this they began a quiet investigation by hunting up the drayman who had hauled away the boxes. Whe"h found, the drayman readily remembered that ho had hauled the boxes to the depot. Upon going down to the depot the boxes were found to be there awaiting fhlpment to Columbus, O. Superintendent Harrison accordlnglj sent one of his best men along with the shipment, and when tho boxes arrived yesterday they were promptly called for by Werden and his wife, who were Just as promptly placed under arrest. A telephone message was tnen sent to Superintendent Harrison, who came to this city after the necessary papers. Werden was released from the Reform School In Pontlac, 111., about six years ago. and what his record has been since that time no one seems to know. He is a young man of pleasant address and prepossessing personality. The woman is much older than Werden and looks as though she had seen better days, They will be brought back from Ohio as soon as the requisition is honored by Governor Bushnell. THE STATE'S FINANCES. End of the Fiscal Year Finds Them lu Good Condition. The balance at the end of the fiscal year ending Oct. 31, 1SD8, remaining in the state treasury was $5oO,773.3. The receipts were $7,120,520.79, making a total of $7,671, 2?J.2S. Tho disbursements were $o,f70,71S.2, leaving a balance of $1, 34.02. Some of the state offices and Institutions have increased their receipts, notably the secretary of state, who shows an increase over $20,00"). The insurance department of the auditor's office shows an Increase in fees and taxes of about $21,0u0. The total receipts of insurance and taxes amount to $224,OoO. The expenses of next year will be pretty large on account of the heavy appropriations made by the Legislature last year for new buildings to be erected at the different state institutions. These will cost approximately $rUXJ0. But the State will be more than abl? to meet the expense, as It will have several new sources of income. All the earnings of the different state institutions will be turned into the state treasury. Heretofore part of the earnings of pome of the Institutions had been used to pay the salaries of some of the officers, and for the maintenance, and repairs of the buildings. The taxable propertyof the State has increased this year in the neighborhood of jrw.OOO.OOO. The State paid this year $612,00i) on its debt. This will reduce the Interest on the State's indebtedness in the neighborhood of $22,000. Next year the State will reduce its indebtedness by from $CO,jm) to $.X0,ou0. The year Just closed was a prosperous one. BROWN COUNTY PLEASED At the Prospect of a Ha II road Being Built There. Secretary Charles E. Barrett, of the Indianapolis Southern Railroad, reported yesterday that the survey of the line had been completed as far as Nashville, Brown county, where there was considerable enthusiasm over the first line to tap that county. He said the work is progressing satisfactorily and with but few hindrances. Mr. Barrett la also one of the owners of the Greenfield-Indianapolis Electric Railroad, now under construction to this city. He said the company r.ad received all the material contracted for. except the car bodies and the machinery for the power house. All the rails and ties are on the ground, together with twenty-eight electric motors with which to equip the seven cam which will comprise the rolling stock at the beginning. Mr. Barrett says the road will surely be in operation by the first of the year. In discussing plans for the future Mr. Barrett said it was proposed to begin with a half-hour service to Greenfield, and as soon as the frost was out of the ground work would be commenced on the extension of the road to Knightstown and the Soldiers and Sailors Orphans' Home. The total mileage of the extension will be fixteeen miles to the orphans home and l-Pg to Knightstown proper. Nothing has been done as yet toward selecting a superlntedent for the line. A P0ST0FF1CE ROBBER. Frank Vale Awakened a Young; Woman and Wnit Captured. Deputy United States Marshal Fife, of New Albany, Ind., brought to this city last night Frank Yale, u federal prisoner, arrested Saturday night at French, Ohio county, while In the act of robbing the post.ottlce at that place. A young woman living near the postofflce was aroused from her sleep by noises in the postofflce. She uwoke others of tho family, and a number of men surrounded the place and made Yale a prisoner. "When Yale entered the county jail here ho first saw the safe in the office and eyed it critically. Sheriff Clark noticed this, and when Yale was put In the cell -asked,, -Now, Frank, what do you think of that safe?" "Old timer," was the reply. Honestly," said Air. Clark, "how long would It take to open it?" Yale looked at the sheriff for a moment and then said, "About a minute." Marshal Fite thinks Yale Is an old and experienced safe blower and has served time for his work. He showed an unusual knowledge of the different prison's throughout the country and of the larger titles. When arrested he had explosives and safeblowing tools In his possession. THE THRESHER TRUST. A. A. McKaln. of Thin lty, la Still at Work on It. Mr. A. A. McKain, of thi3 city, is still at work on the formation of a threshing machine trust.

WAS CUPID'S BUSY DAY tiiuki: 1vcddixgs ix tiik clerk's office: ami oxk at the jail. Patra .Mndnen Mnrrles Fred Cook to Save Him from Farther Trosecu1 1 on The Other Weddings. Cupid made himself very busy about the county clerk's office yesterday and once In the afternoon the rosy little fellow left the courthouse long enough to cause a commotion at the county jail. At the clerk's office three marriages took place during the day. The most interesting one occurred about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when William E. Yelfcn, of Pittsboro, Ind., and Miss Delia llcflin, of Lebanon, were made one. Justice of the Peace Nickerson performed the ceremony. The groom appeared at the clerk's office In the morning and arranged to set the license as soon as his bride should arrive from Lebanon. He met her at the tra'.n and they hurried to the clerk's office and procured the required certlScate. One of the morning weddings was that of Floyd A. Eubank and Essie May Rickman, the ceremony being performed by Justice of the Peace Lockman. The young people about the clerk's office were considerably interested in another wedding In which the bride wore a gown of spotless white and gloves to match. The groom was Olney 1. Lleurance, of Huntington, and Bessie M. Fultz, of Trader's Point, was the bride. Fred M. Cook and Patra Madsen, a pretty girl of about twenty, were married at the jail by Justice Lockman. Cook has been a prisoner at the jail for a month or more. He was arrested at the instance of the Madsen girl, who charged that he had wronged her and In Police Court he was bound over to the grand Jury. He and the girl had been sweethearts for several months. Cook's case was to have been investigated by the grand jury at its next fessloii. Charles Benelict was to undertake Cook's defense. A few days ago lawyer and client decided that a wedding in Jail would be better than prosecution In the Criminal Court and Attorney Benedict yesterday asked the Madsen girl If she would go to the jail and talk with Cook. She consented and on arrival at the jail Cook asked her if she thought enough of him to save him from further prosecution. She aid she did and although he had cruelly wronged her she consented to marry him. Justice Lockman officiated In the presence of Attorney Benedict and the jailer. After the marriage the girl left the jail and Cook went back to hi; cell. He will be released this morning. Under the law Cook may be prosecuted if he deserts his wife within two years.
