Another gigantic conspiracy was brought to light here to-day. It is an opium smuggling scheme , the extent of which at present cannot be approximated , though If the statements made by the gov ernment agents nro to bo believed , many per sons in all parts of tno country are involved , nnd many arrests may bo made to-night or to-morrow. To-day treasury agents arrested a man who registered at the Palmer house as E. W. Brown , of New York. In his room in a house on Wubash nvenuo , whither ho had boon traced from the hotel , was found a can vas covered trunk and 125 pounds of opium. For some time the custom house officials had boon looking for quantities of opldm which was thought to have arrived in this city from New York instead of the Pacific coast , presumably to dodge the heavy duties Im posed upon the drug. For a month a special agent has been en gaged In active search for the s'.ufT , and about ten days ago a small quantity of the drug was seized at Fort Wavno , Ind. The news of the arrest created quite a stir in the treasury department at Washington , and the wires were kept busy with orders and In structions to the treasury agents hero. Agent Tichnnor has been sent from Washington hero , and now has fall charge of the caso. Ho stated to-nlfikt that the prisoner was not from Now York but from San Francisco , and that ho had been Known under the alias of C. II. Martin and C. II. Gardner.

[ Now York Herald Cable Special , to \a"nc \ Br.n.J Many extracts - tracts have been given In London and provincial tv vincial papers fmm Blalno newspapers in the United States rofei'Hng to the intense doslro of Englishmen 'to slio Cleveland and free trade triumphant. ' Great amusement Is afforded by thrso .extracts to the Amer ican colony * JOT tourists , not excepting republicans. I have occasion to read scores of representative English . leading journals dally , published in Important cities , and can vouch that as much good will and honorable mention is made of Harrison as Cleveland , whllo Boulangcr Is much more a topic of interest than any pres idential candidate. The Dally News , n homo rule and soml-radlcal paper , gives to-day this skit at the silliness of the Blalno organs : "Tho political opponents of Cleveland appear to bo adepts In the art Known In the United States as 'campaign lying. " Ono of the tricks practiced in the last presidential contest was thJ circulating of extracts from a pretended pamphlet said to have boiju issued by the 'Freo Trade Club of London , ' Wherein Englishmen were ex horted to understand that 'the salvation of Sngland depends ujxm the destruction of American manufactures , and that the only jossiblo way In which American manufac- .urers can bo destroyed is by f eo trade. ' To Englishmen the absurdity of a free trade jlub which regards free trade as the only iiosslblo specific for destroying n na- ion's manufactures , is sufllcicntly ob- ious. Of course thcro never was any ; uch pamphlet. Ono of the latest in dentions engineered in the present contest Is n report to 'tho effect that a highly respectable Now York paper which supports Cleveland's fiscal policy is mortgaged for mlf a million dollars to two members of the louden club at suspiciously moderate Inter est , 2 per cent per annum. This palpable Ictlon marks , at all events , some advance In campaign lying from an artistic point of view , for while there is not and novcr was such a body us the 'Freo Trade club of London , ' the Cobdcn club has , at least , an existence. "Wo , ourselves , wo may hero note , are ufferera in some dogrco in this way , the as- sailcrs of Mr. Cleveland's ' free trade doc trines , as they are pleased in their exagger ated vein to style them , being Just now ac tively engaged in circulating passages from alleged articles in the London Daily Nows.of ivhich wo have not been able to find any trace in our flics. " Indeed , as if to cast further ridicule on the one of the Blalno press , the Morning Post , which Is ono of the organs of the British government , has a long leader demonstrating low protection ' 'has bcnolHted the states. It thus begins : " "Sqrno figures relating to the economic and industrial progress of the United' States in rccont years mvo lately boon made public and well deserve notice in , this country for they form a rather startling commentary on the favorite text of the radical free trader about irotectlon only 'injuring ' the country that adopts it. In nn thcr'part of the article the ' " 'ost says : "According to our friends of the Cobden school American coirimerce and American manufacturers ought to bo declining rapidly under tuo withering influence of a tariff. Instead of Ulis , the statistics , to which wo refer show that - " hero follow a lot of statistics calculated to give Mr. Blalno political friends angina poctorls , with excited delight. At the 6ml of the statistics it continues : "And yet there are scores of politicians here so blind to what is going on in the world as to stick to the old futish. " Villnrd's Exploring Scheme.

You see the republicans n the approaching contest nave , as wo say n law , got no case. Cleveland's prompt ac tion in making a reduction in the tariff the decisive issue of the campilgn has cut the round from under their feet. In 1SS1 many of the republican leaders wcro loudly main- taming that our protective taxes were 20 per cent too high. Now they have to cat their own words or admit the truth of the democratic position. In their dilemma they resort to such an argument as Mr. Depew made use of. They tried to make out that Mr. Cleveland is a rabid free trader , and that his re-election will bo a menace to the industrial nnd labor interests of the United States. In other words , they are basing their case on pure nonsense. " "Admitting , us you say , Judge , " put in the reporter , "that the republican arguments are spurious , may they still not bo of such a character as to alienate a number of the lower classes from the democratic party , particularly in Now York state ! " 'I don't ' think so , " was the emphatic reply. "Tho laboring men of America nro not easily deceived. They nil read the news papers and decide for themselves. The ro- imblicans try to frighten them by pointing to the inferior status of European laborers , telling them that such will be their own lot if they elect Mr. Cleveland. But the stirowd Irishman or German sees that in England , with its free trade princi ples , wages are higher than anywhere else on the continent , and ho draws his own conclu sions. " "Speaking of Germans , " rejoined Commis sioner Von Glahn , "I know that a largo ma jority of thorn in Now York are strong Cleveland - land men , They arc a prudent , saving race , and it goes against their grain to see the government , year after year , rolling up an enormous surplus that is placing an unneces sary burden on the poor , nnd encouraging these in power to make enormous and ridicu lous appropriations. I have heard that argu ment advanced again end again by re spectable Gorman merchants. " "But can Mr. Cleveland control the Irish vote , which is all important for Ins suc cess ! " "I think I can answer that question , " in terposed Judge Van Brunt. "It is true that in lbS4 u very considerable portion of the Irish vote was cast against Mr. Cleveland , but there was a special reason for that. It was the candidacy ot James G. Blaine , who was believed by the Irish to bo ready to sup port the cause of homo rule against England. Mr. Harrison has no such means of drawing to himself nn Irish following. " "Of course ho hasn't , " added the commis sioner enthusiastically. "And , what's more , there ore positive reasons why ho will lese that following. All the fine speeches in tlio world will not drive out of the worklngman's head the Idea that Cleveland's re-election means cheaper moat and sugar and cloth ing. I toll you the democrats are going to carry New York state by such a majority as never was known in a presidential con test. If they could carry it four years ago with an untried leader , why can't they carry it now , when that loader has won the confi dence and respect of the whole country ! " "Tliat's the talk , " remarked the judge. "Upon that tlicmo lot mo give you another reason for the success of the democratic party. Besides that largo portion of the population who , being out of politics entirely , will support Mr. Cleveland simply because they behove him honest and incupablo of be traying his trust , there is another extensive clement which will favor his reelection tion because they are constitu tionally opposed to any needless change. This feeling exists very widely among our business classes und represents the natural conservatism of capital. It was precisely cisoly this idea which kept the republicans so long In power. Thousands and thousands who have voted the republican ticket during the past twenty-live years did so simply be cause they were afraid to trust the demo crats. Now that the democrats have shown themselves in the highest dcgrco trustworthy , they will make tremendous gains among those men who have no other interest in the election than to secure a wise , sound admin istration of public affairs.
