SWINDLING- "UNCLE SAM."' CANCELED STA-UPS CLEANED AND j I SEI> IN LARGE QUANTITIES. wuslling Willi antis-riiRiiiin ni^rmci | Uncanceled Parts of Several Stamps? j How They Are Used. ( From the Xexn York Star.) ! I "The most troublesome offenders against government laws are the experts who use canceled postage stamps," said a postoffice official the other day. "They have a system of washing out the cancellation marks that is so successful as to make detection almost Impossible. 111 tne oinces 01 iurgu cuius like New York and Chicago, where so many letters are handled daily, and where rapidity is the most desirable feature, it is impossible for the men who cancel stamps to examine each one carefully. Then, too, a great deal of the work is done by gaslight, and this is a point which tends to aid the conspirator against the government's income. "Any one who has seen a postoffice employe in the New York office grab a bnnnle of letters and cancel the stamps with lightning-like rapidity can readily see how impossible it is for him to detect bad stamps unless they are particularly bad. The men engaged in the business of using canceled stamps are extremely clever. They have an acid in which they wash the stamps. The acid acts upon the cancellation marks, and not upon the colors of the stamp. In this way a stamp that has once been used is relieved almost entirely of its black marks. If any ?? black ^pmains after the washing process the operator takes a sharp knife, which lie has made for the purpose, and deftly scratches the stamp until the remaining black marks are almost if not entirely removed. This can be clone readily when the marks arc upon the bald head or the face of the his*r? A Q/lAvnC lUlli; [JUl SVliHiJt ? uuac 11S1H.HV/ ..uvi..the* stamp, as this portion is white; and upon a white space the stamp can be scratched until it is nearly through without detection. "Another clever trick that is employed is the cutting of stamps. Often in the hurry of postolfice work the cancellation mark does not cover the stamp, but falls only upon one corner, the rest going upon the envelope. The operator takes a stamp that has a black mark, say upon the left hand lower corner. lie carefully cuts a square piece out of that corner, making it large enough to cut away all of the canceled portion. He then secures a stamp on which the cancellation mark has fallen in some other corner. lie carefully cuts out the same sized square from the lower left hand corner of the stamp, and joining it with the first stamp he ha? a whole stamp upon which there are no cancellation marks. These stamps are used upon packages w ] ??/?)> nya tin/l o cfrincr anil flip ?? j.iiVi.1 aiv v*. IT 11u w? ? ?"v? ?..-v string is ingeniously placed over the cut stamps. "Take'anv package of a dozen letters and you will see how easy it is to lind stamps for this business." As he spoke the official drew from his pocket a bundle of half a dozen letters. Upon the first letter the cancellation mark was only upon the lower right corner of the stamp. The second was can- j * ? celed completely, and the third was marked only upon the upper left hand corner. So a combination could have been easily made with the stamps upon the first and third letters. "Many of these operators," continued the official, "grow expert in the work. They have clever tools and tho ricrM kind of trmcilaore. and some go even so far as to have coloring processes for touching up a Garfield black eye or a Washington soiled cheek. What do thej* do with the worked-over stamps? They do not sell them, as many suppose, and that fact renders detection more difficult. When a man becomc successful in working over canceled stamps he endeavors to get into some business which will require the sending and receipt of manyjregistered letters and packages. The most popular scheme is to go into the cheap jewelry or fancy trick business. The operator lays in a stock of the cheapest kind ofjeweiry and advertises thoroughly through the country, especially in rural districts. A gold" watch with chain and charm for $4.50 is a bait that catches a great many green spec ulators, and as they are instructed to send remittances by registered letter, the operator receives a number of five and ten cent stamps. These stamps he operates on, and when lie returns the jewelry he pays the postage in whole or in part with canceled stamps. He makes 100 to 200 per cent, on the jewelry, and does a thriving business in illegal stamps at the same time. "Ah, yes, there are a great many in the business, and their success is wonderful. All that we can do is to keep 011 the lookout and catch one of them when we can. We get an idea that a man is doing crooked work, and then watch him. When we once get an idea it does not take us long to ascertain the truth. Whenever the person presents a package for registration we have it held for inspection, and if there are canceled stamps upon it we are pretty sure to find tiieni. Often the bad stamps are detected before they reach the cancellation clerks. When they are being taken from the receiving baskets they are sometimes detected. There is now awaiting the action ot the grand jury a man wno is neia i for doing a rushing business in canceled stamps from his store on Broadway. lie followed the usual plan." "War Speculation ia the South. More than one man in Atlanta made millions out of government contracts. Speculators, tradesmen and manufacturers struck it rich. What did they do with their money?

He Says There Are More Biblical Injunc- ' tions to Sins Than to Pray. nri-.: ? \r? f|\.1 i "uuu loves uiusuu;, aeuu .ui. iai- ; mage in a recent sermon at the Brooklyn Tabernacle. "Look backward j through the dim mist of intervening ! centuries and see the great Temple of: King Solomon. Over 200,000 bright-1 robed singers till the air with song of, praise and rejoicing, and the blare of j the trumpets and the resounding music j of the timbrels echo and re-echo from i pillar to pillar around the portico of i the House of God. The Bible is filled j with injunctions to the faithful to sing, j They tar outnumber the commands to ; pray. Some people say: 'But we I cannot sing. When we try to sing! every one laughs at us.' Everybody J can sing. Everybody can lift up his I voice in praise of his Creator, and it is . as ridiculous for a man to say that he I cannot sing, as it would be to say that he cannot pray. "We owe much to music. There 1 have been times when a national air j was worth 30,000 armed men and a ' blast of the bugle 1,000 bayonets. No : state or family can ever economize on ; music and be prosperous and con-! tented. We hear a great deal aoont j various schools of music. There is a f German school and a French school and an Italian school; but there ought j to be one more school?a school of ; Christ?where every man, woman and child in this broad country could go and learn to sing those simple hymns i which sound loudest in the ear of God. j We have no choir here in the Taber- j nacle, because I want you all to feel j that you are the choir. We have had j glorious singing here. People have come from distant cities to listen to it, 1 and though there may nave ueen some i question "about the quality of the j preaching, there has been none about | the singing. Another reason why we have our hymns given out by a pre- j centor is because we thus avoid choir quarrels. My experience has been ' that all the trouble in a church begins in the organ loft. On one Sunday j everything will be lovely and the congregation will marvel at the lull-voiced o.wl i\ta tirv/J crilumn ! UICIUU V ciliU nig VlV/V/p-lVuv^uj I notes of the organ. On the following j Sabbath, more likely than not, there will be no music at all. Why? Be-i cause the organist' is mad, or the | soprano is mad, or the whole lot of j them are mad! "There is one thing which I would : impress 011 all of you, and that is to j rise when you sing. Stand upright on I your feet, unless too old or too sick,: and throw your entire soul into your ; song. I would advocate making every | family a singing school. There would be more light in our houses" if there was more music. It is not he wito has the most highly cultivated voice who moves your soul the most by his song. I remember standing in the Champs jbiysee, in rans, ana nearmg a uuie Frenchman sing the Olarsellaise' just1 before the battle of Sedan, and his i song is echoing in my heart when I address you now. How our own national air thrills us through and ! through at times of great national excitement! Hymns are the national; airs of heaven, and I believe that if we doirt sing them here on earth we shall not sing them there in the hereafter." RAINBOW PARTIES. Chicago's Very Newest Way of Spending Time and Money. rout the Chicago 2\'e icx.) The latest society novelty is what is known as the rainbow party. Already it has assumed the proportions of an epidemic, although it made its first appearance in this city only a lew weeks ago. Old bachelors and young ! men who have always lived lives ofj single blessedness are generally the J fortunate ones at these parties." The i rainbow party cunniugly serves to J illustrate the helplessness of man, and J also displays in no dim light the ad-! vantages of being married. All the young"ladies in attendance j wear neat little aprons of such design | and color as the taste of ^the wearer I may suggest. The bottoms are all j carefully left unhemmed. Every j young lady has a number and duplicate j numbers are kept in a box, which is ; generally placed in the neighborhood of the gentlemen's cloak room in; charge of two young ladies. The gen-! tleuien buy tickets which entitle them j to a draw from the box. The pur-. chaser having drawn a number at; once sots out to find the young lady wearing the duplicate number on her I apron. The tickets are generally $1 j each, but at a south side party given a few nights ago they brought $0 each. After all the young men have tound their aprons?or rather their young ladies wearing the proper aprons?the master of ceremonies announces the conditions. The young men are to hem the aprons, and the one doing the ! neatest, quickest and most careful j piece of work is to receive a prize. Tba young ladies supply their escorts with needle and thread, and at the call of time the fun begins with the efforts of the contestants to thread their needles.% Young ladies are strictly fm-hirlHf-ri fo thread the needles of their escorts, and a violation of the rule I compels the recipient of the favor to I forfeit all claims on she prize. The young ladies enjoy the contest; immenselessly, and it is indeed a j pretty sight to watch a score of smil- j ing young misses leaning back in their j chairs and watching with merry eyes | the struggles of the clumsy-fingered j swains before them. After the needles \ arc threaded and the young men are j at work the scene is uore the less inspiring. At iast time is called, and a committee judges on the work. The prizes are sometimes quite valuable. At a west side party recently the voung man who was most handv ^ .r- 1 i with needle ana mreau carncu jiuihk an elegant French mantel clock. The aprons are raffled off after the prizes are awarded, and when a jealous young man attempts, as is often the case, to outbid a rival for the possession of a pretty girl's apron, the j prices brought for the innocent little ! aprons are amazingly large. At one j rainbow partv the sales amounted to | $72. It is whispered in Boston that, in i case Ireland obtains home rnle, John i L. Sullivan will claim deseciit from an ?

POWDERLY OX THE AXARCHleSTt*. Ho Gives Hi* Views on Their Recent Minconduct?.Some Very Sensible fcujmextionx. SrTuvTOK Pi "Nffiv ?fipncral Mas ter Workman Powderly talked to day on the reign of terror in Chicago. "At~atime like this," said he, "there is a tendency among some well meaniDg but illinformed people to blame all workingmen for the sayings and doings of a desperate few who are never so happy as when they are riding the crestwave of the tempest ol passion. A distinction should be drawn, however, between the followers of the red Hag and those who owe allegiance to nr banner but the Stars and Stripes: between the anarchists who preach rain and the trut representatives of labor who believe in law fit 1 tV\*? of.lnV?rinnr i"i uu inuvw iui nviiictiu^ v4w*<MM>v v* forms." "Then there is no affiliation between the Knights of Labor and the anarchists?" ".Most emphatically no. The scenes oi bloodshed and disorder which have taker place in Chicago are disgraceful, uncalled for and deserving of the severest condemna tion and punishment. The men who march under any flag but the Stars and Stripes are ?>ot American workingmen, either native oi naturalized. Honest labor is not represented in the ranks of those who array them selves under the emblem of blood "and destruction. I have no sympathy with the men who have instigated such deeds as have been perpetrated in Chicago. It is the duty of every organization of workingmen in the United States to condemn the outrages committed in the name of labor. I believe the man who comes to this country and who refuses to become a citizen of the United States after having sufficient time and opportunity to do so, has no more right to be here than the alien land-grabber who takes possession of the acres of the West. The workingmen of America have a more powerful weapon than the bullet in the ballot, and if they use their lawful rights as citizens judiciously they will have no occasion to resort to desperation." "Are the men whose names are given as the leaders of this movement in Chicago Knights of Labor?" "No; and if Knights of Labor have taken part in these murderous proceedings, they should be promptly expelled fiom the order. Our organization means no antagonism to neccssary capital, nor have we any conflict with legitimate enterprise; and when we have occasion to take issue with illegitimate enterprise, we will do so under the law, whifli TimtPffc rir-li nnrl nrmr ;ililc?> It i> the duty of every Knight of Labor to support laws made to harmonize the interests of labor and capital." "Can you speak with any authority as to the attitude of the trades unions toward those disgraceful doings in Chicago?" "I can. There is a not a trades union ic America that will countenance wrong doing or urhold the men who have been engaged in such scenes of bloodshed and destruction of property as those reported from Chicago. The aim of the trades unions is to protect and elevate labor, and not to de grade and destroy it as the anarchists havt attempted to do." Mr. Powderly spoke with feeling, and was deeply indignant when discussing tin scenes of the past few. days in Chicago. w a sh ixgtox let1te r. Washington*. I). C., May 3.?Frederick Douglass, who lectured here during the week on his recollections of slavery, said, among other tilings, that he did not ap prove of emigration for his race. The ne gro could never go any place where lit could not find white people He thinks, by the way, that President Cleveland is i very brave man. Said he recently in a let ter to a friend, "While he treated me as In treated other officeholders in the Dis trict, he was brave enough to invite Mrs. Douglass and myself to his re ceptions, thus rebuking the timidity?I wil not say cowardice or prejudice?of his pre decessor. Whatever else Mr. Cleveland may be, he is not a snob and lie is not i coward." Mr. Douglass further said thai he was a Republican, and wouH do all he could to elect a Republican President ir 1SS8; but he honored manliness whenever h< found it, and he had fbund it in the pres ent occupant of the White'House.

The rooms are still ir winter dress, the annular house cleaning never commencing until the season is fal advanced. The Senate's plan for patching up the "White House at an expense of $300,00( meets with objections from different direc tions. The Senate proposes that South oi the present structure there shall be built ? duplicate house, connected with it by a cor ridor, and that the new edifice shall be ap propriated exclusively by the family of the President. The first serious objection tc this novel scheme is that it practically de stroys forever the mmetry and individu ality of the ancient mansion, which, after t life'of more than half a century, has become as well known, probably, as any public building in the world. With the proposed alteration the present beautiful Souther front disappears forever. Again, the new building would completely cut ?IT from the present (then the official residence) the love ly view to the South of the beautiful grounds, of the river and the hills beyond it, Arlington, the monument, and all the other striki-'g objects of interest now sc eagerly gazed at by the visitors from the Southern windows of the East room and the adjacent apartments.

During tbe week, for the first time this session, the Senators have discussed tariff and listened to a speech on prohibition, although there waz neither a temperance noi a tariff measure before them. The tariff debate was sprung in connection with steamship subsidies. Senator Beck wanted free ships if they carried the mail faster than American vessels. He contended thai there "was no patriotism in trade. Said he: "If General Lee were living and kept a store in Kichmond, with General Butlei next door to him, although Butler was never a favorite w;'h the women of the South, if he would sell calicoes one-half a cent u yard cheaper than General Lee, he would ruin General Lee's business in less than six months." The Senator from Xew Hampshire, Mr. Blair, who talked temperance to the Senate, is best known through the great educational bill which he formulated and introduced.

Pfenident Lincoln's AsHasxin. "Gr. D." writes to the Washington National Republican: "The father of the writer, together with Mr. John F. Coyle, of the National Intelligencer, and Mr. Johr T. Ford, manager of Ford's Theatre, were conversing on the corner of T.epth and D streets North-west upon the afternoon oj the 14th of April. 1865, 21 years ag?>, -when they were suddenly joined by John Wilkes Booth, the actor. The conversation drifted, as it naturally would, to the all-absorbing subject?the war and its virtual ending a1 the time of the meeting?when, without any introductory remarks whatever, Booth asked: 'What would be the result of the sudden taking off of the President of the United States'?' My father as quickly answered: 'What would be the result of an earthquake shock?' Booth gazed steadily into my father's face for a second and, turning about with a courteous 'Good day, gentlemen,' passed up Tenth street toward the theatre. That night the 'earthquake shock' was felt indeed." A Good .?Iany Failure*,* During the year 1833 there were 10,568 failures in business in the United States and Canada.

The Britisth ship Alexander Yates struck heavily upon a shoal and commenced leak- i ing, when the influx of water suddenly j ceased. The vessel put into Callao, Peru, for examination, and the diver found that a large hole in the bottom of the ship had been completely filled with the body of a large fish, which saved vessel and cargo. The militia fired upon the rioters at Bay View, near Milwaukee, Wis., yesterday, j killing: five and wounding several, every : one of whom had a Polish or Bohemian I name. The infuriated Poles afterwards de- j stroved the residence of Capt. Borchardt. who commanded the militia which did the i firing. Further threats of violence have j been made. Alderman Rudzinski, a Pole, of Milwaukee, who has been making incendiary harangues, has been notified by Gov. Rusk that he will be held responsible for troubles which may hereafter arise from the doings of the Polanders who have been prompted to act by Rudzinski's advice. The Alderman had been threatened with arrest by a policeman on account of his language.

The j trouble occurred at a Socialist meeting and j the report is that the ufiicers were attacked j as soon as they appeared.

The newspaper ridicule of the Ends j scheme of ship transportation by rail is re | futed by the fact that the American screw steamer Puke has been taken up from Pensacola Bay at Milton, Florida, and transported by the Pensacola and Atlantic Railway fifty miles or so to DeFuniak Lake, in Walton County. The transportation was a complete success and the steamer did not SHOW it ~LiCliU II fill lUU (lip.

The Knights of Labor had a right to organize to protect themselves, but had no right to disregard the rights of capital. Should they attempt to do this they will then come under the general condemnation of the church and special action may l>e taken. As yet, however, they had not forfeited their rights to 'consideration by the Catholic Church. France hits succeeded in snarling up the skein of Balkin diplomacy in a remarkable fashion. Whether she has gained her object or not, even the French seem not to know, for it is impossible to guess what her object whs.

News from Burmah is very sensational, aud shows that the natives, with the assistance of the Dakoits, have temporarily, at least, got the better of the British army of occupation. One dispatch states that the insurgents have irot possession of Manda lay, and Lave destroyed by fire no less than | 4,000 houses, including the Chinese and ( Siamese bazaars. Tlie hostility of the na-1 tives who remain loyal to the dethroned ; king, Thebaw, to the Chinese is intense, \ because of China's openly avowed indorse- : ment of Great Britain's seizure of Burmah. !

Crop Rrporlx. The Stale Department of Agriculture has received 214 special reports from County and township correspond* nts regarding the condition of the crops, &c., of an average date May 1, and furnishes the followirg summary of these reports for publication. The spring has bee i cold and generally unfavorable, retarding farming operations. During March cold weather and high winds prevailed. April was more favorable and farm work progressed rapidly during the month. Rain was general throughout the State at the close of the month, greatly benefiting all growing crops. COTTON". Notwithstanding unfavorable seasons, it is estimated th SI per cent, of the cotton crop had been planted by May 1. Early germination of seed has been prevented by cold weather and lack of rain. Thirtv-one per cent, of the crop is *'up" against 34 per cent, at the same lime last year. The general condition of the crop is not so good as last year, but an improvement is reported since the rains in the latter part of April. The reports indicate a decrease of 3 per cent, in the area cultivated below the average of 1885. The use of commercial fertilizers on cotton has been decreased about 12 per cent., and 34 per cent, of the crop has been fertilized with home-made manures. Cut worms has partially destroyed stands of early planted cotton in a few localities, making replanting necessary. COIIX. Correspondents report that corn lands have becQ better prepared and better fertilized than usual. A large part ot the land nrio-iimllv cnwn in smnll or:i?n hss been re- I planted in corn. These lands were well fertilized, and with ordinary favorable seasons will produce good crops. Some of the early planted corn on bottoms has been destroyed by the spring freshets. In some Counties the rains were excessive during March, and this, followed by dry weather in April, has injured stands. Birds and worms have been destructive in localities, but not more so than usual. The acreage will be increased 3 per cent, over last year. The general condition of the crop is reported at 95. Fifty-five per cent, of rhe entire crop has l>een fertilized, and 54 per cent, of this with home made manures or cotton seed. wiikat. An improvement is noted in the condition of wheat sinco the April rains, but it is less promising than last year, when an unusually short crop was harvested.

The condition of spring oats i* j reported at 72, against 73 last year, when j the same conditions prevailed as during the /' present sea-son, owing to the scarcity of seed of the red rust proof oats, which has proved the surest variety in this State. Other varieties were extensively used, and it is feared that the yield will not l>e satisfactory even with favorable seasons. kice. The preparation of rice lands has been somewhat delayed by unfavorable weather. In the lower Counties it is estimated that the area will Ik? three percent, less than last year.

The condition is reported as good as at the same time for the previous year. The area in sortrhuiu is the same as last year, and the condition is 94, against 95 in 1S8-3. TOBACCO. While the area in tobacco in the State is still insignificant, much interest is shown in the crop, and experiments are being conducted. under the rules of the Board of Agriculture, by farmers selected to make | the tests and by individuals in every County. | The correspondents estimate that the entire acreage has lieen increased 43 percent, over last year.
