Tracy's Neme, as a Naval Auvthor- ity, Has No Particular Weight. Gen. Tracy, formerly Secretary of the United States navy, was quoted in the re- cent naval debate in the house of com- mons by Lord George Hamilton, who re- ferred to Gen. Tracy's recent comments on the English navy, with which he said he agreed. Mr. Gledstone was on his feet as soon as Lord George sat down and answered him in these words: “I do not know why the noble lord has quoted Gen. Tracy. His is not a more sa- cred name in my eyes than any other. I saw Gen. Tracy's article, and it is not un- natural that the noble lord should turn it to account, but I do not know what means that gentleman has of examining the case.” “He was secretary of the United States mavy for four years,” interposed Lord George, and laughter and ironical cheers —_ the conservatives greeted the an- “Then it seems to me,” continued Mr. Gladstone, “that he corresponds with a noble lord.only is not quite so good.

Am Investigation Into the New York Custom House Being Made. Reports heve been received at the Treas- ury Department to the effect that gross ir- regularities have been discovered at the New York custom house, principally in the | matter of tobacco refunds. The alleged ir- | regularities run from 188% to the present time and the alleged fraudulent refunds amount to about $1,000,000. Many officials are involved, several of whom are accused of gross carelessness, to put it mildly. The matter is being considered by Secretary Carlisle and Assistant Secretary Hamlin, and prompt action is expected. Names and other details are withheld for the present. The principles laid down in the case of the United States vs. Schlesinger as to tobacco refund have been the basis on which all proper refunds have been made. These principles, it Stated, have been departed from and refunds allowed illegally and wrongfully. While the report deals spe- cifically with the tobacco refund it also touches upon refunds made in the hat-trim- mings cases, where, it is alleged, refunds amounting to many hundred thousands of dollars have been illegally and connivingly made. ———+-o+—_____ ARMOR PLATE CONTRACTS.
