The crime is punishable bya term of five {gars in prison and a fine of $2,000. Soon after is arrest he telegraphed to the First National Bank of Chicago to wire to some Detroit bank in the morning to place @10,000 at his disposal to enable him to give bail, which was fixed at $5,000, with two sureties. ‘or some time past Sam Moy has been sus- pected of having shand in the smuggling of celestials across the river at this port and other places along the Detroit river. No overt act, \owever, could be proven against him. ‘ester- terday one of Sam Moy’stools made a confession that he had been hired by the Chicago Chinese to give false testimony in the cases of the Chinese now on trial in the United States court. On Tuesday two Chinese, Quai Too and Folk Cove, were up before Commissioner Graves on that cha: R, L. Montgomery, who says he lived in the Bowery of New York for some years, until four ago, ewore that he had often seeu the New York city, having known yearsand the other for . He said that he had come through is way to Chicago, and accidentally had met Sam Moy at the Griswold House, reo- ognizing him at once, but without being recog- nized so quickly by Moy. Tho latter then, he related, had told him there were two New York Chinese at the jail whom he probably knew. He said he went to the jail and identified the twoas Quai Too and Folk Cove. Then he broke down and told the truth. Sam Moy is one of the wealthiest of the celes- tial merchants in Chicago, and Montgomery con- feseed that Sam Moy was but one of n syndi- cate of influential Americans and Chinese in New York, Chicago and Detroit who were en- gaged in smuggling Chinese across our border from Canada. The names are withheld by the Unitea States marshals, but it expected that arrests will follow at once in the three cities named and that as a result a vast smuggling conspiracy will receive ite death- low. Sam Moy's $10,000 has not yet been received. As hundreds of the slant eyés are run through the blockade every nd as they are taxed from 850 to $100 ¢ rofitsaccruing to the smugglers is enormous. Sam Moy had not been suspected, and has acted as an interpreter for Uncle Sam on several occasions when his countrymen have been on trial. Montgomery expects to escape punishment usa result of his confession. A Gathering of 3,000 Persons Heard Him Speak at Kaleigh, N.C. Raxerax, N.C., Sept. 29.—Gen, J. B.

Having been elected national president of the Woman's Relief , auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, I hereby assume the duties of the office, fully’ realizing the great re- sponsibility of the position.

About the 15th of next month the new re- turn postal card will be placed on wale at ail Post offices. The two designs, one for do- mestic and the other for the international pos- tal union service haye been approved by Post- master General Wanamaker, and the work of Printing and distributing the cards will be pushed with vigor. The half of the double card containing the message to which » reply is desired is 33y inches wide by 5y inches long. At the top of the card and a little to the left of the center are engraved in three lines, one above the other, ords “Postal card, with paid reply,” “United States of America,” and in smaller type “This side is for address only.” In the right corner is = vignette of Gen. Grant, en- circled by a frame bearing at the top the leg- end ‘‘message card” and at the botton “one cent.” At the lower lett hand corner are the words “Detach annexed card for answer.” The whole is enclosed in a tasteful border. The face of the return card, in gen- eral effect, is similar to the message card. Instead, however, of the words “Postal card with paid reply” at the top of the card are the words “Reply postal card.” Over the vignette of Gen, Grant the words “Reply card” are sub- stituted for ‘Message card.” The international card is somewhat smaller than that for domestic use. In the border at the top of the card appear the words “Postal card with prid reply” and their French translation, “Carte postale avec repouse payee.” A design ‘at the top of the card con- tains the words “Universal Postal Union" aud <United States of Amerion,” with their French equivalents. A liberty head occupies it hand — up) pect ngs rpg ton “two cents.” In all other essential par- ticulars the domestic and the international cards are very similar. Black ink will be used on both. The card and the card for reply form one piece of card board, folded together and creased on aftine between, where they are to be separated when the reply is seat. ———s A Suit to Vest a Title.

In discussing the transfer today a prominent citizen said: “It looks to me like a political scheme to get rid of the health officer. be did not know. Why, the health officer cer- tainly should be allowed to choose his own chief clerk—s man who necessarily must be his confi- dlontial friend. “Beside, this the organic act provides that the clerks of ‘the health departmont ehall be ap- pointed upon the recommendation of the health THE ORGANIC ACT EXAMINED. Apropos of this it may be stated that when the board decided upon the transfer yesterday ‘fternoon the question arose sto the pro- priety of appointing 2 man in a Mepartment without fret consulting the head of the, office. The organic act was brought oat and that portion relating to the appointment o! clerks reed. . It is as follows: “Section 10. That the Commissioners may sppoint, upon the like recommendation of the Ith officer, a reasonable number of clerk: but no greater number shall be appointed no more persons shall be employed under health oficer than the public interest demand, and tbe appropriation shall justify.” A discussion ensued and it was finally decided to construe the act to mean that the number of clerks and uot the individuals should be rec- ommended by the health officer, and +o the transfer was made.

WHAT THE ENCAMPMENT DID, Already there is some discussion as to the benefits accruing to Washington encampment here. The banks are beginning to feel the effects by increased deposits, That much of the money coming in was spent here by visitors is known from the fact that the bills instead of n and ne’ customed to, are oid and ragged and soiled, the kind of money that ts found at points distant from Washington. Chairman Edson estumates that the sum of #3,000,000 was left in Washing- every, ton. Within short time, be thinks, branch of business will feel the stimalus gives by this large sum of money, But this yn small view of the benefits. “The direct benefits of the money spent here,” re marked Mr. Edson today. “are of infinitesimal importance compared with the permanent benetite gained by Washington. It is estimated that $20.000 strangers visited the city, and all of this number, with rare exceptions, were pleased with the city. Ther wentaway filled with an ides of the grandenr of the capital. Every county ia the United States was rej resented in that ering, and isis fair to estimate that those $20. 090 Visitors will interest several millions of peo- ple in the capital. The benefite to the city are incaicnlable. experience in Boston and San Francisco, though that fit followed the encampment follo a and Warhington onghi to beneiit even ip greater degree.” oo ER AT THE SOLDIERS’ HONE, Gen.
