He is op- posed to bond calls on principle, his idea being that the government ought not to collect so much revenue. Mr. Fairchild thinks he agrees: that it is necessary to make the calls when the money has accumulated in the Treasury. he oitice, 920 Sib st. n.w., oF ofthe agents at the wharfom the morning ofthe excursion, @ugo-ate rpUnED ANNEAL T SiarreR VoLKsFEst, GUETHLER'S PARK, AY, MONDAY AND TUESDAY, ‘AUGUST 29, 30 and 31, 1896. : i. opening of the ‘ruit Column.

Nrxery-Toree YEARS’ EXPENDITURES FOR Pupric Worxs.—A statement prepared at the Treasury department shows the following ex- nditures on public works from March 4th, 789, to June 80, 1882: Pablie buildings, $83,- 438,195; rivers ‘and harbors, $105,796,404; roads, bridges and_canals, $19,550,885; light- houses, buoys, &c., $73,523,569; mints and as- say offices, $5,277,647; forts and arsenals, $86,- 059,782; Total, $373,646,782. In the last tour years the expenditures for public buildings have been on a very liberal seale, and if added to the sum above siated would doubtless place the aggregate for this purpose In the neighbor- hood of $110,000,000.

This they would never do if the reservation Indians should be taken away.” “What is to become of Chief Chato and the other Apaches who recently visited Washing- ton?” uked the reporter. “They are now ut Fort Leavenworth and will probably be detained there until something ts ne about removing the whole band. Indians want everything you know, and as the requests ot Cato and bis companions were not granted they would go buck to the agency disappointed and quarrelsome and would be apt to make the Indians on the reservation restless and ugly.” “Will the Apaches be removed to the military reservation at Fort Marion, Fla.?” asked the re- porter.

Ex-Accounting Officer Fagin on His Masele. ‘THE DISMISSED OFFICIAL HITS A CLERK IN THE EYE AND DRAWS BLOOD FOR WHICH HE 18 FINED $10. Accounting Officer Vivian J. Fagin, of the Coast survey office, whose dismissal was mentioned in yesterday’s STAB, was one of the men who made the exposure of alleged ir Tegularities in the bureau, which was followed by (He dismissalof Prof. Hilgard and a general reorganization of the bureau. On account of this, it is stated, Secretary Fairchild does not desire to turn him out in the cold altogether, and is trying tofind a place for him in the ‘Treasury department or elsewhere. ASrAR reporter walted upon Superintendent Thorne, of the coast survey, to-day with a clip- ping from a newspaper representing that Mr. Fagin, who was set upon by three attaches of the bureau ‘who intended to give him a beating, but that he “whipped the entire crowd.” Mr. Thorne said that Fagin was dismissed b: order of the Treasui department. He sai the determination to dismiss Fagin was Feached by Assistant Secretary Smith, after consultation with Assistant retary Fair child, several week prior toSmith’s resignation, but ihe dismissal was delayed until the ad- journment of Congress because Fagin was pre- tending to give information to certatn - gressmen, and the department did not want to seemingly interfere with that. In accordance with the order of the Treasury Fagin was dis- missed. ‘MR, CHILTON’S ACCOUNT OF THE FIGHT. As to the personal altercation Mr. Thorne called up Mr. Chilton, an attache, who witnessed it. He said to the reporter: “Mr. Christie, Capt, Harvey and myself, were directed to make an inventory of the con- tents of the safé which Fagin had had charge of. While we were thus en; Fagin entered and taking a per from the sate tore it uy Mr. Chilton id to him ‘you have no right to de- stroy anything here and must not do it.’ At the same time Christie pushed ‘in aside and got between himand the safe, The next thing I noticed that the two men had clinched. Several ws passed, and finally Fagin struck Christie in the cheek cutting ita little. With that the altercation stopped. Fagin remained in the room a short time and then lett. Except Christie no person made any sort of demonstra- tion against him,” Superintendent Thorne denied the published statement that Fagin had been simel yi trans- ferred because of difterences between him and the superintendent as to keeping accounts, IN THE POLICE COURT.

The Speeches in the House of Com mons—Lord Churchill's Point of Or- der. Special Cable Dispatch to Tae EVENING STAR. Lonpon, August 25.—The striking sentence of Plunket’s speech last night deserves atten- tion by itself He said the tories and union- ists are linked together for the purpose of main- taining the union of parliament of England and freland. Curiously all the liberal papers print the word in the singular while the con- servative papers let Plunket’s plural stand. This may be the first delicate hint of a con- Servative right-about face. Parnell produced a strong impression by the moderate tone, com- bined with the vigorous opinions of his speech, last night, The gist of it was that the Irish people would not be bamboozled into accepting crumbs in the way of harbors of refuge, fisher} piers and artificial attempts to stimulate Iris! manufacture in place of their birthright of national self-government. What Irish people Wanted, he said, was to help themselves (un one intentional bull, which created much laughter.) The commons fast night witnessed one of the most miserable attempts to jockey a political opponent seen for many years. Churchill's latest trick in an unconstitutional way I de- scribed last Saturday. The government, acting on his initiative, did not produce a policy until after the queen's speech. Gladstone having spoken! on this lost the right to speak again on the subject. Some debate on the government's policy being afterwards introduced, Gladstone naturally desired last night to reser vo it, While speaking on Parnell’s amendment, Churchill Tose to @ point of order, and the speaker was compelled to sored him on technical grounds. The liberal and Parneilite sides of the house were highly indignant at these contemptible tactics, At last Gladstone, bowing to the Speaker's ruling, threw himself on the inaul- gence of the house. zene ee es THE BULGARIAN COUP w ETAT.

CHICAGO, August 25.—The late speech of Mr. Powderly, general master workman of the Knights of Labor, denouncing anarchy, has evoked a reply from A. R. Parsons, one of the convicted anarchists, which was ‘sent as an open letter frou is Gell in fail last night. He challenges Powderly to find a man who can truthfully say that he (Parsons) as a socialist or an anarchist ever advocated or countenunced the destruction of life and property, Parsons letter say: ‘The foundation principle of social- ism or anarchy is the same as that of the Knights of Labor, viz: ‘The abolition of the ‘wages system,’ and the substitution in its stead Of the industrial system of universal co-opera- tion, making every capitalist a laborer and every laborer a capitalist,ending forever the contiict of classes and the inevitable antago- nisms of the wage slave system.” Instead of advising the use of force, Parsons claims that he has always only “ predicted " a social revoit of the work people against the force system. Parsons says: “In the past ten years I have been active as a labor organizer and orator. I am a Knight of Labor. In tbat tine, from New York in the east to Si. Louis and Kansas city in the west, and from St, Paul and Milwaukee and Detroit in the north to Louisville and Bal- limore in the south, I have addressed at least 500,000 workingmen, and among ail that number in all these years I challenge Mr. Powderly to find a man who can truthfully say that I, asa socialist or anarchist, haveadvo- cated or countenanced “the destruction of lire and property.” Whoever says so lies. * * * We have declared that the existing social order is founded on force and maintained by force, and we have and do still predict a social revolt of the work people against this force system; that the wage workers will be driven unconsciously into open rebellion against the ciass rule und class domination. The result will flow trom cause to effect and not from anything that Mr, Powderly, myself or any one else may say or do. The more geueral and intelligent the diffusion of this truth the less violent and de- structive will the period of transition be. This is anarchy, its teachings, which mean an end forever t brute torce, the reign o! eternal peace and prosperity. For saying these things myself and comrades now are in prison await- ing the pleasure of our executioners. I think it. ill-befits Mr. Powderly in the name of labor to join in the ery for our blood. Whether we live or whether we die, the social revolution is inevitable, The speech of James G. Bluine at Sebago, Maine, yesterday, is the real opening of the hational presidentiul campaign in 1888. He reads the signs of the times and forctells the coming question, viz: ‘The labor problem,’ But Lopine that he reckons without his host when he en- deavors to outline the prctecsive tariff question as the coming Issue, That racket won't wor any longer, It is played out. The liberty of javor is & worthless thing when it consists of a mere choice between being fleeced by a protec- tionist or free-trade expioiter. Our present statesmen will have to try again or else other issues and other men will lead the labor hosts in 1888.” — Wheeling Around the World. Los ANGELS, CaL., August 25,—Fred. E.
