According to the announcement of those who brough the good news to mr Tufts, a long search has been made for him, The other heirs have been found in New York and Massa« chusetts, but it was only after a thore ough combing of the country that his identity was reached. To make sure of the identification, thel awyers were put to a great deal of work, but Mr, Tufts' lineage has been traced down until records kept in a Bible which has been in the Tufts family for the past 150 years proved conclusively that he was the one whom they sought.

This sentiment, he added, is fostered by the English and other foreigners, American trade rivals, He warned that Americans must change their- ideas of South America before succ ful trade rela- tionships could be earried out.
