PRICELESS LACES LOST. Thirty Veices of Queen Margh- erfta’s Collection For the Fair Missing. Chic igo. Ill., June 11 —A startling 1} disclosu e wax mude at the world’s fair yrounds inst evening when the priceless laces sent here by Queen Murgiserita of Italy were unpacked, Whi outof thr cases and each piece counted it was found that thirty pieces were :nissing. Cablegrams were immediately sent to Rome ap prising the Queen of her great loss for it seems as developments thus far indicate, that the loss will not fall on the exposition company, its bonds not covering its safety in tran sit. An effort was made to keep the discovery a secret, but custom offi. cers Civulged the news. These possessions, out of reverence for the memory of her countryman, the discoverer of America, Queen Margherita consented to sent to Chi- cago for the fair. She sent a noble trusted lady, the Countess Di Brazza to watch aud guard her treasures and the goverument of United States gave a bond of $100,000 to guaran- tee their safe return to Italy. The coming of these laces has been her- alded as an event and the feminine population hus been an the tiptoe of expectatiun © When it became known that they had arrived at the Woman's building under the escort of customs inspectors, two men from the Italian consulate,the Italian consul himself and two of Captain Bontields’ detectives, a crowd gath- ered at the Italian department to watch the unpacking. After it was completed it became appurent that something was wrong, as great excitement seemed to prevail in the booth where the Countess sur rounded by the customs officials aud guards was taking the laces from their wrappings. the ices were being taken A customs inspec- tor informed 2 reporter that thirty pieces of lace were missing.

Democrat. Hon. D. A. DeArmond, who has | been making a brief visit to Clinton, left today (Wednesday) for home. | He looks to be in vigorous health, | and if an early session of congress | is called, will be in good trim for business. The Judge is not satisfied with the slow manner which | changes postoffices are being} made. In the seven counties, Bates, | Henry, Cass, Cedar, Johnson, Dade, | St Clair, composing this congres-| sional district, about thirty changes | have been made in postoftices of the fourth class—that is. all below $1,- 000 yearly income—which officers | are appointed by the Fourth Assist- | ant Postmaster General. These were resigning rapidly, anticipating | removal, but have suddenly ceased to do so. the fear of removal seem ingly having vanish from their minds. This class of officers are commission- ed for no specified length of time, while presidential offices—embrac- ing all of $1,000 salary or more— are commissioned for four years; and of the dozen offices of this class only one change has been made in this district—at Greenfield. There are a number of cases before the de- partment at Washington similar to the Clinton office, where republican postmasters were commissioned just before the Harrison administration was going out, and they seem to be hanging fire, with no particular en- couragement from Postmaster Gen- eral Bissell. He is pressing these matters as much as he possibly can. Judge DeArmond thinks indica- tions point to an early session of congress, probably in September. It has been his belief from the first —which he outlived in a letter to the Republic in November last— tkat congress should have been con- vened immediately after the inaugu- ration of President Cleveland. He thinks there will be no opposition to the re-election cf Judge Crisp to the speakership. He thinks strong efforts will be made to repeal the in in of putting in its place a Jaw for the | free and unlimited coinage cf silver. | sion of congress the tariff will be | materially lowered, with the result lof giving our farmers additional jmarkets and better prices while |cheapening the necessaries of life to the consumer. He believes, with Mr. Cleveland, in a graduated income tax, as one of the best and fairest means of raising additional needed revenue, and in- troduced a bill in the last to raise in that way a sum congress | equal to the amount of the ahnual expendi- i . tures for pensions.
