" "The old law worked like this.‘ said the official. 'There was. for instants. a tea examiner in New York. There were other tea examiners at other in- terior ports of entry. like Rochester. were more than likely to be poor Judg- es of tea. The examiner of New York might be a good judge of tea. but there was absolutely no rule to guide him in his rejection or acceptance of an lm pcrtntion. The law said that adulter atcd and spurious' teas should not be imported; but it did not define adull terated and spurious teas. ~If the ex- aminer was feeling pretty good one morning 9. sample might taste all right to him. and he would pass a big lot of tea without question. The next morning. perhaps his liver was out of order. and the very same kind of tea would be rejected. There was an ap- peal then to a board composed of one representative of the government, and a third man to be selected by them. A controversy usually resolved itself into a fight to get on the board a third man. who would be partial to one side or the other. "Sixteen standards of tea were es- tablished by the Treasury Department and samples of each standard were sent to New York. Chicago Tacoma. and San Francisco. Those cities are the only ports of entry for tea and all tea received in this country is ex- amined at one of these ports and com Diarrhoea A preparation made in Iowa has gained a world wide reputation for its cures of diarrhoea.

"To illustrate the injustices that were possible under the old low. 1 can cite the case of one importer at New York. who had $30,000 worth of tea re~ jccted by the examiner. of which $15.- 000 was afterward admitted on appeal. The $15 000 wmtb excluded was a total loss. The new law aimed p.1rtlcula1 ly at the Plng- Suey tea, which is sold under the name of Moyua. The Mayan tea is good tea of low price. The Plug-Susy is a sort of weed which grows around Shanghai. and which the Chinaman fires and rolls with his hands. and makes 11p into a tea which looks much prettier than the real “No attempt is made to establish exact divisions between the different kinds and flavors of tons, for there are at least 1,000 differences in perfectly good teas. Of Congou teas alone there are nearly 300 flavors. But different flavors do not make different grades. The variations in flavor as a rule rep- resent the'varlance in tastes of the tea consumers. The best tea that is brought to this country for general sale is worth iii) cents a pound whole- sale. Sometimes especially choice teas have been brought here and sold l0i' $1.25: but though they differed from the others. it would be entirely a mat tor of individual taste to determine whether they were any better than the ailment quality in fact. the Bobcat tea is a drink lit for an emperor. to can iret a very has ten for 69 cents whole-lilo.

CHANGES ON RAILROAD. Several Summer Trains Have Already Been Discontinued. ‘ The return rush from the summer resorts has set in. and the travel over ‘the Consolidated has considerably in3 creased during the past few days. cl The White Mountain express is not now carrying the crowd that it did a few weeks since. when it was made one of the heaviest trains in the sen vice. 0n the return trip daily from the mountains it has a good patronage and is well filled. The baggage department will under so another rush of business within a few days; The Saturday Newport ex. press has proved itself one of the best trains of the Consolidated and has been much patronized by the New lor kers who run up to their country plac- es at Newport weekly. This was put in service the first Saturday in June and it' made its final trip last Satur- day. as it is run only in the summer months. The millionaires who have becomo'accustcmod to the use of this luxuriously furnished train will. for the remainder of the season. be com- pelled to travel on others which are not quite so convenient as there are no longer any through trains to New port in the service. . Train 250. which leaves New rork for Greenwich at 1: 83 p. m.. was also discontinued Saturday The Shore Line express, going West. was discontinued today. The White Mountain express will be continued until Bentomb or as, when this palatial train will also be taken out of service. The new winter time table which will be an almost entirely new sched- ule of trains. will probably so into of ,iect October 1 and will contain several new trains for the winter service.
