Without questioning the Attorney General's stand from a. legal point of view, many believe that the report of the naval advisory board should have been taken into consideration, as well as the report of the ex- amining board, both boards being appointed by a Secreta y of the Navy, and having equal weight. I: is claimed by many that if the ves- se! is defective the responsibility rests upon the advisory board, who represented the govern- ment in the matter, and not upon Mr, Roach, The advisory board furnished the designs of the vessel and directed the inspection of ma- teriul and workinanship, and should, {t is sald, be held responsible for the result.

THE GUILLOTINE CEASESTO WORK—THE CRY OF “OFFENSIVE PARTSIANSHIP” NOT AS POTENT AS IT WAS—THE CIVIL SERVICE REFORM LAW MUST BE FAITHFULLY CARRIED OUT. ‘The President has called a halt, A little over ®@ week ago the order went out to all the de- partments that all dismissalsand appointments © fill places not vacant must stop at once. The President, after declaring his policy with rela- tion tothe civil service in the most positive man- ner possible, turned the departments over to his cabinet officers, making them personally respon sible for their acta, Now numerous changes have been made and many officials have been turned out on the indefinite cl of “offen- sive partisanship” until the term itself has be- come offensive. The exposition of the loose Hays of the appointment clerk of the Treasury, followed by the attempt to prevent the a] pointment’ of Kellar under the civil Service law; the sweep in the Department of Justice, the indiscriminate fling of charges in the Post Oitice a ent, and the alleged dis- Position of the Commissioner of Pensions to make clean sweep in the Pension have attracted the President's attention, and he has asked lily advisors to explain their actions, and ordered them meanwhile to stop right where they are, A week agoastop was put to all the work in the appolatment division of the Treas- try department, snd the appointment, clerk ‘was told that no more commissions were to be made out or papels considered until further orders, and a lot of changes that were contem- plated’by him were killed In thelr conception.

THE WASHINGTON PHYSICIANS AND THE IX- TERNATIONAL MEDICAL CONGRESS. The members of the medical profession in this city, who were reappointed by the new committee of the Medical association, which met recently in Chicago in connection with the plan of organization for the International Med- jcal congress which is to meet in this city in 1587, hud a meeting Saturday night. They de- cided tydecline tie positions offered them under this new organization, for the reason that the old committee was properly constitu- ted, and the arrangements as far as made were isfuctory, and no necessity fora change ex- isted. The ‘gentlemen in itis city who were appointed by the old committee were as. fol- lows: Drs. SG. Busey, Wm, Lee, W. W, John- ston, J. Ford Thompson. A. F.A-King,J.T.John- ston,D.

As stated recentiy in THE STAR the present ditculty arises from the jealousy which the members of the American Medical Association living in the country districts regard what they consider the excessive prominence of the city doctors. Also, to the iact that the feeling be- tween the new and old code adherents appears. in a resolution to keep out from the congress all new code men. It is probable that a special meeting of the Medical Association will. soon becalled inorder to adjust the present diffi- culty and get matters in shape for the reception of the foreign delegates, eee FAaIncres IN THE Distnicr.—T, P. Madigan, superintendent Bradstreet’s mercantile agency, writes to THE STAR as follows: During the first six months of 1885 there were reported to “Bradstreet’s” twenty-two failures In the District of Columbia, the total abilities of which were $150,041, and actual assets, $54,360. The majority’ were small traders, whose ine ranged between $3,000 and $5,000. Although the total number ‘has gained, the aggregate of indebtedness has fallen aWay as compared with the total Habilities in the rst six months of 1884, On the other hand the te assets are smaller than fromJanu- ary to July, 1885, which is not so satisiactory, showing as it does @ smaller proportionate ability to pay outstanding debts, even though the latter are less than reported a year r. While there are gratifying points im the six months’ record of failures, as compared with last year, such as the declining totals ot indebt- edness, Loth in the aggregate and per the individual, the list showsa notable increase in number, id the proportion of assets to liabili- ties is smaller.

Special Dispatch to Tre EVENTSa STAR. RIcHMOND, VA., July 13.—Not more than 25 OF 30 of the 700 delegates appointed to the re- publican state convention which will meet in the theater here on Wednesday, had arrived in the city by noon to-day. It is not believed that there will be a full attendance of the accredited delegates, as many proxies have been appoint ed by remote counties. Gen, Mahone, as chair man of thestate committee, will call the con- vention toorder promptly ai 12 o'clock on Wed- nesday, and sanguine republicans calculate upon an adjournment sine die on Thursday af- ternoon at the farthest, Still there are contin gencles that may cause @ protracted conven- tion, with exciting Incidents.

Wise, was fora generation a potential political factor, and he has lange sprinklings of strength throughout eastern Vir- ginfa, Blair's most obvious strength Is in the country lying on the Tennessee border and ex- tending well through the region known assouth- west Virginia. Should Wise be nominated for governor and the valley be complimented with the selection of Yost for second place, his friends would gladly tender to the southwest, where readjustment scored its earliest and greatest victories, the nomination of Blair for attorney general.’ Blair nominated for gover- nor, would, itis assumed, be pleased to nee Yost for ‘lieutenant-governor and Eastern Virginia complimented with the attorney-ceneralship for Wise. Wise’s position gets some strength by the suggestion of the name of ex-Congress- man Bowen as a possible candidate for lien- tenant-governor. This may affect the situation in the southwest, whence Bowen hails, and where he is: very popular, by dividing Blair's Strength inthe region which Is apparently solid for him. While there are no indications of passion between the friends of Wise and Blair, either among the politicians now here’ or among thelr friends throughout the state, the contest will grow hour. ly sharper until the convention shall meet, as the support of each candidate is very zealous, There is evidently some very wild “counting, as both Wise's and Blair's friends claim the nomination of their favorite easily on the first ballot. The drift of outside prophecy inclines to Wise's nomination, be- cause of the belief that Senator Mahone prefers Wise, To-day there are hints of a possible situa- tion making the selection of new material ne- cessary for the state ticket, and_ ingenious sug- gestions are offered to show that Mahone may at last be made the choice of his party for go ernor, Similar sugzestions are made concern- ing Gen, Wyatt M. Elliott, lately a state sena- for, and for years one of the proprietors of the Richmond Whig. ‘Questions affecting the party organization are certain to arise, and may largely in the deliberations of the convention, and may affect the selection of candidates. Gov. Cameron and Senator Mahone differ widely as to matters ot party organization, and their differences have entered deeply into recent discussiuns among Virginia republicans, Democrats here affect no concealment of their interest in the periorm- ances of the republican convention.

Warenrorn, IneLann, July 13.—The annie versary of the Battle of the Boyne, yesterday, caused a large increase in the usual Sunday number of dranken men to be seeo on the streets last night. Among them were many of the soldiers belonging to the Welsh regiment doing garrison duty here, A number citizens: got into adranken row with the soldiers, dar ing which the latter bayoneted to death one ‘of the former. The commotion attracted crowds of men to the scen When the civilians real- ized that one of t namber bad been killed a a became furious, and fell apon the soldiers with such toree that the latter were compelled to beat a hasty retreat to their barracks. The mob followed them up . but being threatened with powder and bail if they attempted to foree an entrance to the barracks they contented them selves with smashing the windows of the bar= racks with stoves. The rage of the populace was so great this morning that it was deemed best to ‘transfer the Welsh regiment to some other place. This was done immediately, and as the soldiers marched from the barracks to the rafiway station surrounded by policemen a mob followed them, hooting and stoning the soldiers. Several Parnellite members of pyrlia- ment have telegraphed that they will bring the matter betore the government and deman an Immediate Inquiry into the outrage, It is xenerully believed that the soldiers began the row. The name of the civilian killed during the riot last evening was Peter Grant.

ATTORNEY GENERAL GARLAND'S DECISION. Attorney General Garland has decided in the Dolphin matter that no contract exists between Mr. Roach and the United States, “and that the large sums of money which have been paid Mr. Roach have passed into his hands without au- thority of law, and are held by bim as so much money had and received to the use of the United States, and may be recovered from him. And not only so, but the money thus paid him by officials holding @ fiduciary relation to the government having gone into the ship Dolphin, # court of equity will follow It there, and for Uhat purpose entertain @ proceeding against the ship itself.” He holds that the United States is not bound under the law to accept from be contractor any other sort of vessel than the ‘one ordered by Congress to be built, namely, @ dispatch boat or clipper of a sea xpeed of fifteen. ‘and the Dolphin having been found not to be & vessel of that description it would seem. ta follow that nothing ‘short of of Congress could authorize, her - ance. The second defect—“wanting vn necessary strength and stif Mess” —the Attorney, Geseral holds ts fatal, whether due to ‘the “plans upon which the vessel was builtor not, because by the ninth clause of the contract the contractor and his sureties stipu- late that the vessel constructed under this con- tract shall be sufficiently strong to the armament, equipment, coal, stores ma ghinery prescribed by the naval adv . The Attorney General adds “that the hin, in view of the report accompanying your com: munication, is anything but ‘sufficient strong,’ cannot, for this reason alone, be ed under the contract, the defect mentioned ing fundamental in character.” je takes the stand that the government has been in no wise estopped by approval of the paval advisory board, as no tance of a essel not bylli in “strict conformity with the contract” could bind the government. Hi ‘argues that the provision binding govern- ment to accept the vessel on the approval of the naval advisory board is vold, because it shifts responsibility from the Secretary of the Navy. ee ‘The Kellar Case.
