The affair was taken up and dis- cussed; more ducls arose, and the fruitful theme isstill multiplying “gentlemen of honor.” As aPerisian guel is only a pin scratch, more or Jess, there doesn't seem to be much reason why the Prince of Santa Severina shouldn't be an oc- casion of grave dispute until the end of time. ———— AFeEw days ago we had some observations upon the general character of a large body of men who make themselyes offensive because of the prominence they assume in all public demonstrations of the Democratic party. In fllustration of that fact, we copied a list of names published by the Chicago Times purport jngtobe alist of self-constituted representa- tives of the Democracy of Chicago who had gone tothe Cincinnati Convention. The Times dis- tinguished the persons named in this list from the number of reputable persons who had also goneonthesame mission. Finding this list in ‘the Democratic organ, and assuming that it was posted as to the persons and their character, we used the listin zood faith. It seems, however, thave been largely false and malicious. In the ‘first plnce many of the persons named did not gotoCincinnat! at all, and among those whom ‘the Times ptously prayed might never be al- Jowed to come back to Chicago alive were sev- erat respectable and estimable citizens whom that paper thus sought to insult and degrade. “Among those whose names were thus wantonly used were Messrs. C. J. White, Louis Spicgel, gud John J. Corcoran, and, douptless, several otaers. So far as THe Trrsuxe did these or any otuers injustice it has only to express a regret that it was deceived by accepting the Times as an authority concerning their character per- soually or as Democrats. os Tue existence of the Cincinnati Times as an independent newspaper ended yesterday. It will be transferred to-morrow to its youngerand more vigorous rival, the Star, which, selling at a lower rate, has been able to cut the ground from under it. The Times was founded about 1838 or 189 by Calvin W. Starbuck on a capital of a few hundred dollars. By great self-denial and un- tiring industry he managed to build up a large property. His paper had one of the best weekly cirenlations in the country, years ago. He was offered $200,000 for the Times just after the Civil War, but demanded $225,000, and would not sell forless. The Intending purchasers established a rival newspaper called the Chronicle, and spent, it is said, nearly $350,000 in striving to supplant the Times. About 1871, Starbuck died, and the two papers were consolidated under one _ management, $175,000 having been paid for the ‘Times to the Starbuck heirs. Meanwhile, the Star came into being, and, while it made little or no money for itself, it prevented the Chronicle- ‘Nimes from making any. Ithas been an open secret. fora year.or more that the Times has been losing money at the rate of $15,000 to $2,002 year; and, of course, its winding up. under the circumstances, was @ mere question of time, ‘ ——————__—_. Ax active controversy is now roing on among the membersof the Jewish Order of B'nai Brith in this city. During lute years, a large number of Polish-Russian Jews have taken up their residence in Chicago. These, having pros- vered, have asked permission tu form lodges of that Order amoung themselves, to which there is opposition. The Polish Jews have herc- tofore been largely exciuded from civilization, andsocially have not been held in high esteem by other Israelites, and the objection is founded on social prejudices,—such, perhaps, as exist among Gentiles in certain localities against Israelites generally. The question is whether the Order of B'nai B'rith shall recognize this Prejudice, and perpetuate it by denying the Poles a charter of their own, or whether they Will seek to elovate them by according to them inthe Order that equality which is consistent With the broad and liberal principles which are common to all Americans. This question is Sharply discussed in several articles in the Yavish Messenger of Chicago of yesterday. It shows that social prejudices are not confined Wwany race, and it will be interesting to sce if the Jews of Cnicago can rise above them. <a ——_—§_ Grex, Waker, Superintendent of the Census, meets the clamor about the census from Various cities that claim to have been misrepre- - “sented with perfect calmness and good humor.

SPEAKING of the new huge warships of Great Britain, the London Pall Mall Gazette suys: The completion of the Infioxible, the Ajax, and the Agamemnon is now promised during the present tiseal year. ‘This will muke an im- portant addition to the actually available strength of the navy. The Intiexible, the largest man-of-war afloat, is a veasel of 11,106 tons’ displaceinent: while the Dandolo and Duillo, her rivals in the Italian navy, are only of 10,570-tons. ' The urmament of the Inflexibic, consisting of four 80-ton guns, is, it is true, in- ferior to that of tho Itellan ships, each of which carries four 100-ton guns; but, on the other hand, there can be no doubt that structurally the English vessel is of greater strength than the Itulfan mon-of-war, The Ajax and Agu- memuon are sister-ships, each of 8,492 tons, so that by the completion of the three vessels 27,554 tons of fronelad shipping will be added to the immediately available strength of the navy. The Ajax and. Agnmemnon carry only four 38-ton guns, but as these weapons throw a pro- jectile weighing 700 pounds with sufficient ve- locity to penetrate 14-inch armor, the vessels must bo regarded as offensively of considerable power, while they admittedly possess great de- fensive strength. —<———___—_ AN intelligent correspondent of the Dub- lin Freeman’s Journal prophesies the garnering of abundant harvests in Ireland this year from July to November, and if the prophecy shull be justified by the event there should be no need of Irish relief funds next year, and no such de- mands as Mr..

An Important Decision Regarding Government Transportation on the Pacific Eoads, Compensation Should Be With- held Under Existing | Statutes. Treasury Statistics—What the Carlisle Indian School Is Doing. PACIFIC RAILROADS: IMPORTANT DECISION. Spectal Dispqtch to The Chicago Trivune, Wasuineron, D.C.,June 26.—The Treasury Department has to-day issued a circular rel- ative to the transportation service performed by the Pacific Railroad Companies which are of considerable iuterest to the States through which the land-grant railroads pass, The Attorney-General says in sub- stance: First—Shall all compensation due for transportation services rendered for the Quartermaster’s Department over those por- tions of the Union and Central Pacific Rail- roads which were built by aid of Govern- ment bonds be withheld?. Answer: Yes. ‘The second section of the act of May 1, 1878, expressly declares that the whole amount of compensation which may from time to time be due to said railroad companies respectively for services rendered for the Government shall be retained by the United States. ‘This act was intended to- change the preéxisting Jaw, and could hardly be made more explicit, Shall full compensation be made for all transportation services rendered for the Quartermaster’s Department over those por- tions of roads owned, controlled, and oper- ated by said Union and Central Pacific Rail. road Companics which were not built by aid of Government bonds, or shall all compensi- tion due for such services be withheld? Answer—Though the Supreme Court held in United States vs. Kansas Pacitic Railroad Company that the bonds issued to that corpo- ration are not alien beyond the 100th merid- ian, nor is the Company Hable for 5 per cent of fts earnings beyond ‘that point, yet in the following case, the United States vs. Denver Paeitic Rallroad Company, the Court ina yote based its exemption of the road from liability to have its compensation for Government transportation withheld, upon the fact that the Company (Denver Pacific Railrond Company) was not indebted to the United States. ‘I'he Central and Union Pa- cific Railroad Companies and the branches referred to in this inquiry are indebted to the United States upon subsidy bonds. In this state of the decisions, I advise the retention of all compensation to those railroads for service upon such branclies,.so that question can be judicially determined. 8. Shall all compensation due for transpor- tation services ‘rendered for the -Quiurter- master’s Department over that portion of the Kansas Pacific Railroad 393 15-16 miles of which was built by the aid of Government bonds, or only one-half of such compensa- tion be withheld? Answer: All compensa- tion should be withheld over the entire length of this road, under the Revised Statutes still in force. 4, Shall any part, and, if so, what part, of the compensation due for transportation services rendered for the Quarterinaster’s Department over that portion of said Kansas Pacific Railroad, 244 miles of which were built without aid ‘of Government bonds, be withheld? Answer: For the reason indi- eated in my reply to the second question, I think all compensation should be withheld as to this portion of that road as well as to that in ald of which bonds were issued. Your fifth question states that the Kansas Pacific and Denver Pacific have been con- solidated with the Union Pacific, and asks if yment for services over these lines should vithheid and applied to the debt of the Union Pacific. Answer: As stated in the sevond answer, the compensation should be entirely withheld until otherwise directed by the Court, because the Kansas Pacific Rail way Company is indebted for interest paid by the United States upon its subsidy bonds, 6. Shall all, compensation due for trans- portation for the Quartermaster’s Depart- ment over those portions of the Sioux City &: Pacific and Central Branches of the Union Pacific Railroad, which were built by aid of Government bonds, be withheld, or shall only one-half of such compensation be with- held? Answer: All, because derelict in payment of interest. 7. Shall any part, and, if so, what part, of the compensation due for transportation service rendered for the Quartermaster’s De- partment over lines owned, leased, con- trolled, and operated by the said Sioux City & Pacilic and the Centra! Brauch Union Pa- cific Railroad Companies which were not built’ by aid from Government bonds be withheld? Answer: All for reasons indi- cated in the second answer. None of these corporations appear to be affected by the act relating to the compensation of roads which received grants of land upon the condition of a free use of the road. Of course con- sideration in addition to those above sug- gested would operate as to any such ‘com- pany. Cas. DEVENS, Attorney-General. NOTES AND NEWS. WATIONAL FINANCES.

Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Sr. Lours, Mo., June 26.—Lizzie Stadler, a very beautiful Swiss girl, was found to-day to have committed suicide at 2019 Franklin avenue. Her conversational powers and her yivacity and personal appearance gained for her many admirers. Some two years ago she met and fell in love with a young man, with whom she corresponded some, time after- wards, but her father opposing her actions the correspondence was discontinued, and the lover atlast became lost to her and her friends. Since then she has received few yisits from gentlemen, and seemed to care but little for their companionship. That she was heartbroken was demonstrated to- day. She disappeared inysteriously last Tuesday night, and to-day her body was found in a weil back. of the house, from which various families have been using wa- ter during the week. Her father exhibited a brutal inditference when the girl’s body was discovered. ‘Speeuu Dispatch to ‘The Chicago Tribune, St. Lovis, June26.—James Wilson, a young man who came to this city trom New York a. few days ago, attempted suicide this morn- ing by jumping from the bridge into the Mis- sissippi.
